Waterfront Lake House - built in 2017 on shoreline & dog friendly | House in Swanton

4 Bedroom House in Swanton
Our family built a new chalet/lake house, and we couldn't be happier with everything the property has to offer. We are renting this beautiful lake house for just a few weeks during the summer while we are away. Enjoy 140 feet of water front, a huge deck for lounging and outdoor dining, all supplies needed for a comfortable stay, a long dock to fish and swim off, kayaks and paddle board, and amazing sunsets.
We built this 2,500 sq ft home from scratch, and are looking for some responsible people to rent out this amazing location. We also finished the basement in 2022: additional bedroom (#4), additional full bath (#3), and TV Lounge area for those rainy days. Located on Maquam Shore in Swanton, VT, interstate 89 is only 10 mins away, 45 minutes to Burlington VT, and 75 minutes to Montreal.
Starting in June, we require a four (4) night minimum stay with check in / check out occurring any day of the week. Then for peak summer, starting in July through August 30th we request a seven night stay with check in / check out on Saturdays. We then switch back to 4 night minimum stay beginning August 30th through the Fall until end of Oct. Check in / check out any day of the week. For payment, we request 50% of payment upon booking and the remaining 50% payment due 45 days prior to your arrival date.
We allow friendly dogs per request ($100 per pet fee), but no cats or other pets allowed. Please let us know if you plan to bring your dog(s).
We are taking all necessary steps to eliminate bugs & spiders in and around the house. That being said, this is a house on the lake, so there will always be bugs to deal with.
ACTIVITIES:
- Activities: There is great fishing right off the dock (we provide a couple fishing rods/reels & tackle). There are many fishing boats in the area looking for bass. Also take advantage of our onsite water toys (2 adult kayaks, 1 child kayak, and a adult paddle board) and head out on the lake for an adventure!
- Bringing your own boat: While there is a dock, it is not ideal for tying up a boat (if you plan to bring one). The lake can become very wavy / windy where we are located, and we would not recommend having a boat tied to the dock during a storm (for both the safety of your boat and for our dock). There are State boat launches near by to access the lake with a boat if you use a trailer to put in / remove your boat each day. There is also a new marina in St Albans Bay (Saint Albans Bay Marina about a 8 min drive) where you could rent a boat slip during your stay. They also have pontoon boats & jet skis you can rent daily.
- Golf: Champlain Country Club is less than 10 mins away. Great golf course!
- Dining: There is a variety of restaurants and shopping options in St. Albans (15 mins away). We provide recommendations upon arrival.
- Clean Lake Champlain for swimming. Please bring swimming shoes, as the beach and swimming area is rocky. But the lake water is very clean where we are located, and we typically avoid any algae break outs that occur in bays or other areas on Lake Champlain.
- Amazing sunsets by the fire pit! (firewood not included)
