Trip to Brimfield Antique Shows

The property is completely beautiful in a quiet and lush woodlot overlooking the lake with naturalized plantings and a spacious deck. We only stayed for one night and ate out, but the kitchen is expansive and well fitted out with pots and pans and would be great for a large group and entertaining family and friends.

Lovely spot

Nice place with plenty of room. Kitchen had everything we needed. The 2nd floor bathroom would be better situated so the other bedroom occupants don’t have to go through the “master” to use bathroom. Otherwise, nice place!

The property was spacious and overall quiet. Plenty of room for the 6 of us to have our own space or gather together as desired. The deck and kitchen were lovely areas to hang out together. However, the overall upkeep of the place and thoughtfulness regarding guests needs was a little lacking. For example, there was a big kitchen but the actual useful items for a family to cook were lacking (e.g., the only skillet was so deformed you couldn't cook much in it), rather it seemed to be filled with old appliances and such that the owner no longer uses. There were 4 kayaks, but one didn't have a kayak paddle. The path down to the pond/kayaks was very slick and steep in places - one of us fell. The bathrooms were dark and quite dated. Overall, we didn't feel it was worth the amount we paid.

Heather is very direct and clear

Her communication was A+, she was responsive and doesn't beat around the bush. She made her answers clear when I had any questions. The house and property were beautiful and you can tell they pride themselves in keeping a clean and responsible household. She was great hostess and I would recommend working with her to anybody looking for a nice quiet stay. She was as good a host as you get.

Beautiful escape near Brimfield

Lots of room for friends to enjoy a summer escape on the water in Woodstock. We arrived before the dock was in the water (May) so we couldn’t take advantage of the great number of water craft. The access from the house to the water is steep and natural so bring your walking stick if your not as steady on your feet. The house is beautiful and everything you need is provided for you, in season the window ac unit is available if you need it. Our hosts were amazing - we spent the days outside and had early heatwave and they were so accommodating. It’s as lovely as it looks!

What a wonderful home! This house was huge! There were plenty of rooms for our family, but 3 of my relatives did not make it.The first floor had a bedroom right near the main floor bathroom which was perfect for my 82 year old parents.My husband and I stayed in the upstairs master suite.We were there for Friday and Saturday night.My daughter's wedding was in Union which was a short 15 minute drive.Unfortunately with all the prep at the wedding venue, we were hardly at the house at all.We absolutely loved the huge kitchen and the dining table would have been great for all the games that were stacked by the wood stove.The communication with host Heather was wonderful, and she was very accommodating for an early check in, but we didn't need it as we went straight to the wedding venue to set up.My husband took a walk down to the dock to check it out in the morning.We will definitely keep this property in mind for a family week long vacation in the future.I would definitely recommend staying at this property.

My husband and my step daughter and family stayed here. It is an open space a living room. Sitting room. 4 bedroom and 2 bathroom but kitchen is a women or a person who enjoys cooking dream kitchen. Large counter in middle with stools, and dining table for up to 8. It's amazing. This place has everything you need, clean. But wait til u step out on the wrap around deck... The view from there... Lake a shirt walk from the house. I would rather this place 5 stars. Communication with host was fast. I would love to come back again. Thank you. Sitting on that deck was like a piece of heaven!

Beautiful Location

The house is in a beautiful location and is setup wonderfully to joyfully cook a big meal with a group of people. The house is comfortable and inviting, if a bit worn down (chipping paint, rust, and some dusty shelves). The beds are comfortable as are the sitting and living rooms. The jetted bathtub in the pictures was out of order and there are instructions not to use the wood stoves. The hosts have very distinct instructions and their personality was clearly showcased.

About the host

Hosted by Heather Driscoll

Host profile image
My husband, Dan, and I live in the area and are Entrepreneurs. We have a horse farm 10 minutes down the road from this house. We love this part of the country and we love living here!

Why they chose this property

This property started as a learning center for my Coaching business. As Covid hit and things slowed down, we decided to rent it and share it's beauty, with people who love to travel!

What makes this property unique

It's private, spacious, and everyone says it has a really good energy and feel to the place. I agree. You will love all the things in nature our home has to offer!

Please note**
We have well water and not city water. This water is hard. We do have a water softening system and it has been tested and is safe to drink and shower in. The toilets and tub have been stained - we have tried (and are continuing to try) products that will remove the stains. If you want to bring your own drinking water you can, but the water is safe to drink.
