From the host

Our waterfront home is tucked away on Augur Lake, which is a private and quiet area known for its paddling, fishing (and ice-fishing!), and within a 10 minute drive away is Lake Champlain where boating thrives. If you head 15 minutes northwest, you'll find yourself inside the Adirondack Park, with endless opportunities for hiking, mountain biking, skiing, and outdoor adventures. Also nearby is a vineyard that sits on Lake Champlain, a great local brewery, farm-stores for fresh food items, studio galleries, and Au Sable Chasm (which is referred to as "the grand canyon of the east'). Although very close to the hiking that the high peaks region offers, there are also some really great local hiking trails like poke-o-moonshine nearby that will get your blood pumping and make your heart sing with its beautiful views. Caught in-between the lake and mountain life bliss, you will find yourself already wanting to plan your next trip before you even leave.

Our Airbnb guidebook is included in this listing, however you will receive an additional digital guidebook upon booking to help you plan the perfect trip!
