Some of the most beautiful sunsets you've ever seen await at this five-bedroom home in North Hero, a waterfront escape scenically situated on the shores of Lake Champlain. Enjoy a private dock, a canoe and kayak to take out on the lake, and an incredible variety of at-home entertainment. This two-story home was designed for vacationing families, with lakefront grounds that include a private swimming pool, a beach volleyball court, a hot tub, and a play structure with a swing set for your little ones.

The home's interior provides a wonderful sense of brightness and easy modernity. Anchored by a gas fireplace with a floor-to-ceiling hearth, the great room has plentiful seating, a large dining table, and an open view of the kitchen with its two-toned cabinets and stainless steel appliances.

The pool house was also a great place for the teenagers to play ping pong and Xbox. BUT … I inquired about what type of coffee maker was in the house and was told it had a k-cup machine. It did not… it had a drip coffee maker and a n espresso with one pod and no place in North Hero to buy supplies! The cleaning service left one dish towel, one garbage bag for a six night stay, NO dishwasher pods for the dishwasher, only one wash cloth in one of the bedrooms. Other than that it was a great place for a family vacation! ##### Pam F. Stayed 6 nights in Jul 2023 This review comes from a trusted partner site and has not been verified. ### 8/10 Good #### Amanda C. 4 Aug 2024 #### Beautiful view and lots to do Our extended family found lots to do in and around the house. The kids adored having their own space with plenty of room to play on the top floor. The pool and hot tub were clean and functioning though frogs also seemed to enjoy hopping in the pool overnight. Ping pong in the pool house was great. The yard was big enough for a whiffle ball game and the badminton net got some use as well. We took both the provided canoe and kayak out on the lake along with a paddleboard we brought. Sunsets were lovely though the dock was partially underwater after heavy rain. Kids had some luck fishing from the dock. Only downside with a lot of people was there was no quiet bedroom to sleep in it seemed like- master and other bedroom were near the kitchen and in the basement footsteps above were loud. With the pool house though, plenty of time to spread out from others if you wanted space or to come together if you didn't. A really nice place for a large family gathering. ##### Amanda C.

The kids room is a dream with lots of books and games. The kitchen is well stocked with quality cookware and plenty of plates, glasses etc The beds are comfortable and everything is nicely decorated. We took advantage of most of the outdoor amenities. There’s a firepit, a nice grill, pool, hot tub, pool house with a bar, refrigerator and ping pong, volleyball, horseshoes, cornhole boards(we brought our own bags) a kayak and canoe. Pool towels are provided as well. There is a store with all the basics within walking distance. Overall we are very happy with our stay. ##### JODY M. ### 8/10 Good #### Bill H. 1 Oct 2025 Liked: Communication, location Disliked: Cleanliness, check-in The house was spacious and updated. It really needed a deep cleaning. The windows were dirty and covered with spider webs. The light fixture over the kitchen island was filthy. We had to run the sweeper several times, but still had to put towels on some of the chairs due to stains and animal hair. The electric outlets in the primary bath did not work. The neighbors told us we were the last renters because the house had sold and the new owners are moving in. So I guess I understand why it wasn't clean. The area was lovely and the neighbors were very kind. We had a fabulous stay in Vermont. ##### Bill H. Stayed 7 nights in Sep 2025 ### 6/10 Okay #### Lori S. 15 May 2025 Disliked: Communication, listing accuracy #### Amenities listed were inaccurate. First impression was there were a lot of cobwebs and bugs on the front door. Second impression was that because we were three minutes early door code wouldn’t work. Pool was covered, as was the hot tub. Beetles all over the house. Had checked to see what coffee maker they had and was told Nespresso. Bought bunches of pods to fit and got to the house to find a Mr. Coffee. Getting on the internet was a struggle. And we had a very irritated appraiser come by the house because we wouldn’t let him in (the house was for sale). Overpriced for the amenities. ##### Lori S. Stayed 7 nights in Apr 2025 This review comes from a trusted partner site and has not been verified. ### 10/10 Excellent #### Stephen H. 20 Jul 2023 #### Beautiful Home With a Beautiful View This is a very new home, and is well equipped. It served our extended family quite well. The top floor bedroom is designed for the kids to enjoy. The other 4 bedrooms are spacious and nicely furnished, as is the rest of the home. The central air is great for those very muggy days. Unbelievably, the heated pool has a pool house with wet bar, refrigerator, full bath, a ping pong table, and air conditioning! There's also a hot tub next to the pool. We were there in early July, and apparently it was the season for these little moths to be out and about. It would be great if something could be done to mitigate them, but they were only a minor nuisance. Also, the home could use either larger trash receptacles or more frequent trash collection. All in all, we had a wonderful time and would recommend this home. ##### Stephen H. Stayed 7 nights in Jul 2023 ### 4/10 Poor #### Raul M. 26 Dec 2022 Disliked: Location #### not very happy Unfortunately, we had several problems with the house and none of them were resolved. We never got answers. When we arrived, the house had many flies, the smoke alarm did not stop denorating, the game room could not be used and the fireplace did not work properly. ##### Raul M. Stayed 3 nights in Dec 2022 ### 8/10 Good #### HAROLD S. 29 Aug 2024 Liked: Check-in, listing accuracy Disliked: Cleanliness, communication, location #### Wonderful house but terrible housekeeping The house was well equipped. But we had to do a substantial cleaning ourselves after we checked in. There were two large baskets of dirty damp beach towels we had to wash and dry. The pool house was filthy. The bathroom waste baskets were full. The swimming pool and hot tub water was cloudy. We checked the chemicals and found high Ph and very little chlorine. We drove to Milton to buy the chemicals needed to fix. On Saturday the pool service man came and apologized and reimbursed me for the chemicals but not for the auto expense. There were several cooking utensils that were dirty and needed cleaning. The large exterior trash cans were nearly full when we arrived. The house book stated the local team should come Thursday to place cans at the street for pick up. During the week we kept compressing the trash to make room for ours. Early Thursday morning I took the cans to the street. They were emptied by 7:30\. Later that day the local team member drove up to say he was coming to move the trash cans to the street. I explained what happened. He apologized and noted that he should pick them up Wednesday. He said the owners were very unhappy and he expected the team would be fired after the season. ##### HAROLD S. Stayed 7 nights in Aug 2024 ---
