    What sort of venue? What do you want to do? Need more info.

    There are lots of nice places along Lake Champlain for all sorts of different purposes, so narrow it down for us.

    Re: Any nice venues on lake champlain?

    Again... what sort of venue? What do you intend to do there? Is this for a wedding? Concert (if so, what kind of music)? Play? Private party? Sports event? Other?

    What time of year?

    Help us help you. Tell us what sort of venue you're looking for and what you need it for.
