Idyllic Lakefront House Suited Two Families
The Lake House - One of Ludlow's Most Picturesque Rentals
This comfortable and convenient, 3 bedroom, 3 bath lakefront home with fully-appointed kitchen & full laundry is perfectly situated to enjoy a relaxing Vermont vacation. The home sleeps 10 people and is only 2 miles to the area's best skiing!
Right out of the back door, you'll find one of Vermont's most pristine lakes. (No motor boats permitted.) The fresh, mountain air and stunning Vermont views will greet you at every turn. The boat dock and included kayaks and canoe (with life vests) make for great fun, great fishing and great relaxation a full three seasons out of the year. Paddle to the nearby overflow "waterfall", swim, or fish from the dock or one of the boats ... great for kids and adults of all ages. Whether you're looking for the best hiking, biking, swimming, kayaking ... or just enjoying the view with a fresh, hot cup of coffee on the deck, you'll find this location and this home the perfect spot to relax and unwind.
THE MOST RELAXING VACATION I EVER HAD
“If you're looking for the most perfect vacation house for a relaxing week I highly recommend this one."
Review by Paige L.
PEACEFUL & COMFORTABLE
“The house is spacious, there are beautiful views
of the lake from the living room and master bedroom.“

The location is ideal for summer or winter. (Okemo 2 miles away Buttermilk Falls, golf etc 3 miles)
The quintessentially Vermont town of Ludlow (about 4 miles) offers great local shops, a fully-stocked supermarket, drugstore, hardware store, bike shop, wine shops and fantastic restaurants.
The beautiful and historic town of Woodstock is a short 25 mile drive, and you can stop at the brewery and get a sampler of the different word famous Long Trail ales and maybe enjoy lunch or dinner there right next to at a murmuring brook. . The renowned Weston Playhouse Theater is even closer at just 10 miles. Weston is worth a visit by itself.
Winter - It's virtually impossible to beat this home and this location for great winter activity and relaxation. From the winter wonderland that the lake and surrounding area becomes, to some of the most amazing skiing in all of Vermont, you'll find it all close by. Okemo's newest lodge, Jackson Gore, is just 2 miles away and connects with other Okemo lodges via a network of 121 trails & glades, 667 acres of terrain and a vertical drop of 2,200 feet ... the most in southern Vermont. Okemo is reliable to always have fantastic grooming and is known for “the best in family fun”. If you are an extreme skier and need a challenge go to nearby Killington.
Nearby Skiing
• Okemo
• Viking Nordic Center
• Magic Mountain Ski Area
• Killington
• Pico Mountain Ski Resort
• Suicide Six Downhill Ski Area
• Sugarbush / Mad River Glenn about 1 h (See a spectacular frozen waterfall on the way.)
Spring & Summer - Activities abound! From the plentiful parks, the nearby state forest, the Appalachian trail or the Long Trail, this home is close to them all. Plan a bike trip along one of the rivers or the chain of lakes on which this home sits, play tennis on the nearby public court or play golf just 3 miles away! Jump in the water at the famous Buttermilk Falls just 3 miles away.
Many of the local mountains offer scenic rides, exciting activities for children and teenagers, and mountain biking.
“We spent the majority of our time swimming, fishing, kayaking, and just hanging out in the backyard.”
Review by Aimee D.
“We really enjoyed staying at this very comfortable cottage. It was a very convenient base to go mountain biking, hiking, and of course canoeing was right out the back door.”
Review by Deborah O.
Autumn - Sited in one of the lushest areas in Southern Vermont, the fall colors here are nothing short of breath-taking. From sunny, warm days - perfect for hiking and biking and relaxing - to the cool, crisp nights tailor-made for a glass of wine or s'mores around the fire (weather permitting), this is the place to take it all in.
Nearby for the kids -
• The Sugarhouse at The Lake is just two houses south and is the place to go for maple syrup, old fashioned candy and wonderful local gifts. (send them there with the boat(s)
• Okemo / Killington summer attractions
• The Waterslide @ Pico Mountain
• Ben & Jerry's Vermont Ice Cream Factory
• The historical birthplace of President Calvin Coolidge
• The Vermont Cheese Factory

Frequently asked questions
About the host
Hosted by Ursula Middel
I love skiing, biking, hiking and water sports. I live in Long Island, where I do boating and biking in the summer. I grew up in Germany but have been in the States for many years.
Why they chose this property
I fell in love with the quiet spot on the lake, where I can look out on the water.from the dining room, living room, kitchen and even the shower and enjoy the ever changing scenery.
What makes this property unique
The location is great in all season, and the house is very comfortable even when occupied by a lot of people. In the winter period we have had at times 10 people in the house (mostly ski instructors) and yet it works well with the kitchen etc.
Special amenities: Whirl tub, two tables for eating, two refrigerators, 2 coffee makers, deck, dock, backyard large enough to play ball; (don't worry about the ball, you can fish it out of the lake, the shore is shallow). Downstairs play area has ping-pong table, games, chairs, refrigerator and extra bathroom.
WINTER: There are 5 to six parking places next to the house, but in winter conditions, if you do not have a four wheel drive, leave your car in the parking space next to the road on top of the fence as a precaution. We have a local contractor to plow and sand, but conditions change and the little road (Denardis Rd.) that goes down to the lake from Rt. 100 is very steep.
SUMMER: We put in a modern dock for launching the boats and recently added a boat rack.
Our deck has a beautiful view of the lake, equipped with two benches, outdoor table with umbrella, plenty of chairs, BBQ and electric grill..
There is a fire pit at the lake where you can roast marshmallows in the evening.
If you have an electric car you can charge it in the driveway. We have a convenient outside plug at the house. (Low fee, honor system.)
