Charlotte Cottage | Renovated Family Friendly Lake House on the Water's Edge. Boater's Dream!

3 Bedroom Cottage in Charlotte

This recently renovated lake cottage has everything you'll need for a perfect summer vacation on Lake Champlain. You can start your morning at sun-up taking your coffee onto the dock or pull up a chair on the surf's edge deck to watch the ducks greet the day.
A boat lover's paradise, the property offers a mooring and 50-foot dock, with marina access a stone's throw from the house. Lakefront rental summer cottages with boat access are hard to find. This one is a gem! Thompson's Point is located ideally in between deep water and shallow bays for some of the lake's best fishing including salmon, trout, bass, pike and walleye. Basin Harbor and Split Rock are just two boating destinations within ten minutes of the dock.
You certainly don't need to own a boat to make yourself at home on the lake. Whether you prefer the day ahead to include constant activity or endless relaxation, this cabin will fit the bill. The house itself is a sun-filled open floor plan with 3 bedrooms, perfect for time together or time to yourself.
Please note that the lake level and swimming conditions can fluctuate throughout the summer. Guests typically boat or paddle out to deeper water to swim. New for summer 2020 - deepwater raft platform (12X12) located on the mooring, 100 feet from the dock.
The main floor houses the kitchen, full bath with double sink vanity and new washer/dryer. The kitchen is fully applianced with dishwasher, microwave and standard coffee maker.
The water supply comes from a drinkable, freshwater well; some renters prefer to bring bottled water. Well system has a newly added water softener as of summer 2020.
Two master quads sleep four in Queen/Twin/Twin combinations that can function as family suites or as a kids' dream bedroom. One Master Quad is on the 3rd level along with a third bedroom with twin. Note: the stairs to upper level are steeper than average staircases and have a railing but may not be suitable for small children or those with mobility issues. The other Master Quad is on the lake level. A versatile floor plan lends itself to a multi-family vacation with flexible sleeping options. All linens and towels are provided. Air conditioning unit in one upstairs bedroom.
Activities abound at Thompson's Point. Tennis players will love the community courts - laid back, first come, first serve, no reservations. Golfers can spend the day at the nearby Basin Harbor Golf Course. Walkers, runners and bikers will savor the minimal traffic and beautiful vistas along the Vermont roads.
As much as there is to do, it will be hard to tear yourself away from 100 feet of your very own lakefront. Paddleboard and dinghy are included with the rental. A kiddy pool for little ones in also included. Water shoes are recommended for lake edge entry.
When the day is winding down, an outdoor shower with lake view will prepare you for a sunset cocktail. Then it's onto the 650 sf wraparound deck to cook your steaks on the gas grill before you finish the evening with s'mores on the firepit.
All rentals are Sunday to Sunday, full week rentals.
Ample parking for multiple cars and boat trailers with advance notice.
Rinnai heater will make this a perfect foliage hub.

25 minutes to downtown Burlington's vibrant waterfront and Church Street Marketplace.
15 minutes to Vergennes' bustling foodie scene.
Short bike ride to the Old Brick store, a market with bakery, deli and grill options.

Summary: Property is located in an excellent location. Dock was able to handle our 3 boats. This is our second time renting this house. It met all of our needs. Property is well managed

Summary: We had such an amazing time during our stay. All the descriptions were perfect. For instance, stairs to upstairs bedroom were steep, but we knew all those details going in. The owners were very honest in answering all of our questions leading up to our stay. Loved our morning coffee on the dock and the fact that we could bring our boat. We launched at the Point Bay Marina 100 yards away and didn’t need to take boat out until it was time to go home. What a great, relaxing week!!

