Winter Snow Season Special
Reduced winter rates are already reflected for January–March stays. Our lakefront farmhouse is a cozy home base for ski trips to Jay Peak, Stowe, and Smugglers’ Notch.
Welcome to our lakefront farmhouse retreat in Saint Albans, Vermont — 35 mins from Burlington and an hour from Jay Peak and Stowe. Once part of a historic dairy farm, the home blends cozy charm with space for 12, perfect for families and friends. Enjoy Lake Champlain views, nearby beaches, kayaking, hiking, biking, skiing, and a peaceful backdrop of retired pastureland. From summer adventures to fall foliage and winter fun, this is your storybook Vermont escape.
This restored lakefront farmhouse blends classic Vermont charm with modern comfort, offering the perfect four-season escape for families and friends. With room for up to 12 guests, the house sits on a quiet peninsula just outside Saint Albans — a postcard-perfect town on the shores of Lake Champlain.
The home features a spacious wraparound porch that’s made for slow mornings and golden evenings. Sip your coffee as the sun rises over the lake, surrounded by birdsong and the scent of fresh lake air. An outdoor table invites you to enjoy your meals al fresco, and Adirondack chairs in cozy spots around the porch invite you to unwind with a book, a conversation, or simply the view.
Outside, we offer a grill for casual cookouts, and a lakeside firepit awaits — perfect for roasting s’mores with the kids or enjoying a glass of wine under the stars.
Inside, you’ll find multiple gathering spaces — a large farmhouse kitchen, welcoming living and dining areas, and thoughtfully appointed bedrooms that offer both comfort and privacy. It’s the kind of home where you can cook a big breakfast, linger over a puzzle, or share stories at the table after a day outdoors.
Whether you’re here to explore or to recharge, the experience is yours to shape. Paddle the bay in one of the provided kayaks, bike or hike nearby trails, or head to a sandy beach just five minutes away. In fall, you're front and center for Vermont’s stunning foliage. In winter, some of the state’s best ski mountains are just under an hour away. And if you simply want to relax? This house is ready to welcome you with stillness, beauty, and a front-row seat to the natural rhythms of the lake.
