About this property

Cozy Lakefront Cottage on Candlewood- Skiing, Hiking, Wineries, 90min from NYC

Just 90 minutes outside of NYC, escape to your cozy lakefront cottage surrounded by nature with endless options and all Litchfield county has to offer. Start your day with a perfectly brewed Nespresso coffee as you watch the morning mist rise off of the lake. Ski or hike the trails at Mohawk Mountain and Thunder Ridge or prepare to get pampered at Condé Nast Traveler’s #1 ranked spa Winvian Farms. Visit the quaint New England towns of Kent and New Preston or simply stay inside, curled up by the crackling fire with a perfect glass of wine or steaming cup of tea.

On the main floor a generous sized, well appointed kitchen and open living space awaits. Perfect for sharing a meal, cooking, playing board games or watching movies as you sink into the couch which doubles as a queen sized pull out bed with gel mattress.

Off the kitchen, walk directly out onto the multi leveled pebbled patio where you can take in the fresh air, cook on the grill and enjoy the lake views and starlit sky. Stroll down the property to your personal dock to watch families of ducks paddle past casting ripples into the water's surface.

After a full day of fun, wind down under the perfect water pressure of the full bath's hot shower and retreat upstairs to either of the two comfortable bedrooms. There, under fluffy comforters, drift off to sleep and awake in the morning rested, recharged and ready to do it all over again.

Great, cozy and stylish cottage.
We really enjoyed our stay at the cottage. The location was ideal for visiting family and exploring the area. Sherman is super nice. And the house had everything we needed and charm to spare. It was winter, so we didn't make use of the lake, but when it snowed one morning, the scene was gorgeous. Thanks!

Lovely home on Candlewood Lake!
So glad we stayed at this lovely, cozy home on Candlewood Lake over a winter weekend. The lakefront house is charming on the outside and fully updated on the inside with a fresh, modern aesthetic. The hosts have thought of every detail and amenity to make guests feel welcome right away. Super-comfortable beds, great kitchen island to sip coffee around, and cool amenities (we loved the espresso machine!). Easy check-in and responsive hosts who are obviously invested in their guests having a comfortable stay in Sherman. So much to do in the area - don't miss New Preston, Port Washington, New Milford, and Kent - hiking, great restaurants, shopping, rolling hills and farms. Can't wait to return!
