Photos and Description of the Plattsburgh vacation cottage rental
2BR /six persons MAX/ 1 full bath

Heron Ledge Cottages are located on the shore of Lake Champlain across from historic Valcour Island. The lake is nestled between the NY Adirondack and the VT Green Mountains. We are very close to Snug Harbor Marina - Lake Champlain Boatworks and the NYS Peru Boat Launch. The cottage is freshly furnished with a fully-equipped kitchen. Cable TV, DVD player, linens and wireless internet are provided. A phone will be provided if needed. Opportunities for sight-seeing and sport activities abound. We have hosted bass tournament winners. Stay for a week. a get-away weekend or by the night (cleaning charge for stays of less than 7 nights). Week-long rentals are preferred in summer. An additional cottage became available on 3/1/13, so the calendar has now opened up for this summer.

Consider staying for temporary business or holiday/reunion/wedding lodging is available. Nearby activities: 3 golf courses; Ausable Chasm; Ferry to Vermont; Montreal, Canada; Skiing and Rock/Ice Climbing, Adirondack High Peaks; Hiking, Bicycling, Kayaking, Autumn leaf-peeping and fun at the site of two Winter Olympics in Lake Placid, NY.

Bass Tournament Hosts: Bass fishermen like the property because their equipment is kept private and safe. Bass boats can be attached to power and worked on under spot lights after dark if needed. One winning fisherman said that he liked the quiet so that he could concentrate better on his fishing gear and strategy.

Skiing: We are a 45 minute easy drive to Whiteface Mountain. Ski mountains in Vermont and Canada are about 2 hours away.

Cross-country skiing can be done near our property, on Lake Champlain when it is frozen, or at cross-country ski centers

in Lake Placid.

Hiking and Bicycling: People love to go to the different Adirondack High Peaks and then return to lakeside after the hikes.

Others bicycle all around the NY area near us, with some taking their bikes on the ferries to Vermont Islands or mainland

and returning via a different ferry later in the day.

Why Phoebe Everson chose Plattsburgh

In our childhoods, we were both fortunate to stay on small lakes in housekeeping cottages. We found this unique property and saw it as a way to preserve the 'old-fashioned' simple pleasures vacation. Because our home is also here, we can live it and share it!

Nice Lake Champlain Cabin

5 of 5
Submitted: December 19, 2007 Stayed: August 2007
We had the nicest vacation to Lake Champlain and Heron Ledge Cottage. The property was clean and well-kept. The owners were right on hand to give directions, to answer questions and to meet our needs. The location is peaceful and the view of the sailboats on the lake can't be beat. The yard was perfect for our 1-year-old son who was just learning to walk! Be sure to note that there are three cabins and the owner's home on the property, so renting all 3 would be great for a family reunion or group vacation.

We stayed here for a family reunion of sorts. The property is lovely. The lake is beautiful. The cabin was clean, spacious and priced right. I'd stay here again.

Peaceful Retreat

5 of 5
Submitted: April 22, 2009 Stayed: April 2009
We greatly enjoyed our 2 night stay at Heron Lodge. The cottage exceeded our expectations. It was clean, charming and thoughtfully prepared. The kitchen was very well stocked with every necessity needed to prepare meals. The location was peaceful and beautiful. We enjoyed the gorgeous sunrises over Lake Champlain and the view of the mountains in Vermont. The owners were very friendly, yet respectful of our privacy. We only wish we could have stayed longer! We look forward to staying at Heron Lodge again and would highly recommend it.
