Guide

Approach and anchoring

Approach across open lake water from the south. The lake is non-tidal, so depths stay constant. Holding is on mud, which sets well once the anchor is dug in. The spot is sheltered from south-east through south-west winds and open to the north, so it suits a settled forecast or a southerly blow rather than a northerly.

Practical

No facilities at the anchorage itself beyond fresh water. Burlington Harbor Marina lies about 4 nautical miles south and Ferry Dock Marina about 4.4 nautical miles south, both with fuel, showers and provisioning ashore in Burlington.

Ashore

Burlington is the largest city on Lake Champlain and sits about 4 nautical miles south. Church Street Marketplace, a pedestrian shopping street, and the waterfront bike path along the old rail line are both reached from the city marinas.
