The Waterfront

Picture perfect anytime of year.

Lake Memphremagog (pronounced mem-fra-may-gog) is the only lake in New England that is also shared with Canada. When you’re standing at the waterfront, you’re really standing on the edge of Vermont and the United States. Every season is celebrated at the Waterfront – sailing in the Summer and Ice Fishing in the Winter.
