We returned home to NJ from a lovely week at Camp David! The property, camp and town were a perfect getaway for our family ! Our children and spouses, grandchildren and dogs had a great week!! The beautiful deck with outdoor grill made for perfect dinners outdoors to enjoy the waterfront. The outdoor fire pit was nice too, to roast s’mores for the children . We thoroughly enjoyed the peaceful views anytime of the day . Life is better at the lake!! Maria and Don Hannis and family

Our family had an awesome week at Camp David. The view from the house and dock were amazing. The kitchen was well equipped. Awesome grill and deck. Loved having access to the dinghy and paddle board as well as a washer, dryer and dishwasher. All the comforts of home! The house is cozy with features that give it character. The six of us did fine with just one bathroom, especially because we utilized the super nice outdoor shower. Beds were comfy and clean, well water was fine! My only complaint is that you really can’t swim at this property. In order to swim you must take the dinghy out pretty far to a centralized dock. This wasn’t made clear in the online description. A huge disappointment for us. Watch out for algae blooms, specifically in this spot due to the shallow, slow moving water. We had 3 days that we couldn’t be in the water at all due to the blooms (we realize this is nature and out of the control of the owner). The amount of unnatural/metal debris in the water on either side of the dock made it so we did not feel safe wading in. Considering the steep price we paid, we were hopeful that the lake access would have been better.

What a view! Just a lovely little slice of lake house perfection.

We all enjoyed the wooded strolls and fishing at the house. Beautiful views

DO NOT STAY AT THIS PROPERTY. I had to leave early because of a severe rash. I was diagnosed with Sulphur Dermatitis after staying only for three days. I have been asking for a week now to get a refund for the days that I did not stay and have not heard from the owners at all. The whole house smells like rotten eggs. They need to get a filtration system installed on the water system which is very common for well water.

Camp David was a perfect little house for 4 adults. It is right on the lake- the views of the sunrise were amazing. Similar to other reviews- please beware this is probably only comfortable for 4 adults and a few children. The stairs are extremely small and tricky. The beds are absolutely horrible, the mattress' on all beds were about 6 inches. The kitchen had the basics, the coffee maker needed to be washed. The floors had dog hair all over them (we didn't bring a dog). You cannot swim in the water outside, it is too murky and shallow. A dingy and paddle board were included but we did not use them as it was a little chilly. We enjoyed having cooking in and having dinner at the large table. We did use the fire pit about 4 times. Please know there are SPIDERS everywhere on the screens in/out! The water had a foul mineral smell(luckily the VRBO rep texted us it was going to be fixed). We did not use the water to drink or brush our teeth, we brought our own. The shower curtain needs to be replaced ASAP. The house has some games and a good sized TV. Please note there is only 1 bathroom on the main floor!! Overall, We would rent again!

“Camp David” has many pluses. The deck Is wonderful. Sunrises are gorgeous. Keeping an eye on the boats coming & going is fun. The substantial dock & very protected bay worked well to tie up our boat. There are great dirt roads walks or biking. The owners have done a nice job of completely renovating the cottage which worked well for our 2 & 1/2 families. Be aware that the lakeshore in front of the cottage is not suitable for swimming .

I have rented places from VRBO previously and have been very happy. This property was advertised as newly renovated with swimming off the dock. I understand the structure was renovated but the inside was not what I expected or paid for. It hadn't been cleaned well. It looked as if no one had been there for a few weeks. All the beds and pillows were covered in plastic. The bedding was such that we used our own to feel comfortable. The kitchen was small with little storage space for our food. The cookware, glasses, silverware and utensils all need replacing. We found dirty dishes, pots and pans in the cupboards and had to wash the coffee pot before using. The furniture was old and worn. The bathroom fixtures and shower liner looked unclean. If the minerals in the water caused those stains, it would be important to share that information. There are sleeping areas throughout the 3 floors that, if all full, 13 people could have a bed. However, there is no way the living space, kitchen and 1 bathroom could accommodate that number. We had asked to use the kiddy pool. It was in the storage area. We had to clean that before using. The outside garbage bins were full. The water was murky at the shoreline with unnatural debris. The water off the dock was weedy with lily pads; no one would swim there. The owner did send the cleaning staff and offered to correct other issues. We are seasonal cottage owners ourselves and can appreciate waterfront upkeep. If all the above issues are dealt with, this property could be very nice. We liked the location and the view was beautiful. It was great for boating with a new deck and dock.

