We stayed in this beautiful and special home after Christmas for a few days to celebrate my mom's birthday. The owners could not have been nicer or more helpful. We are a family of 5 and each child relished in their own room, then my parents had their own "in-law" suite on the opposite side of the home. The big and gorgeous kitchen (with a fire place) brought us altogether for the happiest of times. The location is fabulous, right next to a vineyard and the most charming spots in New Preston. We were able to join the Summit Rock hiking trail to Rock Waramaug right from the backyard of this home. Our entire family is eager to return, but for longer next time.

The house was spectacular. Clean, beautiful modern interior. The kitchen was a perfect central fixture for a weekend with friends. The pool, the hot tub, the tennis court, the fire pit… just at the house there was plenty to do. Then there was also awesome hiking and the dock with paddle board and kayaks… Can’t say enough nice things about this property. Thank you for a great stay.

We loved the property and amenities - large spacious and gorgeous home located a short walk from the lake. The pool and yard were great and the house was lovely - would highly recommend!

We had a wonderful stay at Lake Waramaug Estate for a week and end of August beginning of September, with three adult children and their Significant Others and one grandchild. The house was beautiful, clean, and spacious enough for everyone. The pool and hot tub were clean and of perfect temperature, and it was an easy 3 minute walk to the paddle boards and kayaks on Lake Waramaug. Would definitely rent again. It is the perfect location, both in terms of proximity to the lake and to restaurants, stores, outdoor markets, hiking, etc., etc. And Jenn the owner was super responsive and helpful about everything. Can't say enough good things about this property.

Home was very well taken care of and lovely area. Recommend the house for another stay.

Stayed at this spectacular home as a group of 7 women, celebrating a birthday. Everything - and I mean EVERYTHING - was perfect. StayMarquis was very easy to work with and offered a variety of ways to enhance our stay. The property host/owner could not have been more responsive, kind, thorough, and considerate. As someone who myself owns a home offering short term rentals, I was blown away by all of the thoughtful touches the owners made sure to have available. It was so easy to settle in, to cooke meals, to figure everything out. The pool is lovely. The hot tub is brand new. The tennis court is such a nice addition. The house is spacious and beautifully appointed, but doesn't feel pretentious. It is comfortable and rambling, but not too big. It was spotless, with beautiful linens, and everything you might need, easily accessible. We had a private chef one night prepare a celebratory dinner and he too was blown away by the gorgeous, well-equipped kitchen. The house is not directly on the lake but a 5 minute walk to the dock. The house has kayaks but they were in the garage and too challenging for us to get to the dock to use. My understanding is that they are normally (in season) at the dock so tenants may use easily. We rented early in the season so it made sense that they weren't down by the lake as yet. The hiking in the area is absolutely wonderful. There was a great hike directly from the property, up to the spectacular Waramaug Rock, Maricostas Preserve, and the and Steep Rock Preserve. What a special treat to go on beautiful hikes directly from the property. There are plenty of lovely farmers markets, delicious fresh food stores, and great restaurants in the area. We had an especially good meal at The Hopkins Inn, 15 minutes away by foot, with a priceless view of the lake. We all agreed we would fall all over ourselves to stay here again!!!

We stayed for a week at this location while our 11 year old was doing on-line school. We were all working from home and the internet service was stellar, which was a real gift , as often service can be spotty in the country. The home was lovely, clean, well appointed and comfortable. There is a brilliant hike up Pinnacle Hill right off of the backyard. We walked this hill 3 times while there as the view of the lake was beautiful and the hike invigorating. There are other nearby hikes like Bee Brook. There are also fantastic coffee places nearby- Smithy's is about a mile away, and my favorite which is a bit further in Washington CT is The Po Cafe which serves "Sun" Coffee's Dante Inferno which is perhaps the best coffee I have ever had. All around a wonderful experience in a very friendly area.
