About this property
Summer time at The Big-Lake Lodge at Lake Champlain
Bring the whole family to this great place with lots of room for fun. The size of this home is perhaps its most unique benefit. Very few properties have the open space to host 14 guests without the property feeling "crowded". This property is so large that at times guests may wonder where the kids went....and they are just upstairs in their game room having fun or playing pool.
Rural lakefront neighborhood. We ask of you upon departure that all food is removed from fridge & freezer. Trash is taken care of. Appliances are all off.

We enjoyed our time. Getting to sit on the back porch and play corn hole and listening to the waves crash into shore was amazing. It was very quiet and peaceful stay. Would defiantly let friends know to stay.
The property is elegantly rustic, beautiful views of Lake Champlain. Very well stocked for bathrooms, Laundry, games, televisions, etc. Great Kitchen.We were bookending attendance at a family wedding about 45 minutes away from the property. Very relaxing and beautiful views of the Lake and surrounding hills and forests.The access to the house and then to the Lake are a series of steps that are pretty long and deep. Not well suited to children under the age of 7 or 8 or for anyone with concerns about lots of steps.Remote and somewhat challenging navigation at night to access from the highway.All in all delightful but not for folks with accessibility issues.
Everything from the house, to the view, to the vibe was perfect. Lake living at its finest. This is a peaceful and quiet place. It has ample space to stretch out and breathe but also quality open space to gather the whole group.
Looking forward to returning again!
We loved the gorgeous views of Lake Champlain and the little rocky beach on the property. The game room was helpful in the evenings and everyone in our group had their own spot. So lovely!
We had a lovely family reunion at the cabin. The view is spectacular, the water was lovely for swimming, and the cabin was very comfortable with air conditioning, many comfortable places to sit indoors and out doors with a screened in porch. The pool table was a big hit, and we throughly enjoyed a visit to Ausable Chasm and Rolf's Farm Store.
Our group of 13 had a great time at this place. Loved waking up to lake views every morning that we spent here. We would love to visit again in the future.
If you are looking for a very relaxing place to stay away from everyone i highly recommend here. Its very secluded with an amazing view to wake up.tp every morning. It's also very spaced out so you and who ever you go with aren't all on top of one another.
The place is amazing, spacious and filled with activities so you don’t even need to leave the entire time you’re there. Lifelong memories were definitely made.
This property was great for a large group. Plenty of sleeping and dining space. 3 bathrooms with 3 showers was a big plus with a large group. Definitely glad we were advised to bring water shoes as the beach area is very rocky however having a little section of Lake Champlain to ourselves was amazing!
The house was perfect for our group. The kids (teenagers) had their own bedroom and connecting game room. The bedrooms accommodated the parents nicely. Very comfortable and clean.
Truly enjoyed our time with family and friends at this perfectly located waterfront house. It was just right for our group with enough separate rooms for privacy, shared linving spaces and water access. We loved watching the sunrise with coffee in the morning and fires on the rocky beach as the sun set. Its also near a brewery and winery so another plus! Loved our visit and would recommend to others looking to have a large group get together.
The property was clean and well maintained. Floor plan and house layout is unique, but this adds to it charms. Our group went to fish, and this afforded us that opportunity. Would definitely book again.
The Big-Lake Lodge at Lake Champlain was the perfect getaway for my family and my brother's. We were a party of 10 and were completely comfortable in a spacious 2 story house with high ceilings. The views of Lake Champlain from the back porch are spectacular! The house and its surroundings are so peaceful and picturesque. Only issues we had were flies in the house but that's to be expected when you're on the water and in a forest area but Barbara provided fly tape and that mostly fixed the problem. Overall stay was fantastic and we would definitely come back!
Our stay was better than we could have hoped for. The property was clean and welcoming. There were no issues with any appliace or amenity. The house was cool, comfortable, and huge . The walk to the beach is like stadium steps steep, but not difficult and well worth it. The mangers were very clear and responsive. The town is quaint and welcoming. The price was well worth it. We had an 20s couple, a 20s, male, a 40s couple, and one teen and one child. Consider costs... the value was unquestionable. Highly recommended this place and the group of managers. Will definitely return.
The house was awesome! The large floorplan enabled privacy when people wanted it and large community areas for socializing! The childrens quarters were perfect, their own lake views and attached to the game room. The large decks provided us with so many beautiful lake views and we loved the kayaks for some relaxing time on the water. I also loved catching a larger laketrout than my brother!!
Location was great as was kayaking! This home did meet our needs.
House needs some help. Issues with - lack of kitchen towels, flies in house, very dirty oven, cobwebs, difficulty closing doors, broken shades, minimal water pressure in bathroom sinks.
8 Adults and 1 pup had plenty of room to enjoy picture perfect fall weather in a beautiful location. Enjoyed the cottage on the lake which included kayaking, bonfires on the beach. Great area to take walks. We made daytrips to Burlington, Lake Placid, and Plattsburg. Went to the Ausauble Chasm. Lots of breweries to choose from when we didn't cook and wanted to explore. We only skimmed the surface of all there is to do. Very comfortable beds. Very nicely furnished and gorgeous views.
Our large family group had a wonderful time enjoying swimming, paddle boarding, kayaking and boating and fishing. It was worth getting up predawn just to see the gorgeous sunrise from the large deck. The house was very spacious with comfortable beds and seating. We like that the boat landing was so close by though if there had been a dock or mooring for our boat at the property it would have been an added plus. A visit to the close by Ausable Chasm and Highland Winery made our list plus there were a couple of nearby disc golf courses that made our list of activities. This was by far one of our family’s favorite vacation houses and we would certainly love to come back again.
House is nice! But the master bathroom is not in the master suite. If you have kids in the bunkbed room, they use the same bathroom. There’s a little hard in the middle of the night sometimes. 31 stairs going down to the lake, which was never talked about in their Verbo profile.
This is an amazing property. It suited our needs perfectly to visit with family in the area. The house is huge. The views of the lake and sunrises are a bonus. Spectacular. Use of kayaks and paddle boards added to the fun. The kitchen is well-stocked with plates, utensils, pots, pans, etc. Bring extra toilet paper and paper towels, napkins, zip locks, foil etc. Overall, an amazing property. We’re already talking about coming back to this property next year.
House was huge and gave us all space to not feel on top of each other. Upon arriving I emailed the host to make them aware of a couple items that in no way affected our stay but I just wanted documented. Immediately someone was sent out to address the “issues”. I was very impressed with the promptness and attention we were given. Thank you!
