This is a seasonal 3-bedroom cottage sitting right on the lake, with a laid-back rustic style that keeps things simple and outdoorsy. At just 610 square feet, it's a compact space that makes the most of every corner, with wood accents and open ceilings giving it an airy, cabin-like feel. It's meant for easy summer living, nothing flashy, just what you need to enjoy the lake, the sun, and some good company. The main living area includes a kitchenette with a half-size fridge, a small island with stools, and a smart TV (30 inches) for occasional movie nights. There's no full-size kitchen here, but you've got the essentials covered, and the whole space opens up toward the lake for great views and even better natural light. The bathroom has a stand-up shower and single vanity, and starter toiletries are included so you can settle in without a long shopping list. Bedroom 1 features a queen bed, a ceiling fan, and a dresser. Bedroom 2 is equipped with two twin beds and a nightstand, while Bedroom 3 has a full bed. Additionally, two of the bedrooms include old-school VHS players, adding to the unplugged, retro vibe of the space. You'll have outdoor parking, and there are two kayaks available for your use, perfect for early morning paddles or winding down in the evening. The lake is right out back, and the local bike path is just three blocks away. One animal is allowed, and the space has everything you need to move in comfortably. If you're looking for a peaceful lakefront escape where you can enjoy the water, stay active outside, and unplug from the usual grind, this rustic cottage checks all the boxes. It's simple, it's cozy, and it's all about soaking up summer in the best way.

The space

This cottage sits in a quiet lakeside part of Colchester, just a short walk from the Lake Champlain shoreline. The area has a low-key, local vibe, such as bike rides, evening walks, and easy access to kayaking or paddleboarding. Downtown Burlington is about a 20-minute drive away so that you can enjoy city amenities without the city's pace. This part of Colchester has a bit more energy in summer, with nearby beaches and seasonal spots opening up.
