About this property

Beautiful Lakefront Home, Great for a Peaceful Getaway...

Beautiful 3 bedroom, 2 bath waterfront saltbox on a small, quiet lake in upstate NY in the town of Hampton (not on Lake George), 3 mi. from the VT border, 35 miles from Lake George village, with a screened in porch.
***If bringing a pet, please read our pet policy and reach out to us via an Inquiry with your pet information, prior to making a reservation.****
Open floor plan, private home, available year-round. Enjoy a good book on our deck while the setting sun reflects onto the water. In the fall, the foliage mirrors onto the lake; in the winter, the woodstove keeps you cozy and warms you up when you come in from skating or x/c skiing. Our leather sectional is a great place to watch a movie at the end of your day or read a book as your kids work on a puzzle on our coffee table. Enjoy the private lake on our canoe, kayaks, paddle boat, paddleboard or rowboat. It's a great family vacation, that can include your well-mannered family dog, if you just can't bear to leave him behind. Please identify the pet(s) you would like to bring and read our pet policy at the end of our rental agreement, and email the pet breed(s) you would like to bring and that you agree to our terms.
Our master bedroom with a plush, king-size bed and main bath area are downstairs, with two additional bedrooms and another bath upstairs, making it easy to share with another couple or family, while still having privacy. You can chill out and enjoy the peaceful setting, or when you're re-energized and ready to explore, Lake George Village is just over a half hour away, with large Riverboats to tour the lake, restaurants and outlet shopping. Manchester, VT is a Designer Outlet mecca, or take a day trip to charming VT towns like Middlebury, Ludlow, Brattleboro, or everyone's favorite, Burlington. There's great Horseback riding and a seasonal rodeo at Pond Hill Ranch just 20 minutes away; Poultney, VT has a rail trail for hiking, dog-walking, biking, x/c skiing or snowshoeing, just 10 minutes away.; beautiful golfing at Milestone Golf Club just 10 minutes away. No prom - weekends or college spring break rentals; minimum rental age: 25.
***The months of July and August require 7 nights w/ Friday to Friday. Occasionally, there are shorter timeframes available (ie, when someone books 10 days) so that may show up on the calendar.
If you wish to bring a pet, please read our pet addendum and provide us with information on your pet(s) via inquiry, prior to making a reservation.

Peaceful location, exactly what we were looking for to be with our grownup children. We simply relaxed, played games, enjoyed the pond and had great food all in the in one location. We enjoyed the front deck, when it got too hot we enjoyed the closed-in porch.

A home away from home

Our stay was exactly what was to be expected as advertised and more! It was a great layout, old yet charming and clean. All the water activity boats and fishing gear made for an unforgettable stay! We loved it so much, we tried to book it again in August but they are booked through summer!

We had an absolutely wonderful stay at this beautiful lake house! The location was perfect with stunning views and a peaceful atmosphere. Waking up to the sunrise over the lake was magical. The house itself was well-equipped with everything we needed. The kitchen had all the essentials for cooking meals, and the living area was cozy with plenty of seating. We loved the direct access to the lake from the backyard. Our favorite part was the private dock—we spent time swimming, kayaking, and just relaxing by the water. The outdoor seating area was also great for evening barbecues and stargazing. The host was incredibly responsive and helpful, providing clear instructions and local recommendations. We truly felt welcomed and would love to come back in the future!

Relaxing Get away

This is our third time stay at the lake. It’s so relaxing to sit on the dock and listen to and watch the wildlife. We enjoy using the kayaks and paddle board on the premises and cooking out on the grill. We have to bring very few things with us as the house has most of what we need for our stay.

We had a great stay. Only downfall was that I was unable to go down to the lake often because of the steep incline. But the rest of my family loved it!!

About the host

Hosted by Helen Krieger

Host profile image
We appreciate you reaching out to us via an inquiry prior to making a reservation, so that we can be sure our property is the right one for you and your family.
We love our times here at the lake, but can only enjoy it occasionally. We'd love to find people that will be able to come up and enjoy this little slice of paradise, instead of having it sit empty, waiting for our next visit. We are empty nesters, until the kids and grandkids all come back to visit, so we're always on the go. When we're not working at our IT desk jobs, we love biking, boating, x/c skiing, kayaking, and just about anything outdoors. We go every other year to Europe on a bike and boat adventure; that's our favorite way to combine our love of boating and the water, along with biking.

Why they chose this property

We wanted to find a lake that was peaceful and not crowded with everyone on top of each other. Compared to other properties we looked at, this one couldn't be beat.

What makes this property unique

We love that we can enjoy it year round. My husband is a swimmer, so once the water warms up, he swims from one end to the other every day we're at the lake. In the winter, our grandkids come up and tube down our hillside onto the frozen lake, and we skate, snowshoe and x/c ski. In the fall, the views of the foliage are great, as well as the hiking at Haystack Mountain just 25 minutes away.
