Great lakeside house to view the eclipse
We booked 2 nights to view the eclipse lakeside and it did not disappoint! The photos online, although quite beautiful, do not fully capture the beauty of this place. Gorgeous views overlooking the Vermont mountain range and lake Placid. The house is well appointed with everything you need, small exception of the coffee maker. Our guests did feel comfortable with the cleanliness. Suggest maybe an upgrade to a Kureig. Other than that the property is a 10 out of 10. There are two access points to the beach which are indeed private and you will have it all to yourselves. Given the season, the water was high so beach area on both sides is small. Firepit area was wonderful, we loved hanging out by the fire at night watching the sunset. Kitchen allows for cooking for a crowd. The property feels remote but there is plenty of commerce in the area to visit Burlington downtown, grab coffee, items at the general store. We enjoyed burgers at Rozzi’s Lakeside tavern prior to check in. Was allowed to check in early and was notified via text. I did need to check with Vacasa the day before for the check in- keypad codes due to not receiving email. They were very prompt to respond. Overall, lovely home with great views and access to water. Not an issue for our party, just know that stair access to the fire pit and water is steep. Maybe not the best for small children or senior guests

Great house. Main fl bathroom sink clogged. Washer smells. Otherwise, beautiful house and location, worked out great for our needs. We would stay again. Consider a later standard check out time and providing more essentials for longer stays.

Cabin with a view
Our group, two couples, stayed at the property in Oct. 2023. Upon arrival, the views of the lake were amazing. The house sits very close to the water, so there is a view of the bay at nearly every window. The kitchen is well equipped. The master bedroom is spacious, with again, a breathtaking view of the water. The king bed is not great, the mattress clearly needs replacement. The foam sags significantly, which makes it uncomfortable. We had a bonfire one night and drove into Burlington the second night for dinner. It is a great location, many local attractions. We recommend walking/biking the Lake Champlain causeway, that was very beautiful.

Vermont leaf trip
The house is amazing. The view is spectacular. The housecleaning needs improved. It’s such a shame to have such a nice place and not have it clean. Cobwebs everywhere, coffee pot filthy and still full of coffee, outside not touched, rodent trap used as a door stop, shower curtain covered in mold. Upgrade the cleaning and the place would be perfect

Great location but not for large parties or older guests
The location was really outstanding. The view of the lake was beautiful and the house was a short drive to Burlington, which was a highlight of the trip. However, the house was listed as accommodating 10 guests but there was only one king sized bed in one room and the other 8 sleeping accommodations were spread into two rooms all in various bunk bed configurations with a single bathroom for 8 people. The hot water supply was also not sufficient in that bedroom area for 8 people nor was there sufficient parking. The outside access to the house is also tricky at night and the house wad certainly not handicapped accessible inside or outside.

Great home for our family. Might be tough with little kids or the elderly as there are many stairs to get to the house and then to the water. Other than that, awesome lake house!

Right on the lake!
Loved being at this beautiful property- went fishing one day on the lake. Enjoyed hearing the small waves crashing sound right out our window. Beautiful sunsets over Lake Champlain also! Like the others said the outside could use some tlc but inside was clean and had everything we needed to cook some meals in the house. The house also has some games for rainy days and also Pac Man!

Graduation Weekend
This was the perfect landing spot for us to celebrate our son’s college graduation. The home was comfortable for our family and a nice gathering spot to host others —- lovely layout, plenty of space, teen friendly with ping pong/games, indoor/outdoor dining, and beautiful sunsets to see. The waterfront setting was a bonus feature. Vermont in the spring is a must do for everyone!!!

Beautiful lakeside getaway
Beautiful house in spectacular location -- views out across Lake Champlain to the Adirondacks are amazing in all weather. Easy walk to shale beach, which our dog loved. Easy 15-min drive to downtown Burlington. Used canoe, which is clunky but serviceable, and bikes -- one of which was unusable due to bad tire, so we rented in Burlington, and Vacasa refunded cost. Would definitely stay there again.

Great location - exceeded expectations
This house is in a special location on Lake Champlain and is extremely well kept and tidy. The house is more spacious than it looks in the photos and the proximity to Burlington while keeping the feeling of being "away from it all" is perfect.

