About this home
Summer is almost here, make it memorable! Great Averill Lake is certainly memorable! Bring the boat and fishing poles with 84' directly on the lake and a large dock! Really amazing sandy beach with glacial rock here and there. Water is amazing, drops off nicely for boat access yet the kids have lots of sand and gentle waterline to play. Exceptional swimming and especially fishing. Kayak, canoe or paddle board, something for everyone! This body of water is always pristine with nesting loons, and is crystal clear to the bottom. The 4-bedroom cottage is solid and bullet proof. Can take a busy weekend with the family and be no worse for the wear. Built with busy summer activities in mind. Top level has private balcony overlooking the lake and mountains. Main floor has wraparound deck taking full advantage of the same, then there is the lower level direct entry from its own deck as well. Comes partly furnished, just bring beach towels! The yard has a very nice, casual grassy lawn down to the water, great place to sprawl out and enjoy summer. Great Averill Lake is over 830 acres and over 110' deep, a glacier-carved lake. It is truly a very special place in the heart of the Northeast Kingdom. Properties on this lake are passed down through generations, this could be yours! Unwind and unplug, here as you have much better things to do! Relax!
