About this property

The Lake House

Relax with the whole family at this peaceful place to stay! The lake is a two minute walk from the house. Enjoy a view of the lake as you sit by the fire, or as you play games in the spacious living room. This quiet getaway features private lake access, but is a short drive from hiking trials, local restaurants, golf course, parks and a drive-in movie theater. The University of Connecticut is a ten minute drive from The Lake House.

Beautiful property

The location of this property is everything. It is right on the lake, beautiful views and quite neighborhood. It is well decorated, comfortable and clean rental. Accommodates about 5 people comfortably. Host was pretty quick to respond to messages and had made check in & out pretty easy. Pauline left a cute little basket with water and snacks in the kitchen which added that extra to the hospitality. We will definitely book this property again when in town.

Everything you need for a quiet getaway.

The location of the house to the lake was great. You can sit in the yard and see the lake and it is a very short walk to the beach. Would absolutely stay here again. The host was great at answering any questions we had. A+++

Very nice and beautiful location

Very nice location and house. Really enjoyed it. Only 1 tip: invest in a better bed. This is the only downside. The rest was perfect.

Wonderful home in a quaint town.

I spent three relaxing days/nights here. Great location to UConn so I could visit my daughter. Pretty lake, lake views and the Fall leaves were gorgeous. The house is fully stocked with anything you would need. I didn't use the firepit or outside area but the backyard looks lovely and the house is a very short walk to the water. We went hiking and apple picking and had a great dinner at the Lakeview restaurant.

Amazing stay! Great house with all the feelings of home. Access to the beach was a short walk and having the fenced in back yard for the dogs was everything. We relaxed and also had space to do some work. We were able to have Starlink for internet. Our Verizon cell phone had 5G and 3 bars most of the time. AT&T and T-Mobile were maybe 1 or 2 bars consistently. Mint Mobile was zero bars.Monica was an amazing host and made sure we were comfortable. She left us snacks, household items (so we wouldnt have to purchase them), and the towels/bedsheets were nice quality. We are already looking forward tobour next stay! 10/10 would recommend

Great Weekend

The lake house was great. We had everything we needed (except a baking sheet) for a weekend attending UCONN basketball games. We even got to see snow on the last night.

Thanksgiving and UConn football game

We had the most wonderful time!!! The house is so comfortable and the location was perfect!!! So close to UConn plus Bidwells Tavern and Lakeside Resturant. We did not use the outdoors but it looked amazing! The host was so gracious and very responsive.
