Best place ever!

We had a blast! Location and views are insane! Location is also super close to Jay Peak (which was also fun with kids) but also the layout of the house is perfect for families. Highly recommend and Ryan was very responsive. Looking forward to our next visit!

Amazing view!

Great stay. Internet worked perfectly as I worked from there for a day. AC worked great in 90 degree weather! The lake was beautiful and the dock and chairs were nice by the water to sit and relax. The hosts were very quick in responding to any questions. Would definitely stay again!

Great view and location

This was a great property, close to downtown Newport but felt very removed with an amazing view of the lake. The house was clean and welcoming, and Ryan made the reservation and check in process very easy. The house has lots of stairs, both inside and to get down to the lake, which wasn't ideal for our youngest children, but we made it work. Thanks for a lovely and memorable stay!

Oh My! What a view.

We stayed here for a Fall weekend. Spectacular views. The place is clean and fit our family (2 adults, 4 kids 13-16) with ample space. While the place certainly has its quirks, everything was fantastic. We are planning to come back during a different season.

Great location and unparalleled views!

We had a great few days at the Scenic Retreat in Newport, VT. Ryan was beyond helpful and responsive to any and all requests. Our favorite things were spending time on the dock kayaking and swimming or just floating, nights at the fire pit and family dinners around the large dining table. Thank you, Ryan, for sharing this awesome property with us!

Visit family in VT

I loved the lake and the kayaks and the view and the fishing! It wasn't until I was leaving that I noticed all the chargers in each of the rooms which my sons and friends were very happy with. All the condiments and supplies needed for a most enjoyable stay! Great exercise on the stairs to the dock!

The view!

Sitting in a rocking chair with your morning coffee while looking at the lake is the perfect way to start the day. We spent time at the lake dock swimming and reading.. Visited Jay Peak, Newport and rented a boat to explore the lake. The dining table easily fit 7 of us for dinner and games. We enjoyed our stay and time to reconnect with family.

A real home away from home!

This beautiful home was just perfect for our family! The lake was so amazing, we could have stayed there forever! They provided everything we could have needed. The house is just a quick few minutes drive to town, to get food or whatever other shopping you might have to do. There is an indoor waterpark at Jay Peak not even 30 minutes away. We stayed here as a family of 6 with our four small kids age 2-9, (who had the time of their lives!). Thank you so much for sharing this magical place, Ryan and Taylor! Wonderful and helpful hosts too!

Extremely easy check-in. The house was clean with plenty of towels. Well-equipped kitchen with plenty of spices & condiments. It's really the view to the lake that is the spectacular aspect of this house. Stairs were navigable (thank you for the heads-up) and our granddaughter was excited by the daily train passing. Only real downside were the windows, none of which can be opened. The description was clear about this, but in reality caused for some discomfort, especially at night. Host very easy to deal with, and the lake is fantastic!

Perfect Winter Getaway

The home was perfect for our family for a long winter weekend. The wall to wall windows on the front of the house brought lots of light and were perfect for watching the snow fall. The gas fireplace stove was so nice for relaxing next to as it was very cold and snowy outside. Part of the family skied at Jay Peak for a day, and it was a perfect location to do that but also be close to extended family in the Newport area. The kids had lots of fun playing in the snow on the frozen lake. The house had everything we needed and was really clean and stocked. I would definitely visit again and would love to come back in the summer when we could take full advantage of the beautiful lake and lawn area.

Lovely stay with quick access to gorgeous lake!

Lovely house with a gorgeous view of the lake via large picture windows and quick access via a steep flight of stairs. Ryan was very responsive to my questions and up front about lake access, making sure it was going to work for us. If you've got mobility or balance issues, navigating the stairs in the house and down to the lake will be an issue! It wasn't an issue for my friends and I, so this was a great stay that Ryan made better by having kayaks available on the dock! The kitchen was well stocked with cooking utensils and cutlery, and the bathroom was well stocked with toiletries. Bedrooms were a good size with comfortable beds. Note there is only one a/c window unit for each floor, so it did get muggy upstairs - there were ceiling and floor fans to help circulate cooler air and make it comfortable for us. Overall, my friends and I had a blast - Thanks Ryan!!

We had fun

First and foremost, the hosts were amazing and the view was spectacular. I cannot say enough good things about the host. He was very responsive and very attentive. My stepson had a great time and caught some pretty decent fish on the lake. We found dirty pans in the oven from the previous renters that the cleaning crew did not catch. That aside, our only concern was some safety issues with the house. All of the floors are uneven. The refrigerator doors and the guest bath door will not stay open due to the sloping of the house. In the kitchen, you start going downhill and then at the end you are walking uphill.

Thank you for the kind words Ryan I appreciate it! 1. Dirty Pans in the Oven - totally unnacceptable that the dirty pans were left in the oven, this has been relayed back to the cleaning company with the utmost seriousness. I very much appreciate you letting us know about this. 2. Floors - the house is 110 years old, lot of things are crooked. While odd/annoying, I do not agree that this is a "safety issue". This is our personal second home that I put myself and my familiy, including young children in. I would never put my own family nor a renter into an unsafe place. However, we certainly don't want anyone surprised by what they are getting when they arrive. As such, we'll update our listing decription to make it more obvious to potential renters that the house is old and has sloped floors.

Beautiful Lake near the Canadian Border

We were a multi-generational family spending time at this property. It is an older camp home so do not expect a dishwasher or bright lighting and the listing is honest about stairs to navigate each level. It is a beautiful view from the rocking chairs and dining room table, next level below with table and grill, lawn down another level with fire pit and wood provided, down another level to tracks (train passed by 1 morning we were there), and another set of stairs to the dock. We were able to swim off the dock that has some seating and a sit-on Kayak. We spent a beautiful summer day at Prouty Beach and also visited Coventry Falls alpaca farm, about a15 minute drive. Owners were available, information provided clearly and timely, additional toiletries, coffee/teas, charging cords and condiments well stocked to make it an easy stay. There are also new washing machines in house. Sunsets were beautiful-a loon made a regular visit. It is a beautiful setting to spend some time enjoying a lake view!

Beautiful view

The view is beautiful. The house is very clean. We loved the little touches like a in case you forgot basket, coffee bar and little snacks.Ryan was great to work with. He answered any questions I had with an immediate response and when we asked to extend our stay he made it so easy. It was a little cold to spend anytime outside but the view was so spectacular that there was no need to.

David was a great renter (communication, cleanliness, gratitude), until after he checked out and we found one of our (semi new!) kitchen table chairs was broken very badly. Leg ripped off and frame broken. David had even texted me letting me know it broke. Everything was great until I told David I was keeping some money from the deposit to pay for the chair to be repaired. We never spoke on the phone, just messages, so I don't know for certain tone of voice. However, it appeared David got angry quickly at the idea of the deposit being used to help pay to repair the chair. He insisted it just broke while he was sitting in it. While we will never know for sure, I do not believe the chair broke from standard usage. David's group included a group of young teens, doesn't seem like much of stretch to imagine some rough housing got out of hand. It is unfortunate David chose to retaliate with leaving us a 1 star review. David and his family wrote very positive messages into our guest book stating what a great experience they'd had staying at our home. It is unfortunate we were not able to leave off on better terms. -Ryan