The house and location were lovely, however description wasn't quite accurate. It does sleep 9 but in very close quarters with only 1 bathroom. We had just 3 to 4 of us so it was comfortable - with more than that it might be difficult for privacy. The house wasn't totally clean when we arrived (although the owner asked the cleaning people to come and they did - but at that point we did the necessary cleaning - just a bit challenging as we are paying for the cleaning). There was a bag of rotting potatoes in the shelf where the pots and pans were - it took a while to find where the smell was coming from - we were just happy it wasn't an unwanted animal. I would also suggest to the owner to purchase tops to the pots and pans as we (and probably others) cook a lot and there was only one. I might suggest to the owner to equip the house with a few more amenities for the kitchen. The water near the house is not swimmable, mostly seaweed. We rented kayaks locally to get to a place to swim. The location is not 15 minutes from Burlington, it is at least 25 to 30 minutes w/o traffic. All that being said - we had a lovely time on the dock and enjoyed watching the movement on the lake. The weather was great too. With just a few changes this could be a great place.

This home was the perfect setting for our family of 6 and for what we were looking to do - spend quality time together, relaxing and playing on the lake, grilling and having bonfires, laughing and talking. This property is well kept and very private. Not being from the area, we were a bit surprised at the relative remoteness of the location, but there is just enough activity on the lake that we didn't feel alone. If you need groceries or to head into town for dinner out, plan on at least 20-30 minutes to get there; conveniences that you may be used to at home are a little further away than you think. The marina store just down the road doesn't have a large variety of grocery items, but most of what you'd need in terms of snacks, beverages, ice, etc. We weren't able to walk into the water due to the dense algae and weeds, but swimming off the end of the large dock was fine - would recommend some floatables. The Paddleboard is a nice feature and a fun way to tool around the lake and marina area. The home itself is unique - quirky upstairs level (as mentioned in a previous review, very narrow steps - better suited for the kids), but is clean and comfortable, has all the amenities you'll need. We never did find the community center (tennis, bocce ball, etc.), but there are plenty of paths (and dirt roads) to walk/hike. Biking would be fun here too. Overall, this was an excellent place to stay and would highly recommend it to anyone in search of a cozy, relaxing hideaway on Lake Champlain.

We had a wonderful week in this adorable home. We had everything we needed and were very comfortable. The view is great and location perfect. Our one note is the water had a strong sulfur smell. We live close by so were able to go home to shower and grab a Britta pitcher. Other than that, it was perfect!

As always an awesome experience.

Nice location on the lake and amazing property. Would definitely go back again

Great cozy lake house to stay in the summer (heating only in downstairs bedroom), mattresses and pillows could use some love, but we had a lot of fun!

Well kept lake house. Plenty of space for my husband and I and our three sons. The house was clean, well stocked with linens and kitchen essentials. Would recommend to anyone staying the area. Easy to get to Burlington, Stowe area and upstate NY.

We rented the cabin for 3 lovely weeks. The property manager and owner were very responsive to minor issues. The cabin has everything you need and Thompson's Point is a beautiful part of the world. The stairs to the upstairs bedroom are very narrow but not unmanageable. Would definitely rent again!

What a wonderful stay at Camp David! We had such a great time and we’re a little sad to leave. The house was clean, newly renovated and has all the appliances that you need to enjoy this amazing lake house! There were plenty space to sleep and each room had at least three fans. One bedroom and a living room had ACs so we were never hot and slept comfortably. We enjoyed our breakfasts and occasional dinners with the view on the lake. We spend numerous times sitting on the deck in the morning enjoying the sun. We had a few BBQs and sat on the deck watching the boats pass by. The house is located directly next to marina. We brought our own boat and enjoyed lake Champlain daily. We didn’t watch a TV at all but my husband wished it was bigger. But that’s a little minor detail.

We had a really nice time. It was obvious, it was recently renovated. I was told the cottage had a Keurig coffee maker. It had a standard coffee maker. I was not prepared for that. We stayed during a very hot week. Everyone had to sleep upstairs in living room. it was so hot. I had to get up several times during the night, and stand in front of the air conditioning unit to cool off. I feel the downstairs and upstairs need air conditioning units. Obviously, it doesn’t get that hot up there all the time. But, in case it does again. The main floor really needs a handrail for going up and down the stairs. A larger TV than 12” would be nice as well. It would’ve come in handy on our first day there. Considering, it was raining, and there was nothing to do. The lake is absolutely beautiful. We enjoyed that very much. It was relaxing sitting outside and looking out at the water. The cottage does have a beautiful deck. I would stay there again . Only, if they had more air conditioning units.
