About this property

Welcome to our high mountain lakeside getaway. Known fondly as Meme's lake house, let us show you why Vermont is the destination for every season.

Meme's lake house boast 100 feet of private, crystal clear lake frontage perfect for canoeing and kayaking (both provided with life vests!) or simply gazing out at while enjoying that morning cup of joe. A large fire pit can be found outback, and our private community beach is a short stroll down the road where a sandy beach welcomes summer fun!

Back home, a beautifully updated kitchen awaits the chef of the family with an open dining and living room area perfect for entertaining or a quiet evening alone. Cozy up to the classic Vermont wood burning stove while enjoying your favorite book and sinking into the deep leather couch, so comfy! Upstairs, you will find three well appointed and comfortable bedrooms; one with a king bed, one with a queen bed, and one with two double beds. There is also a sitting area offering expansive views of the beautiful sunsetting sky.

For our winter guests, Woodford is located directly on the VAST trail system which offers some of the finest snowmobiling conditions in the state. Ample parking for vehicles and trailers. Ice fishing, snow shoeing, cross country skiing and ice skating are right outside the door of Meme's lake house. The quaint Town of Wilmington which offers exquisite dining and boutique shopping is a short 15 minute drive away. Mount Snow and Stratton are also easily within reach.

At Meme's lake house, you can experience the best that each season in Vermont has to offer. Book your stay today!

Really wonderful

How was better than advertised. Really appreciated the owners leaving the essentials, including the spices and condiments. Linens, too. They really take pride in the place. Highly recommend.

A Perfect Stay

We loved Meme's lake house! The house was exactly as described, and had everything we needed. We enjoyed the fire pit, the kayaks, and the beach just down the road a bit. We hiked many trails nearby, and loved the proximity to Bennington and Wilmington. Jess, the owner, was wonderful! I recommend this property!

This is a great place to stay winter or summer

We were very happy with the house. It had plenty of room and the view of the lake is beautiful. We stayed in the winter, the roads were plowed and the house was warm. Only thing I’d say Is that a hot tub would be great and make sure to bring your own k cups for coffee. I was expecting a coffee pot. I may have missed it if the description said there was a kureig machine. I’m sure staying here is the summer would be even better since the lake is right out the back door.

About the host

Hosted by Jessica Matthews

We purchased the lake house in the summer of 2019 to fulfill my mother's dream of living on the lake. We are blessed to be able to enjoy the property and share it with our guests.

Why they chose this property

Spacious and on a very private lot, this is one of the premier lake houses in the region. The subtle attention to detail that the previous owners crafted can be found throughout, and is finely complimented by premium furnishings and comfortable bedding. We are proud to continue a family owned and operated Vermont escape.
