Another great Christmas
This is our second visit to this quiet scenic property. We hosted a Christmas luncheon for a few friends who come from various locations. Everything was as before except now they have added a dishwasher which made clean up a breeze. Our Frenchie, Remi loves that she can look out the windows since they reach to the floor. It was close to New Milford so we could pick up a few incidentals on Christmas Eve. The house is very clean and decor tasteful. A wonderful time was had my all.

Lush and peaceful
The house was full of lovely light and the setting was beautiful by a bubbling stream and expansive lawn, plantings and trees. Lots of great areas to explore nearby including Storm King art center. Hosts were hospitable, communication great, and we hope to return when we visit the area. Thank you!

Country Serenity
We (me and the dog) had an awesome stay at the property. The views from the window were idyllic country scenes and the dog loved running around the property. We explored the area by day and at night we listened to music on the phonograph or caught up on the happenings in the world prior to having a very peaceful and quite sleep. The views in Litchfield County are some of the best!

Very Nice
The house was very nice, clean, and comfortable. Lots of room both inside and out. The kids had fun playing outside. The creek was cool. The air conditioning is neat in that each room has its own unit and can have a different temp setting. It did well cooling the house. Beds were comfortable. Decorations were neat. Lots of character. We would stay there again.

Family Trip
Great property, better than expected. Only issue was that the property is in a dead cell zone, so we had to drive around to be able to get to a cell area since we didn’t print out the instructions.

Why they chose this property

The Creek-Side Cottage is located on a quiet country rode that sits set back on a long hidden driveway with private space covered by trees. The house, first built in the 1870's, was initially the town's creamery! The property boarders a stunning creek where guests can swim and see fish. The creek gently flows through the exterior of the property. The leveled property has a barn where horses, goats, sheep & alpacas once grazed. The barn now offers access to arts & crafts materials for guests. The leveled yard is perfect for outdoor games and activities, some games included in summer months. House includes outdoor dining table, fire pit & wood for the perfect outdoor s'mores roasting! Just a 5 minute walk down the road guests can dine at a local town favorite tavern & purchase necessities at a country store.

What makes this property unique

The cottage has a charming creek running throughout it that sets it apart from other properties in the area. Whether you want to take a dip to cool off or observe the incredible wildlife that lives in and around the water it is the most serene amenity. From most of the home you can hear the creek flowing, offering the perfect soundscape to your relaxing getaway. Kindly note the creek does not have any fencing and children should never be left unattended while playing outside.
