Cozy cottage w/ dock, kayaks, & canoe - come enjoy lakeside living!

Duck out of the daily grind for awhile and come stay in this cozy South Hero cottage on the lake. You'll have access to three kayaks and a canoe, as well as lovely lake views - the perfect setting for you and your guests to enjoy a stress-free getaway in nature.

Located at the end of a narrow dead-end driveway right on Keeler Bay in South Hero, this rental allows you to revel in the quiet sanctuary of lake life with only a little over two miles between you and in-town convenience, like a grocery and liquor store.

The exterior of this cute rental has had a facelift and boasts a new set of stairs that will lead you to the water. Inside, get comfortable in the living room, which boasts a wood fireplace and partial air conditioning, so you'll be comfortable any time of year. Have a seat on the couch and watch some cable TV. Use the free WiFi to get your bearings and find restaurants near you.

When hunger pangs hit, the well-equipped eat-in kitchen has you covered. Featuring standard appliances, this kitchen offers space for you to work your culinary magic and make all your hearty favorites. Dine together at the table for four, or head out to the screened porch in the summer, and savor your meal to the sound of water lapping at the shore. If you're in the mood for a cookout, there's a gas grill on the patio.

If you're interested in stealing away from the hustle bustle of life, you may not want to venture out too far. Take the kayaks and canoe this home offers out on the lake and paddle your way to serenity. The owner's home is right next door, and the dock is available to guests of this rental (please note that there are no guarantees that the dock will be available to use, as the water level changes seasonally).

When you do want to explore the area, make a visit to Snowfarm Vineyard and Winery or East Shore Vineyard to sample their wines. Or try Allenholm Farm or Hacketts Orchard for fresh local produce. And check out White's Beach, which offers a swimming area and a place for picnicking, as well as nice views of the Adirondacks.

No matter when you come to this lovely spot on the bay or how long you stay, you're sure to be transported to a simpler time that offers a reprieve from life's stresses and responsibilities. Book this charming lakeside cottage today, and treat yourself to a rejuvenating getaway.

Cottage on South Hero was clean, well stocked and down a quiet street. We only heard the birds in the morning as we drank our coffee on the screened porch over looking the lake. So very peaceful. The setting sun was the best part.. the lake became a mirror to the gorgeous sunset. Great restaurants.. Wallys sandwiches and bagels.. great. and Pans pizza. both are just a couple of blocks away.

We loved the area. We called Vacasa because we could not find kayaks, someone responded right away. The place needs a bit of updating.

So quiet at the end of the road! Lovely view of the lake. Super convenient for biking adventures in the islands, walkable to Blue Paddle Bistro, easy drive anywhere else. The kayaks and canoe were fun to have too!
We did not use the grill as it was not 100% appealing.
The wifi was on and off a bit but a quick replug of the router got it going again.
The kitchen was well stocked. All the appliances were clean and in good working order. The bathroom, small but very functional, plenty of towels.
A nice home away from home without the headaches of home!

Sweet little cottage with wonderful sounds of the birds, wind and water. Loved being able to take out a kayak every morning and paddle in the quiet of the morning. Home was well stocked in the kitchen and also with books, games and puzzles. Would definitely return to this special place.

A great little retreat during a busy college graduation week!. So much better than a hotel

We had a lovely experience in South Hero. The house was cozy and private and the lake was gorgeous. We loved having a place to crash after a long day of exploring! The cottage had everything we needed for everything from cooking to cleaning to relaxing with a movie!

perfect place to spend relaxing time on a lake doing fishing, kayaking , swimming or just watch sun rise and set over the lake. Grocery store is just around the corner so it is very convenient .

This home was wonderful to stay in. It's not fancy, but it's neat, clean, and the location is great. We were 25 min from Burlington so we were able to do activities there, rent bikes on the island, and even go to NY to check out the Ausable Chasm - a must see if you have kids! Great farm stands for cooking as well. I liked that the linens are provided.

In the end, the lake is the superstar here, you'll definitely need water shoes, but the water is clean and not too cold (in August).

The parking was very bad there was no room for a boat that should be told to the renters not to tow a boat to the home. It's a dead end street no way to turn a boat around. Bed was very uncomfortable, sofa bed was useless. We left a day early because of no sleep. The owner was very nice but the home need to be updated

We loved being right on the water, enjoying the sounds, sunsets and tranquility. Easy access to Burlington and area, and owner provided Kayaks all a big plus!

We were very happy with our stay in S. Hero. My husband was performing concerts in Burlington and the commute was very easy. The house is small but certainly not too small, especially for two people. You can't ask for a better view of the lake. I wish we had been able to kayak as access to the water was very easy.
I would recommend this place.
