New Lakeside Cottage near Okemo and Killington

Bright, clean cottage right in the middle of the best of Vermont. Perfect for an athletic family or a couples getaway. Swim and boat from a private dock, walk or bike along the quiet wooded road. A short car ride takes you to skiing, golfing, horseback riding or just about any other Vermont activity you desire.

Or stay home! Relax in a rocker on the back porch overlooking Lake Amherst where it feels cool even on the warmest days. But there are lots of nice places to curl up, on warm days or cold.

Downstairs is an open kitchen-dining-living room with a double glass slider to make the most of the lake view. The kitchen has the cooking basics, plenty of dishes, pots and pans, and a dishwasher. There is also a grill and a supply of skewers and other grill essentials if you choose to cook al fresco. There is no powder room on the main floor.

The master bedroom overlooks the lake. Full brass bed, new Casper mattress, and full bath with tub. The second bedroom has a woodland view. Full bed, new Casper mattress. The den is "cosy" and without much view, but there's a flat-screen TV and a futon couch that unfolds into full bed. The second bathroom has a shower.

In the shed you'll find bikes of dubious vintage and 2 decent kayaks. Also lots of rafts, noodles, and floats. I have nothing to do with this - the collection keeps growing without my help.

I love this little house, and I hope you will too.
During your stay at this cottage, you're just a quick walk from Amherst Lake. The cottage offers a kitchen and 2 bathrooms.

Magical vacation retreat
We had an amazing week swimming, hiking, paddling, and admiring gorgeous Lake Amherst. All of our favorite things were nearby - lovely hiking trails, and maple ice cream. Perfect location, well appointed kitchen, and perfect dock on the lake. Our family loved every moment and we hope to come back again.

Quiet get-away
Just what I needed to get away from it all. The house was very clean & I had everything I needed. The host Mara had great communication as well. I will most likely go back for another stay in the future.

Lovely Lakeside House
My husband and I had a lovely time at this Lakeside house. It was clean, nicely decorated and renovated and had everything we needed (Keurig, Kayaks, noddle's, books, etc.). The host was great at communicating prior to booking and during our stay. Our only regret is that we didn't stay an extra day but we will definitely return.

Great alternative to staying on okemo
Overall great stay. Place just needs a deeper clean. Found lots of food in couches, some in footon. Some garbage left behind in basement. Some pillows had staining. All the non stick pans should be not used because of coatings being badly scratched/damaged. Better off buying stainless steel only for rentals which the did have a few. That is being picky and most are easy corrections. But bathrooms, kitchen, and overall clealiness was good.

Great winter getaway
We enjoyed our stay in this cozy home. The location was quiet and peaceful but close enough to town if we needed to run out. For those with lot of ski gear, there isn't a large mudroom or ski closet, but there is a regular coat closet just inside the door. Furniture and kitchen utensils weren't the latest and greatest, but everything we needed was there. We are thinking about returning in the summer to enjoy the lake!

Just what you'd hope for.
The house is lovely and clean. The screened porch overlooking the lake is a wonderful place to read and enjoy the quiet of the woods. You can walk out your front door and enjoy the stroll down to the Echo Lake meadow and historic site. We enjoyed the privacy and quiet.

Nice little cabin
We stayed here for a couple of days in the fall. The house was comfortable and clean but not well-stocked with necessities such as paper towels, bath soap and dishwasher detergent. (We had to make a late-evening run to the nearest grocery store for supplies.) We lost power several times during our stay, which was not a big problem except that the neighbor's generator is very loud. The lake location and the small private dock are lovely. There are not a lot of attractions in the immediate area but this is a nice setting for a more remote experience.

Cute house on lake close to everything
The house was very clean and cute right on the lake. The location was great for visiting surrounding area. The housekeeper forgot to leave bath towels and we could not reach owner right away. She dropped off towels first thing in the morning. Also all the smoke detectors we disconnected from the ceiling lying open on furniture in each room. It’s a wooden house in the woods. Inquire that they have installed the smoke alarms. If so then we recommend staying here.

Very disappointed
After a 3 hour drive, and finding the main road was washed out, we found a second way to the cottage. Thank god I knew my way around. Upon entering the cottage we found all the smoke detectors had been removed, dishes not cleaned, used bath towels left on floor of baths, beds not stripped and remade, burnt food on stove. The list only gets longer Upon contacting owner she told us cleaning person had been in an accident and was sorry about the cottage condition,as an owner Of a rental property she should have known all of this before we even left home! With that we got in the car and drove another 3 hours home. There were other conditions with the rental but rather just forget this experience, total waste of our only weeks vacation. I had tracked this cottage for 2 weeks before we arrived and it appeared not to have been rented before us, so if I am correct no one had bothered with this rental for quite sometime. Yes there was a major flood event in that area so I would have thought somebody would have inspected the area and cottage to see if it was rentable, and maybe tell us to rethink our stay for another time, which would be a far more honest approach to future renters. There is so much more, but at this point Okemo vally is now off of our rental radar. I personally have been a renter in the Ludlow lakes region for over 45 years and saddened by this horendous experiance. Won’t go back

Quiet water front home.
Home is exactly as pictured. Recommend for anyone that is looking for a quiet get away but near enough to great food and shopping. If you play pickleball there is a court in the center of Plymouth. Mara responds quickly to all inquiries.

Central Vermont Gem
We had a great stay at Mara’s cottage. The house itself is clean, comfortable and perfectly located. We enjoyed swimming and kayaking off the doc as well as walking to the state park down the street. The house was stocked with everything we needed to prepare our own meals and we enjoyed eating on the screened-in back porch. We came in July and though the weather was unseasonably hot, humid and rainy, the forest location and whole house fan made nights perfectly comfortable for sleeping. We would definitely come again. Thanks!

cute cottage near ski resorts
The cottage is very charming and close to the ski resorts (which is what we went for) near a grocery store and some restaurants. The screened in porch overlooking the lake would be awesome in the summer. There is no fireplace as it says in amenities- but there was an outdoor firepit. Check in was easy and we had no problems. The stairs maybe tricky for an older person. Kitchen had what we needed. Perfect size house for a small family.

The house needs a good cleaning, the area rug in entry way has many stains on it, maybe pet urine! The stove/oven needs to be cleaned and the lampshades and paddle fan are covered in dust. The sofas in living room need to be thrown out, they have seen better days! We have stayed in many Vrbo rentals and we feel that this house doesn’t reflect the normal cleanliness that we normally experience. It’s a cute house with lots of potential.
