Description
Great Averill Lake!! An amazing body of water that will take you back in time. It is Vermont at its purist. This is a double lot with a total of 195 feet of natural undeveloped shoreline. Really nice lot that's not too steep and is user friendly. Cottage is very dilapidated, do not try to enter, but the footprint is right at the water's edge. Reuse this footprint and enjoy all this lake has to offer. One of the most pristine lakes in Vermont! Fish, swim or boat...this is one of the best for this. Also in the heart of snowmobiling with VAST trails close by. Generations of this family have fond memories of the beautiful summers spent at the camp and the magic of the Averill lake. Averill is one of those places where shooting stars and Northern lights entertain you at night and the loons share the pristine waters with you during the day. Now it is available for a new family to build new memories. Come ready to unplug from the developed world and play in this wonderland to unwind and recharge. This is a blank canvas waiting for new energy and vision. 100% wooded lot so privacy can be preserved.

5/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageThis school is an absolute gem (and so is the town)! I had the best childhood because of this town and school. Small yes, but incredibly surprising in terms of delivering the best education for students. A special shout out to Mr. Grittner who went so above and beyond for students individually and the school itself. I do have to say though, almost all the teachers I had (elementary too) were superb- as if the school system has some kind of magical magnet for amazing staff. Ginette Ladd, the Secretary, was/is an extra special and important part of CMHS as well.Other Review12y ago - Canaan High School CTE Program