Summary: This lakeside home 'Camp David' is in a quiet location overlooking the waters edge. Check in/check out process/expectations were simple and clearly explained. The 1st floor has a nice kitchen with many utensils/ pots/pans/plates/bowls/mugs. We discovered the drip coffee maker was not functioning appropriately and reached out to the owner who that evening brought over THEIR OWN COFFEE MAKER to ensure we had coffee the next morning until they could get a proper replacement, which we had the later that afternoon. I thought that was incredibly kind. There is a nice dining room table (lighting was challenging for cards but we made do and sat at the island most nights) and a large living room with ample seating and a beautiful wall of windows to look out on the lake. A bedroom downstairs has 1 queen bed and 2 bunk beds, with its own private entrance/exit and a slider out to the deck. The 2nd floor was incredibly challenging to get to. The stairs are very narrow and the steps were skinny.. definitely not suitable for children or those with mobility concerns. That staircase leads to a small room with a day bed, and a larger room with a queen and 2 twin beds. The deck and dock are beautiful. They really have everything you need to enjoy the lake - a picnic table, several seating options, paddle board, row boat, life jackets, fishing poles, kiddie pool, etc. We would stay again depending on what family goes, as many of them could not do those stairs to the 2nd floor.

Summary: The location of the property was wonderful and the host was quick to answer any questions we had. The place was not as clean as we would want as there were clean dishes in the dishwasher with noticeable pieces of food inside. I'm not sure when the last time the filter of the dishwasher had been cleaned. There were also cobwebs everywhere. There were previous notes about the narrowness of the stairs upstairs but I wish we had a better sense of how short each stair is. My partner is tall and the majority of his foot hangs off the stair which seemed a hazard. There are also some places that were just much easier to bump into with his tall frame. The tennis courts were really well kept and a large reason for our stay. The lake was lovely and the house is right on the water which made for some beautiful sunrises on less cloudy days.

Summary: Great house, great location, clean. Hosts responsive to any questions. Our family of 6 had a wonderful stay.

Summary: The location and views are absolutely beautiful. The house had everything we needed from an amenities standpoint, and was so clean we could smell it as we walked through the front door. The dock and lake provided endless entertainment for our family-the paddle board was so much fun! We also used the tennis courts down the street. Truly a beautiful home and vacation spot.

Summary: We stayed at this home for 7 nights. The town/area is absolutely gorgeous. The home and lake area near the dock is not great. There were many holes/gaps in the screen so a ton of bugs infiltrated the house on the first night. We had to keep the windows closed and lights of each night thereafter, which isn’t great in July. The staircases are extremely steep. Wasn’t too much of a problem for us (besides carrying the kids up and down) but definitely would be an issues for someone with any mobility issues so just keep that in mind when booking. I would absolutely not recommend this home for anyone that is looking for a home on the lake to swim. Although the view of the sailboats are absolutely gorgeous, the water is extremely merky and only about two feet deep near the dock. We knew it would be shallow based in other reviews, but did not realize how shallow. There is a sign that says swim at own risk of the deck, but a shallow water, no jumping sign is a necessity near the water. Also, the septic vent is on the side of the house next to the fire pit. It smells very bad (not sure if it’s full?) especially when someone flushes to toilet. Almost unbearable to have a fire. All in all, it was a vacation on the lake in a gorgeous town so I hate to even complain. But we will not be staying at this house again.

Summary: We returned home to NJ from a lovely week at Camp David! The property, camp and town were a perfect getaway for our family ! Our children and spouses, grandchildren and dogs had a great week!! The beautiful deck with outdoor grill made for perfect dinners outdoors to enjoy the waterfront. The outdoor fire pit was nice too, to roast s’mores for the children . We thoroughly enjoyed the peaceful views anytime of the day . Life is better at the lake!! Maria and Don Hannis and family

Summary: Our family had an awesome week at Camp David. The view from the house and dock were amazing. The kitchen was well equipped. Awesome grill and deck. Loved having access to the dinghy and paddle board as well as a washer, dryer and dishwasher. All the comforts of home! The house is cozy with features that give it character. The six of us did fine with just one bathroom, especially because we utilized the super nice outdoor shower. Beds were comfy and clean, well water was fine! My only complaint is that you really can’t swim at this property. In order to swim you must take the dinghy out pretty far to a centralized dock. This wasn’t made clear in the online description. A huge disappointment for us. Watch out for algae blooms, specifically in this spot due to the shallow, slow moving water. We had 3 days that we couldn’t be in the water at all due to the blooms (we realize this is nature and out of the control of the owner). The amount of unnatural/metal debris in the water on either side of the dock made it so we did not feel safe wading in. Considering the steep price we paid, we were hopeful that the lake access would have been better.
