A group of us spent the weekend to run the Hartford Marathon. The house was spacious, clean, and comfortable. Great location, close to local shops and restaurants, and other amenities. The host was very friendly and accommodating. Great place to relax and unwind after 26.2 miles. Would definitely stay here again.

Rich was wonderful and welcoming. The home was very well equipped and ready for a wonderful lake get away. Middletown was close and a wonderful place to walk, shop and eat. Also took a trip to Crystal Ridge Winery and had a wonderful dinner at Lakeside Bar and Grill.

We had a great stay and we would absolutely go back again! Rich was awesome - the house was as advertised, his communication was excellent, and the house was large, comfortable, and very well kept. We had a snow storm one evening and Rich was in touch to communicate the plan for plowing and shoveling out - that was above and beyond anything we were expecting.

Beautiful, quiet and private. Friendly neighbors, lots of sitting areas conducive to good conversations. Beautifully appointed rooms have the summer cottage feel yet I’m sure it’s a very cozy stay in the winter, and will consider returning! We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. If you stay here, be sure to look through the photo album showing the previous condition of the house and the transformation it underwent. Lots of work!

Fantastic Place

We really enjoyed staying at this place. The house is very spacious, including a huge backyard right on the lake. The kids played on the water, had fun with the kayaks and paddleboat, and all the games they had in the closet downstairs. Thanks Rich for the great hospitality. We will definitely be back.

The house was very pleasant in a gorgeous setting. We stayed here so our immediate family could be together while traveling for my niece's wedding. Rich is an excellent host and we really enjoyed our weekend. I wish we'd had more time to sit and relax on the beautiful decks.

Spacious home with great views of lake

We enjoyed our stay in this lakefront property. The house is large and is especially well-equipped for a group. There are 2 decks for entertaining and the kitchen has everything one could ask for, including kayaks for exploring the large lake. Rich, the property owner, was happy to help us with any problems and provided information on the dining, etc. in the town.

Perfect Weekend Stay

The house was perfect. We took a trip up for a family wedding and there was plenty of space for my 2 sisters in law, my niece, and my husband and I to relax and not be on top of each other. The peaceful atmosphere and lake view were very relaxing. We unfortunately weren’t able to do anything in the area or at the house other than lounge around, enjoy the lake views, and make breakfast but we’re contemplating planning another trip so we could take advantage.

Family Fun in Middletown CT

We stayed a couple of days while we visited our family in Portland and Middletown. The house was a short distance to everything; grocery store, restaurants; winery, brewery and to our cousins we were visiting. The house was perfect for us, we were all comfortable while we were relaxing and we were all able to get ready without being in each other's way (hard to do when you have four women in the same space). We had a great time.

Perfect location with a beautiful view

My husband and I were home for a very special occasion at Saint Clements Castle and for the holidays and it was the perfect location. The home owner was fabulous to work with. He even decorated for the holiday so we would feel right at home. Rich was extremely responsive with every question/need. Even though it was winter, the it was worth staying on the lake for the views.

Great Stay!

Our family had a nice, quiet stay at Richard's lake house. The location was wonderful...a large, flat lawn, close access to sandy beach areas for boat launch and play for the kids, quiet neighbors. The house amenities were everything we could have needed for our stay. Communication with Richard was easy and thorough. The house, while in good condition, was not as clean as anticipated, though this did not significantly detract from the quality of our stay.

We take great pride in both the overall condition and general cleanliness of our home and have never had an issue in 15+ years of renting. Communication with our guests has always been proactive and any concerns or issues are addressed promptly as we live only 15 minutes from our vacation home. Our cleaning policy is always to clean/sanitize/touch all services and launder/sanitize all linens and we will re-emphasize these standards with our cleaning service.
