Vacation rentals with a kayak in Orleans County

We had an amazing stay at this cozy cabin on the lake in Eden, Vermont. It was the perfect family getaway for us and our kids (ages 9 and 12). The cabin was super comfortable and had everything we needed, but the best part was definitely being right on the lake. We spent our days kayaking and fishing—non-stop. The kids had the best time and didn’t want to leave. It was peaceful, relaxing, and full of simple fun. Inside, the pool table was a huge hit with the kids and gave us something extra to enjoy in the evenings. The owner was incredibly kind, accommodating, and easy to communicate with, which made everything even better. You can tell they really care about making sure guests have a great experience. At night, we played games, relaxed, and just enjoyed the quiet. The whole place had a great vibe—cozy, clean, and easy to settle into. If you’re looking for a low-key, nature-filled escape with the family, this place is a total win. We’d love to come back!

Perfect place. Our family was very comfortable there. Extra touch, like having a Christmas tree up in living room, made an even greater experience. Branden was super quick with responses and helpful.

Kevin's place is by far the nicest Airbnb we've ever stayed at. Everything far exceeded our expectations, and was even more beautiful than any picture could do justice. The house itself is large enough to sleep eight (we were only four), but still felt cozy enough that we never felt lost in it. The entire property is flawlessly clean and perfectly maintained. It's like staying at a postcard quality getaway. Lastly, Kevin is incredibly thoughtful in his dealings with guests, and doesn't overlook a single detail. Thank you so much for an incredible stay!

Our group of 9 found the house to offer pretty much everything we wanted or needed to make our 4 day stay completely comfortable and enjoyable. Our trip was primarily a ski trip @ Jay Peak and the drive to and from the house to Jay and back was not inconvenient or a problem. It helped that the almost 400” of snow received this year @ Jay made for terrific skiing. But again, Alison’s house made our dinner gatherings fun and gave us memories we will cherish for years to come. Thank You, Alison for providing a home that made our family and friends getaway a smashing success for all 9 vacationers!!!

The White Owl Cottage is a wonderful and spacious location on a quiet road. It’s impossible to critique a lake front home with kayaks and canoes; space for s’mores; an expansive interior and a modern home. Hotel level water pressure. TV’s for rain. Toys for kids. We generally have a “one time only” rule to make sure we visit different places, and we may break it to visit the White Owl Cottage again - it’s that amazing.

We stayed here on a snowmobile trip. House is right off the VAST system. Parker Pie is less than 1 mile away by sled and has good food and trail side gas. Place was exactly what we needed; private cabin that could sleep a group of guys after a long day riding.

Couples weekend went great! Patricia’s house was a magical place. Had everything we needed. We all had such a fun time! Would love to go back again someday!

Loved staying at Nicole’s house in Greensboro. Perfect spot right next to Lake Caspian and very peaceful. We loved the outdoor deck! Everything was great!

This place was magical! I lucked out with perfect weather this time of year. The views and the lake were so peaceful and amazing. Laying on the hammock reading my book listening to the birds chirp was priceless. I brought my dog Lola who also enjoyed sun bathing and relaxing on the property. We felt completely safe, the cottage had everything we needed in the kitchen, bathroom and bedroom. Can’t say enough wonderful things of all the details and thought put into this place. So grateful I had the opportunity to visit. I’ll be back for sure!

This cute lake cottage is the perfect place to get away and enjoy everything the lake and area has to offer. We watched sunsets, star gazed (saw the Milky Way), enjoyed the boats that were available to use and mainly hung out on the sun porch that had great views of the lake.

Beautiful cabin. The photos do not do it justice. The lake was so peaceful and we had such a relaxing time as a family. The cabin did experience a power outage for a few hours but it was thankfully resolved. We would absolutely stay here again.

This was a beautiful location right on Caspian Lake, perfect for a family. It was well equipped both inside and out and very well thought out. The cottage was equipped with everything from nightlife’s to kayaks. It looks exactly like the pictures. I would highly recommend it and hope to visit again.

Ryan was a great host and communicated well before and during the stay. We had no issues during our stay but knew Ryan was only a message away and would address what we needed. Location was perfect for our ski trip to Jay. Restaurants in the area were good but the whole town closes pretty early. Not much of a night life but that was ok. Would recommend and stay again. Thanks Ryan!

