Stunning Lakeside home - ideal family getaway or work from home spot

*** Contact marionburch@icloud.com for current specials.

This gorgeous 2,800 SF home is located right on the water (Lake Rescue) with one acre of surrounding land and quick access to Okemo (5 minutes) and Killington (20 minutes) ski areas. It is a perfect setup and fabulous location for a vacation with family or friends. Local supermarket delivery via instacart means you never need to leave the house if you don’t want to! The summer, fall and winter views of the lake and ski mountains are incredible and the location is wonderful for water sports, golfing, cycling and summer fun, dazzling fall foliage and skiing at Okemo is 5 min away or 20 min to Killington. Not to mention snow shoeing, ice fishing and cross country skiing on the lake on your doorstep plus the VAST trails, providing all year round fun!

Our home has stunning views of the lake and Okemo with an entire wall of windows across the living room and kitchen, 20ft high ceilings with huge architectural beams. The openness makes it possible for everyone to feel connected across the kitchen and living room and even out to the deck! This house stands out from the rest with its unique fresh, nautical feel – lots of blue and white to make you feel at one with your surroundings and a seemless transition from indoors to out.

All bedrooms have air conditioning. The house has 3 bedrooms plus open plan sleeping area - a king size master bedroom with an all new en-suite bathroom ; both second and third bedrooms each have a queen bed. In addition the downstairs open plan room has two single beds. In total the house can very comfortably sleep 8 people across two levels with 2½ bathrooms.

The living room boasts a beautiful wood burning fireplace and wall of windows overlooking the lake and Okemo in the distance. The kitchen is open plan with a large table to seat 8 people with windows overlooking the lake. All the amenities you need in a kitchen are provided - gas cooker, new stainless appliances, coffee machine, waffle machine, ice cream maker, blender, toaster - we have them all - and a gas BBQ out on the deck. The living room and kitchen both open onto a beautiful deck stretching across the front of the house and directly overlooking the lake, with stairs down to a patio entertainment area and the lake.

On the main level the master bedroom (king bed) overlooks the side garden and lake through 3 huge windows and the master bath is beautifully decorated with tumbled marble, a heated floor and walk-in shower. The second bedroom with a queen bed is decorated with a sailing theme and architecturally inspired sliding barn door. The third bedroom with queen bed is located adjacent to a full bathroom with tub and shower on the lower level (still above ground).

The lower level has windows overlooking the lake and offers access to the patio and dock through double French doors. This huge open space (almost 1000sqft) has a 65” flat screen TV, ping pong table and two additional single beds (creating a fourth sleeping area) making it a great place for the kids to hang out!. There is also a full laundry room with washing machine and dryer on the lower level.

In summer, we offer the use of paddle boards, kayak and canoe. Our 130' lake frontage is in a bay with shallow water access and offers a protective cove. Stairs off the dock create additional access to the water. In the winter, the mudroom provides ample space for helmets, boots and jackets with a large garage available to store your skis and snowboards.

The village of Ludlow, contains lots of great restaurants with fine dining (if you ever want to leave our home away from home), and Weston, a quick 15-minute drive away, is home to the famous Vermont Country Store (with the best cheese around) and also offers great theatre productions. Nearby, Manchester is well known for its many designer factory outlets and Woodstock, for New England charm.

Great weekend
We had a great New Years weekend. We were looking for a place that had lots of space where we could all hang out and enjoy each others company and this beautiful house did just that. The place had everything we needed The family room with the fireplace was wide open to the kitchen so those of us cooking could still enjoy everyone company. Lots of sitting area for us to play card and games. There was lots of open spaces. The basement also had a nice big tv for those who wanted to watch football. We will definitely stay here again.

Great stay despite challenges from recent flooding in the area
The house was located on a quiet gravel road with plenty of trees around for privacy from neighboring properties. It had beautiful views of Lake Rescue and Okemo Mountain from its long elevated deck outside the main living area and through the windows that extended across the house. The open kitchen and living room had been beautifully renovated with lots of light, modern cabinets, and high ceilings with dark wood beams. Downstairs had a comfortable seating area and an enormous TV. The lake was visible from all the windows. The arrangement of the bedrooms was the only oddity of the house. One bedroom could only be accessed by walking through the living room and up two steps, the third bedroom was on the lower level (which worked out ok, but wasn’t ideal for our family with an elderly mother-in-law who couldn’t use stairs). Though we were disappointed that we couldn’t swim in the lake because of major flooding the week before, we still had very nice week. The owner was wonderful to work with.

Family Vacation
Great lakeside vacation with the family. House was very nice: modern kitchen opening into living area made it a great family environment. Views of lake were spectacular. Despite some rainy weather during the week, we spent a lot of time on the lake - canoeing, paddle boarding, kayaking, wind surfing and fishing.

First Ski Trip made easy
This is our first ski trip with children and it couldn’t have gone better. The house was perfect for my family and friends. More than enough space for the kids to run around and play. A beautiful kitchen to cook in with plenty of accessories. The house was very clean! The house was also 5 or so minutes away from both Okemo sites so no rush or traffic in the mornings and returning home. The property has a great hill for sledding which the kids and some adults enjoyed on our last day of stay. A big bonus that the house has a wood burning fireplace. We enjoyed it so much and there was plenty of chopped wood provided for our use. The owner Marion is so friendly and nice about checking in on us, she was always available by text for any questions and she responds back very quickly. We would definitely come back!

About the host

Hosted by Marion Burch

Host profile image
International family of four, living in New York who love to use this special home away from home on weekends to unwind and re-energize and re-connect with each other.

Why they chose this property

4 hours from our home New York makes this an ideal get away for a weekend or longer. The skiing and riding on the Killington and Okemo ski areas is fantastic and the lake freezes over creating a whole playground for winter activities from ice fishing to cross country skiing or snow showing. The water in the summer is warm and clear, and relaxing summer days on a stand up paddle board, paddling in a canoe, hiking or just lying in the hammock listening to the water lapping at the edge are idyllic.

What makes this property unique

The views from the living room and kitchen are out of this world - with a wall of windows across the whole front looking right over the lake and onto the ski mountain beyond. In the early morning, watch the mist rise over the lake to reveal a perfect reflection of Okemo mountain in the water. If you are lucky, a bald eagle may stop by and pause a moment to eat his freshly caught breakfast.
