2 Bedroom House in Bridport

So close to lake, cannot have washer dryer! PLEASE don't forget your linens and towels or I will have to raise prices to have cleaning people bring laundry 15 miles to closest facility!!!
Book filled, art-filled lake front colorful cottage. Great Wifi! Sit by the fire pit and watch the stars. plenty of firewood! Watch the eagles and osprey. Feed the chipmunks. Take a vacation from the world. Take a private yoga class with my exceptional Guru cleaning gal, Chessy. Lake Champlain- - 20 minutes to Middlebury-- A cute, 2 bedroom sweet, happy cottage. - gas fireplace, slate beach, stunning mountain sunsets, fire pit, A.C. of course - It's a great place to float and boat, or just sit and have a martini on the deck and stare at the mountains...breath-taking star gazing. There are 2 kayaks and a canoe! Ontheroadyoga.com Great fishing, bass and perch. Right off the shore or in the heavy duty canoe. -Check out the video- that says it all.. pretty simple! full kitchen, everything you need.... spices and olive oil. Private country road which dead ends... so no traffic noise. Just off Vermont Bike touring route. The lake has some weeds, not great swimming, although everybody seems to love floating, boating, fishing-- amazing beautiful drive to Middlebury- galleries, college, bistros- Pickle Ball and Tennis at the Middlebury Recreation Center..- waterfalls, hiking, Revolutionary forts across the bridge in NY State..good starting point for plenty of touring, but this is a place most people don't want to leave. Finish your novel here, or start one. lake breeze keeps the bugs at bay. A fascinating slate beach for beach combing- fossils, arrowheads. Due to the lake being so close to the house any bit of extra care for the septic tank is greatly appreciated... let it mellow if it's yellow? Organic soaps only.
Cozy furniture, good mattresses, good lighting, great deck to grill and sit and eat and watch the mountains and the lake. Designed for romantics, artists, bibliophiles, quiet folk looking for a real escape hatch.
I am a writer and painter and this place is quiet. i mean, quiet, except for the birds. Many guests get some good writing done they tell me. Maybe it's because the lake, so active, so changeable, is right at your door. And of course, it's Vermont. It's funky, artsy, colorful, eclectic. If there is a cobweb in the corner, say hello to the spider. It's a cottage on a lake- with loons, and eagles and foxes and, up the road - some cows!-- The wind blows through the windows, and in ten minutes there might be a bit of dust on the table. It is not a hermetically sealed tomb- you must go to The Marriott for that...
Silent night: Most places, you hear distant traffic, or some kind of man-made noise, a dull vibrating hum, so that although you feel like you are really in the country, you aren't. This is the country. You hear the wind, the crickets, the birds, the squirrels, a fish jumping, and the achingly beautiful train whistle moaning across the lake twice a day. It's amazing to sit on the deck and watch the geese and the sunset and hear yourself breathing. Martini on the deck, reading Thomas Merton or Henry Miller, the lovely viewing of sailboats drifting by and bird watching is spectacular. Two bald eagles nest nearby! quiet fishing at an great inlet across the lake. This part of the lake hasn't many cottages on it, you look North and see only trees for a couple of miles, so you don't feel like other people are breathing down your neck.
There are two neighbors hidden away up the road if you need to borrow a cup of sugar, but you would never know they're there and a cottage up the hill. Apple and berry picking in the late summer and fall. I know where the private swimming holes are up in the mountains if it gets really hot. Also a terrific river falls near Middlebury. You WILL be happy here if you love to hike, canoe, bird watch, bike, sit and watch the sunset, play scrabble, read, write, cook, grill, take little day trips to Vermont towns, tour micro-breweries, sleep, have fires on the beach, build slate castles, do art, walk, talk to chipmunks. -- I like to chat a bit with potential guests so that I can answer questions in a more personal way!! I want everyone to be happy. NOTE: holding tank septic situation. The low flush toilet is not designed for lots of TP. Wastebasket provided for extra needed!! - Part of the equation, cottage so close to the lake and on a ledge!! Thanks for your help!! The cottage is decorated like a house, but it's a cottage about 5 feet from the lake. There is no washer dryer, no dish washer, it's lovely but pretty basic at the same time. pick up and drop off laundry service is available!!

Summary: We had a beautiful, relaxing, & activity filled stay in this unique lakeside cottage with an osprey-level view of the southern end of Lake Champlain. Kayaking, bird watching, apple picking, day trips to Middlebury & Vergennes & lounging around the atmospheric cottage made for a top notch experience all around. Thanks!
