Throwback weekend

We had such a beautiful, albeit frigid weekend at the lakehouse. Sometime in the 70s my husband was a lifeguard at the nearby beach. We spent most of our weekend eating meals at the bartop table and watching the ice skaters and ice fisherman or driving around the backroads of my husbands youth. Coming back to the adorable warm house after each jaunt was so peaceful. The cottage was spotless, very well equipped and a perfect mixture of vintage decor mixed with comfortable modern amenities. Id love to know more about the property as it is clearly lovingly maintained. Our visit was perfect. I can only imagine how fantastic it would be if temperatures were above 15 degrees! I definitely recommend this sweet little lakeside home any time of year.

Perfect lake house for family get away

We loved our stay at the lake house. The location is great on a quiet little street. And the lakefront and view is incredible! Even the photos don’t do it justice. The house is so close to the lake with a great deck for sitting. We used the dock and brought our own aluminum boat with motor which was a bonus to explore the lake more and fish a bit. My son enjoyed the nearby basketball courts. The living area is nice and open with lots of windows for viewing the lake. It was the perfect size for our family of 4 with the kids each getting their own room. The owner was very nice and the house has everything you could need.

Quaint Lake Cottage

Nicely decorated and well-equipped cottage right on the lake with an awesome view! We didn't get to enjoy the deck and pergola much as it was extremely hot early in the week and then rained much of the rest. We enjoyed watching the neighbors skiing as well as the kayaks and rowers. A laundry would have been nice for a week stay, but it was not advertised as having one, so not a problem. Floors are very unlevel but that just added to the charm! The owner obviously takes great pride in this property. We would stay again. Thanks!

Open format with a lovely view

Very clean and we really enjoyed the big deck . Nice to have kitchen and living room joined for an entertaining space as we had relatives over for dinner. A little weird to have main bathroom off the kitchen on main floor and half bath upstairs with the bedrooms - but that would not stop us from staying in this pretty property again.

Lovely home on the lake

Wonderful home right on Coventry lake. Provided a vacation-like setting while visiting our daughters who are attending UConn. The calming lake setting provided a great backdrop for morning coffee or sunset cocktails.
