The Murphy's place on Mallet's Bay was a great getaway for our family of 4. The house had everything we needed and a few extras, like a kids' kayak and a paddle board. The kitchen is well-equipped and has some basics like spices, flour, sugar, salt, pepper, etc. The grocery store is not far, as is the pharmacy. The lake and beach are awesome - easy access right down the sandy path from the back deck. The water is shallow for a while, so our family could hang out in the water all together or head out on our canoe to explore or go fishing.
The outdoor space on the deck is small but highly functional. The back deck table has a great cover over it for seeking out shade and the property has some lovely shade trees as well.
The helpful neighbor made check in and check out easy and even supplied us with dish soap and some emergency benadryl when our son got stung on the face by a deer fly.
My kids asked to stay here again, which is great praise, and may have to do with both the beach/lake access, but also the Netflix/ROKU tv in the living room, which got nightly use. We also used the bike path daily for walks and running - if you have a bike, I highly recommend bringing it!! The ride to Burlington is great.
Overall, a great family getaway location! Thank you!!!
