The property is located on a large cove providing protection from waves that can be present on Lake Champlain on windy days. The neighbor, Debbie, was very friendly and let us use her 2 kayaks and paddle boat. The property included 2 other kayaks we could use. The lake bottom is sandy and rocky so you may want water shoes. There were often ducks, geese, and heron (I believe) nearby or on the property in the morning/evening hours to observe. We enjoyed watching them, especially on the rainy days from under the covered patio. The house was very spacious with high vaults in the open common areas. It has comfortable beds and nice bathrooms, especially the master. The kitchen has a very large Island (lots of counter top space).
