The lake house was a perfect location for us. The kitchen had enough supplies to cook comfortably. We loved the firepit as well. The road is very busy and not that easy to take a walk but we did it. Also the driveway is very tight and it's best if you know how to back up well. We wish the communication with the manager was better. ##### Kim T. Stayed 2 nights in Oct 2024 Verified ### 8/10 Good #### Shannon H. 14 Dec 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Thanksgiving Family Gathering Overall our stay was good. The house was clean and overall a great space for our family to gather for the Thanksgiving holiday. We unfortunately had a plumbing issue Thanksgiving morning but the owner responded quickly. He had the situation resolved before we returned that evening. The one thing I would note in the homes description is how narrow the driveway is. For larger vehicles a very tight fit. I also recommend providing a few more amenities for those that are traveling in for short stay. ##### Shannon H.

Easy to get to UConn. ##### Jill P.

The property was perfect! The kayaks were a nice treat and the location was just amazing. The road was not too busy but the cars using it did go very fast. If you have kids make sure they are aware of the cars going fast. The kitchen was well stocked. The linens were abundant and that was very helpful, especially towels. We live in SC and found the night a little chilly (I know we sound wimpy lol) but the gas fireplace was nice to have. We stay at homes often for vacations and I will say this plave has the MOST comfortable beds!!! We would definitely stay again! ##### Kelsey B. Stayed 7 nights in Jul 2025 Verified ### 6/10 Okay #### ATHENA W. 19 Aug 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, location, listing accuracy Disliked: Communication Check in and out was easy. Perfect amount of space for our big family. The property was renovated a bit. Kitchen has a nice amount of cooking supplies. Basics like salt n pepper are provided. We enjoyed the lake. The beach is nice but you need to purchase passes to use. I messaged Host to see if they had an annual but I never heard a reply. If you have allergies the numerous plug in air fresheners may bother you, home definitely has a “lake” odor . I tried messaging host a few times during my stay and they never responded. I received a generic welcome and good-bye message but no actual correspondence with host. ##### ATHENA W. Stayed 5 nights in Aug 2025 Verified ### 8/10 Good #### Kara L. 2 Jun 2025 ##### Kara L.
