Rockview Cottage: Peaceful Lake Champlain Retreat, Private

Step back in time at Rockview, a summer cottage built circa 1900 as a summer getaway for a local Keeseville family and maintained to this day by that same family. Enjoy Rockview's semi-private cove and sand beach, our 25 foot shared boat dock, dark summer skies, and all the wonders of nature in the Adirondack Mountains. Highlights include a fully screened in porch with a panoramic view of Lake Champlain, a location far away from the noise and bustle of cities (although you will hear a train pass through now and again), comfortable sleeping arrangements, a fully equipped kitchen, porch swing, and our beautiful lakefront yard with whispering pines, birds, hammock, and Adirondack chair seating.

The cottage's main source of water is pumped from the lake. The lake water is safe for bathing and cleaning dishes (both hot and cold water service provided). Drinking/cooking water should be carried in.

Magic!
This is a perfect getaway! The setting is absolutely serene and stunning. The cottage is nestled on a rock overlooking the lake, and is very private. A winding and scenic path takes you down to a sandy beach, in a beautiful little cove. The cottage itself is well supplied and very comfortable! It has a rustic charm to it. The large screened in porch was a great place to spend time as a family. This was an actually very relaxing vacation!

Private Gem
Clean. Chic. Restful. Family camp or couple’s retreat. A private gem on a quiet cove among the pines. Nearby hiking trails, bike routes, swimming and as many active or quiet pursuits as you can fit into your stay. The house is not furnished with modern amenities but washing your own dishes is a worthy endeavor after enjoying a meal overlooking the lake.

Timeless lake experience
Great views of Burlington and the moon coming up over Willsboro bay… Camp is as advertised and well equipped. Very private with access to sandy beach… perfect for our family. Thank you to our host.

Perfect View
Rockview was just what I was looking for - a nice, quiet place for my family to spend a week together on the lake. The cabin was very quaint, and the screened-in porch was the perfect spot to relax. Your neighbors are not right on top of you, and there's no traffic going by. There is plenty of privacy. And we all loved the little cove by the water. We really enjoyed our stay and hope to make it there again.

Lake lovers paradise
It's a "camp" in the Adirondack tradition. Rustic, old, no A/C or granite countertops...think wide-plank painted floors and claw-foot tub. We like amenities when we pay for them anyway but are not "amenity-driven" travelers. Rockview satisfies at the most elemental level. The view, the view, AND did I mention the VIEW? The panorama is absolutely stunning and gives new meaning to the term "binge-watching". The beach is great too and we got good use from the kayaks. I can't imagine a better place to "wile" away the days/nights than Rockview...any time of year!

Charming vintage Adirondack camp on lake Champlain
Rockview is a great rental; clean, comfy, with a vintage appeal. It's in a terrific natural setting right on Lake Champlain. It also has something you don't often find on a lake: a beautiful sandy beach. The Host, Jim, was very accommodating. Great place to relax.

Picture perfect cottage with rock and lake view!
We had a wonderful time. The location was perfect and the cottage reminded us of our grandparents home in our childhood. The lake view from the cottage was awesome and the beach was very good. Kids had lot of fun in the beach and adults too. The pizza from Giuseppe's Pizza Shop was very delicious too. Overall we all had a great time! Thank you again Jim for sharing your cottage with us!
