About this property

Direct waterfront Lake House, stunning views Sleeps 8 on a private PENINSULA!

This breathtaking property is located on its own PENINSULA! Stunning water views from almost every window. Please see our reviews, everyone loves it!!!

This updated, year round, charming family cottage features 3 BR, 2 bath
1st Floor Galley Kitchen, large living room w/sliders to a remodeled and heated Sun porch and large wrap around deck, 1st floor Bedroom with Queen and Bunk Beds, renovated full bathroom.
Second floor has 2 bedrooms, each with a premium Queen bed. One room has a remodeled bathroom, the other room has a private Juliette balcony overlooking the lake with sitting area.
Both upstairs bedrooms have small air conditioners.

Outdoor life: Fishing is great! Right off the dock or off the peninsula! Large mouth, small mouth and spotted bass, Pickerol, Perch, and even a few Massive Carp and trout. Use the kayaks or canoe to explore the lake or fish! Watch the sunset from a captivating screened in porch or from the front deck on Adirondack chairs. The large grassy yard includes a boat dock, kayaks, canoes, small private beach area with beach chairs, outdoor stone fireplace, outdoor seating area, picnic table with outdoor lighting and an outdoor bathroom!!!
Did I forget,...Great swimming too!!!

Enjoy your mornings waking up lake side, sipping coffee from the private balcony off the master bedroom.
Soak up the afternoon sun in the lake, fish off the dock or play catch or baseball in the large yard.
As the sun starts to set, enjoy a family dinner by cooking outdoors on the Stone grill! With many options, you can eat inside the sun porch or outdoors on the picnic table as you watch the sunset dip right across the other side of the lake.
Nights by the lake are filled with fun and laughter, sit by the fire, gaze at the beautiful stars or maybe even do a little night fishing for catfish.

Awesome location!

We rented this property because our was getting married in Sturbridge and we wanted a place for the groomsmen to gather and get ready but also where we could spend the night. The location was awesome! ( can’t wait to see pictures) and the host was friendly and quick to respond. We enjoyed it so much that we are already talking about returning for a relaxing visit!!

April visit

We enjoyed our stay. As a family of cooks the kitchen was very small and this was a bit of a challenge. It is a very relaxing cottage and we enjoyed the water even if it was a bit cold as our time was in April. I would certainly return to this rental. It is very clean and the sun room was wonderful.

Incredible stay on the Lake

My family and I really enjoyed our stay. The place was exactly what we were looking for. A beautiful house directly on the water with great views from every room. The fishing was great. The swimming from the dock was great fun. The host was fantastic in answering all our questions. I can't wait to go back!

Beautiful relaxing setting

We couldn't have asked for a more beautiful setting to spend a week. The lake was so peaceful and calm. We enjoyed getting out on the kayaks and exploring. The house was comfortable, a little cramped for the seven of us but the view made it worth it.

Not sure why we didn’t get 5 stars, our guests loved it and spoke very highly of it and even inquired about coming back: We only ever receive 5 stars so this is a bit disappointing for us.

Stay in paradise

This was a perfect location for our girls-get-away trip to Brimfield. This home sits right on Cedar Lake and the views are absolutely amazing. A very quiet neighborhood. It was so peaceful sitting outside watching the wildlife. Jamie was quick to respond and very gracious.

Perfect Lake House

This place is the perfect lake getaway. Comfy Cozy!! We were blown away by the beauty of the lake and the comfort of the house and amenities. They were so accommodating taking our reservation for the very next day. It was a beercation we planned on the fly to go to Trillium Brewery (about an hour away) and mainly for the ultimate beer destination Treehouse Brewery (5 minutes away).

About the host

Hosted by Jamie Quist

Host profile image
Fun family of Six! We have four active boys under the age of 12 and we love to have fun on the lake! We aren't there all the time so we would rather open it up for others to enjoy lake living! We live about 40 minutes away and are actively involved in our family, community and church. We are a hard working young family looking to build our future and enjoy the ride with our little guys!

Why they chose this property

A little slice of heaven,....every person that goes has the same reaction,...WOW! Read some of the reviews,...everyone simply loves it! It's simply a stunning location and a cute little house that feels bigger than it is. Enjoy the time away,...feeling a million miles away, yet close to all the amenities that make it easy if you want to go shopping or restaurants etc. The location is just so private and yet so convenient,...we love it and hope you do as well!

What makes this property unique

Direct Lake front access is an amazing place to swim and fish (incredible fishing) or to just relax. All of this while being steps from the house for a bite to eat or a nap on the couch etc! 3BR, 2 Bath, Large living room, small galley kitchen and a recently remodeled and heated amazing Sun Porch. The convenience and location is so easy to get to,..only minutes off the highway and close to all the local amenities. Sturbridge Village, Publick house, The Brimfield Fair, Tree House Brewery are all famous places in New England!!! Theses are all less than 5-10 minutes away! ;)
