Bike path was a quick walk, beautiful views of lake/ bay and mountains! Host's response: We are glad you had a good stay. Hope you can join us again soon! Kelly Stayed Jan, 2024 Review great spot and easy to get to burlington. host was extremely easy to get in touch with. great stay! Christmas Stay Stayed Dec, 2023 Solid Choice This cottage is extremely comfortable. We stayed here to celebrate Christmas with family and to cook Christmas dinner. The kitchen is well-stocked. My only negative in the kitchen is that there are newer stainless steel appliances - stove, microwave, and refrigerator - but there is a 1980's decrepit old formerly white dishwasher and that does not make sense to me. Bedrooms/beds are great, living room area is awesome, and we enjoyed our stay. The only other negative is that there is a strong mothball odor throughout the house, but mainly in the kitchen area. We saw another review that mentioned this, and SkyRun wrote that they "fixed" it, but the situation is still the same. While we understand that wildlife can get into homes near a lake, there has got to be another solution that isn't the noxious odor of mothballs. Additionally, this odor exacerbates medical problems in anyone with respiratory issues. One member of our party has bad asthma and the mothball smell was not helpful. We would love to enjoy this property in summer weather, and if the mothball situation can be solved, we will look into renting here again. One more comment - SkyRun is responsive and checks in periodically to ensure that the stay is going smoothly, which is great. Mark Stayed Nov, 2023 Review Lovely spot for walking/biking on the causeway and trips into Burlington Host's response: Glad you enjoyed the spot! Anytime you're up for more walks, rides, or Burlington vibes, we're here for it. Thanks again, SkyRun Vermont Sara Stayed Nov, 2023 Review This was a great location if you want to explore Burlington! It's only about 15 minutes away. We went to a few recommended (by Sky Run) restaurants and they were fantastic. Also a great spot for staying in Colchester as there were many walking/bike trails nearby. The causeway is a must see and it's within walking distance to the house. The place was clean and had plenty of sleeping room for 4 people. Easy access to get inside. The only negative is that the house smelled very strongly of moth balls. The smell stuck to our coats. Luckily we found fabric freshener and that helped minimize the smell. If the smell doesn't bother you, I highly recommend this space! We had a great stay 🙂 Host's response: Dear Sara,Thank you for sharing your positive experience at our property. We're thrilled you enjoyed the convenient location, nearby attractions, and found the space clean and spacious.We apologize for the mothball smell; we appreciate your resourcefulness with the fabric freshener. Your feedback is invaluable, and we'll address the issue promptly.We hope to welcome you back for another great stay. Thank you for choosing our space! Mark Stayed Oct, 2023 Review Nice quiet spot - comfy with great access to the causeway and bike trail. Well be back! Host's response: Mark, We are glad you enjoyed your stay the causeway is the best.

Their kitchen was complete with utensils and cooking wares. They have entertainment like TV, masters was big. They have a backyard that you can grill. heating system is good. Although our trip was cut 2 days short and I understand the no refund in this place, but it was affordable compared to others so Thanks a lot!

We take pride in ensuring our guests are satisfied and are happy you enjoyed your stay! Kind Regards, SkyRun Vermont Gabriel Stayed Dec, 2022 Review A nice, simple place to stay.

