The Lake House

Relax with the whole family at this peaceful place to stay! The lake is a two minute walk from the house. Enjoy a view of the lake as you sit by the fire, or as you play games in the spacious living room. This quiet getaway features private lake access, but is a short drive from hiking trials, local restaurants, golf course, parks and a drive-in movie theater. The University of Connecticut is a ten minute drive from The Lake House.

Great Weekend

The lake house was great. We had everything we needed (except a baking sheet) for a weekend attending UCONN basketball games. We even got to see snow on the last night.

Thanksgiving and UConn football game

We had the most wonderful time!!! The house is so comfortable and the location was perfect!!! So close to UConn plus Bidwells Tavern and Lakeside Resturant. We did not use the outdoors but it looked amazing! The host was so gracious and very responsive.

Everything you need for a quiet getaway.

The location of the house to the lake was great. You can sit in the yard and see the lake and it is a very short walk to the beach. Would absolutely stay here again. The host was great at answering any questions we had. A+++

Very nice and beautiful location

Very nice location and house. Really enjoyed it. Only 1 tip: invest in a better bed. This is the only downside. The rest was perfect.

Wonderful home in a quaint town.

I spent three relaxing days/nights here. Great location to UConn so I could visit my daughter. Pretty lake, lake views and the Fall leaves were gorgeous. The house is fully stocked with anything you would need. I didn't use the firepit or outside area but the backyard looks lovely and the house is a very short walk to the water. We went hiking and apple picking and had a great dinner at the Lakeview restaurant.
