Getting around
Tucked along Eligo Lake in Vermont’s peaceful Northeast Kingdom, this home offers a wonderfully secluded feel—while still being within easy driving distance of nearby villages and attractions. A personal vehicle is highly recommended, as public transportation and rideshare services are limited in this rural area.
The property includes a private driveway with ample parking for up to three vehicles, and there’s additional space for a boat, trailer, or RV—perfect for guests planning lake adventures or exploring beyond the shoreline.
From the house, it’s about a 10-minute drive to downtown Hardwick for groceries, dining, and essentials, and roughly 15 minutes to Craftsbury for small-town charm and outdoor recreation at the Craftsbury Outdoor Center. Outdoor enthusiasts can easily access regional highlights like the Kingdom Trails (about 45 minutes away) for mountain biking and hiking, or head north to Jay Peak Resort for skiing and snowboarding in the winter months.
Scenic country roads make every drive part of the experience—especially during peak fall foliage season. Whether you're heading out for fresh pastries in town, a brewery visit, or a full day on the slopes, getting around is simple and beautiful with your own car.