Nice place
I was a little surprised to find only window units in the bedrooms. The kitchen and living area was always too hot. Also disappointed that the lake is only 2 feet deep for 100 yards. There were 5 working chairs outdoors, the rest were broken. Sunsets were phenomenal. Everything worked. It was great but hot gathered around the kitchen island I would rent again later in the season but not during the summer. Well lit, property was very secure.

Great views and privacy were a highlight of this property.
The property was on it's own peninsula so it was very private. The inside was comfortable, uniquely decorated, and there was plenty of room. We watched gorgeous sunsets over the Adirondacks while sitting on the deck, waded out in the water of Lake Champlain, played ping pong in game room, took walks, and rode our bikes on the nearby causeway. It was obvious that the owners are working to make the topography of the land less of a challenge. The only negatives were that there could have been more cookware and microwavable plates and when we arrived the cleaning company hadn't come. However, after a quick call to Vacasa, they immediately sent a team to remedy the situation.

College graduation get together
The house itself is lovely! The views of the water are spectacular from most of the home! I would have liked to have received the check in code the day before at least just so I knew we were all set. I had written VRBO twice asking for an early check in and I received no reply. (I ended up calling and the woman I spoke to was very nice.). It’s a little difficult walking down to the house from the parking area but the house is well-stocked and exceptionally clean! We enjoyed lovely family dinners in the dining room looking out at the water.

great place to stay
property was in a great location, even in the winter. Unfortunately with the snow and ice, it was very difficult to get back and forth to the cars. One path was well shoveled and sanded but pretty steep, the other path was angled, rocky and not shoveled or sanded very well. It was a bit sketchy so I shoveled a little bit to help out. Interior of the house was great. We loved the ping pong table and the open floor plan. It was very cozy and comfortable. We plan to return next year on the second weekend in February.

College Drop off and visits
Was looking for a place to stay with my teenagers and their friends as we did college drop off and visits at University of Vermont. This house was very convenient to downtown Burlington (15 minutes) while being in a beautiful setting on Mallett’s Bay. Although it was winter we enjoyed the sunrise over the lake, the peace and quiet of the area and going down to check out the icy lake. The house was great for people to spread out. Plenty of sleeping room. Nice to have the master on one side of the house and other bedrooms on the other side. Great lounge space for the kids to hang out at night. Well appointed and nice bathrooms. Would love to stay Here again in the summer to really enjoy the lake location.

The house was amazing. The rocky beach was great as well— the water was shallow so far from out the kids and I could walk until we could barely see someone on the shore. It was perfect.

Lovely home with amazing view and sunsets
This was a great spot. We just had a couple of minor issues, but nothing that made our stay anything less than special. First, I wish I had known that this property was right on the road. I had a Labrador with me and I had no good/safe place to walk her to do her business. Thankfully the road was not super busy as that is where we walked. There was another place that I had been looking at that accepted dogs and would have been better from that perspective as they were at the end of a road and had a yard. Also, my parents who are in their 80's stayed here and the only glass ware they had were mason jars (or coffee mugs). That was pretty big and heavy for my mom's hands. We went out and bought something they could use more easily. Also, the kitchen was VERY basically supplied and the "sharp" knives were duller than dull. I went got a sharp knife because their's were like butter knives. We made do, but I was a bit disappointed. I also own a rental property serviced by Vacasa and VRBO and feel like my place is far better equipped. There was also only one roll of toilet paper for each bathroom. All that aside, the home is beautiful and the view incredible. In the end it was the people (reuniting with family) that made our time super special and the rest was just a minor inconvenience. I would stay here and again and recommend it. (Side note, I never communicated with the property manager, so I can't really comment on that, but gave it a couple of stars just because it wouldn't let me leave it blank).

Beautiful home in a beautiful spot. Enjoyed the fire pit and walking along the edge of the lake. There weren’t 7 beach’s chairs but likely because we were there before the start of summer.

Nice Stay
The property is beautiful, very clean and well stocked. Our check-in was seamless. The view of the frozen lake was amazing and we had fun cross country skiing on it. Our dog enjoyed the lake as well. Communication with property owners wasn’t great but thankfully we didn’t have serious issues, just a broken teapot :) Overall we really enjoyed our stay and highly recommend this property. Just bring house slippers and warm robes because bathrooms are COLD!
