Very pleasant stay. House is incredibly interesting and well appointed. Natural beauty is plentiful in the area. Ferry to NY, day trip to Montreal, exploring the Burlington area, all convenient to the house. Several interesting and easy hikes right out the door… Local friends tell us the tiki bar at the end of the street is worth a visit, although we did not go there…Swedish theme plays out, at every turn.

My husband and I stayed here for a weekend winter getaway with another couple. We absolutely loved our stay. The views from the living room were gorgeous - very relaxing having a morning coffee with the Pellet stove going and enjoying the views out to the lake. The sauna was the highlight of the stay- we all enjoyed it. Wish we could have stayed longer! The host was easy to communicate with and very kind. We will be back!

This is a beautiful home. It is a short walk to Pelot’s Pount walking trails and a short drive to the town hub of North Hero. It has everything you need but is uncluttered and so there is space for you to put your things away and have a peaceful, well designed environment. The large windows bring nature right indoors. The home is immaculately clean and everything appears brand new. The bathrooms are beautifully and tastefully decorated. The deck gives you a view of trees and birds and a view of the night sky. We actually saw shooting stars! A short walk on a gravel path brings you down to the lake where you can sit and watch the sunset over the lake. ( Chairs are provided in the house.) To get to the water you descend a sturdy metal staircase and then a ladder. The water level was pretty low when we were there. The descent may present a challenge if you have mobility issues. This really is a luxury property . The owner checks in regularly by text / app. I would definitely recommend this property.

Tradstuga was a great stay. We rented it for my mother's 70th birthday staycation, and it didn't disappoint. The location was lovely and next to a cute nature preserve with easy paths for walking. We appreciated the amenities and upscale products provided by the host as well as the very Vermont-Swedish gift bag. The host as done a great job of tying the two cultures together in a place that allows you to unwind and chill.

We really enjoyed our stay at Tradstuga. The house had such a luxurious feel with all of the wonderful amenities provided by the host. The bed was really comfortable and cozy and the climate control in the house was great. We spent a lot of time on the deck enjoying the beautiful scenery and nature all around us. Bryan was very responsive to the minor issues we encountered and communication was excellent. We would not hesitate to stay here again on a future visit to this area.

A Stylish Gem in the Lake

We stayed at Tradstuga for a holiday weekend (2 adults 1 toddler). The property is exactly as pictured - clean, new, and beautifully decorated. Bryan, the host, has put a lot of care and attention to making the home feel Swedish, down to decor, plates and mugs, and linens. We appreciated these details and took note of a lot of the homewares to buy for ourselves one day! Guests receive a generous gift bag of local maple syrup, dishtowels, pens, and pancake mix. It's a lovely welcome and we have enjoyed all of the products so far.Bryan's commitment to eco-friendly products is clear, and he provided cleaning sprays, (Swedish!) dishcloths, washing powders, compost bags, etc. The kitchen was nicely outfitted with tea/coffee, salt, pepper, a few seasonings, and Grazia olive oil.The beds are extremely comfortable and we all slept well in the house. Climate controls worked well and kept the home cool in the heat of the summer.Water pressure was good in the bathrooms, and there are SO many towels! A family of four could stay for 2 weeks and not need to wash towels. There are makeup towels, hand towels, and beach towels as well. Bryan has stocked the bathrooms with local Vermont toiletries, which was a lovely touch.We spent a lot of time on the porch enjoying the view and had a really lovely weekend. Bryan was a wonderful host and it's clear he has put a lot of thought and effort into creating and maintaining the property. We look forward to returning in the future.

Tradstuga is a very clean and bright place to stay with very nice amenities, appliances, and bedding. The kitchen has everything you need for your stay if you like to cook your own meals. We enjoyed the nearby walking trails with our dog, and relaxing inside and out and the local farmer's market. It's a private and quiet place- just what we were looking for for a long weekend getaway. The sauna is a nice addition. We would stay here again.
