Peaceful Location

Vintage Vermilion is just that. Great cabins in a quiet end of the lake. Even though it was hot there was enough water sports to keep us cool.

Quaint and peaceful

Our family stayed for a few days of fishing and unplugging. We have two teen boys and Vintage Vermilion offered everything it said it would. Wi-fi worked great for the kids who can’t live without it. Cabin was clean and offered what we needed. It’s tight quarters at times, but exactly what we were looking for.

Beautiful quiet getaway

Vintage Vermilion was a fantastic getaway on the lake. It is located on a very quiet bay with little boat traffic and no other resorts or cabins nearby. The cabin itself was clean and had modern amenities (plumbing, electric, etc.) while maintaining the peace and quiet of the natural surroundings. We rented the fishing boat for a day which was a fun way to get out on the water and see more of the lake. I highly recommend this resort to anyone looking for a quiet retreat on the lake.
