About this place

LakeAmherstRentals~Good Woods Cottage~Okemo Killington~Dog Friendly~Hot Tub~Fire Pit~

Not many of these old-time lakeside cottage gems are left because they just don't build them like this anymore. The cottage offers a unique experience. A quintessential 1930's 1930s-era lakeside cottage that has kept its original rustic charm. We are boutique-style.

Come and enjoy the nostalgia... make memories of crisp winter or warm summer days spent on the lake. Awesome summer naps, colorful foliage peeping, ducks, geese, loons, osprey, eagles, turtles, and pinkletinks, to name a few.... anyone will agree it's a perfect setting for a family gathering, girlfriend getaway, and any celebratory weekends. This lakeside cottage will draw you in, wrap you up, and beg you to stay awhile. This cottage has been updated/preserved/and continually renovated to include modern creature comforts.

There is no other place like it. Quirks are included at no charge!!

$SAVE: No booking fees! Inquire about further discounts.

GUEST OCCUPANCY AGREEMENT - All rental transactions are held accountable to the Guest Occupancy Agreement between the guest and owner. It outlines check-in and check-out times, recycling requirements/laws, cancellation policy, emergency procedures, Acts of God regarding the cottage itself, and things you must know for a healthy, safe, and easy stay. The contract is attached, and we ask that it be returned via e-mail or snail mail before your stay. The owner may cancel the rental at the owner's discretion if the terms are not met. Trip insurance is strongly encouraged and recommended.

Rental Payment Policy & Cancellation Policy Details

• If paying with a credit card, 50% of the total payment is immediately due upon booking. The remaining

50% is due 90 days before commencement. If less than 90 days until the commencement of stay, the

full amount is immediately due.

• If paying by check or cash for a discount, a $200 non-refundable fee (we will invoice you) is required to

hold the dates. The $200 will be applied to the total amount due. If less than 90 days from

Agreement.

• No substitutions/trade-ins of dates. Dates are final and binding.

• No refunds for extra guest(s) charges if they do not stay.

you 75% of your trip costs unless otherwise noted. Please carefully read the fine print of your insurance

policy.

Getting around

Guests will need own vehicle. If winter, snow tires are a must, not all season radials. AWD or 4-wheel drive a bonus to getting around in wintery Vermont. Adding to this, please wear proper winter boots and not "city boots" on your feet or you will fall.
You are responsible to sanding and salting your walkway; there is no way we can predict when ice will form. We will supply the salt and sand.
