The apartment is nestled between two other residences, and is cozy and clean. There is a tidy kitchen with all new appliances, but you will need to come prepared with your own pantry essentials. There's a nearby side road that takes you on about a three minute walk to a small vista over the lake. There isn't a patio or any outdoor seating, but the location is perfect for exploring the Champlain islands.

Nestled in Vermont's serene northwest corner overlooking Lake Champlain, this retreat offered a peaceful escape. The area's natural beauty and tranquility were captivating as the trees were turning yellows and reds. The retreat, akin to a well-equipped hotel room with a kitchen, was conveniently located for water access and island exploration. The vintage farmhouse and barn added charm, while ample parking, hot showers, and a jacuzzi tub ensured comfort. We made pancakes in the morning, complete with Vermont maple syrup, in the tiny kitchen equipped with an induction stovetop and small convection oven.

Johnna was such a great host. She met us upon arrival and brought extra pillows when we asked for them. Lovely efficacy with all the basics. Clean and quiet. Baby Max , the dog, is just adorable.
