About this property
Beautifully Restored Farmhouse On Lake Champlain
Enjoy Lake Champlain and the Burlington area while staying in this beautifully restored 1920’s farmhouse. The lake front house offers breathtaking views of Lake Champlain and the Adirondack Mountains. With 225 feet of private beach front and a swim raft and boat mooring and brand new dock, this property is perfect for kayaking, sailing, and swimming, fishing, or just lounging around in the sun. LL Bean loved the property so much that they featured it in their November, 2016 winter catalog. The water access is very shallow and perfect for children and people of all ages to enter and exit. House includes a floating swim raft, boat mooring, a two person kayak, and a one person kayak and lots of other 'toys' including badminton/volleyball equipment, horseshoes, tetherball, golf clubs, baseball gloves, soccer balls, football, rugby ball and other sports equipment. We also feature a fire pit for roasting marshmallows or just relaxing in front of the fire. The porch has a ping pong/air hockey table. A pool table is located in the garage for your use.
This farmhouse features five bedrooms. The open concept living room, dining area and kitchen is well set up for family gatherings and guests of all ages! The farmhouse stretches 3 floors and houses its 5 Bedrooms on the top 2 levels of the home offering lots of privacy and space to get away from each other if you want to!
There is large deck overlooking the lake - adirondack chairs, tables and lounge chairs are available for your relaxation. Lay back in your lounge chair while watching the sunset over the Adirondack Mountains.
The first floor has a three season room with a wall of windows facing the lake and has a large dining room table where you can enjoy your meals while taking in the view. There is also a lakeside deck and patio with perennial gardens. The kitchen has been recently renovated with top quality modern appliances and soap stone counters. The living room features a working fireplace while the den has a propane stove that keeps you toasty when the weather cools. There are 3 full recently renovated bathrooms. The first floor bath is great for when the kids come in from the lake, featuring a shower and adjacent laundry room. The second floor contains 4 bedrooms and one full bath. The front bedroom has twin beds and overlooks the lake, bedroom 2 is cozy with a brass double bed, bedroom 3 has bunk beds for the kids and the 4th bedroom features a queen bed. The master suite located on the third floor features a sitting room with a day bed, a king size bed. The adjacent bath contains a claw tub as well as a separate shower room. Lake and mountain views can be seen from all bedrooms.
Please note that during the summer months, starting the the end of June, we only accept Saturday to Saturday bookings.

Gorgeous property right on the lake; very comfortable lake house experience and vibe; tons of activities to enjoy, from kayaking to air hockey to adirondack chairs in the sunshine, and everything in between. Great stay!
If you are looking for a great family getaway you NEED to book this place. We came up for UVM Commencement and we absolutely loved this home. The kitchen is stocked with everything you need and more to cook in and feed the family. There is a whole bookshelf full of games and puzzles; 5 bedrooms with room for privacy and the house is so spacious you don’t feel like you are bumping into each other. The view is AMAZING snd we couldn’t stop saying ‘wow! Look at this place!’ Susan the host was easily reachable and communicative. Don’t let this one slip by! We hope to come back again for sure!
This property is amazing! It was perfect for our extended family stay. This is the second time our family chose this property and we plan to visit again!
My family loves staying at Susan Orr’s wonderful house on Lake Champlain. The house has everything you might need, including a fully stocked kitchen and so many possibilities for entertainment (e.g. kayaks, air hockey, volley ball, games, and more). Perhaps best of all is the incredibly beautiful view of the lake.
Smooth process as always with this location. It works out great for the family. Beautiful area with lots to see and do. We'll certainly be back. Thank you again
4th or 5th stay in this wonderful farmhouse located on the edge of Lake Champlain. Always a great view, wonderful bonfires, and all-around fabulous spot to relax & unwind!
This is the most beautiful setting imaginable! Beautifully cared for grounds. It sits right on the lake, fantastic porch/room running the width of the house overlooking NY coast. Cozy, charming rooms. It feels like you are staying in a home, not a rental. Plenty of “toys” for all ages! This was our fourth stay and we’ve already booked next year.
Each time we stay in this spacious, comfortable home, we enjoy it all—the lake, the games, the magnificent views, the expansive porches, the charming Grand Isle shops and food stands, and of course our time as a three generation family making memories.and being grateful.
We had a wonderful time with our whole family. The house is spacious, the view is amazing, and the rocky beach is very accessible. There is plenty of outside space for outdoor games and lots of rooms for hanging out in when inside. We will look forward to coming back!
This was a lovely property with wonderful sunset views. Owner was very responsive. The house was very spacious and comfortable. We were there too early in the season to take advantage of the water access, which we were bummed about because the weather was beautiful!
Would love to stay there again in the summer!!
A beautiful and peaceful home on the lake with plenty of activities for everyone to enjoy! Whether it’s playing pool, tetherball, board games, or just relaxing by the water, there is something for everyone. The kitchen is well stocked with everything you need, and the home is comfortable and extremely spacious. Great hosts, great home, and a great property!
We were visiting from Texas, California, Tennessee, Pennsylvania and Central Vermont for the marathon. This house was a great location convenient to the start/finish line and the course itself. It was an easy trip to Burlington and there were enough local eateries to feed us all. The house was as described with gorgeous views of Lake Champlain. Would definitely return for more relaxation and less running!
A very nice Farm House on the Lake, six of us have stayed at this location many times. My only wish would be a larger TV in the living room for the evenings when the day is done.Other than that 5 Stars~

