For the 4th year in a row, we enjoyed spending a few days relaxing at Basin Harbor. Situated along the southeastern shore of Lake Champlain, this wonderful old resort has activities for everyone from golf, tennis, croquet, swimming, canoeing, kayaking, hiking, to just sitting quietly under a tree. In fact we never want to leave when the time comes but... More

Every time we drive onto the property we are at peace. Accommodations in cabins and lodge are comfortable, quiet, and homelike. Don't miss the television, and wifi allowed connections with absent family members. Golf course is in good shape despite the heavy storms of the last few weeks. Breakfast buffet was sumptuous and fresh -- I don't usually try scrambled... More

We're so glad to know that this returning guest enjoyed his visit. We are not glad to know that he wasn't happy with the Red Mill menu this year (it changes seasonally), and will be working hard to make sure it meets his expectations next time. We definitely appreciate learning when things aren't right, so we thank this guest for... More

We travelled to Vermont from York, England and stepped into this wonderful, peaceful and elegant resort. The views are breathtaking, the lake is beautiful and we just loved how the whole place is set up for families to spend real quality time together. I was sad to see the reviews which commented that the club was dated. It is not... More

We stayed here for a conference. The golf course is very nice and well maintained. However, the hotel public rooms and areas are definitely sub par. Much of the outside wood stairs and landings were overly weathered and appeared, in some cases to be rotten. The furniture inside the lobby, restaurant and public areas was old, worn and, frankly, tacky.... More

We regret this guest's impression that Basin Harbor Club is run down. She/he arrived just after a weekend of pelting rain and high winds, the likes of which we haven't seen since Irene. It takes wood surfaces a while to dry out thoroughly after that sort of event. Walkways and decks are constructed of pressure treated wood which develops checks... More

The Basin Harbor Club is a gem. The property has beautiful views of Lake Champlain, as well as great restaurants and amenities. We stayed in a two bedroom cabin with family, which has everything we needed for several nights. The beds were comfortable, the bathrooms were a bit outdated but clean, and the kitchenette and family room allowed us to... More

Basin Harbor is a family run resort with a world class golf couse, a great lake (Lake Champlain), beach, pool, movies, boats to rent, waterski fun, fishing, beautiful rooms, breakfast, lunch and dinner, a landling strip--what more could you want? Not a thing.

I had a terrific stay with extended family at the Basin Harbor Club. The place is beautiful - the grounds, the buildings, the setting are all breath-taking.

How nice that this extended family enjoyed their time together at Basin Harbor this summer.