The lake house was spacious, clean, and equipped with everything we needed. Convenient location and seamless check-in made it a perfect choice for a comfortable retreat during a ski trip. Steve and Kat were wonderful: super friendly, responsive and helpful. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a cozy getaway!

We had such a a lovely weekend staying at Megan's place! The house was perfect and had everything we needed. Loved getting to use the fire pit and being so close and accessible to the beautiful lake!

We had a wonderful stay right on the lake. The house was great and we especially liked being right on the water. A great place to relax with friends. We would definitely come back again. Marlana was very attentive and helpful.

The place was beautiful and a perfect place to be to witness the fall foliage. The cabin was very rustic which is exactly what my wife and I were after so it did not disappoint. The only thing I’d say to keep in mind is that there isn’t much heating on the second floor other than electric heaters so either plan to sleep on the first floor or prepare appropriately if you’re staying in the colder months.

This is a great location for a large group to gather! There are 3 private bedrooms (if you count the loft), plus loads of sleeping places in the bunkhouse. The kitchen is impeccable for an AirBnB with loads of space to cook for, serve, and do dishes for large gatherings - and it's well stocked! The deck and fire pit were awesome ways to enjoy the lake and night sky. It's fairly isolated from neighbors, so we had no concerns about our crowd causing any issues. Definitely a place I would rent again.

What a lucky find on ABnB! We loved the location. It couldn’t have been better- just a walk across the street to the public beach. We learned the history of the home and Claudia’s library filled us in on Lake Willoughby’s rich history . Little pricey but this home has been lovingly cared for. Family oriented space -great for kids! Comfortable beds for 8 with two full baths! In a beautiful location. Well worth it We found Claudia more than generous in offering chairs for the beach and kayaks/life vests for use. She even gifted a lovely book to our bookclub. We hope to come again and stay longer next time. WiFi fine. Some had cell service some did not but not huge issue as Claudia provided landline for emergency use if needed. Thank you for making our stay so comfortable. Kristin

Second time staying at this property as it is truly incredible. We love the lake and trails and general privacy experienced at the camp. Cabins are well appointed and comfortable. This is a good escape destination as WiFi is not reliable. Additionally power and water went out for almost a full day which is common for the area but I would recommend this property add a generator for these situations at its premium price point. All that said certainly recommend and will be back to this gem!

The cabin was spotless, private, and in great location. We enjoyed skiing during the day and cooking ours dinner at the cabin. This was a relaxing getaway for all.

This is a quintessential Vermont lake ‘camp”. Camps are a blend of fun and Yankee ingenuity with everything you need and nothing you don’t. We had a fun but fast 2 night weekend at Shadow Lake. Friday night arrived and brought the two chairs down to the dock from the storage area under the camp. Watched the water turn to glass as the sun started to set and the loons came right up to us. Then headed to Parker Pie for dinner, live music, and the best local beer selection in NEK. Saturday we had breakfast at camp (everything we needed in the kitchen and more) followed by Bread & Puppet museum, the Museum of Everyday Life, and Hill Farmstead brewery. We would have used Michelle’s kayaks around the lake after but it was quite windy and chilly. We hit the Busy Bee for breakfast and then a walk around the lake after packing up for check-out. We loved the amenities of the camp and the personalized welcome note from Michelle.

This was a very nice cottage for a stay in the area. The place has a lot of character and was very comfortable.

If you’re looking for a quiet, peaceful, secluded little get away this is the place to go. I truly miss it already. Everything was perfect and so much to do. The game room is stocked with more games than I even knew existed, and in the main house so many puzzles, books and more games. The kitchen has everything you need to make a home cooked meal. We stopped at Shaws and Walmart in Newport on our way to the cabin, and I suggest anyone else who visits this amazing cabin does the same because I can promise you once you arrive on holland pond you will not want to leave. The whole cabin is so cozy and welcoming with some of the nicest blankets to cuddle up in. Anthony & Toni’s cabin is truly a gem and the pictures don’t do it justice. You’ll have to go see for yourselves.
