About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire apartment to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

Burlington Walkabout Peaceful City Retreat-Walk to EVERYTHING downtown.

You will love this completely remodeled, late 1800's duplex. We have full time tenant/caretakers in the front apt, with the short term rental in the back of the house. It's a luxurious suite, with all the amenities for a relaxing, delightful stay in Burlington! Uniquely situated with a private covered deck and off street parking. This is a one bedroom, one bath efficiency apartment. The open living space has a full galley kitchen & stackable washer/dryer. A high efficiency cold climate heat pump heats and cools the unit. There is a natural gas firplace for ambiance and extreme cold weather provides heat back up to the heat pump system. A very high quality queen sofa sleeper ( Note: NO cross bar ) sleeps 2 for additional guests, maximum 4. The apt comfortably sleeps 4, but the space is small. NO MORE THAN 4 PEOPLE ALLOWED, STRICT FIRE CODE.
NO PARTIES ALLOWED, NO EXCEPTIONS. The 3 season covered porch adds more space to move about and relax, with a sofa, chairs and table. The very large porch windows give you a sense of being outside, with privacy shades-a great place to take an afternoon nap during warmer weather. There is a private, fenced in yard, shared with our on-site tenants/caretakers who live in the front apt. Please respect their space-there is a separate table and chairs near the porch for your use, the rest of the yard/furniture belongs to the full time tenants. PLEASE NOTE: Both apartments have separate, private entrances. You will enter your apt at the rear of the house, through the back yard gated entrance. The SIDE PORCH BELONGS TO THE FRONT APT NOT THE SHORT TERM RENTAL. We've included many nice touches like organic bed linens, marble kitchen countertops, subway tiled shower, heated bathroom and kitchen floors for cooler weather comfort. Included also is a high quality Nikken Air Wellness filtration system-making the "Burlington Walkabout" truly a health and wellness retreat. You have off street parking for max. 2 vehicles. Parking on the right side of the driveway on the cobblestone ( The left side of driveway is the caretakers parking )

We loved this little cottage! It’s cozy and perfectly located just a short walk from the waterfront and amazing walking/bike paths. Great restaurants and shops and even a food co-op are all close by. It was quiet, comfy and we slept well! The host was great and in contact throughout. Would def stay again!

Cozy, Safe & Convenient
Steps from downtown's most delightful attractions, the Walkabout feels secluded and safe. The Walkabout is curated with eclectic touches and top-notch apartment-sized appliances.. It even has a gas fireplace AND air conditioning. We didn't have time to use the picnic table outside, but it looked inviting. Love the off-street, dedicated parking spot. Would visit again in a heartbeat.

Perfect base to explore Burlington and the surrounding area
This place was very clean and had absolutely everything we needed. The host was very kind and easy to communicate with. Location is perfect for exploring Burlington (downtown, waterfront, and great bike rental place within easy walking distance) as well as the surrounding areas for hiking and other stuff. We would definitely stay here again.

Perfect!
I had a wonderful stay! I was visiting my son at UVM and this was a perfect location. I was 5 minutes from UVM and a block away from so much-the lake, great restaurants, bakeries, bike rentals and Church street. I felt safe and comfortable and enjoyed every minute in this adorable, clean and well stocked apartment!

My in-laws stayed at Laurie and Marks place this past weekend and loved it! The place was within perfect walking distance to downtown and the lake. It was a very easy check-in process and the place was spotless and well decorated. Would stay over and over again. Thank you for being so accommodating :)

Burlington first timers
We loved our stay in this cozy and peaceful listing. The accommodations were very comfortable and we had everything that we needed for a fun visit. It was in a great location, just blocks from the lake. There were great places to eat nearby and we didn’t need to drive anywhere. We really enjoyed walking around and exploring Burlington.

Wonderful apt with great location
This apartment was so warm, cozy and decorated with taste. The location was so great and it was nice to not have to drive around everywhere we wanted to go. We love Burlington and will definitely stay here again when we come back! The owners were very responsive and checked in with me during our stay. Thank you!

Lovely alternative to a hotel
I have to admit I was a little skeptical when all the reviews were 10 out of 10. Happily, the apartment lives up to its reputation. It was extremely clean and comfortable, very well-equipped, check-in and check-out were simple, and the location is convenient. I will definitely be looking to see if this place is available the next time I visit my Champlain student.

Great Spot for a Couple
Right in downtown Burlington so it is walkable to that area. Also not a bad drive up to Stowe if you like to ski. Kitchen was good for light cooking if you do not want to eat out for every meal.

It was a great location, parking for my rental car and the amenities they had were great! I could have coffee in the morning to get me going without having to waste money for a few days. It was quiet and I love the aesthetic of the decor. Also close to everything downtown, I walked everywhere that was local. Great place to stay!

Property was warm and inviting. Great place to stay in and watch a sports game but close enough to downtown to walk to everything. Lots of nice extras included such as coffee and creamers and snacks. We will definitely come back.