We take pride in ensuring our guests are satisfied and are happy you enjoyed your stay! Kind Regards, SkyRun Vermont Tanis Stayed Oct, 2022 Review My recent stay with my family was more than perfect. The house was very clean and all my questions were answered in a timely manner. Loved watching the sun rise right off the back deck over Lake Champlain . I hope I have the opportunity to rent this fabulous house again. The McKinnon Family Dani Stayed Oct, 2022 Review Property was clean and beds were comfy. However the floor was slanting/slopping which is a sign of foundation/structure concerns. Personally I feel the price per night was too high for this property. Host's response: Thank you for your stay at our property. The floors do slope but it a cottage by the lake and many do slope so close to the lake. We take pride in ensuring our guests are satisfied and are happy you enjoyed your stay! Kind Regards, SkyRun Vermont Robert C. Stayed Oct, 2022 Nice stay Lovely location. Definitely a musty odor throughout but not overpowering. Had all the amenities. Host's response: Thank you for your stay at our property. We have done some work on the basement to combat odor and keep water out. Hopefull this odor is gone. We take pride in ensuring our guests are satisfied and are happy you enjoyed your stay! Kind Regards, SkyRun Vermont Pat Stayed Jun, 2022 Great Location for Biking Had a few days during the week for a quick trip to Vermont. We stayed in this clean comfortable cottage about 400 yards from the lake and about 1/8 of a mile from the Colchester bike path and the Causeway that takes you over the lake to The Champlain Islands. The house is well equipped, wonderful deck to enjoy and very comfortable beds. Pat Stayed May, 2022 Review Place was just as described. Place was very clean and the beds were very comfortable!We enjoy biking and this place located in a perfect place. Quick ride to downtown Burlington or Causeway to the Champlain islands. Great deck for relaxing in afternoon and evening. Rachel Stayed May, 2022 LOCATION! The cottage is large, comfortable, and kitchen is well stocked. The location is great get to Burlington in less than 15 minutes or just enjoy breathtaking VT views on the causeway. Graham Stayed Apr, 2022 Review Comes as advertised. Clean house with updated kitchen. View of lake is mostly obscured by property in front of the viewing deck. Biked the causeway twice. No complaints from me but probably a little too expensive per night for the property. Host's response: Thank you for your stay at our property. We take pride in ensuring our guests are satisfied and are happy you enjoyed your stay! Kind Regards, SkyRun Vermont Craig Stayed Mar, 2022 Review Good location near the lake trail and proximity to downtown Burlington. Aside from of a few minor things, overall a decent experience. Host's response: Thank you for your stay at our property. We take pride in ensuring our guests are satisfied and are happy you enjoyed your stay! Kind Regards, SkyRun Vermont Kathryn Stayed Mar, 2022 Review Great location and easy check-in/out process. Clean and accurate descriptions! Emma Stayed Feb, 2022 Review We had a cozy and fun trip! Slept four comfortably and the living room was spacious for playing board games and hanging out. Great proximity to the Causeway for a beautiful walk and short drive to Burlington and other adventures. We enjoyed the full kitchen and our stay. Franklin Stayed Feb, 2022 Review Great space! Larger than it looks in photos. Cottage is clean, cozy, and awesome location! 10 min drive to Burlington. Lake location on the causeway is great.

Host's response: Thank you for your stay at our property. We take pride in ensuring our guests are satisfied and are happy you enjoyed your stay! Kind Regards, SkyRun Vermont Vanessa Stayed Dec, 2021 Review House is exactly as advertised (though agree with previous reviewers that it does feel much bigger - especially the main room). The path across the lake is so close if your weather cooperates. Even in a snowstorm, the roads were plowed in a timely manner and we had no trouble getting in and out! Master Bedroom had charging cable ready. Check in and out was simple and contactless. Host's response: Thank you for your stay at our property. We take pride in ensuring our guests are satisfied and are happy you enjoyed your stay! Kind Regards, SkyRun Vermont Michaela Stayed Nov, 2021 Review We had a great stay here! The house was clean and spacious. Great location; close to the lakefront and walking causeway across the lake. Great place to stay to be close to Burlington. Kris Stayed Oct, 2021 Review Spotless and stocked well for a family stay. Full kitchen allowed us to cook all of our meals there. About a .25 mile walk to causeway. Great stay! Crystal Stayed Oct, 2021 Review Great little cabin. Visiting our son at UVM and this worked out perfect. *Note-The picture of the water isnt necessarily what you see at the house. You have to walk a little to get to the water. Availability Select your travel dates to view a detailed quote.
