Carver Cottage is only 20 ft from the water's edge and provides the infinity pool effect when sitting in the living room. You feel like you're surrounded by water - it's so close. The sounds of water splashing on the shoreline below lull you to sleep at night and during the day if you so please. Its proximity to the water with its spectacular views makes this property extra special.

The sun-filled open floor plan with lake and mountain views is hard to beat. The main living spacehas a heat pump for AC cooling in the warm months and taking the chill off in the fall. A full sectional couch plus additional seating are more than enough room for everyone to have a cozy spot to read or watch their favorite shows on the full size TV.

The house now has a 15 foot screened bi-fold door overlooking the lake. This allows unobstructed view from the dusks at dawn to the gorgeous western sunsets.

Dining is available at the island, the dining table or outside on the patio.

The house has two king bedrooms plus a daybed in the main living space. All linens, towels and pillows are included for your convenience.

Sandy bottom beach is also a rare find in the Champlain Islands. Shared swim raft for lounging. Paddleboard and kayak included. Pets are welcome although we ask that they are always supervised and not left home alone for long stretches.

This fully insulated year round cottage is so beautiful any time of year, you'll want to move to this quiet little oasis year round! Enjoy evening fires on the patio above the waters edge. Breakfast off the living room on the attached patio will be your dining room for the week if the weather cooperates. I can't say enough about the comfort of this house with its breathtaking western Adirondack views.

    location & home are beautiful!! my husband and i, and our two pups spent a few days here & absolutely loved everything about it. the house itself was well equipped with everything we needed and was close to lots of fun things to do - ideal location in every way!! we loved watching the sunset over the lake every night and the open concept windows overlooking the lake were amazing additions ... no matter where you are in the house you can see the water! our pups loved playing in the water and on the beach. we will absolutely be back!!

    The property was everything we had hoped for and more. Our dog had a blast playing in the water all day and we enjoyed exploring around the island. Deb was extremely responsive and we would absolutely stay here again!

    We had a nice time. Kayaking is my favorite thing to do. The dog enjoyed running on the beach. The keeper market was amazing. Everything we needed. We took the ferry to Plattsburgh which was fun and Plattsburgh was interesting. The sunsets are amazing with a great view from the fantastic window. Thank you.

    Truly a stand out property and excellent rental experience. Owners are responsive and have every need imaginable covered. And then some. Amazing lake views and access. They’ve gone above and beyond. Thank you for such a great experience!

    Loved the house, the location, the lake, the sunsets. Lovely peaceful area. Hope to be back. Only downside was we did not see Champ looking out at the lake from the back patio. :)

    We loved our stay at this charming home! The home was well-stocked with essentials and we had a very comfortable stay. The view of the lake cannot be beat, and we spent every night out on the patio with the fire pit. The hosts are easy to reach and helpful. We highly recommend this home.

    Lovely house on the shores of Lake Champlain. Spacious, comfortable, elegant, with all the amenities we needed to enjoy our vacation. We were able to kayak and paddle board from the property’s own landing. There’s an outdoor shower for convenience. Stunning sunsets, quiet time by the fire pit at night, napping in the hammock. Burlington downtown and Ethan Allen’s homestead are good places to visit. Shelburne Museum is less than an our away, and definitely worth a visit. Montreal is about 1.5 hours away, easy, pleasant day trip. Thank you Deb and Andrew for hosting us!
