About this home
Enjoy spectacular sunsets and direct lakefront living in one of Colchester’s finest waterfront communities.

Malletts Bay, located between Colchester Point and the Winooski River delta, is a lakeside and residential Burlington neighborhood with a working-marina shoreline and pocket beaches. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around the Malletts Bay Boat Club and the adjacent causeway path, where sail masts, launch ramps, and shoreline walkers set the tempo. Low-slung lake cottages mix with newer townhomes on curving roads that follow the bay’s coves. Bayside Park frames daily routines with a boat launch, picnic lawns, and long lake views. The vibe stays outdoorsy, with paddlesports and sunset watching shaping the calendar. Nearby, the Winooski Causeway adds a long, linear promenade across open water.
