Great getaway
Great stay...loved all the wood. Great view. The only thing i wished they would have done was snow plowed the driveway (or shoveled it).

Location, location, location!
Rustic house (cabin?) with a nice log cabin like feel on the inside. It's an older home (1950) but served its purpose for our stay. Location is awesome, right on the lake at the end of a dead end road. Very quiet. Water is non-potable which wasn't in the listing we saw but wasn't a big deal. Just be aware and bring bottled water.

Needs some TLC
The lake and location are great, super quiet street. The house has more furniture now than pictured above, and as noted in older reviews the mattresses are all pretty new. That said, the bathroom/shower had lots of black mold and the kitchen sink had layers of mold/mildew in it. Also the windows leaked when it rained (it was pretty windy as well but there was water coming in through the bottom of the sill). Just needs some basic maintenance and better cleaning!

Great spot on the lake.
Exactly as described. Nothing fancy but clean and well stocked with everything you need. Amazing sunsets and plenty to do in the area. Wi-Fi worked great.

Great location!
This place was perfect for our mini vacation! Close to bike paths and within 20 minutes of Burlington and breweries! Would love to come back soon.

Lovely beach but hot water runs out fast
This was a nice location in a peaceful neighborhood, beautiful sunset views from the backyard/beach. The shower does run cold after 9-10 minutes, and we noticed some concerning stains on linens and seat cushions. Also this isn't really anyone's fault but the wind blowing bushes, etc. against the walls did keep us up some at night. A solid 4 out of 5!

Great views of the lake and sunsets. Just enough privacy. Conveniently located and quick access to Burlington. My kids keep asking “when are we going back to the lake?”

A few upgrades and this place would be great
It’s really simple. These people could throw a few thousand into this place and it would be 100x better. To start and probably the biggest thing is the mattresses. They are 1000 years old and unbelievably uncomfortable. Like really really bad. You’re better off sleeping on the floor. The trash in the house is kept in a closet. That closet isn’t fully enclosed and the top of it opens up to a bedroom. So, the first bedroom on the left will smell like trash. The living room furniture includes a wicker couch , and green chair with a leg rest and a broken recliner. The wicker couch is designed to be outdoors and was probably purchased around the same time the mattresses were. There is carpeting in the bathroom that’s looked like it’s been there since the house was built. I couldn’t believe it. Even around the toilet. Gross. The place was squeaky clean, that and the view out the back were the only positives to this place. New furniture, new comfortable mattresses and tile in the bathroom and this place would be great.
