A truly delightful stay! Can’t say enough good things about the house, the setting, the owners and the location. We rented the home for one week to hold a special family gathering with our 2 daughters and sons-in-law. From the start, the owners, Peter and Kathryn, offered us early check-in, as soon as the property was made ready once the previous occupants vacated. And, on departure allowed us a later check out so that one of our sons-in-law could attend to an unexpected work-related emergency. During our stay, we reached out to Peter on a couple of needs and he was immediately responsive, kind and understanding.On arrival, the home and surrounding grounds were immaculately clean and ready for us. The home equipment from bedding to cutlery, to pots, pans, dishware, etc. were all high quality and abundant; we lacked for nothing on that count. The interior and exterior spaces of the house were ample and the furniture comfortable and in excellent condition. All six of us had all we could ask for to rest, relax and enjoy each other’s company. The exterior amenities, especially the jacuzzi and fire pit enabled great times together, enjoying the gorgeous views and beautiful, surrounding natural landscapes. And, of course, the lake right in front of us was a main draw. Starting with the expansive view of it from anywhere in the back of the home, the lovely hills on the other shore and the sunsets, we all agreed this was a major asset to add further to our enjoyment!

My family of twelve (ages ranging from 10-78) spent a wonderful week at this house. The kitchen and bathrooms were well stocked making packing lighter while the attention to cleanliness and decor made it cozy. There was plenty of seating areas indoors and out. The variety of water vessels and outdoor games available was great and the trampoline was the biggest hit with the kids. Check in was easy and the location was convenient for a lovely ferry ride to Vermont or a day of adventure at Ausable Chasm.

Our recent stay at this property was very memorable, primarily due to its stunning views of the lake. Waking up to such a beautiful panorama each morning was a highlight and the backyard provided hours of fun whether sitting on the deck, enjoying the expansive grassy area or using the watercraft that was available for our use. The host was very easy to communicate with and was extremely helpful in providing a thorough and detailed list of local restaurants, sights and activities to enjoy during our stay.However, there were a couple of aspects that impacted our experience. We were not told ahead of time that the home is on a septic system and guests are requested to flush only when absolutely necessary. This was a constant consideration throughout our stay.Additionally, It felt like there was a significant amount of work expected from us upon departure, especially given that a cleaning fee was charged. Here are some of the items that we have never before been expected to do when renting a VRBO::Sweep or vacuum the floors, wash if there were any spillsWash and fold all towels usedStrip beds and put on a new set of bed sheetsThere are two cutlery drawers, put the right cutlery in the right drawerClean any crumbs from pantry, cupboards & drawersOverall, it is a beautiful location and wonderful amenities, but future guests should be aware of the septic system's limitations and the detailed departure cleaning requirements.
6 / 10Average·Oct 2018
I must say that the view is quite impressive. It is a nice and quiet setting and there is not a lot of traffic on this street. When you look at the images of this house on Zillow and see what it is today - to say that it there has been a substantial improvement, would be an understatement. Peter was accessible and easy to work with.
I have rented homes quite a bit through VRBO and Home Away and am used to paying this amount of money for a weeks stay. The price was not an issue except for the fact that the home lacked some of the fit and finish that you would expect for that kind of money. The upstairs living room area and loft area are renovated and beautiful. The downstairs bedrooms did not have AC and were humid. The upstairs hall bathroom is still original and needs to be updated. I hesitate to say these things because I know that Peter and his wife are continually upgrading and making improvements.
I do not normally leave reviews but I would have loved to read the facts about some of these issues. I think others would want to know.
Still worth it because of the view? Yes, but I will probably wait for more upgrades before I go back...
