Total relaxation

Our stay was just what the doctor ordered. The only complaint is that we had to leave when our time was up...oh yes, we could have done without the rain.

A rustic cottage on an idyllic private island

Beautiful, serene, idyllic. BUT the cleaning service hired by Vacasa failed completely.

Lovely stay at Garden Island

We loved our stay on Garden Island. Its a beautiful small private island with several old homes on it, and a wonderful trail that circles around the island and passes through an old cedar forest. We stayed in the small cottage called Oaks, which is located beneaht a giant old oak. It's called the 'honeymoon cottage' but my husband and I were glad we weren't honeymooners as the tiny bedroom had two single beds. There is a futon in the main room, but one would have to move the kitchen table to make room for the futon. The cabin is very basic, but we enjoyed our stay because the setting is so lovely. Beautiful view out the window looking out over a small harbor.

A wonderful getaway

A cottage with lots of windows , surrounded by a porch , overlooking Converse Bay with sailors furling their sails, then unfurling them in the evening . Swims in cool water and walks along wonderful scenic trails.

Magical, unique island resort

Garden Island is a 30-acre island in Lake Champlain with 6 rental cottages. Our cottage was beautifully rustic and super-comfortable and well-appointed. We had a deck with a bay/island/harbor view, steps from the beach and boat dock. The owners are on the grounds, and are super-friendly and accommodating. The staff cheerfully provide everything you need, including boat rides back and forth to the mainland. (Very little of no wait time!) There's a gorgeous scenic trail around the island. The grounds are very beautiful and perfect for relaxing or exploring. We had a magical stay and we're sure we'll come back.
