Memphremagog Rentals LLC

Memphremagog Rentals LLC is a real estate agent in Newport, VT, providing residential and commercial property rentals throughout Vermont's Northeast Kingdom. The company rents apartments, single family homes, storefronts, and office space across Orleans and Caledonia counties, serving tenants in towns including Derby, Derby Line, Lyndonville, Newport, Newport Center, North Troy, and Orleans. While the business does not currently hold a customer rating, it has served the region with rental housing for decades.

Memphremagog Rentals was established in 1981 by Doug and Vivian Spates, native Vermonters who grew up in Newport and Island Pond. The company owns several hundred rental units, with a primary emphasis on residential housing alongside a selection of commercial locations. Their full-time staff includes a knowledgeable office crew and a professional maintenance team made up of an oil and propane specialist, a plumbing specialist, several carpenters, and a crew of painters. Office hours run from 8:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. Monday through Friday, with on-call coverage available 24/7, 365 days a year. The business name comes from "Memphremagog," an Abenaki word meaning "beautiful water," taken from the lake that stretches from Newport across the Canadian border toward Magog, Quebec.

The office sits on 3rd Street in Newport, within walking distance of the Orleans County Superior Court, the Orleans County Courthouse, Newport City Hall, and the University of Vermont, with Main Street also nearby.

After more than forty years of continuous operation under the same ownership, Memphremagog Rentals remains one of the larger locally owned rental providers serving the Northeast Kingdom.
