Short get away
My wife and I were looking for a quick get away, Keiths cottage was perfect. It had water access to the south bay where we were able to kayak and enjoy watch the bird activity. The home was super clean and had plenty of space to relax. It was a quick drive to the shops and restaurants in downtown Newport. Keith was quick to respond to any questions that we had. I would defiantly stay here again.

Very Comfortable
My sisters and I rented this cabin while visiting family in Newport and Orleans. It was very comfortable for the four of us. We absolutely loved the screened porch. The cabin has everything you could need. The kitchen is well equipped with pots, pans, utensils, dishes, coffee pot, ect…. The only thing we couldn’t do was have a bonfire due to the Mosquitoes. The setting is definitely quite and relaxing.

Peace and Quiet
The cottage is rustic looking but has all of the essentials including a washer/dryer, fantastic shower, loads of hot water, comfortable beds, heat for those chilly Vermont mornings, and a great kitchen. The screened in porch is wonderful. The location is fantastic; so quiet at the end of a dead end but about 8 minutes from downtown and 15 minutes from Walmart. Keith, the owner, is an absolute pleasure. Immediate responses to our questions and wonderful to deal with. You will definitely enjoy the "get away from it all vibe" and the wildlife all around you! Have fun!

Relaxing beauty
My wife and I spent two weeks at the cabin. It is a wonderful place, with an amazing screened-in porch with a great view of the lake, a fully equipped kitchen, and a great location. Keith responded promptly and obligingly to all of our requests. It is a perfect place to relax, the town of Newport has just enough going on, We brought out kayaks and were able o go out on the lake and take them on river trips in the surrounding area. We were 15 minutes from the Canadian border and went over twice to kayak and have pastries! We highly recommend the place for a relaxing vacation

I loved the screened-in porch! We ate all of our meals here, took naps here, spent time reading here. Listening to the birds, looking out at the water, was wonderful. We were especially grateful for the kayak your uncle provided. He was a terrific host!!

Idyllic setting
If you’re looking for a tranquil, stress-free and scenic break from daily life, this is a great place to go. The cabin is lovely—rustic but with everything you need. We spent the majority of our time on the extensive porch that wraps around half of the cabin, soaking in the mesmerizing and ever-changing view of the lake that abuts the edge of the property. Everything inside the cabin was super clean, the beds and linens were very comfortable and Keith responded within minutes to any questions we emailed to him. We also enjoyed exploring Newport and swimming at the beach at Prouty campgrounds.

A week away from it all
We had a wonderful, very chilled-out week at this gem of a country cottage, away from it all. It's a great spot for bird watching and reading lots of books, which is what we did all week! The cottage was very clean, updated in just the right ways, while still maintaining its' original charm. Keith was a relaxed, accommodating host. We left reluctantly, hoping to return again in the future!

Perfect place for a relaxing getaway
Beautiful, quiet place near the water, yet close to town. We biked, hiked and played golf during the days and opted not to go out for dinner as it was so nice to come back to at the end of the day. Plus, the kitchen had everything you need and was a lovely place to cook. We really enjoyed our stay. It was perfect!!

Lakeside Hideaway
We were looking for a property on the water and away from the "hustle and bustle", this property was exactly what we were looking for. Its rustic with a completely screened in porch that is perfect for waking up with a cup of coffee or winding down with a bowl of ice cream. So relaxing. We saw a heron, a mama and baby deer and lots of frogs. Dont hesitate to rent this property you will not be disappointed.

Lovely secluded and tranquil cabin
What a wonderful quiet and secluded location. We absolutely loved the cabin and all it had to offer. The screened in porch was unbelieveable for relaxing and playing endless games of monopoly. Everything was in order upon our arrival and Keith was always quick to respond to any inquiries we had about the property. The only thing I would add to this rental would be a small renters book with small instructions on things like garbage, laundry, and maybe some local information about restaurants and services nearby.

Paradise cottage on Lake Memphremagog
We really enjoyed our stay at this fabulous cottage on a quiet bay of Lake Memphremagog. Very convenient for trips to Newport, restaurants in the area, exploring surrounding state parks/lakes and Magog in Quebec. The owner helped us to get kayaks delivered right to the cottage and we enjoyed kayaking in the bay, larger lake and nearby rivers. The cottage was well-equipped with all we needed - beds were really comfortable, kitchen was well-supplied, and the screened-in porch was fantastic. The outdoor fire pit was a special treat for marshmallows! Highly recommend it and look forward to returning!

Rustic Lakeside Charm
We had a lovely time at this lakeside property in early July. Lake views and access were great--we had rental kayaks dropped off at the beginning of our stay and were out on the water every day. Screened-in porch was a great spot for dining, lounging, etc. Furnishings hewed to a cabin minimalist line and were perfectly comfortable. Kitchen was well-equipped with the basics and we cooked in most meals. All around a really quiet, pretty spot to relax!

Billings Point is amazing! Serene, cozy, picturesque--like going back in time, but with all the amenities anyone could want. Keith and Colin were helpful and attentive hosts--the few questions we had were answered immediately. As avid birders, we need never have left the Point to see everything from wood ducks, herons and kingfishers to mighty Bald Eagles. That said, we enjoyed visiting some of the many nearby features, like Jay Peak, Lake Willoughby, Big Falls Gorge and Eagle Point WMA. But it was always great to come back to Billings Point at the end of the day!

Cozy and beautiful
My husband and I celebrated our anniversary at this beautiful lake cottage. The view of the lake is amazing. The screen in porch was perfect. The cottage was perfectly clean and very well equipped. Communications with Keith were immediate and easy. He took great care of us from the distance. He found out one night was going to be cold so he sent his uncle to the rescue with an extra heater for the bathroom. The fireplace was fantastic! There are many fun things to do besides Kayaking. We went to hike Mount Pisgha and biked the Tomifobia trail to Ayer’s Cliff in Canada. We totally recommend Keith’s place!

Great location. Perfect rustic getaway with a persoanl touch.
What a great place to get away from it all. This little cottage down a gravel road at the end of a quiet point of land brings you back fifty years. There's another cottage nearby, but we didn't hear a peep from them after they mowed the lawn one afternoon. You really feel secluded sitting on the wrap-around porch watching birds fly over the lake. The cottage is perfectly clean with a modern bathroom. the galley kitchen is all you need for meals on vacation. Newer sheets and towels placed out for us were a nice touch. Can't wait to go back.
