This is an early 1900s guesthouse in a lake community originally built for weekend retreats from the “big cities” of Hartford and Torrington. Secret Lake was a community of weekend and summer retreats not far from traditional work places used by families in the early mid 1900’s as their get-away havens without complicated travel to far way lands. The home had a fairly low ceiling with a loft above which I raised upon purchasing. Other than that, the architecture is original. Come enjoy how life used to be in classic mid century American times. It’s all yours. I can be reached by phone or text 24/7. Cell phone provided upon booking. In 2005 Money Magazine rated Avon third safest town in America. This home is centrally located, situated under a 30 minute drive to the UCONN Health Center, Hospital of Central Connecticut, Hartford Hospital, and St. Francis hospital in Hartford. Also just a 35 minute commute will bring you to Charlotte Hungerford Hospital in Torrington! ## Property amenities ### Internet - Available in the house: WiFi ### Parking and transport - Parking on site ### Kitchen - Coffee/tea maker - Cookware, dishware, and utensils - Dishwasher - Hob - Oven - Refrigerator ### Dining - Dining table ### Bedrooms - 2 bedrooms - Bedsheets provided ### Bathroom - 1 bathroom - Shampoo - Shower - Soap - Toilet paper - Towels provided ### Living spaces - Dining table - Fireplace ### Entertainment - Smart TV ### Outdoor areas - Firepit - Garden - Patio ### Laundry - Laundry facilities - Washing machine ### Work spaces - Desk ### Comfort - Air conditioning - Heating ### Pets - Pet friendly - Welcoming cats and dogs only - 3 pets total ### Suitability/Accessibility - If you have requests for specific accessibility needs, please contact the property using the information on the reservation confirmation received after booking. - No lift (single-level property) - Smoke-free property ### Location highlights - On a lake ### Things to do - Kayak ### Safety features - Carbon monoxide detector (host has indicated there is a carbon monoxide detector on the property) - Smoke detector (host has indicated there is a smoke detector on the property) - Fire extinguisher ### General - Garden - Property does not allow children ## Similar properties ![Outdoor dining](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/108000000/107910000/107901600/107901536/0abb9e84.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### The Historic Hideaway Avon - Kitchen - Washer - Dryer - Pet-friendly 7.0 Good 2 reviews £211 includes taxes & fees 18 Nov - 19 Nov [](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-11-18&endDate=2025-11-19&selected=107901536&PinnedHotelID=107901536&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Outdoor pool, a heated pool](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/74000000/73570000/73568600/73568593/w1021h678x3y5-e19502fe.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Mountaintop Horse Farm with Heated Pool Bloomfield - Pool - Kitchen - Free WiFi - Air conditioning 10 Exceptional 33 reviews [](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-11-30&endDate=2025-12-01&selected=73568593&PinnedHotelID=73568593&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Exterior](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/108000000/107970000/107960300/107960210/7446b875.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### The Old Avon Village Avon - Kitchen - Washer - Dryer - Pet-friendly 6.2 10 reviews £233 includes taxes & fees 18 Nov - 19 Nov [](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-11-18&endDate=2025-11-19&selected=107960210&PinnedHotelID=107960210&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Interior](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/111000000/110380000/110372000/110371901/f21d6204.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### The Sun Filled Cozy Creamery Plainville - Kitchen - Washer - Dryer - Pet-friendly 8.8 Excellent 24 reviews £213 includes taxes & fees 22 Nov - 23 Nov [](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-11-22&endDate=2025-11-23&selected=110371901&PinnedHotelID=110371901&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Fridge, microwave, oven, stovetop](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/80000000/79320000/79313200/79313132/3ec31fb5.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Stylish & Newly Renovated Home – Prime Location!

We ended up leaving 8am Sunday. Although the property owner (Lisa) was very pleasant in person and on the phone and tried to make up for the inconveniences, it was a very disappointing stay, definitely not worth the amount we paid. If you decide to book this property, ask A LOT of questions before confirming your plans... make sure all maintenance is done and everything works on the property WAY BEFORE arriving. I probably would've appreciated a week's notice that the property was not ready for renting and receive a FULL refund instead of dealing with so much in a 36-hour timeframe. ##### Elizabeth M.
