Quaint lakeside property in a residential area so it feels very nice. The house is very nice with all the amenities you need. The layout and the style of the house is great. You need a car but it is very close to many wonderful places!
My family had a wonderful stay in Colchester. We loved the house, the view of the lake was incredible. My kids loved it so much they want to rent it every year! Great recommendations from the hosts for restaurants and hiking in the area. We loved the move theater - and had a great night going to the drive-in movies a few miles down the road! We will be back!
Our family thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The kids loved the theatre room and their time by the water. The house was clean and the host was very responsive and easy to work with. Would recommend highly for families visiting the Burlington/Colchester area.
This is a beautiful, clean house located right across from Mallett’s Bay. We had a great time with our 3 teenagers. There’s a few things about the house that are helpful to know: 1. The kitchen is incredibly well stocked with great appliances and everything you need to serve meals. 2. The master bedroom suite has a barn door, which means it doesn’t lock. The bathroom also has a barn door, which means it doesn’t lock and you don’t have full privacy. There’s also a vent in the master bedroom that goes right to the basement area. Every sound travels. So if you’re looking for privacy in the master bedroom, it’s hard to get. 3. The lake is across a street and then you have to walk down 3 flights of stairs to the water. There is a tiny sliver of sand that serves as your “beach”. We had a ton of fun sitting on the chairs, kayaking and my son learned to SUP, but if you’re looking to lay out or have a sandy area, it’s not here. Kylie was very responsive and wanted to know how to make it a great experience. We had a really fun time at this property and as long as you know about the above, you’ll have a great time.
Great place to stay, 20 min drive to burlington, beautiful lake views and comfortable beds. Movie theatre room did not look like advertisement however this did not disrupt our stay.
We really enjoyed our stay. The location of the house was very convenient to both Mallet's Bay (across the street) and Burlington. We were able to enjoy the beach access, the kayaks and paddle board. The theater room and Pacman machine is a great touch for those with little kids (we had our 6 year old with us). The beds were comfortable and the linens were clean and of quality. We would definitely stay here again.
Great location and view!
We loved our stay at the house. It was clean, fit is well & the host was very in-touch. Vermont is a special place & we enjoyed exploring the area on various day trips to Burlington, Stowe, Shelburne & the islands.
Beautiful property right on the bay. Beautifully updated amenities, plenty of room and very comfortable. We loved spending time relaxing in the water at the private beach while feeling right at home. Highly recommend this property. The owners were very responsive and attentive and take great care of the house.
There is a lot of love and creativity put into this property, which is almost finished being renovated. We loved the lay out and the location of the property on the lake. Some challenges with our stay included: messages from the app let us know the property was ready when it was not, master shower water not turning on and not hearing from the host until the end of the day - we eventually got one of four pieces of the shower to turn on, ants in the home. When we corresponded with the host, they were kind and apologetic.
Big house, lots of room.
My friends and I had an awesome time here! So close to Burlington to shop and go out. Also really close to a bunch of amazing hikes which we were able to bring my dog Arlo on!
The house was clean and well stocked with the usual necessities and more. The host was very responsive. The view of the bay was wonderful, from the watching the sailboats to the beautiful sunset.
