The Ham Fam Lakehouse was lovely, well appointed, comfortable, and the lake view was fabulous! We enjoyed the gas fireplace on chill mornings, and the sunset view in the evenings. The lake was easily accessible and we enjoyed walking the driftwood strewn beach. We had a few minor concerns the first days, but they were immediately addressed and remedied by the management team. Great job! We thoroughly enjoyed our eight-day stay! We would definitely return another time.
We enjoyed the views of Lake Champlain right from the back deck and the town of Burlington. We had the opportunity to take a cruise on the Spirit of Ethan Allen which we enjoyed very much. We also strolled through the Church street Matketplace and visited Ethan Allenâs Homestead
My husband and I were traveling with our 14yo son and college aged daughter and her boyfriend. There was plenty of room for us all to hang out together and then break off to private spaces when needed. The AC unit in the main floor bedroom was very appreciated since we ended up visiting during a heat wave.
Fantastic Property -- Efficient but unhelpful manager.
This is a beautiful house in a idylic location. Our three couples had a comfortable, enjoyable stay - stunning sunsets, water access and nearby bike trails.
We are giving five stars because of the property. We should take off points for the manager, but were so impressed with both the home and the location, it would not be fair the owners to present anything less than five stars.
The management firm, Vacasa was efficient, but almost entirely unhelpful. Pre-booking questions were responded to, but never answered. Simple questions, mattress firmness or location of a bath were dismissed with "we don't know." A request for recommendations of a local place to rent kayaks was met with "search the internet." All responses seemed to be bot generated.
When we arrived on-site, there were no welcome kit, no explanation of how to use the heat, audio system or where to take garbage.
The crowning achievement of the manager was to grant our advance request for an early check in - on our check in day. With a 5 hours drive it was too late to take advantage of a nice day.
A couple of things to know: There are three bedrooms. First floor 2 doubles with private bath and medium mattresses. Second floor two bedrooms have private toilets and share a shower/tub (jack & jill style), one has a firm mattress, the other medium. The spiral staircase leads to a third floor widows nest for great views. The house is well equipped with coffee machine, corn hole and outdoor sitting.
Perfect family retreat! Spectacular views. Lots of kitchen and dining space to cook and eat together. A lovely lawn, that was just the right size for lawn games. We all enjoyed ourselves thoroughly.
A beautiful lake home that is perfect for a family or large group. The ideally located along Lake Champlain and very close to Burlington and lots of Vermont attractions. I would absolutely recommend this place
