Charming Lakefront Cottage

This is a wonderful place to relax. The cottage is very comfortable and the lake view is awesome. Even though there are houses nearby, the entire area is very quiet. It was nice to see children enjoying the water instead of staying inside playing video games and texting each other. Kathy makes the cottage feel very welcoming, and the stock of supplies she leaves, for guests, is really quite remarkable. We are already intending to book this cottage again.

Kathy was great to work with and very accommodating. She said we really do not need to bring anything other than our clothes & she was right. Everything we needed was there. The deck, grilling out nightly, the kayaks & canoe were all nice enhancements to LAKE LIVING. The people we met (there were quite a few of them actually) were all very friendly. It was a great vacation week in every way

We spend a beautiful week at this lovely lakehouse, and primarily everything that you have read from others is true. All amenities listed were in great condition, the house was adorable, and the lake just right. The owner is quite generous with everything you need. There were plenty of towels, chairs, wood for the fireplace and the grill worked great. We will certainly plan on another week here next summer. You don't have to bring many of the things other rentals do not provide, such as linens, everything was top quality and very clean. It is also very quiet, no motors on the lake, just small boats, canoes and kayaks. The mile and a half walk around the lake was fun as well. Highly recommend!!!

Thank you Kathy!

Great location on the lake.

Use of Canoe, Kayaks and fishing equipment was appreciated.

Plenty of room, lovely comfortable beds (crisp cotton sheets) in air conditioned bedrooms

Plenty of supplies to keep us going

This was our fourth year in a row of staying in "the little red house by the lake" and it was as as enjoyable as ever! The house is small but plenty big enough to be perfectly comfortable for a couple, with a second bedroom for an additional family member if needed. The view of the lake from the dining area looking across the huge outdoor deck is fantastic -- very peaceful yet always changing from one minute to the next. We never turn on the TV because what's outside the glass sliding doors is far better. The description and the photos in the listing give an accurate idea of what this property is. If you like to escape city noise, traffic, and crowds, and you have no problem entertaining yourself without closeby nightclubs, theaters, etc., you'll love this quiet, rural get-away cottage. Oh, and the owner, Kathy, is an absolute joy to work with. Haven't found anyone better in decades of renting vacation homes all over the country. Thanks, Kathy, for another perfect summer visit to Connecticut!
