Had a wonderful Christmas week stay! Enjoyed the changing views over the lake including a beautiful sunrise and after a fresh snowfall. The heater worked great, beds were comfortable and the amenities were complete.

The view is incredible! Close to Burlington without having to stay in the city!
Lovely place and a perfect size for our family of four and dogs. The view from this house is spectacular that we wished we came in the summer but, for a nice family getaway it was a gem. Stephanie was amazing she was great at communicating with us and let us stay an extra night since a snowstorm was incoming the day we were going to leave. Can not recommend this place enough.
Very cute and clean stay outside of downtown Burlington. The beds were both very comfortable, and we appreciated the provided amenities. It was a quick 10-15 minute drive to downtown Burlington and 40th minutes to Waterbury (Ben and Jerry’s). I would stay here again and hope to bring my pup next time!
This was the most beautiful vacation I have ever had. Mallets Bay and the Harbor View Lakehouse was exactly what I was dreaming of.
Thank you to Stephanie
Stephanie was wonderful and very welcoming to our little family. The property was easily accessible to Burlington-15 min drive to everywhere, maximum. Easy access to the Causeway and great nearby food. The road next to the property is busy, but you don't notice it. Loved waking up everyday to the stellar view and cozy atmosphere.
View was amazing and Stephanie was great at providing suggestions for things to do. Another chair to two in the main living space would he an improvement.
Great stay close to the bike trail across the causeway and bike ferry. This is a beautiful ride water on both sides some wild wind. The cottage was beautiful, clean and tight on the water. It had a wonderful view of the mountains and sailboats. My 93 year old mom enjoyed the house. It was spotless with comfortable beds. It is on a busy road so if your a light sleeper pick the very quiet room downstairs. It was nice to have kyaks available.
Cozy, comfy, with everything a traveler could want, located right on the shoreline of a small marina. I especially appreciated how absolutely immaculate the entire cottage is. There are two bedrooms - we stayed downstairs because it's bigger with a lovely view. A note for mobility issues - the curving stairs down are pretty steep, so the main floor/upstairs bedroom would be the better room. Stephanie was very welcoming, kind, and responsive. We couldn't have asked for a better experience!
Lovely view, wonderfully appointed house. It’s very close to the road which wouldn’t have been a problem but the night construction was bright and loud. Earplugs and using the basement bedroom helped a lot ! I would not hesitate to rent this lovely home again. I will though check to make sure no construction is scheduled. I’m sure it was a one time thing.
Weve stayed in this area for years, but this is our first time at this property. The house was as advertised and very clean and well appointed. With a bedroom and bathroom on each level it really nade the most of this snaller home, as we each had our own spaces. The kitchen quite literally had everything, we def overpacked because you never know, but i couldnt think if a thing missing. The house is very close to the road so i dud feel uneasy at times with my dog, and their def is noise, but nothing too bad. The outer grounds are also nice with kayaks and paddle boards to use. If i had some requests it would be to add outdoor seating or adirondack chairs as there wasnt anywhere to be comfortable and read. Id also have prefered tvs in the bedrooms and at least an extra chair or additinal seating in the living room. But thats just wish list stuff. Everythibg was great as is. And the wifi let me use my ipad as a tv when laying down. I definitely recommend this place if you are a single, couple, or two friends. Its small, but just the right size, cozy and well decorated and clean. Our dogs had a blast and its close to markets, stores, ice cream, bike paths, burlington winooski and geabde isle.
This property has an amazing view. sits right on the water over looking the boats. Would stay again. brand new adirondack chairs by water which is a nice touch. outdoor blackstone to use.
Everything was top notch! Super clean and well appointed with a spectacular view over Mallets Bay, this was a wonderful place to have as a home base while exploring the area. Check in was a breeze and the hosts were incredibly friendly and helpful. The spiral staircase down to the lower level bedroom may be a challenge for those with limited mobility but we had no problems with it. The bedroom on the main floor is easily accessed. WiFi and television worked perfectly, the kitchen is fully equipped, and the beds were fresh and comfortable. We would definitely stay again!
