About this cottage rental
Come see, play and stay at beautiful Lake Bomoseen, Vermont's largest lake!! When you stay here at our beautifully curated, renovated cottage you will enjoy your inside experience as much as your outdoor experience. Grand on a tiny scale. Our home is unique, warm and elegant, fully equipped, yet still evolving. The property itself imperfect, but nestled into a cliff with a sweet firepit which offers wonderful views and privacy. From almost every room, beautiful lake views. Although a stretch, one of the reasons we bought this quirky property was because it reminded us of our travels to the Amalfi coast: steep cliffs, fast cars and a short trek to the water....IYKYK.
Our home is well situated. It has lake access, a private dock and two kayaks for your enjoyment (must wear life jackets). ( Dock is not set up for motor boats) Its walking distance to the LakeHouse Restaurant and Crystal Beach, a mile from the Taproom at LB Restaurant and Neshobe Beach. A kayak ride from all of those as well as Bomoseen State Park. 7 minutes to the town of Castleton, 10 minutes to the train station, 20 minutes to Rutland, 30 minutes to Middlebury, 40 minutes to both Killington and Okemo/Jackson Gore ski areas. Or as we say in Vermont right around the corner.
There are daily and weekly boat and jet ski rentals available (boating license required) at the Woodard Marina located right on LB.
For those looking for other Vermonty adventures, there are: local farms, golfing, wineries, hiking, biking, horseback riding, berry picking, theatre, art, funky random museums and rail trails.

The house was very nice and had a great private boat dock and a wonderful fire pit area. We really enjoyed our stay and had a great visit.The only downside was the highway between the house and the dock. Traffic moves quickly along the road, and pulling out of the driveway can be a little challenging at times. Other than that, we had a great experience and enjoyed our time at the property.

Everything about this rental process and our stay exceeded our expectations. Wonderful beds and linens, comfortable furniture, records. So many nice touches. We felt very welcomed and comfortable. Everything was very clean and we enjoyed the complimentary coffee and treats. Great location, quiet, and a beautiful view of the lake from the cottage. Hosts were super responsive and helpful. I loved reading about what previous guests had enjoyed during their stay in the welcome book in the cottage. It spurred ideas for us. We look forward to visiting again.

House is cute and well appointed. The access area and getting the keys was full of cobwebs as was the rooms in the property. The access to the lake is down the fairly steep drive to a busy road that circumnavigate the lake which you cross and climb over the metal street barrier in order to get to the lake And dock area. We found it to be challenging and less than safe. The listing states a walk to the restaurant, but there is no walkway/sidewalk and I would highly recommend not walking on this road to get to the restaurant. When we arrived, there was a smell as if an animal died in the walls.IYKYK the screen doors for front and back doors were a design I have never seen before, but requires some getting used to. Why not just have a regular screen door? We did not stay for our whole booking due to the smell.
