Summary of reviewsGuests appreciated the amazing views, well-stocked amenities, and unique layout of the house. The host was communicative and accommodating, making the stay enjoyable and memorable.
8.0 / 10.0Excellent·Oct 2025
It was a wonderful rental for a reunion of old friends. The layout is a little. The layout of the house is a little wonky with the master bedroom, being the adjoining hallway between the larger part of the house with two bedrooms and one bath and the smaller part of the house with two bedrooms and two baths. The master Room had a bathroom with a tub and no toilet and a separate bathroom. All three parts of the house had separate entrances. The kitchen was adequately provided with a few essentials missing. The owner did go out of his way to make sure we had brand new coffee pots in each Area. Cannot say enough about the outreach from the owner when we sent him questions. The view could not have been more spectacular and the large lawn was available for hanging out or playing.

Kitchen was set up nicely.
10.0 / 10.0Outstanding·Oct 2025
The view is absolutely beautiful!!! Just gorgeous!!!The house is set up a little odd but I knew that from other reviews and the picture of the layout (which is very hard to make out online). The kitchen was not well stocked for cooking at all. And I’m not sure the person they are using to clean is doing their job completely. There seemed to be some missed areas and the grill was super dirty. One grill did not work at all. The host was so nice and kind. My husband spoke to him once and I spoke to him once as well. I would definitely stay there again if I’m ever in that area.
6.0 / 10.0Average·Aug 2024
Our family, including children and adults, had trouble finding a property on short notice for our desired summer get together on the Champlain Islands. This place seemed like a good deal but when we arrived we discovered it had many quirks. If you only need basic amenities and don't mind oddities, it might work for you. The washer/dryer and beach gear were useful, and the view was lovely. The kitchens were well appointed.
However, the property was not a "resort with hotel quality amenities" as described. Overflowing trash and a broken screen door greeted us. The layout was strange—the largest bedroom was located between two living areas so privacy was problematic. The BBQ didn't work, and despite contacting the owner, no repairs were made during our 5-day stay. The main dishwasher was also in disrepair when we arrived and was not repaired while there. The broken back door's glass was held by duck tape, deck parts were rotting, and a railing loose. The kitchen sink's hot water came out of the cold tap. Beds were not supportive.
The owner did offer us a free meal at a local restaurant as recompense for the appliances disrepair but we declined because we had already purchased ample food for our intended bbq (which we had very much looked forward to as central to the joys of our stay.) No contact info was provided for concierge, private chef, or massage as mentioned in guide. In summary the property is well priced for a large family but it was not as advertised.
