Garden Island's Maple
Our calendar is updated in real-time & our nightly rates are accurately displayed. Simply enter your desired dates and click 'Book Now!'
If you're escaping to Vermont, do so in classic New England style at this five-bedroom cottage on Garden Island, a private island in Lake Champlain's Converse Bay that offers a truly unforgettable vacation setting. Maple is a stately Victorian that was built over a century ago, offering such wonderful details as original fireplaces and wood-paneled walls and floors, all restored with love and care. You'll enjoy access to the island's lakefront beach, nearby trails, as well as boats (a kayak, a canoe, a paddle boat, and two paddleboards) to take out on the water, allowing you to live out your summer dreams of Vermont with ease.
At night, this 12-room home has accommodations for 11 guests. There's one bedroom with a king bed on the first floor, as well as four bedrooms upstairs, offering a king bed, a queen bed, a double bed, and three twin beds, respectively.
This lakefront cottage is located on the shores of Garden Island, a private, ferry-serviced island that has been family-owned and operated since 1973. It's the perfect spot for a quiet week away, a family reunion, or a relaxing weekend with friends and family. Here in Lake Champlain's Converse Bay, you can spend your days kayaking, canoeing, sailing, paddle boating, or simply splashing in the cool water on the island's beach. There's a gazebo on the grounds, several picnic tables for al fresco lunches, and a number of walking paths to explore nearby.

The fireplace in the dining room does not work (but there are fireplaces in the main stairwell and the living room).
