Well, let me just let you all know what a special little spot Otter Cove is. I work in San Diego, and my husband lives in CT. I spend most of my time in/out of planes, trains, cars. Having a demanding position and being away from Richard takes its toll. We found the lake thru a few friends, and I found Otter Cove almost 1 year before we actually stayed there. It was charming, PRIVATE, serene, and the wild life was a constant form of entertainment. Grab the one you love, make your coffee, sit on the deck, and allow the day to drift.. While you are there dont forget to have a special meal in The Tree House, rent a boat and Lake Mem will do the rest. Say HI to my bull frogs in the side area. LOVED THEM! We already have a date for next year! Dont miss this opportunity. Thank you Karen and Cliff for your hospitality.

Beth and I had a magical couple of days at your home.
Our stay was relaxing, peaceful and every comfort was available in Otter Cove. This time was my birthday gift to me from Beth and it was without a doubt the nicest present I've ever had. We plan on coming back again to enjoy your slice of paradise.

What a wonderful gem in the woods. After 5 hour drive into 50 degree Vt we were sure that a ski weekend was not going to happen but the temperature dropped and the snow came. We made a wonderful dinner and looked at the most beautiful scene. We have stayed at many places sight unseen and one learns to deal with things that are not as you would make them. This is definitely not the case with Otter Cove. It was so much better than we could have hoped for.
Thank you so much for sharing your home with us. I hoped we've begun a tradition.
Best,
The Mcnulty's

Karen and Clifford,
We arrived on Sunday night a week ago to spend a beautiful sunny week here with not a cloud in the sky and temperatures in 70s-80s all week. While we spent a lot of time here---relaxing on the hammock, sitting on the dock, cuddling onthe couch--- we also explored and hiked a good bit. The first day we hiked up Mount Hor to both the south and east look out, when we got on top, we were met by a hot air balloon! what a coincidence! we also drove to Owls Head and hiked to the summit for even more spectacular views and had a sweet lunch in Mansonville at the Owl's Bread Cafe. Regarding food, we really appreciated Newport's Natural Foods Cafe where we ate lunch almost everyday. The food was hearty, wholesome, tasted excellent and was reasonably priced. we also walked the bike path/old railroad tracks onthe east side of the lake. We rented kayaks from Jim- a great guy with lots of local stories.
Most of all, we would not of come up here if we did not find a quiet, serene, cozy place like this Otter Cove--- a place to meditate, enjoy the view, relax and rest.
Thank you so much for your gracious warmth, welcome, orientation, local direction and the great maple syrup-how can one not have pancakes at Otter Cove? with Cliff's dark syrup?
We would enjoy coming back and recommend this to others

Dear Karen and Cliff,
It will be a sad departure when we leave this land of tranquility. All is so peaceful, so cozy. We sat here for hours just absorbing God's beauty.
It's amazing, when you first arrive to Otter's Cove it immediately becomes your home. The children adapt right away, Roman and I drop our life of chaos at the front door and even Vahlyk, our pup relaxes. Wish we could stay at least another week.
It's time to pack & clean up and prepare for the next lucky visitor.
A sincere thank you from the bottom of our hearts.
Roman, Christine, Markiau, Peter and Andrea & Vahlyk Kolinsky

Karen,
Tony, Rossi and I had a marvelous week here at Otter Cove. The cottage is perfectly designed for romance and frolic. We climbed every mountain we could find and returned each day to this sweet and private piece of Vermont.
Thank you for your kindness and the maple syrup. Yum

Karen and Clifford,
Otter Cove was one ofthe most beautiful places we have ever been to. We caught over 20 fish and swam everyday. The lake was wonderful. We loved the otters. We also saw deer, hummingbirds, kingfishers and a fox. On Rt.114 we saw our first moose. It was amazing.

What a beautiful place! I could not have asked for more...
this quiet October morning sipping coffee by the fireplace and looking out at the lake is the epitomy of "getting away" and relaxation.
The only thing missing was a decent sunrise- the clouds are low today!
Thanks for sharing your lake house with me- I know I'll be back!

Karen,
I have always dreamed about staying in a place like Otter Cove. We couldn't have found a lovelier more perfect retreat than this one for Tom and I and especially for Willow and Spenser. The lake is beautiful and your home is wonderful. We felt very confortable here and very relaxed.
P.S.
The blackberry pancakes and Clifford's syrup were the best!
Thank you.

Chris and I absolutely loved our time here! The house is wonderful: quaint and secluded, and most of all, quiet! We love the views, the critters( I made friends with a couple of very nosy ducks and Chris and I were astounded by the huge appetite of the local birds). Chris and I rented a kayak and took a lovely tour of the lake, we loved the raft and Chis caught some fish right off the dock. The town is lovely and Chris definitely got his fill of the local golf courses.
We had an absolutely fabulous time at Otter Cove.
Thank you!
