Photos and Description of the Lake Willoughby vacation house rental 3 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, custom kitchen, cathedral great room, sleeps up to 8

This unique lakeside retreat was custom built by renowned timber framers, Old School Builders, with artistry and care. Custom sawn timbers, local hardwoods, hand forged steel, are all centered on a massive stone fireplace lit by a wall of glass facing the water. Perched above the shore of the Northeast Kingdom's Lake Willoughby, the home features a large private yard with picturesque rocky ledges and a rustic log staircase descending a refreshing swim. Located between Jay Peak and Burke Mtn., the house is perfect for ski vacations. Other nearby lakes, parks, and hiking trails make for ideal leaf peeping.

Lake Willoughby, also known as theLucerne of America, is considered by some as being the most beautiful lake in Vermont. Located in the town of Westmore, a short disance off 1-91 and 30 miles north of St. Johnsbury, this body of water is known for its crystal clear water, natural sand beaches and great fishing. With a maximum depth of 312 feet, this is also the deepest lake in the Northeast Kingdom, which makes it a favorite of divers. It covers 1692 acres and is bounded one one side by the steep cliffs of Mt. Pisgah and on the other by Mt. Hor. The lake was formed 12,000 years ago, when glacier rivers of ice carved out 'U' shaped valleys and spectacular cliffs of granite in Vermont's Northeast Kingdom. The effect is strikingly similar to a Norwegian fjord. About one third of the lake has lakefront properties. There are public beaches at the north and south ends and public access for boaters. The remainder is Willoughby state forest.

Wonderful getaway

Rob.o.t New York, NY, US
Review Submitted: January 26, 2010 Date of Stay: December 2009
Beautiful home exactly as described. If anything, the pictures don't do it justice. The residence was immaculate and extremely well furnished - from the sleeping areas to the kitchen.

Was looking for a little quiet and seclusion and that's exactly what we found.

The owner and rental manager were both very helpful and made the entire experience extremely smooth and easy.

Would very highly recommend
