About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

Family Friendly Lake Front Property on the Water's Edge. Spectacular Setting.

Carver Cottage is only 20 ft from the water's edge and provides the infinity pool effect when sitting in the living room. You feel like you're surrounded by water - it's so close. The sounds of water splashing on the shoreline below lull you to sleep at night and during the day if you so please. Its proximity to the water with its spectacular views makes this property extra special.

The sun-filled open floor plan with lake and mountain views is hard to beat. The main living space has a heat pump for AC cooling in the warm months and taking the chill off in the fall. A full sectional couch plus additional seating are more than enough room for everyone to have a cozy spot to read or watch their favorite shows on the full size TV.

Please note, the house now has a 15 foot screened bi-fold door overlooking the lake. This allows unobstructed view from the dusks at dawn to the gorgeous western sunsets.

Dining is available at the island, the dining table or outside on the patio.

The house has two king bedrooms plus a daybed in the main living space. All linens, towels and pillows are included for your convenience.

Sandy bottom beach is also a rare find in the Champlain Islands. Shared swim raft for lounging with mooring for boats. Paddleboard and kayak included. Pets are welcome although we ask that they are always supervised and not left home alone for long stretches.

This fully insulated year round cottage is so beautiful any time of year, you'll want to move to this quiet little oasis year round! Enjoy evening fires on the patio above the waters edge. Breakfast off the living room on the attached patio will be your dining room for the week if the weather cooperates. I can't say enough about the comfort of this house with its breathtaking western Adirondack views.
