Peaceful getaway
We have rented this cottage in September 2023 to celebrate my boyfriend's birthday with friends. The Owner was very accessible, answered all my questions very fast before and while we were there. The place is beautiful, everything you need to cook is there, and the view from the kitchen and living room is amazing! The master bedroom is beautiful, private and has many windows so you can see the lake when you wake up in the morning. I will definitely go back!

Relaxing Willsboro Vacation
We greatly enjoyed our stay at Cindy’s Willsboro Bay house, and hope to return. The house is in a great location, and is well-maintained and well-stocked for vacation needs. We found the furniture and decor comfortable and attractive. The availability of kayaks, canoes and bikes was a plus. We also appreciated the availability of air conditioning and a washer and dryer. The house is a short walk to Indian Bay Marina, where we ate a number of our meals. Thank you Cindy!

Beautiful Lakefront Vacation
The online pictures don’t do the property justice. It is far more picturesque and the temperature feels like outdoor air-conditioning in the summer. Plenty of room to feel at home while on vacation with all the amenities you could ask for. Would definitely stay here again!

Family vacation
This is a perfect family vacation house with great views of the lake! The sandy beach area is perfect for kids to play in and they have canoes, kayaks, and stand up paddle boards to enjoy! It has a nicely stocked updated kitchen that has beautiful views of the lake. The three bedrooms are small, but it has a large master off the screened in porch. The one bedroom pictured with a bunk bed is now a double trundle bed. It has a nice outdoor shower that is perfect for keeping sand outside. There’s a long dining room table for everyone to sit and enjoy a meal together while looking at the beautiful lake. There’s a little waterfall across the lake under the little bridge that is a fun canoe or kayak adventure across to the other side of the lake. There’s a restaurant called Old Orchard Place in Willsboro that has really good food. It’s a quick drive to the ferry if you want to head over to Burlington, Vermont or go to the Ben and Jerry’s Ice Cream Factory. Overall great trip!

Willsboro Point
The home, property and location are fantastic! The only negative thing i have to say is, the door knobs on the screened in area are challenging to operate. But that wouldn't deter me from renting again!

About the host

My first visit to Lake Champlain was 7 years ago and I immediately fell in love! This little quaint town keeps me coming back 4-5 times per year. It is the only place that allows me to fully disconnect. My family loves our time spent together at the lake house!

Why they chose this property

This property offers the best of all worlds. Superior location in proximity to all our favorite activities, from paddling to fishing to hiking to golf and more. The small town setting and the quiet dirt roads brings me back to my childhood and removes the stress of everyday life. The Lake and its sunsets are breathtaking, be sure to have your camera ready. Willsboro is filled with long-time owners whose properties have been handed down for generations in some cases. I purchased this property in hopes of passing the legacy on to my family.

What makes this property unique

Swimming in the lake, walking around the point, hiking local mountains and trails, boating, biking, eating & drinking.
