I recently stayed at The White Owl Cottage in Newport, Vermont, with my husband for a long holiday weekend and it was a fantastic experience. Nestled at the end of a private road, this charming cottage offered exactly what we we wanted- it was lakefront, quiet, and was updated home for us to relax and recharge.
The location is ideal, offering beautiful views and easy access to the lake while only being a 5 minute drive into town. The kayaks and canoes provided were a delightful addition, and we thoroughly enjoyed paddling on the peaceful water. The host was responsive with any questions throughout the stay which was very much appreciated.
For future improvements, the main floor bedroom does not have an in-window AC unit and while that is okay, it would be better (and allow for more air flow) if the ceiling fan was not connected to the light. For the fan to be on, the light had to be on. It wasn’t a deal breaker by any stretch but prevented us from using the fan during the night when we needed it most.
The White Owl Cottage truly provides a wonderful retreat, and I highly recommend it for anyone looking to enjoy a peaceful and comfortable stay in Newport.
