Cedar - Wooded Island Cabin with Screened Porch
Stay on a private island in Lake Champlain!
Accessible only by boat, Garden Island is a 30-acre private island offering a rare and peaceful Vermont escape. Cedar is nestled approximately 150 feet from the shoreline, surrounded by mature trees and natural woodland, offering added privacy while still just a short walk from the beach and dock.
Guests enjoy full access to the island’s sandy beach, open meadow, and wooded walking trails. Spend your days kayaking, canoeing, paddleboarding, or taking the kids out on a paddleboat. All non-motorized lake equipment is included in your stay. Swim from the dock, relax in a hammock, or enjoy evenings under a sky full of stars. With no cars on the island, the setting is calm, natural, and intentionally unplugged.
Built in the late 1800s and featuring original wood interior throughout, Cedar feels warm, historic, and authentically Vermont. The cozy living and dining room includes a fireplace for cool evenings, while the oversized screened porch provides generous seating for family meals, morning coffee, or evening card games surrounded by forest views.
This three-bedroom, one-bath cabin includes a full kitchen, with one bedroom on the main level and two bedrooms upstairs, comfortably accommodating families seeking both space and character.
Explore The Area
Garden Island is perfectly situated in Charlotte, Vermont. While many guests come for the secluded setting, there is plenty to explore nearby. Visit Shelburne Farms, tour Shelburne Museum, or hike at Mt. Philo State Park. Enjoy a farm-to-table night out at Philo Ridge Farm and local craft beer at Weird Window Brewing. Just 25 minutes away, Burlington offers shopping on Church Street, waterfront dining, and the University of Vermont campus.

Summary: the island is very beautiful and peaceful. the building is an old camp and unfortunately was not very well maintained. There was two broken chairs and one collapsed the first night we were there. The bathroom was disgusting and clearly had not been cleaned in a while. the bath mat was dirty and stained. The kitchen floor and stove top was so dirty we felt compelled to perform a deep clean before using it. Given the cost to rent this rustic cabin we were expecting it to be clean. We were let down.
