Family Escape

Our family enjoyed this lakefront getaway. This property provided space to spend time together and space to have quiet time. The property was clean and well kept and provided all the necessities we needed. This property is convenient to Mystic area and off the busy roads to escape the noise of traffic. We would return to this property in the future.

Little Lake House

A decent little house, lots of space and a really nice sized yard on the water. Beautiful view. The owner was very responsive to my concerns when I reached out to her about the cleanliness on our arrival. Our stay was ok- I’m sure it’s great in the summer with kids - the yard looks wonderful.

Why they chose this property

The first time we visited this lake house we knew it was the perfect vacation home for our family. When we drove up to the house we parked and immediately walked to the patio to take in the view. In that moment I knew I was home. Soaking up the crisp autumn New England air I closed my eyes and listened to the sounds around me - our small children running through the large backyard, the ducks calling out, and finally the sound of the water lapping up against the dock. These are the sights and sounds that memories are made of - and that photos and videos just cannot capture completely. The is no doubt about it, this is the perfect lakefront cottage for our family. We take immense pride in our lake home and are thrilled to be able to host guests who will hopefully love it just as much as we do.
