We spent a week here with 4 adults, and 4 teens. It was awesome! Jim was super friendly and helpful. The old house layout is a little wonky, as to be expected of an old home but we loved the charm of it. We were welcomed by a handwritten note, fresh flowers, and a bottle of wine - all unexpected nice touches! We spent most of our time down by the water using the kayaks, canoe, and paddleboard. Lots of chairs and the canopy for shade made it our favorite spot. The views were incredible from the house, too. A couple times we could have used more life jackets but made it work ok. The house is spacious and well kept. The comfy king beds were much appreciated by the adults! Having USB outlets on the lamps was helpful. The kitchen is small but very functional and beautifully renovated. The only minor disappointing thing was that the downstairs shower shower liner needed to be cleaned. It is a very narrow shower/tub and would have been more enjoyable with a curved shower rod so it feels wider. The water pressure was great though in that bathroom. The upstairs shower pressure wasn't as good. The house had plenty of beach towels for us all. There are lots of games in the cabinet. We made good use of the washer and dryer and appreciated having detergent available. We recommend checking out Buttermilk Falls, Green Mountain Sugar House, Plymouth Cheese, Calvin Coolidge Historic Site, Thunder Falls, and Off the Rails while you're in the area.

We love southern Vermont and have stayed in the area many times. But this was our first time staying at Jim’s home. It was the perfect space for our annual family vacation. The location could not be better and the view is spectacular! It looks out at the whole of the lake and you can see the water from most of the house as well as the wonderful front porch. We played many games of Yahtzee at the dining room table - another great view of the lake. Jim is a very thoughtful host, welcoming us personally and with a bottle of wine. The house was well-stocked with all the sundries - plenty of soap (laundry, hand, dish), paper towels, toilet paper, tissues, garbage bags, etc. unlike some places we’ve stayed. It’s a steep path down to the beautiful lake area. If you are concerned about mobility, make sure you talk with Jim. The lakefront is stocked with great amenities including a pedal boat, kayaks, and stand up paddle boards. The renovated kitchen was a great place to cook and the renovated bathrooms were very nice. We had a 9 month old with us and the house worked well for her too. My only advice is that the road in front is a busy one so you’ll want to keep an eye on younger kids when they are crossing to the water. Thank you, Jim, for a wonderful visit! We hope to return!

This was a great place to stay for a post-flood Ludlow vacation. We wanted to support the area that has so much need right now and we are glad we did. The home was great for our family with two nicely renovated bathrooms and a well equipped renovated kitchen. Because the lake was unusable due to bacteria from the flood, we could not make use of the many boating options offered at this property, but there is a wonderful beach area where we sat admiring the unparalleled view! Easy access to Route 100 to Ludlow or north to Woodstock and beyond.

Magnificent view of Echo Lake - cars kept stopping to take pictures- and our very own beach to enjoy. Quaint home with plenty of room for our 7 people including two 2-year-olds. Our host could not have been more helpful. Great fishing, boating, and wonderful local sights. Don’t miss Buttermilk Falls

This house was prefect. Just a crossing to the lake. The best view possible for morning coffee, and water toys for all ages to enjoy. We swam or played on the lake for hours with a picnic lunch, even went out early for some fishing and caught a bass. Quiet. Relaxing and enjoyable vacation.
