Harvey Lake 3BR Garden Apartment-Lakefront-Private Dock-Fireplace -Full Kitchen | Apartment in Barnet

Some vacations are about going places. This one is about stopping. Tucked into the garden level of a private home at the end of a quiet dirt road on the shores of Harvey's Lake, this spacious three-bedroom apartment is the kind of place where the days slow down, the kids stop asking for their devices, and families actually spend time together. There's a foosball table. There's a fireplace. There's a dock. There's no television — and within about an hour, no one misses it.
With its own private entrance, a generous layout, stunning rock walls, warm wooden details, and direct views of the lake from your private outdoor space, this is a genuinely special place for a family vacation done right.
The Space
Step through your private entrance into a cozy, character-filled apartment that surprises you with its size and warmth. The garden level means natural insulation that keeps the space comfortably cool all summer — and air conditioning units in the living room mean you're covered even on the warmest Vermont days.
The living room is the heart of the apartment and the reason families come back. Exposed rock walls, warm wooden details, and a working fireplace give it an atmosphere that no amount of interior design can fake — this is Vermont authenticity. Add a foosball table, a collection of games, and views of the lake, and you have a room that does the work for you.
The Bedrooms
Three private bedrooms make this the ideal setup for families or small groups:
Master bedroom with a comfortable full bed
Two additional bedrooms each with twin beds — great for kids or additional guests
The Bathroom
A large, private bathroom serves the apartment exclusively — with both a soaking tub and a separate shower, it's genuinely comfortable for a family sharing a space over multiple days. No waiting, no squeezing in.
The Kitchen
The full kitchen is stocked and ready — oven and range, microwave, full-size refrigerator, and a complete set of plates, bowls, cups, glasses, and utensils. Everything you need to cook family meals, pack picnic lunches for the dock, or make a big pot of something warm on a cool Vermont evening. A private washer and dryer means you can pack light and stay as long as you like.
The Lake
Your private outdoor space faces the lake directly, and it is exactly as good as it sounds. Morning coffee with the water in front of you. Kids in the water all afternoon. Sunsets from the dock. Harvey's Lake is one of Vermont's clearest and most beloved lakes, and from this apartment you're essentially living on it.
Guests have access to the private dock and lakefront area, shared with guests of the upstairs apartment only — keeping the waterfront quiet and uncrowded. Lake towels are provided.
The No-TV Thing
We made a deliberate choice not to put a television in this apartment. Families who book this space consistently tell us it's one of the things they appreciate most by the end of the trip. There are games, there's a foosball table, there's a fireplace, and there's a lake. Those things tend to win.

The Location
The property sits at the end of a private dirt road in Barnet, Vermont — genuinely secluded, with no through traffic and no neighboring vacation crowds.

In fall, the foliage in this part of Vermont is extraordinary.
