Relax at the Groovy Lake House situated on 8-acres next to Lake Champlain (no direct lake access from property but 2 miles away), & a short trip to the Champlain Bridge leading into New York and the Adirondacks. Step inside our time capsule home built in 1974 with some fresh mid-century modern updates. Enjoy year-around fun with swimming, sight-seeing, hiking, leaf-peeping, bird watching, cross-country skiing, snowshoeing, sledding, stargazing, pie-eating, and relaxing. Stay and take it easy. The space Great for family get-togethers, a gathering of friends, a writer’s retreat, or anyone looking to get away from the hustle and bustle. This very spacious house has no shortage of places to lounge. The living room features a rotary phone with a bluetooth adapter that will connect to your smartphone; a telescope so you can take advantage of the vivid night sky views or do some birdwatching; and magazines from the ‘70s. In the study, put a record on and turn on the old analog TV for ambience...it doesn’t get any channels, but there sure is something soothing about the glow of a snowy screen. In the dining area, watch the sun rise and play some old-timey board games. Catch the sunset from the sunroom, and get peek-a-boo views of the lake in the winter when the trees lose their leaves. Enjoy the game room downstairs in the finished basement, or cozy up on the couch and watch TV. But don’t forget to get outside and explore all the sights the area has to offer. While we’ve modernized the house where necessary (new furniture, flatscreen TV, some new appliances, fresh coats of paint where needed, etc.), we’ve preserved some of the original 70s elements of the house (such as the wallpaper and original bathroom vanities) where possible. This gives it an authentic charm. But it also means not everything in the house is shiny and new. We ask that guests don’t use the fireplaces in the house to avoid fire hazards. We follow Airbnb’s five-step enhanced cleaning process, which is based on Airbnb’s cleaning handbook that was developed in partnership with experts. We sanitize high-touch surfaces, down to the doorknobs. We use cleaners and disinfectants approved by global health agencies, and we wear protective gear to help prevent cross-contamination. We refer to cleaning checklists to thoroughly clean each room. We comply with local laws, including any additional safety or cleaning guidelines. Guest access The driveway parking area is set back about 30 yards from the house. Guests will need to walk on the path from the driveway 30 yards to reach the house, so please keep this in mind for walking those groceries and luggage the last stretch. Other things to note Basin Harbor is just 6 miles down the road from the Groovy Lake House and offers lake resort activities and entertainment for every season and every interest.
