Welcome to

Sunset Lake Cooperative

A resident-owned community

Welcome Home!

Sunset Lake Cooperative is a resident-owned manufactured home community in Hinesburg, VT. Sunset Lake Cooperative is conveniently located just 20 minutes from downtown Burlington and 35 minutes from Montpelier. Our ideal setting allows for easy access to Interstate 89 and we are located right on Sunset Lake, great for fishing, kayaking and canoeing. We are a friendly neighborhood for people who love outdoor activities and living in a small town.

Hinesburg is full of different walking trails and loops that let you explore the beautiful wooded areas our town has to offer. Our town is home to many major employers, including NRG Systems, and Vermont Smoke and Cure. Our town is known for its great schools. We’re only five minutes away from both Hinnesburg Community Elementary School and Champlain Valley Union High School.

Sunset Lake is owned by the Community Members who live here – we are a resident-owned community (ROC).

We own it

The Member homeowners of Sunset Lake control the rent and make the rules. On March 22, 2019, the ROC purchased the land and infrastructure, such as the roads and water lines. Now, a democratically elected Board of Directors manages the business of running Sunset Lake Cooperative. Every Member household in the community has a say in who sits on the Board, how we spend our money, the annual budget, and whether we make changes to the rent.

We’re also part of a national network of more than 300 ROCs just like us. That membership provides us with access to expert coaching on how to run our ROC, leadership development and training, communication with dozens of community leaders who face many of the same issues we do, and more. Life in Sunset Lake is truly different than in a commercially owned community – we invite you to find out firsthand how that difference makes living here so much better.
