A very well appointed cabin (kitchen was impressively stocked) right on beautiful Fern Lake. Our family of four loved our time there. We went swimming off the dock, grilled, made smores at the fire pit, went to the nearby state park to swim/kayak, and went to nearby hiking trails. Short trip to Middlebury. Highly recommend this place.

I wanted a place on the water near Middlebury. My son and family come to their home there and this would allow us spend time together. My sister-in-law and spouse from Massachusetts joined us for a night. All thought the place was great. The steps to the water a challenge but manageable. We had great family time (food and drinks) fishing, swimming , watching the loons and being together (much needed laughter). This well equipped rental made our time together a great success.

A peaceful few days with a wonderful view. The property has everything you need so after a trip to the supermarket we were able to relax in the idyllic surroundings. Perfect location.
