This incredibly unique house sits hanging over the edge of Lake Rescue in Ludlow. It offers a large deep-water dock (between May and late October), floating swim dock, 180 degree lake views from inside and from the large deck that runs the length of property. The house sits one mile from Okemo and Jackson Gore, making it perfectly situated for easy skier-drop-off and pick-up (to beat parking situation at mountain!)
The house has 3 Bedrooms (one master with Queen, one guest with two twin beds (that can be pushed together as well), one guest with a pair of bunk beds (4 kids). This house is clean and well-cared for / maintained. This is not a "high end ski-motif-perfection" cabin-vibe house - but rather a genuine VT ski-house / lake house vibe.
As you sit in the main room (downstairs), you look out and see 180 degrees of lake about 8 feet below you. It's even beautiful on a rainy day!
The right renters:
It is a unique house that offers a lot for adults or families that love outdoor activities. We are mindful about WHO will be renting, so we like to have a phone conversation with prospective renters (the first time) to talk about safety and rules (life jackets for kayaks, using and caring for the hot tub, etc.). It is not going to be a great house for those with small toddlers (ie with deck and lake right there), or for elderly guests who may not want to go up the stairs several times a day back to the driveway.
Rental Includes:
- Lifejackets (required for kayaking / paddle boarding)
- 2 kayaks
- 2 Kids' Kayaks
- 2 paddle boards
- Adirondack chairs
- Hot Tub (rules apply)
I will be adding more photos soon to show the bedrooms and bathrooms (all current photos I have show our kids in them....), but a quick description is that they are clean and well cared for, 'no-frills' and simple / straightforward rooms.
PLEASE NOTE: This house is NOT a good house for those with trouble going up and down stairs, simply because of how it sits on the lake - i.e. you pull in the driveway to the house, but the house is not visible because the top of the house sits BELOW the level of the driveway, and you get to the house by walking down the stairs from the driveway. It isn't super far, but definitely not ideal for anyone with difficulty walking, etc.
