Located in Willsboro, three miles from the Essex Ferry to Vermont, the Vistas offer guests spectacular views of the lake, Vermont's Green Mountains and New York's Adirondacks. The 12-room Victorian farmhouse boasts two sun porches for relaxing and reading, formal dining room with fireplace, charming farm kitchen with working wood burning stove, spacious living room with large field stone fireplace, piano, and entertainment center. The wrap-around porch provides a comfortable setting for watching a glorious sun- or moonrise. Guest rooms as well as living and dining rooms have hardwood floors and antique furnishings throughout. Sleeping rooms are light and airy and offer lake or mountain views; private or shared bath accommodations are available. After a good night's sleep, guests are treated to a homecooked breakfast. Go back in time as you explore the buildings of this once vast farming complex: the horse and hay barns, granary, smoke house, windmill, and well house. A small art gallery is housed in the old granary, and fitness training equipment, in a delightful pastoral setting, may be used by guests. The back of the farmhouse reveals a breathtaking view of the Adirondack High Peaks, glowing fields with an extra touch of beauty added to the peaceful landscape, and a golf practice fairway. A lovely walking area and beach are nearby. Make your vacation or getaway to Champlain Vistas a truly unique experience. Spend a few days or a few weeks and never run out of things to do and see. For the sports-minded enthusiast, many area activities are offered. Enjoy biking on back country roads, hiking, fishing, boating, swimming, golf, or cross-country skiing. Otherwise, you can take the Essex Ferry to Vermont to visit the Shelburne Museum and the many attractions of the Burlington area. To the west is Lake Placid, with its Olympic complex, and to the north is the Canadian border and Montreal, the cultural capital of the far Northeast; each is within an hour's drive. Champlain Vistas is a delightful home overlooking the grandeur of the North; where the mountains meet the lake, where New York meets New England, and where elegance meets hospitality at this charming bed & breakfast.
