We had a great stay on Lake Champlain. This VRBO is in a beautiful setting and was a wonderful spot for our family to spend time together during the holiday. The house is very modern and was well equipped to host our extended family of 10.

Lovely home with plenty of beds, large dining room table and lots of seating in the living room. Beautiful view of the lake and mountains out the large picture window. It rained all weekend so we did not spend much time in the deck.

A Fabulous Vermont location on lake Champlain. Great biking area.
It has been totally updated , wonderful beautiful wooden furniture and very comfortable beds. nice linen and towels provided.Very clean and well stocked with cleaning and paper supplies. We were 5 female friends all in our 60s. We had a wonderful very relaxing getaway. A few minor glitches with the brand new appliances… little to no ice in freeze/refrigerator seemed off not really cold . Both didn’t seemed to be working up to par. Stove only would go to Celsius temperature. Super hot. Could be dangerous high .
All and all . We had a wonderful time . Definitely an amazing spot and super accommodation .

We loved everything about this stay. The location, the lake front with dock for swimming and kayaking, the views and proximity to many State parks and Burlington. Beautifully renovated with spacious rooms, well supplied and appointed kitchen, huge deck for the sunsets and room enough to relax for everyone. Everything was thought of and our host couldn’t have been more helpful. Will return!

We were very happy to find this house on VRBO as we were doing all the cooking for family weekend at Button Bay Park. Quick drive to the park, well-stocked kitchen with two refrigerators, big covered front porch where we could "stage" all the coolers. All that +++ a great lakefront view!

This is a great property for a family of two adults and a bunch of children. It is not so good for 2 adult couples. The upstairs bedroom has no closet, the lighting is limited, the two other bedrooms with slanted ceilings has problems if you are in 5' 8" or taller. But the biggest downfall is that the upstairs bathroom with the slanted ceiling means you hit your head on the ceiling everytime you use the sink. You can only see from your chin down looking in the mirror. The steps to the upstairs are quite steep and the banister does not reach the doorway level, so you have to be extremely careful going downstairs, especially with luggage.
We had a major problem when we arrived. Our friend has limited mobility and there was no railing to help her get up the four steps to reach the porch, so she fell trying to get up the steps. HOWEVER, to his credit, the homeowner, Marty D'Onofrio, was able to get a handyman to the house the next morning, on Labor Day. He and I built a very sturdy railing that worked fine for the rest of our visit and we are truly appreciative of his immediate response!

This is a great house for a vacation. We had a great time with myself and my partner and my daughter and her partner and their 4 children. There was more than enough room for everyone, even on the 1 day that it rained.
The location is fabulous! It was quiet. The lake was quiet (not a lot of speedboat or Jet Ski traffic) and there was never any other noise from any neighboring properties.
The sunsets are stunning over the mountains.
Having the A/C in the property was a huge help this year. While probably most years it isn't needed, this year with the temperatures being so warm, it was fabulous to be able to have the house cool and dry.
Marty is very accommodating and helpful. VERY responsive to questions and suggestions about the local area. A great landlord!
All in all, a very comfortable and great getaway for us.
Thanks, Marty!

The views from the deck and living room area are spectacular and five-star! The house is spacious and was more than adequate for our family of five adults and two children. There were some concerns and issues, however, that lead me to give the property only three stars. First and foremost, the steps to the water either lack railings, lack railings on two sides, or have an unsecure railing. I did not feel safe for myself or the children. The bed in the master bedroom was old, uncomfortable, and very squeaky. The air conditioner right above the bed leaked a significant amount of water on the pillows. We appreciated having a/c throughout, but they were mostly installed in a slapdash way with duck tape (quite an eyesore). The a/c in the master bedroom actually had a cutting board wedged underneath it for support. I would have liked more information, like a welcome book, on how to use the TV, where to get groceries, favorite eating spots, etc. There were enough other small concerns to give this only 3 stars.

The property was fantastic! We had a few minor maintenance issues that Marty was able to resolve quickly and easily, which was a great relief during a busy trip for a conference at Middlebury. The beds were comfortable and the views were incredible.

Stayed 3/18-3/21
The house was lovely, fully stoked with everything you may need. Plenty of room for everyone to sleep. Pet friendly, we brought our 12 y/o 120lb German Shepard that spent most of his time on the deck enjoying the AMAZING view of the mountains. A cute country store is less than 5 minutes away for anything you may have forgotten. Marty was extremely accommodating and answered all my questions and concerns. We will definitely be back!

Great location
This house had an awesome location, was a good size, and had good amenities. However, the pictures of this property need to be updated. We wondered if we were at the right house until we went out back and saw the decks and the lake which were as pictured. The property also needs some maintenance and extra cleaning, especially the decks out back. Overall, we enjoyed our stay.

I can not recommend this property enough for larger families . The property is meticulously maintained and had everything a large Italian family who loves to cook could ever need. Marty, our host , was available 24/7 to answer any questions we may have had but to tell the truth we didn’t need to ask much because every detail was accounted for. The view is beautiful, water crystal clear and warm. We fished, we swam, we kayaked everyday and never ever was bored of the beauty around us. Thank you Marty and Lake Champlain for making our annual summer vacation another full of beauty, love and memories!!! And thank you for sharing your beautiful home!!!

We had a lovely time at this house. Marty was easy to communicate with, the house was clean upon arrival and the waterfront view was beautiful. We enjoyed time sitting on the deck and taking the kayaks out on the lake. Could not have asked for a better stay! Would highly recommend booking this property for your VT trip.

Awesome Lake House!
The Lake House had the best view of the lake with mountains in the background that I’ve ever seen. Our family spent every morning on the huge deck enjoying our coffee and mimosas. It was very quiet and peaceful and just so beautiful. The sunsets every night were stunning. We enjoyed floating on the lake and kayaking right from the property, and the guys fished right off the dock.
The house itself was great, big bedrooms, a very comfortable living room, and a great kitchen and dining area. Our group had 3 cars, and the parking in front of the house could have accommodated 4 cars.
Marty was a superb host, very responsive from the start of booking his property right through to after we left. We would definitely book this property again, I really miss that deck and gorgeous lake and mountain views !! Thanks, Marty, for the perfect vacation!!!
