Best rental in New England!

We loved everything about our stay at the lake house. Lots of activities to do inside and out. And lots of places on the property to just chill and take in the beauty all around. We can’t wait to come back next year!

Wonderful visit!

We stayed at Katrina's beautiful home with our 2 teenagers. We had a great time kayaking around the islands in Manchaug Pond. Sitting out at the point, just looking at the beautiful hills, water, and sky was amazing. The host was super responsive to my variety of questions. Couldn't be better! Super relaxing. Can't wait to come back for another visit!

Great House with Amazing View

When we pulled down the driveway we were immediately wowed by the view of the lake. The property is huge, private, and totally gorgeous. Our kids are younger and loved playing in the sand and stomping around the shallower parts. The docks would be great for older kid to fish from or jump off. Inside is beautiful - plenty of room, lots of personality. The wrap-around porch leads out to a screened in area that was great for meals. We were looking for a private getaway and this place totally nails it. This place had everything we needed and more. Katrina was amazing and so nice. We can't wait to visit again.

Absolutely AMAZING property!

Wow, I can’t say enough about this beautiful property. We thought it was too good to be true, and it wasn’t. You will not want to leave once you come here! The lake view is BEAUTIFUL! And surrounds almost the entire property! It’s private, quiet, and so peaceful. The owner was communicative and responsive and we had no issues. The master bedroom was huge and spacious, and both bedrooms had doors to the deck with views of the lake. The screened in porch was great too if we wanted to hang out outside at night but didn’t want the bugs! Thank you again for having us and we are already waiting for summer dates to come out so we can book again :) BTW our dog loved it too :)

Every room in the house has incredible views! We visited in the fall, and the scenery was simply stunning — waking up to the sunrise each morning was magical. The property is also conveniently located near Boston and plenty of other great spots to explore.

This was our 4th time at this lake house. This place has become a haven of summer memories over the past 4 years for my family. The house itself is adequate and quaint. There is plenty of room for a family of four. It could use some updating, but we do not rent this property for a luxury home. The highlight of this property is the outdoors. The land is amazing. Because of the lot size it is extremely private for a lake front home as well. The gradual walk in area of the lake is sandy and we always spend a good amount of time on the kayaks and swim platform which is about 30 feet out. We cook smores ever evening at the fire pit, and we love that our dogs can come stay as well which makes this home even more special to us. The owners are very friendly and easy to work with, and I highly recommend this property if you are looking for family fun in an outdoor, serene place.

An absolute hidden gem. If you are looking for serene and private you will not be disappointed. If you are looking for an excellent layout, perhaps for an elderly family member with everything on one floor, you wont be disappointed. So many activities to enjoy on the property. We took the kayaks out!

Absolutely perfect!!!

This is our second time booking at this property and once again, it was nothing short of amazing. Everything between the communication with the owner, the property itself, and the ease of everything was just wonderful!!! Katrina is such a nice and easy-going host, she really made us feel welcomed!!! And the property itself? Words just cannot even describe it. You have to see it for yourself. It’s exactly as it’s described !!! The view of the lake is out of this world and the privacy is just what we were looking for. The fact that we are able to bring our dog is a huge bonus. We caught plenty of fish, grilled some great food, and any time we needed groceries it was an 11 minute drive to the Market Basket! There are also some restaurants and fast food places close by but we barely left the house because we just don’t want to miss out on those views !!! As a side note, our baby ended up having a double ear infection and we took him to an urgent care located 15 minutes away and we had an amazing and quick experience and the CVS was right next door for his antibiotics!! Huge relief for us!! The master bedroom is ginormous with a king size bed and a half bath which made it very convenient for us with our 15 month old baby! We will definitely be booking again this for sure has become our yearly vacation spot !!! Thank you again Katrina!!!!

About the host

Hosted by Katrina Sahagen Ringer

Host profile image
This was my grandfather and grandmother‘s property, so it has a lot of sentimental feelings for this property.
As a child I spent my summers here on the lake with my cousins

Why they chose this property

Golf at the Reese Jones Blackstone National Golf Course - 10 minutes, Brimfield Flea Market-May/July/Sept - 40 minutes, Newport Mansions - 1hr. Horseback riding, beaches, hiking and biking in the Douglas State Forest - next door. We are in southern Worcester county bordering Ct. and RI. Great location as it is near Rt146, RT. 395, RT. 290, and 10min. to the Mass. Pike. We are located on Lake Manchaug in Douglas. The lake is approx. 7 miles around.


There are many vineyards nearby - Taylor Brook to name just one and we are very close to a wonderful section of Ct. Woodstock, Pomfret and Putnam which are full of antique shops. Go ahead... use Google to find your own local attractions... we did.

Douglas and the lake area is like being in Maine without the long drive and the traffic.

What makes this property unique

Centrally located to all main highways, and a Market Basket 10 minutes away. The farm store has great homemade food. Douglas State Park for hiking and biking.
