The house if perfectly set up for two sets of adults in the upper floor bedrooms and kids in the downstairs bunk room.

There's, a custom vermonter-made dining table that seats 10 comfortably, and a living area that opens onto the enormous deck with endless views of Malletts Bay and Lake Champlain. Downstairs, is a recreation area with a pool table, fireplace and couches for watching DVDs on the flatscreen TV, or playing board games on the large ottoman.

Bring your fishing poles as our peninsula offers multiple spots for casting.
Fall: located on 7 private acres with endless views of the Lake Champlain and front row seat to the spectacular colors of the changing leaves and stunning sunsets. The paddle boards, kayaks and canoe are still accessible through mid-October although the lake starts to get chilly.
