The Tacklebox: Lakeside Treehouse with Sauna & Hot Tub

A Warner's Camp property. We are so excited to share our latest work with you. Our design work has been featured in Homes & Gardens, Travel + Leisure, and Apartment Therapy.

The Tacklebox is a recently restored 1940's fishing cabin, located on a quiet bay on Lake Champlain. Complete with an indoor Japanese-style soaking tub, an exterior sauna, outdoor shower, dock, kayaks, canoe, and a bunkhouse for additional guests. Enjoy direct access to the lake and incredible views from every room.

The perfect place for ice fishing in the winter, swimming, boating, etc. in the summer. The cabin is open year round and is conveniently located only 20 minutes from the towns of Middlebury and Vergennes. Enjoy easy access to numerous restaurants, shops, and ski resorts (Middlebury Snowbowl, Mad River, Sugarbush, etc). Hiking, cross country, and snowshoeing options galore. Burlington, Lake Placid, and Montreal are all easy day trips. A full area guide is available on our site, Warner's Camp.

The main house consists of an open plan living, dining and cooking area, a private full bathroom, plus one bedroom with a queen bed and a luxurious soaking tub that faces the lake.

The bunkhouse, located behind the main house, also boasts incredible lake views. The bunkhouse acts a second bedroom for additional guests, with one queen bed on the main floor, and one double bed in the open loft area. Guests who sleep in the loft area must climb a ladder to access the space. Those using the bunkhouse have direct access to their own powder room, located around the corner from the main house.

The front deck has a large propane grill, a smokeless fire pit and Adirondack chairs, as well as an outdoor dining table with seating for six. To the right of the deck, sits our stunning cedar sauna and outdoor shower, both with lake views. In the warmer months, climb down the steps to our private dock. We provide two kayaks and a canoe, as well as tubes and loungers, that you may use in the lake.

The property is located on the southern portion of Lake Champlain, only 10 minutes from the bridge to NY and the Adirondack Park. Bridport is a quaint small town, home to numerous dairy farms. Enjoy the local farm stands and be sure to grab some Vermont cheddar! You will likely see and smell cows during your stay.
