Lakefront Retreat w/ Large Yard & Boat Dock

Escape to the peaceful shores of Lake Eligo at this sun-filled 3-bedroom, 1.5-bath lake house in Greensboro, just minutes from Craftsbury. With 210 feet of private water access, a boat and swimming dock, and a spacious backyard for fires under the stars, this two-story retreat is designed for families and outdoor lovers seeking the best of Vermont’s Northeast Kingdom. Please be aware that all bedrooms are on the upper level of the home.

Wake up to golden morning light filtering through the trees and spend your days immersed in the calm beauty of Vermont’s Northeast Kingdom. Set along 210 feet of shoreline on Lake Eligo, this charming two-story home offers the kind of peaceful lakefront living that turns weekends into lifelong memories.

Inside, the open-concept layout creates a welcoming space for gathering. Brew your morning coffee and settle into the cozy breakfast nook, or prepare a hearty brunch in the well-equipped kitchen while friends chat at the island. Large windows bring the outdoors in, filling the home with natural light and tranquil woodland views. With three comfortable bedrooms—including a spacious California king retreat and a fun bunk room for kids—there’s room for everyone to relax after a day of adventure.

Outdoors is where this home truly shines. Spend long summer afternoons swimming from your private dock, paddling across the lake, or launching your boat for a day on the water. Evenings are made for grilling in the backyard, sharing stories around the fire pit, and watching the sky turn brilliant shades of pink over the water.

When you’re ready to explore, you’re just minutes from the towns of Craftsbury, Greensboro, and Hardwick and destinations like the Craftsbury Outdoors Center and Hill Farmstead Brewery, and within easy reach of some of Vermont’s best outdoor recreation. Bike or hike the renowned trails of Kingdom Trails, spend winter days skiing and snowboarding at Stowe or Jay Peak Resorts, or browse seasonal farmers markets brimming with local flavor. In every season, this location offers a perfect blend of quiet seclusion and adventure.

Whether you’re planning a family lake getaway, a fall foliage escape, or a cozy retreat, this Lake Eligo home invites you to slow down, reconnect, and experience Vermont at its most beautiful.

Although it rained most of the week, we had an awesome time together as a family. We did puzzles and played Monopoly. The kids fished at the pier and caught two small mouth bass! In between rain, we took the pedal boat out for a spin around the lake and visited Montpelier and the Ben and Jerry factory in Burlington. It was a great family vacation!

Great single family property

We had a fabulous time staying in Hardwick, VT. The house we rented had just about everything we needed. Nice large yard for the kids to play in, good sized bedrooms, a full bathroom so the kids could also take a bath. The lake was incredibly clean and we were able to use the paddle boat that was at the dock. Honestly we want to come back and maybe even move up permanently eventually.

Lovely Location

A very relaxing get-away. Lake is quiet and perfect for swimming and kayaking. The house offered us the amenities and comfort we needed. Close to our favorite trails and shops in Craftsbury and Hardwick. A short drive to Highland Center for the Arts for Enchanted Mini Golf.

Perfect Getaway

I cannot express how picturesque and beautiful this property is, the pictures do not do it justice. The property has everything you need for an excellent escape from your everyday. The bed was so comfy and large and the house was filled with local artists. The location is close to the highways so it’s easy to get to where you need to go!

Beautiful, Serene Setting

The location, access to the lake, and available equipment were a big plus. We ran into a problem when the propane gas ran out, but as soon as we notified the owners they dealt with it until quick resolution.

Peaceful Getaway

The only downfall is not being able to spend more time at the lake house. Both Anna and Abi were great communicators and attentive in hospitality and stay. The lake house was peaceful and relaxing. The lake was cold but didn't stop our girls to jump right in. The walk downhill was steep but manageable. We built a fire and was just fantastic weather and watching the family come together. Great stay.

This could be a gem but needs some changes

What is not clear from the property description is the bathroom situation. There is one full bath on the ground floor, with a tub that has been raised a foot high which makes getting in and out a problem. Then a tiny partial bath with toilet and sink is on the second floor in the master bedroom, so other people must come through the master bedroom. The place is pretty and could be great if these details are tended to. Also, despite putting in beautiful new windows, access the the loveliest part of the property, which is on the water, is not possible. There needs to be French doors and access to a deck on the water. All clean and comfortable otherwise.

Tranquility

If you are looking for a place to totally relax, this is it. It is nicely decorated and well maintained. The paddle boat, rowboat, and fire pit are definitely nice added features. The dock is brand new, and if you like to fish and swim you will be in your glory! Anna provides a very professionally done binder that shows places of interest and attractions in the area. I personally liked The Genny in Craftsbury for breakfast/lunch. I would highly recommend this place if you are in the market for relaxation!
