Summary: This was our second year staying at the Big Yellow Camp. Another wonderful week. The check in process was easy, the owners are always available and very helpful. The house has so much character, it feels like home. We enjoyed the space and were very comfortable with 12 adults and three kids age 6 months - 4 years old. You cannot beat the view and beach access!

Summary: Location was awesome with a beautiful beach right outside the door. The playground at the airport park made for a nice change of pace when the kids needed a change of pace and it was a quick drive to downtown Burlington for great meals and a trip to the ECHO science museum.

Summary: We stayed at Chris's camp the week of our wedding and it was exactly as advertised, a great spot right on the beach! it definitely gets WARM and would benefit from AC, the fans in the windows did help tremendously. We had to remind people about the fans, screened windows and breezes and getting in the lake to cool down. Folks just aren't used to finding the non-AC ways to cool themselves anymore. Make sure to are taking advantage of the breeze and getting in the lake if you are staying in the summer to keep cool. Great spot for a classic summer vacation.

Summary: Seven friends since high school have been gathering during the summer for many, many years. Of late, we’ve been renting this wonderful rustic camp on the lake, maybe for the past seven years. We grew up in the area, and this is the type of camp we prefer — lots of wood, cozy, authentic, and extremely well equipped. The location cannot be beat. Excellent in every way.

Summary: The views of Lake Champlain were spectacular. The front living room and dining room with window to window panoramic view of the lake and close proximity to the water sometimes felt that we lived on a houseboat without the downside of any rocking. The house was clean, rustic and soulful. Mattresses and linens were clean and comfortable. The two canoes with paddles and vests were a delight. Wifi, television with streaming worked perfectly, but the available hands-on games led to comradery and spirt of the “camp” led us to even play “charades” with the entire extended family including teenagers. The kitchen had all necessary amenities, but bring your teenagers to help with washing the dishes. The “camp” was so fun we did not miss any automatic dishwasher. Two bathrooms for nine of us worked out well and the outdoor shower was sublime.

Summary: The location of this house cannot be beat. The neighborhood is beautiful, neighbors were all very nice. The owners were very responsive, kind and overly accommodating. The house is very spacious, we stayed with 12 adults and 2 children and never felt like we were on top of each other. We have already booked again for next year!

Summary: Sandy beach was a huge hit! The camp provides 2 large sun umbrellas with stands, many different types of sand chairs and plastic Adirondack chairs for our beach experience. We enjoyed using one of the two canoes. Life vests of various sizes were available. We had 2 fires in the fire-pit at night. Kindling available on the beach and we brought a few logs for burning. There are essentially 2 living areas plus the kitchen and 6 bedrooms. We spent most of our inside time on the porch overlooking the water and in the dining area either eating or playing games. Many of us utilized the outdoor shower, which looks new and had a basket to put clothes in so they wouldn't get wet. Window fans in the bedrooms were super helpful as a couple of our evenings were quite warm. Chris was easily accessible by phone and helpful. We would definitely return for a family vacation in the future! Thank you, Chris!

Summary: Chris the owner was incredibly helpful and fast with responses. The house was exceptionally clean. Right on the private beach in a quiet neighborhood. Plenty of room for multiple families (with adult children). The views from the house and beach were incredible, great kayaking, great night fire pit, great location (close enough to everything but far enough for plenty of quiet relaxation). Went to sleep and awoke to the sounds of the waves lapping on the shore. I really can’t say enough about Chris and the house…