Never mind the torrential rain -- your beautiful home was perfect for our 9-person graduation group! Your kitchen was well stocked with everything we needed, and we loved the ample table space in the wide porch room. The game space was much enjoyed by the teens, with some very competitive ping pong and pool. My 17yo caught a smallmouth bass within moments of putting in his rod....I know he will not stop pestering until we book again. Thank you!

Old Farm House, needs TLC and a thorough cleaning
Outside grounds were pretty, good views of the lake from the back porch. However, inside furnishings were beat up, wires and cords hanging about, kitchen and fridge were not clean (had to wash the coffee pot, countertops, and cookware before we used them), bathrooms had toothpaste smears and drips (and not sure what else) on countertops. Linens were thin and old. Unfortunately, it just gave us the creeps.
From the gorgeous landscaping to the black shore made by nature entirely of skipping stones, this is the place for a great vacation. The big old farm house is comfy and well appointed. The huge sun room and deck overlooking the mighty lake were perfect for daydreaming, doing art, talking, dining. Eight of us. We loved it. Only drawback was that the six sleeping on second floor shared one bathroom, but there are two more baths, just not on that floor. Most days kayaking was great but when the wind is up waves form. All in all so very beautiful.
This was our 2nd time renting this house for vacation and we have already booked for another year. We were excited to see there had been some upgrades made since last time we were there. Some new window ac’s to help keep us cool and some new furniture. The house is huge and very good for a large group. Having multiple restrooms on every level was helpful too. We loved all the games and activities that are provided; volleyball net, pool and loads of board games. It was magical being right on the water and the dock is perfect for sunning and lounging on floats. This house was also in a great location, nice and close To all of our favorite spots. The views of the lake from the house was gorgeous and we Loved all the outdoor seating!
We had a wonderful family holiday at this house. The house had lovely touches of being decorated for the holidays, and the space was great for my family. The windowed porch definitely needs heaters for the winter (which we were prepared with!), and it was an awesome addition to the space, which would have been a little squishy inside. The beds were not all the newest most comfortable beds, but they did their jobs! We would definitely come back, and we'd love to visit again in the summer and enjoy the outdoor space more!
Beware, entering the 3rd floor has a very short ceiling for anyone over 5'6", but the space opens up after the staircase!
I promised my kids I would give our stay at Susan's house as many stars as I could. They wanted to give it a hundred stars, but alas, 5 is the limit. We obviously had a great time. The littler people loved having so many things to play with, including air hockey, ping pong, the tetherball, and the other fun options available. The bigger people appreciated the clean and comfortable kitchen, the absolutely stunning view of the lake, and the proximity to Burlington while staying somewhere special and quieter. We would all love to come back in the summer when we can take advantage of the lake. In the meantime, we loved our stay and would recommend 100 out or 5 stars. Thank you, Susan!
Five guys rode from Nashville TN to the 2026 BMW MOA national motorcycle rally in nearby Essex Junction, VT. What a great place for relaxing and refreshing after 5 day summertime ride. The property was well maintained and very clean. After the air conditioners did their thing, the bedrooms were very comfortable. We cooked in the well provisioned kitchen, and enjoyed eating in enclosed porch. Many amenities (kayaks, books, TVs, board games...). My personal favorite was sitting out on the porch viewing Lake Champlain and the boats, birds, and clouds; reading, talking, and generally enjoying life on the lake. The other guys thought I was brilliant to find this Farmhouse on VRBO, but the credit really goes to the hostess, who made sure everything was as described or better!
