Waterfront cottage with amazing views, fireplace, deck, & boat moorage

Southern Point Cottage

Our calendar is updated in real-time & our nightly rates are accurately displayed. Simply enter your desired dates and click 'Book Now!'

This beautiful lakefront South Hero cottage offers breathtaking views of the Green Mountains and Outer Mallets Bay. Boasting close proximity to grocery stores, restaurants, and Burlington, everything you need is nearby. Biking is a very popular activity during the spring, summer, and fall, with the scenic Island Line Bike Trail only a few minutes away. Fishing in Lake Champlain can be enjoyed year-round. Don't forget to bring your kayak or rent one at a local shop to head out on the lake during a warm summer's day.

Come back to a spacious and well-equipped cottage prepared to host the entire family. The eat-in kitchen is well-stocked and has the appliances needed for cooking a hearty dinner after a day out on the lake. The cottage is also perfect any time of year: you'll stay nice and warm in front of a cozy fire on chilly winter nights, or spend lazy summer afternoons lounging outside on your lakefront deck. Speaking of which, soak up the amazing views and relaxing ambiance of Lake Champlain while on the deck, or through the cabin's towering windows. If you're up for an adventure, take the steep stairs down to the rocky beach for a dip in the lake, to cast a line, or launch a boat (the mooring can support a 20-foot boat).

Loved it!
Our family spent 4 days on Inselheim Road and loved it. The house is extremely well stocked for a larger group. There is plenty of space to eat meals together and lounge together. There are also plenty of spaces for alone time. The views, when present, were lovely. (Canadian wildfire haze was present.) The lake is a real joy to swim in.

Great place with a view
This a great place for families with 8-10 people, with lakefront (east facing) deck, private access to the lake and fully stocked with sheets, blankets, towels - like a hotel. Only one shower though. It has heating (of course!), which wasn't clear from the listing. It has a 70s - 80s feel inside, charming and slightly dated. All in all, pretty decent place. Will book again.

Amazing place for a girls trip
My college friends and I have been going on annual girls’ trips for the past 4 years and this place by far has been our favorite rental home. The property itself is gorgeous and has so much charm. Being right on the water and having private access to the lake/beach was a dream, we all wish it was a little bit warmer so we could have taken more advantage. There was plenty of room for the 6 of us to have our own space but cozy enough that we never felt isolated. Every single day of our trip we commented on how great this place was and how we would definitely stay here again in the future. The only “issue” was the lack of air conditioning, which we were aware of from the other comments. However having gone in early October, and the number of fans supplied and the ability to open all the windows, the lack of air condition was really a non-issue. If you’re looking for an aesthetic, cozy cabin to stay in, to have laughs and make core memories this rental should be at the top of your list.

Easy spot to explore
Good rustic home to enjoy the island one. Sweeping views of the lake with access via a steep stairway. House is comfortable with all the fixings you need- full kitchen, clean bath and bedrooms. Only complaint is vacasa themselves- asked for a late checkout(wanted an hour) and they only option was to pay extra and have four more hours (not needed). Ridiculous to nickel and dime like that when who knows what time the cleaning crew showed up since they weren’t there when we checked out at 10… also had landscapers blowing leaves at 7am Friday morning while we were trying to sleep. House = good, vacasa= bad

Be Careful
This house offers a beautiful location and view. Don’t be confused by the information in the listing, this property DOES NOT include air conditioning. There are comments in some reviews about the AC. Property manager was contacted and we were told that previous renters had also called about the AC; we requested pin# to turn on AC but were told “this unit does not come with AC” even though it is in the house.

Terrible! Beds and Cloth Furniture disgusting!
The beds have body dents from (guessing) more than 20 years of bodies sleeping in them. The fabric couches are so old and dirty! We didn’t even stay one night of our four night stay. Terrible!!!! Don’t let the beautiful views trick you!

Nice place
The house is nice, it has a well stocked kitchen and a great view of the bay. There is a barbeque grill even though Vacassa said there wasn't. The downstairs bedroom and bath are nice, the upstairs rooms are sparse and could use an update. The reading loft is a nice touch with some books available for you to keep if you wish. Water access is 42 steps down a cliff face. Okay if you're not carrying anything. Location is relatively private and quiet.

Twin Mothers/Lifetime “Sista’s “ vacation
This home has central air conditioning which was needed this past week. The lake view was amazing! We witnessed a twin rainbow 🌈 over the lake. Plenty of sleeping options for all 7 of us. ( could use a few more comfortable mattresses) Still a 5 star review from all of us.

Lovely lake house
The house was as described in the listing. Conditions were superb and the kitchen was well stocked. Hoping to get back here, we really loved the location and serenity but on this trip couldn’t stay longer. Strongly recommend the house.
