About this house rental

Located in Fairlee, this attractive house for $665 per night is a great choice for your next break. Steppingstone is a classic restored camp on the west side of Lake Morey. Can easily walk to Lake Morey Inn, Golf & Resort. The house is all on one level and is easily accessible via a fairly flat walkway from the road. Easy in and out with no major staircases to get to the house. House located on lakeside of road. You do not have to cross street to get to lake. The front has a lawn perfect for a lawn party or simply playing games with the children. Meanwhile if it’s lakefront access you want, simply go down the winding path of stepping stones in the back and enjoy lake living from the private dock. The house contains 2 bedrooms, living room, full kitchen, dining area, sun room, and two decks off of main house. Each of the bedrooms has its own bathroom, each with its own tub & shower. Keeping with the ambiance and serenity of the lake there is no TV … which guests have said is a blessing … as it leaves more time for reading, talking with your kids, playing games, or simply enjoying the outdoors. The mahogany wood deck off the sun-room provides an ideal spot for enjoying the lake view, reading, sun-bathing, barbequing, having hors d’oeuvres & cocktails, or outdoor dining as the sun sets. The private deck/patio off the master bedroom offers views of the lake and mountains. The property has parking for three cars. House is a short walk to public boat launch. Can rent boats at Fairlee Marine. Private dock available to tie up boat during your stay. To help protect the new floors, we ask shoes be left in the front entry area. Bedding and towels are provided. There is a full-sized refrigerator in the kitchen. There is a gas grill on the deck for your use, please replace the gas if you empty the container. All new pots and pans in 2022. There is an indoor fireplace that you probably won’t need in the summer. No smoking and no pets. We recycle everything. If you simply put all clean paper, plastic, glass and cans in one bag and other non-recyclable garbage in another we will take them to the dump. House is equipped with wifi. We require a 5 night minimum stay.

It was lovely to wake up to the lake views and to hang out on the deck. We enjoyed swimming off the private dock and going out in the two kayaks. As the description indicates, the stone steps to the dock are not for everyone. The rocks by the dock were wobbly, and that made it tricky to get the boats to the dock. We looked longingly at the wooden steps with railings that led to the docks of the properties on either side of this property. We cooked a few evenings and found that the kitchen has all needed utensils but rather old pans (I know that might sound churlish, but the cracked non-stick surfaces on a few of the pans made them a potential hazard, so we didn't use them). There were only two beach towels provided for four of us, so bring some towels -- and some soap for the showers. The room distribution made for good privacy for our group of adults, and there was plenty of room to socialize. We did enjoy the stay overall and just wished for a few upgrades. If you think "cabin/camp" and bring a few comfort items, you won't be disappointed.

We loved our week at Stepping Stone! It is the quintessential New England lake house, with fabulous views of Lake Morey and its mountains. The pictures of the house are incredibly accurate, but do not do it justice. The house has a welcoming aura from the moment one opens the door on arrival with great views of the lake and many nice touches that make it a truly special place. The house is well equipped (you’ll find everything you need in the kitchen!) and is at the same time a perfect mix of comfy, rustic and elegant. We spent as much time as we could outdoors as well, and the furniture on the series of decks down to the lake and the dock made that all the more enjoyable. Ward is an excellent host who provided a wealth of background information and local hints and guidance about Lake Morey, Fairlee and the surrounding area. He was also incredibly responsive to our queries both before we arrived and while on site. We look forward to returning to Stepping Stone soon.
