About this cottage rental

Great, large, rustic 2,000sf waterfront cottage (all but lake room built in 1910) includes four bedrooms, 1 full and two half baths, a very large lake/sun room on the water, fieldstone fireplace, plenty of land for privacy (almost 1/2 acre), private road, great fishing, dock, water sports, and sunsets.

Heated with forced hot air propane furnace (or fully functional fieldstone fireplace :0)) for chilly nights. Summer amenities include rowboat, three kayaks, paddle board, pedalboat, canoe, and a couple boogie boards with plenty of life jackets and water shoes. Boat ramp, dock, two fire pits, and almost a half acre of land for privacy and some lawn games. Fast WiFi (50 mps), 40” Smart/Roku TV (no cable - just internet), ping pong table and other games for indoor times. Great place to relax, have fun or both.

First floor is all on one level making it easy access for those who have trouble walking (but fairly narrow doorways make moving in a wheelchair challenging). Not even one step up to enter. Two bedrooms on the first floor - one with a queen, one with a double bed.

Second floor is a converted attic with drop down attic stairs and has two bedrooms with a small half bath/wash closet, new flooring and a total of three twin beds per room. AC units upstairs if things get too hot.

It is an older, rustic cabin on the lake. It's not a sparkling clean condo in the city. That said while it's not perfect and has some uneven floors and other imperfections, it's a great, big place with a newly drilled well, some new windows, new floors in many rooms, some new ceilings, updated bathrooms, paint, new roof, furnace, etc. and plenty of space for two families.

One of the last places at the end of a dirt road wide enough for one car with cow/horse pasture across the street. Enough parking for at least six vehicles. Well-behaved dog(s) okay (no animals allowed on furniture please. If they’re prone to go on furniture they wouldn’t be allowed - sorry).

To answer a common question... Water levels and swimmability (is that a word?) vary. May and June the water is normally high (no beach). Great for puting in smaller boats via the ramp (ramp is too steep for largers boats but convenient launch just down the bay) - nice but cold water. Late June the water starts to warm up and swimming is great. July is normally ideal - usually still not much of a beach but warmer water. Beginning of August is also normally good but things will start to get more weedy and towards the end of August water levels will drop making it more difficult to put a boat in using the ramp (marina with access down the street) exposing a rocky beach, and by the end of August and into September weeds are prevalent which would require putting on life jackets and going into deeper water to avoid them.

We provide all paper products, bed linens and bath towels. We also live 25 minutes away and are available for any questions, etc.

About 30 minutes to Burlington, VT, 90 minutes from Montreal, 40 minutes from Smugglers Notch Resort and 15 minutes from St Albans, VT shopping.

NOTE: We have a supply of disinfectant and everything will be thoroughly cleaned/disinfected between guests.

We always try to find a place off the beaten path a bit, and this cabin was absolutely perfect! The cabin was exactly what we were looking for, and we couldn’t have had a better stay. The cabin is equipped with everything you need, and we enjoyed utilizing the kayaks, paddle boards, and floats. This is a great lakeside cabin for family fun! Sean, the host, is extremely responsive, and he checked in to make sure everything was ok! We would love to come back in the near future.

This is an old camp on a nice bay in Lake Champlain. Plenty of water toys for the kids, lots of bunk space for them. The room overlooking the water is really lovely! As it says in the listing, this is not a pristine rental property. The rustic log cabin element of it is pretty cool. Renovations have been ongoing and the house is a little unfinished in places or needing a bit of care. That said, we were very comfortable with four kids running around it and a dog. The location is private and quiet. The host was very responsive.

I had a great time at the Sunset Cabin with My Family. Sean was a great host and was there when i showed up early on Saturday and showed me around to let me know of all the amenities the cabin had. My family and i enjoyed the sunsets directly from the back room. It was plenty spacious enough for all 10 of us. Upstairs was spacious enough for all my kids and they had a great time being together upstairs. Stairs up questionable but i had no issues going up and down with the kids all week. Close to any store in St Albans but far enough away that it still felt like a retreat. All in all i would give the cabin a great get away experience and i can't wait to book again next year. Thank you Sean for lending us your cabin for a week!!!

This cabin is very rustic as described in the listing. The lake was beautiful and the cabin is conveniently located close to Burlington, VT and Montreal. A couple of things could be improved. A dock and covered outside porch or deck. I would also recommend a window unit ac for the hot summer months.The owner was very responsive and available for any issues .

Sean was an excellent host and prepped the house before our stay. It’s definitely rustic and an older lake house but we knew that with the listing and everything worked out great. We even got to use the fireplace which was nice for this fall visit. It’s right on the water and surrounded by farmland.
