Wonderful house

We loved our stay at this beautiful and rich-with-family-history home. The views of Caspian Lake were beautiful and the quiet was exactly what we needed. We had everything we needed and Virginia was easy to communicate with; very accommodating to any concerns we had. We hope to come back again.

Great, well-equipped house with a fantastic sense of space - peace and quiet with loads to do, especially with young kids - would definitely recommend the house to anyone if you want to get away from it all in an area of true beauty .....

GREAT LOCATION

We enjoyed very much the location and the lake facilities. Too bad that it was raining part of the week but it didn't bother the children. I would recommend to give more and better attention to cleanliness and freshness of the products in the cupboard.

Awesome stay!

We had 4 adults and 7 children in the house for a week and were comfortable and happy! The hosts were very responsive and kind. We spent a few days at Stowe and Jay's Peak which were both about an hours drive away. The rest of the time we sledded on the property, made snow angels and built snow forts in the foot of snow that arrived for our visit! We had a bonfire in the awesome fire pit overlooking the amazing view of Caspian Lake and surrounding mountains. The kitchen was well stocked for a large party. Also, the neighbors at Highland Lodge were wonderful as we enjoyed a delicious dinner there one evening. Overall, a wonderful stay!!!

Perfect spot to enjoy Caspian Lake

We have rented many houses around Caspian Lake / Greensboro and this spot is right at the top of our list. There are plenty of bedrooms for a larger group and the grounds are spectacular. While not directly on the lake, you have the best of all worlds with a gorgeous view of the lake (including still being able to hear the loons at night) and access to the beach and boats of the Highland Lodge, a short ride or nice walk away. Inside the house, the kitchen was very well stocked with a nice large table for group meals. We also used the outdoor grill to cook. The family room includes a piano and a great wood stove to take the chill off at night (the house has heating which we didn’t need). Bedding was quite comfortable. Communication with Virginia was easy and quick and we’ve already told her we are coming back next year. Thanks for a great week!

Stu and family were terrific renters, easy to communicate with and flexible, and they left the house in excellent shape. They were also respectful of the Lodge owners.

Spacious and Cozy

Our family had a wonderful stay to see the fall colors. Our children loved playing in the spacious home and exploring the nearby lake. The views of the forest and lake are amazing. A great place to get away and be close to nature.

Wonderful week.

The house was a perfect fit for our group of 6 adults and 7 small kids. We spent our time kayaking and paddle boarding on lake caspian, roasting marshmallows and looking at the stars. Having hill farmstead, Ben and Jerry’s, wonderful general stores and great farm stands near by made it easy to eat and drink well! We had a great time and will hopefully be back!

We used this house as a home base for a wedding and it was amazing! It is both cozy and spacious and has great kitchen, dining and bedrooms. We loved the privacy, the views of the lake and the access to the water at the super-cool Highland Lodge beach and boathouse. Another major plus is the Lodge itself, which we used for overflow accommodations and lots of fine dining. Our week at this house was truly charmed. Even our local guests raved about the location! We will be back!
