Each of the cottages has 60 feet of lake frontage. The depth of the lot is about 200 feet. The cottages are side-by-side and are two of eight on a private access road. Each cottage rental includes access to a 14 foot aluminum rowboat and a peddle boat (2 rowboats and 2 peddle boats shared by the 2 cottages). The row boats are registered for use with your motor. There are 2 boat hoists available, with the larger hoist having a capacity of 3600 lbs. A public boat access to the lake is located about 1 mile away. Small sailboats can negotiate the bay, but the shallow waters of the bay make it unsuitable for larger sailboats, and access to the broad lake is limited by the clearance of the Swanton-Alburg bridge.
A 60 ft. common dock is located between and shared by the "The Maples" and "the Pines". The beach is a mixture of sand and shale. The water depth increases slowly (about a 1 ft. increase in depth for every 10 feet from shore) making it ideal for children.
Attention fisherman! The Missiquoi Bay features some of the best bass fishing in Lake Champlain. It's not uncommon to catch bass in excess of 5 lbs and northern pike in the 30 inch to 36 inch range are commonly caught here.
Montreal can be reached in about an hour. Golfing is available in Alburg (less than 10 minutes away) and St. Albans (about 20 minutes). There are numerous marinas in the area. Supplies and dining are available in the towns of Swanton (10 minutes), Alburgh (10 minutes), St. Albans (20 minutes), and Rouses Point, NY (20 minutes). Burlington, Vermont is to the south about 45 minutes. About the Area
