About this house rental
Oyster Haven is a renovated circa 1830 farmhouse that combines vintage charm with all the modern conveniences, including a state-of-the-art gourmet kitchen with two ovens and an enormous central island perfect for large family gatherings.
Located on the shore of Lake Champlain, this immaculate and comfortable vacation home boasts an acre and a half of property that includes a deck, a large patio with a fire pit, and a grassy yard that stretches out to where stairs lead down to a private beach. With 250 feet of lake frontage, a dock, two kayaks, a canoe, a stand-up paddle board, and a mooring for those who wish to bring or rent a motorboat or sailboat, guests can find a whole host of outdoor activities without ever leaving the back yard.
Located very close to the Adirondack Mountains, enjoy hiking in the summer and outstanding skiing on Whiteface Mountain in the winter. The Fall also provides for breathtaking leaf turning color!
So much history in the area, with museums featuring the Revolutionary War and War of 1812. The portion of the lake off our back yard was the site of the Battle of Valcour of the Revolutionary War! Attractions nearby include Ausable Chasm with rafting (even white water), tours, and even rock climbing. The area has a winery tour and a current explosion of craft breweries to visit. We have a connection with The Valcour Brewing Company located in The Old Stone Barracks on the old Plattsburgh Air Force Base.
For those planning a wedding in the area, we are located right next door to the Valcour Conference Center which hosts year round weddings and receptions. Our home is a short walk to this venue and perfect for housing out of town wedding guests.

This rental was the perfect home base for our family in town for a celebration. We enjoyed ample space and comfort, making it easy for everyone to gather together. The two ovens and large dining table were especially useful for preparing meals. With a great location, fire pit, and grill, this home created a truly special occasion for everyone, and the play area was excellent for the kids.

Over all stay was nice, but a little pricy. The complimentary coffee was appreciated.

As spectacular as this lake house looks in the photos, it is somehow even better in person! We were a family group of 8 adults and 3 little ones. The house is immaculately clean, spacious, and thoughtfully furnished. The toddler play area was a huge bonus, with a great selection of safe, clean toys. We could easily all be in the kitchen for meal prep and family-style dining with gorgeous lake views; we also enjoyed many meals outdoors on the deck. The expansive lawn offers fabulous space for running and games, and the beachfront is navigable for all ages. Great location - Ausable Chasm right up the road, multiple hikes and bike rides nearby. Tim and Laura were courteous and responsive during the planning stage and right through our week-long visit. If we ever have the opportunity to return, we will!
