About this property

Our family's rustic, roomy cabin is located on scenic Thompson's Point, nestled among cedars with stunning views of Lake Champlain and the Adirondacks, close to the music of the waves and the clear, bright canopy of summer stars. The deck is the center of the action, with a grill and front row seats for magnificent sunsets. The great room features a full dining table, picture windows with lake view, and a newly remodeled kitchen. We have one of the few beaches on Thompson's Point and well as a dock for swimming. The cabin is close to hiking and shopping (Shelburne, Burlington, Middlebury). It's a lovely place to gather with family and friends and explore the rich cultural and natural life of the Champlain Valley and beyond.

The parking area can accommodate 3 cars. Please be aware that there are 36 stairs from the parking area to the cabin, and another couple of dozen from the cabin down to the beach.

Please note we have an 11% discount for weekly stays (7 days).

A deck with a view.

A wonderful beach house in 3 pods. When we were not in the water we were on the deck with the wonderful view. We had a great time on the lake and in the lake. A large well appointed main area worked for cooking and hanging out when we were inside. There are stairs.

World Class View and Cozy Cottage

This cottage on a cliff was the perfect get-away for me, my husband and our three young adult sons. Each son had his own room and we had our own suite in a separate but attached building. The main event is the deck with almost 180 degree views of Lake Champlain facing west for the best sunsets on the lake! The updated kitchen worked nicely as it is open to the Great Room with expansive windows and an enormous picture window. We fished and swam off of the deck every day, took long walks along the dirt road, cooked and grilled stellar meals and played board games in the evening. Although the weather got quite hot and there is no air conditioning, the ceiling fans and attic-type fans kept everyone cool and comfortable. I would recommend this for any reunion, special occasion or just a get-away with someone you love. It is beyond charming with just the right amount of family summer cabin kitch to add to the quaint atmosphere. And — there is no better view of Lake Champlain as we are avid sailors and frequently anchor at Converse Bay for the spectacular sunsets.

Classic Vermont lake camp

Charming location. The lake is spectacularly clear here. The water off the dock is crystal clear. We're avid swimmers so this was a big hit for us. The bedrooms with openings to the deck also have back windows with screens, so the lake to land airflow for sleeping was delightful. The bath linens were clean and fresh. All cleaning supplies (dish soap, dishwasher detergent, papertowels) were well stocked and quality items. This was terrific since it's impossible to remember everything one needs when renting a camp. There were labels when needed to direct us how to turn on a ceiling fan, turn on the outdoor lights, etc. It was clear the property owner took steps to make sure their guests were comfortable. This is a well run camp. The camp is well stocked for cooking and family activities. The only negative for us was that the king size bed was too soft. I know this can be like the story of the three bears. Some people like soft fluffy mattresses, some like super firm mattresses. The pictures can't quite capture this magical setting. It was a delight.

About the host

Hosted by Matthew Baker & Corrie Blankenbeckler

Matthew is a librarian and Corrie works in education. They are the fourth generation stewards of this very special place.

Why they chose this property

My great-grandfather began building this cabin in the 1930s, and it has been affectionately cared for by members of our family ever since -- five generations now. The place is beautiful, restful, simple -- on a shady, cedar-quiet slope in the companionable presence of Lake Champlain. It has been the site of large, joyful gatherings and quiet retreats. It is an ideal location to cook, talk, walk, swim, disappear with a book, recharge the batteries, or catch up with loved ones. There are so many things to explore nearby: hiking, shopping, charming towns and winding, picturesque roads.

What makes this property unique

At the cabin, you are always in the presence of Lake Champlain, which can be comfortingly calm as well as exhilaratingly rough. Few things are more wonderful then falling asleep to the sound of waves on the rocky shore. The stars on a clear night are overwhelming. There are spots to be alone, with the deck and great room serving as common gathering places. The deck is open to it all and morning, afternoon, and evening one can sit and soak it the lake, sky, the fresh air, and feel a sense of rest and refreshment.
