Spacious Classic Lakefront Home with jet tub

4.98 out of 5 average rating, 55 reviews3 months ago

I came here in the dead of winter for a writer's retreat with a fellow writer- AND I WOULD DO IT AGAIN! It was a beautiful and inspiring place to write. Perched on Andover Lake, it was too cold to frolic outside but that was actually liberating. There was a rocking chair-ottoman combo in the master bedroom looking out on the lake and watching it freeze while I worked on some writing was so peaceful and perfect. When I needed to switch it up, there was a writer's desk with the same view and I can not overstate how nice and productive it was to work from it. I am sure in the summer it's a really fun stay (there were kayaks and a dock for swimming) but I actually loved being isolated in such an idyllic place. It's near a few other homes but the road was low traffic enough for a cold weather run around half the lake. Marcie was super helpful with suggestions for places to eat. We didn't actually use the recs - but that only speaks to how nice the house was and how hard it was to leave!

The house was exactly as listed. Our group was two adults and 3 kids. The kitchen had what we needed to cook meals, bake cookies and make milkshakes. The beds were comfy. The showers were hot with good water pressure for all. We would stay here again!

The Lakeside, New Waterfront Home on Beach Pond

5 out of 5 average rating, 4 reviews2 months ago

The house was beautiful and scenery breathtaking. We loved watching the ice fishing, skating and go carting on the lake! We even went out on the frozen lake! It was close to my daughter’s home in Voluntown…. Only 4 minutes away! The kitchen was well stocked and we had everything we needed. They went above and beyond as we were there to celebrate my granddaughters’ first birthday! They left a gift for her and some welcome gifts for us too! Amazing!! They brought a table and chairs for extra seating!! Phil and Staci were amazing hosts and always responsive. We would definitely consider staying here again.

Water front home with lake amenities

5 out of 5 average rating, 52 reviews3 months ago

We wanted a place to gather with our adult children and 2 very young grandchildren. The layout provided sleep and bathroom space for each family that gave privacy. The open concept living-kitchen space helped us feel like we were together and sharing in the cooking and child care. Even in winter the lake view is peaceful and lovely. Cozy, well equipped, and the lake vibe made this a wonderful family get away. So glad we chose the lake house for our Holiday get together.

The place was nice. Our stay was peaceful and we were allowed to bring our pet dog which was greatly appreciated. We were able to find the place easily and getting in the door was good too. The beds were comfortable and we were able to sleep well. The hot water heater worked exceptionally well and we had no problems with hot water. The wifi worked very well and we were able to connect to the internet with ease. We even saw a beautiful fox!! Thank you for a great stay.

Cozy waterfront houseboat with views on views !

5 out of 5 average rating, 62 reviews1 week ago

Danielle’s house boat was just perfect. We came for a weekend get away for our 1st Anniversary and absolutely loved it. The house boat was clean, comfortable, and nicely decorated. The river was peaceful and serene. We’d love to come back in warmer weather to take advantage of the kayaks and paddle boards they provide. She was very resourceful with local recommendations. We loved the local beaches, restaurants, and quaint coastal towns. 5/5 recommend this place

Charming 3 bedroom Beach Front Cottage

4.96 out of 5 average rating, 27 reviews1 week ago

Our family loved staying here! It was a perfect fit for us (2 adults upstairs & 2 young teen kids in their own room) + grandma downstairs (so no fall hazard!) The views were perfect and added bonus for my kids to burn off steam even in the chilly weather. The open layout downstairs worked great. We weren’t there for many meals so didn’t utilize the kitchen to its fully potential. Jonathan was very responsive and polite with any questions I had during our stay. It was a lovely place that worked out perfectly during our time spent visiting family in CT!

I was in town for a family event and wanted something other than a hotel room. The home was cozy and inviting, instructions were clear and precise. Being late October the weather was unbelievable warm. We (me and 2 sisters) were able to enjoy the wonderful deck and beautiful scenery. It was peaceful and quiet with an amazing views. Thank you Larry and Denise for sharing your beautiful home.
