Cozy cabin nestled on the shores of Lake Champlain

Welcome to the Champlain Chalet! Take advantage of all the lake and surrounding area has to offer from this cosy waterfront cabin with a private dock. As soon as you enter, you'll be greeted by unparalleled views from our 275' of direct lake frontage.

In addition to the usual rental season of May-October, we are now open to bookings for the winter season. Enjoy the off-season with ice fishing on the lake, snowshoeing on local trails and skiing at nearby peaks. Montreal is also a great winter day trip!

The Chalet’s ample living room features high ceilings, a charming wheel spoke chandelier and gorgeous stone fireplace. The open concept kitchen boasts brand new appliances and all the cookware needed to prepare great meals with local ingredients. There is a gas grill as well.

The master suite has a wing all its own with stone flooring and bathroom, all on the wrap around back deck that leads down to the lakeshore. Under the deck are two kayaks and a paddle board.

There is a guest room with full bed, as well as an additional full bathroom. There are two comfy couches in the living room, one of which is a queen pull-out, for additional sleep space if needed.

There are two desks, one in the living room and one in the master suite, for those who need to work while away. There's also a den featuring a large flat-screen tv and cushy seating.

Installed in 2022, there are two AC/heat pump mini split units to keep you comfortable no matter the season.

Installed in 2023, a new wood burning fireplace insert provides both warmth and ambience as we open the Chalet for winter bookings!

Dogs are welcome at the Champlain Chalet, and there are food/water bowls and pet beds for use. If bringing more than two dogs, please contact for approval.

This pet friendly home is situated on a quiet street. The dock is great for fishing, there are well maintained kayaks you can use and the view of Lake Champlain is amazing. Plenty of quaint farm stands and little restaurants. The tongue and surrounding areas offer short and long hiking trails. Burlington is only about 1 hour away if you are into shopping. Beds are super comfortable.

Cabin was nice. Could use a little TLC but overall we had a good stay. Probably need to bring some towels and washcloths. Only 2 sets per bathroom. Loved the views each morning from the deck overlooking the lake. Great place for morning coffee and evening wine We would definitely stay here again

We had a wonderfully relaxing time. The cottage is well-stocked and a short drive to the nearest convenience store. The view from the master bedroom was very difficult to leave!!!

Spent 9 nights here and thoroughly enjoyed ourselves! House was perfect for us and our two dogs. Quiet location, on the water, beautiful scenery...get up at least once to see the sunrise over the lake. Absolutely beautiful!Host is very responsive and easy to work with. The addition of the dock was great! My husband spent countless hours out there fishing. Caught some decent sized fish during our stay. Generally after being away, I'm looking forward to getting home to my mattress after sleeping on a rental home bed. That was not the case with this vacation. The mattress was SO comfortable!! A huge plus in my book. We cooked many meals here, the kitchen is well stocked. Great use of space with a really cool spice rack (well stocked as well). Did a lot of reading and the couches are very comfortable. Great location. We visited breweries in the area: Plattsburgh NY, Burlington VT and North and South Hero. We definitely plan to return and stay here again. Highly recommend!

Lakeside Dream!

Our stay was everything we hoped for. This lakeside experience was made memorable by a clean, spacious and well stocked chalet. The property was well maintained and the deck invited you to relax and enjoy Lake Champlain. The fruit tree grove hosted birds and small woodland creatures. We thank the host for sharing this lovely space with us.

Wonderful vacation spot!

The location and home were wonderful. The beds and furniture were comfortable, and all of the appliances were new and worked very well. It was quiet, peaceful yet still easy access to the freeway to visit Burlington. I recommend bringing some bottled water to drink (there is a slight sulfur smell in the pipes) and some birdseed to attract the birds outside!

Returning guest

We loved our stay last year so much we came back this year. Loved the upgrades- fire pit and fire place insert. Property was clean and well kept. The views were beyond beautiful. We tried the recommended Kraemer and Kin pub- delightful. Definitely a 5 star place. Love that it’s pet friendly. We will be back!

Beautiful cabin getaway

I’ve never wrote a review.. my family and I stayed in this wonderful cabin from June 1st to the 5th. As soon as we showed up we knew it was going to be a wonderful experience! The setting is just perfect, house is very very beautiful and quaint, area is quiet and calm. We will definitely be back and definitely recommend this place to anybody looking for a quiet fun lake experience. Lots of cool farm stands to get good quality food just about 15 minutes away. *****
