About this property

Direct Waterfront lakehouse apt w pool,kayaks,dock.By casinos,Mystic

WELCOME FALL at our DIRECT WATERFRONT large 1100 sq ft queen bed (plus full size convertible sofa) studio guest suite in the walk-out lower level of our home. We are located in the MOST desirable and SAFEST neighborhood, on a cove of the LARGEST recreational pond in the area. Our home offers the rare opportunity to enjoy all the excitement of boating, kayaking, paddle boarding jet skiing, fishing, nature watching, etc. of the pond (or the casinos) and then a quiet escape when you are ready to relax.

Although summer has ended and the pool closed, there is still much to do! Come enjoy the FALL SEASON and the gorgeous FALL FOLIAGE water views out your window or on the pond using the kayaks, canoe, paddle board, or your own boat or jet ski. Watch the winter birds return including several bald eagles.

This is the perfect place to relax, unwind, and recharge. Connect with nature or your inner zen.

We are centrally and conveniently located 45 mins from Providence and 50 mins from Hartford. We are 1 hour 40 mins from Boston and 3 hours from NYC. Historic MYSTIC, CT is only 30 minutes away.

FOXWOODS Resort and CASINO (and the brand new Great Wolf Lodge and Tanger Outlets) are a short 15 minute drive and MOHEGAN SUN just 20 minutes away.

In summer, enjoy a day of adventure and fun out on the water or relax by the pool. Wake up to song birds and sip your morning coffee by the pond or pool, watch bald eagles soar, great blue heron hunt, ducks and geese paddle, and deer graze. Whether you’re seeking solitude, traveling as a couple or family, or just need to recharge, our rental suite offers a serene getaway.

The main pond is a 3 minute paddle or 1 min boat ride from our dock. The 840 acre pond has plenty of open water to zip around and plenty more spaces on sandbars and near the shore to set up for the day or float with a cocktail.

Fish from the yard, sandy beach area, or dock. Kayaks, canoes and paddle boards (borrowed or BYO) can be launched from our yard/dock. We have life jackets for guest use but to ensure that you have the size that fits you or your child, you may wish to check with us or BYO.

Optional dock space rental is available for ONE boat or jet ski which can be launched from the public launch located 5 minutes away. A fire pit is located in the middle of the sandy beach area.

Guests enjoy self-check-in at a separate entrance located in the back of the house. You have the entire apartment to yourselves. The yard, pool, dock, beach, driveway, pond and all the rest of the property are accessible and shared with my family.

The rental suite has a private bathroom with a shower. Towels, wash cloths, and linens are provided.

Rest comfortably in the bedroom area on a queen bed with multiple pillows and extra blankets.

Relax in the living room with a love seat and a full size sleeper sofa. For the little one, there is also a pack and play with mattress and a stroller available. Stream your favorite shows on the Smart TV.

The “kitchenette” type area provides necessities for your stay. Including cabinets, a small counter space, Keurig coffee maker, toaster oven, microwave and mini fridge/freezer for your convenience. While there is no kitchen sink or oven, we have supplied some paper/plastic disposable dish-ware, bottled water, coffee k-cups, tea, and fixings to start out your visit.

Enjoy meals or work remotely at the dining area at the table and four chairs.

Shoot a game of pool or play some family games located in the armoire.

Lounge in the sun around the pool on the 4 lounge chairs, a dining table with 6 chairs, and an additional seating area with a loveseat and 2 chairs around the in-ground pool deck. [Chair cushions will be covered in inclement weather.] The pool can be heated for an additional daily fee.

Shoot hoops in the driveway. If we are around, there is a ball we can lend. But you may also wish to BYO.

Small (under 40 pounds), dog and people friendly, well-behaved, fully house trained, behavior trained dogs are negotiable for additional nightly fees. Our dog Charlie lives here. Due to severe allergies in our family, cats and any animals other than dogs CANNOT be allowed.
