There are many great homes you can rent but if the weather turns are there enough things to do to occupy your guests? Here your plan B is covered. Candlewood Isle is located 80 minutes from Manhattan and sits in the middle of Candlewood Lake which is 11 miles long. Our home is on the top of a ridge overlooking the lake on a dead-end road. The house is not lakefront, however, it is a 1-minute drive to the clubhouse beach. Or a short walk. This home is one of the most private homes on the whole Island. The house features everything you could ever want to do for your vacation, even if it rains the home offers plenty of features to keep you occupied. You can even still have an outside BBQ with our huge covered patio under the deck. There is a pool table, ping pong table, shuffleboard table, 3 bars (2 inside) (and one outside) a movie theatre that converts to a disco, a music studio, and for those that don't play an instrument, there is a professional karaoke system that provides hours of fun. The home has two wood-burning fireplaces, a 1,600 sq foot deck with two top-of-the-line Weber grills & a smoker. There is a nice flat yard as well as a fire pit and patio/bar in the back with a Bluetooth audio system The home has 5 smart TVs as well as audio systems throughout the home inside and out. It also has a hot tub that seats 7 people on the deck overlooking the lake. NOTE: The home is built as 6 bedrooms, however, two of those rooms have been converted into a theatre and the other a music studio. You may have these rooms set up as bedrooms if the current sleeping arrangements don't meet your needs, the theatre has a king sleeper sofa however the house can sleep 12 without utilizing these rooms.

My pleasure to host such a wonderful family. Looking forward to seeing you back at the lake!
Had an absolutely great time staying at this place. The house itself has several great things to do in it that made it feel we didn't need to leave the place during our stay.

We had a small wedding with 16 guests and this was the perfect property for it! It had everything we needed and offered a lot of unique features that most properties don’t have. We had the best wedding weekend here and are so thankful!
We stayed for a birthday weekend with a few other couples and had a great time. There is plenty of space for everyone to spread out and each 'area' of the house is incredibly comfortable (especially the movie theater). If you need anything there are plenty of stores close by and the area is very safe. Overall, no complaints and would recommend to anyone looking for a getaway.

About the host
Hosted by Peter Flower
I'm a Publisher in Manhattan with twin boys, I grew up in lower Westchester where I still reside. I tend to live an adventurous life, travel often, and I am very much into water activities. Wakeboarding and wake surfing are some of my passions, I love to entertain and have jam sessions and movie nights with my friends and family. I built this house to relax and unwind. It's the perfect setting and location.
Why they chose this property
As someone that craves the outdoors and came up to Candlewood Isle as a kid, I always knew I'd one day buy a vacation home here. I searched for a few years to find a home on the Isle that I liked, not many are for sale. Upon finding this home the first day it was on the market I bought it. It had the most important element I wanted, privacy. Unlike most of the homes on the Isle that are on top of one another, ours sits at the end of a dead-end road and one of the few that has a flat yard on the hilly Isle terrain. Although it was not the ideal home at the time, it was the ideal property that sits high on the hill overlooking Candlewood lake. In 2012 I decided it was time to make it the home I wanted and underwent a million-dollar renovation making it the perfect home to entertain my guests. The best thing about this house is it has something for everyone, even if it's a storm outside there is always fun to do inside. It's close enough to Manhattan, 90 minutes and you could always take a bus or train up to Danbury which is close by. During the summer you can rent a boat at the local marina, take in the beach and even enjoy meeting new people should there be something going on at our clubhouse. You will find everyone on the Isle warm and inviting. We are a 2-minute ride to the beach or a 8-minute walk.
What makes this property unique
There are lots of homes you can rent, think about your needs for you and your guests, if it rains does the home offer a plan B for your vacation? We have 5-star ratings from our guests because rain or shine our home offers everything you need and covers your plan B should the weather turn on you. Chefs Kitchen, Hot tub, Steam shower, Fire Pit, 3 Bars, Large flat yard, (Corn hole game) Karaoke system, Movie theatre, pool table, ping pong, shuffleboard, music studio, 5 smart TV's and disco! Outside, Beach, tennis court/Pickel ball, Basketball all a short walk. Enough to occupy every guest. There are 3 BBQ's and even if the weather turns bad you can still enjoy an outside BBQ under the deck which is sealed from the above elements.
