The property was really cute and clean. However, the house smells of mildew. The water is not potable and you can’t shower in it because it smells. The owner is very nice and responsive but didn’t offer a refund when we had to leave early because of the water situation

The location was great, fortunately the fireplace worked and there was sufficient firewood, because the heater did not work, and the owner could not get it working while we were there. The kitchen skink needed to be replaced as it was in terrible shape. The dishes, silverware, and cooking items were practically nonexistent. We had to go to dollar store and buy a number of small items just to make do. We did, however enjoy ourselves because of the location of the cabin, The views of the lake was beautiful. The owner was very responsive and tried to get the heater fixed, however to no avail.

Cottage was very nice and well equipped. Just a few items missing that we would have liked. Loved the fenced yard and proximity to the water. Definitely would rent again. Chris was very responsive to our needs as well.

Pleasent diversion & lots of kayaking!
The house is nice and compact. It's frillfree, even including things like towel racks in the bathroom (it could be done even in such a small space). But everything functions, even in local flooding form the remnants of hurricane Ida, which raised the lake about 1 foot (putting the dock under water for a day). Tip: pull the motorboat out of the water during major rainstorms or be prepared to bail water with a large bucket the next day!
All-in-all, lots of places to see birds - ducks, herons, geese - nooks & crannies on the mile-long Long Meadow Pond, including lily pad marshes. A beach is within a 5-minute walk, with another one just across the lake.
A great break.

We had a wonderful time at the lake house. The house is very cozy but had enough room for the 6 of us to enjoy our vacation. There are plenty of boats and kayaks for everyone to go out on the water. The host is easy to contact and responded quickly to our call. I would definitely stay here again.

We really enjoyed our stay at this lovely lake cottage! The neighborhood was quiet, the home was well stocked, and had so many options for hours of enjoyment on the lake (e.g. kayaks, canoe, boat, paddle board and more!). My 10 year old daughter was so excited to catch at least 10 fish in a few hours! We greatly look forward to coming back again in the future. Thank you Chris for your warm hospitality.

excellent location if looking to just rest & relax on the water. Chris had plenty of Adult water vessels from kayaks , paddle boat, paddle boards & even a trolling motor for small boat. Water was very clean & plenty of fish could be seen. The community was very friendly & DOG friendly witch great for my dog to go swimming and hike the near by trails.

We loved our visit to this waterfront cottage in Bethlehem. It had a fenced in backyard which was perfect for our dogs, a nice dock overlooking the lake, a rowboat with a motor, canoe, paddle board, peddle boat and several kayaks. There were nearby association and public beaches, restaurants, wineries and the CT antique trail. Our host was responsive and welcoming. We were in the area for a family reunion, but wish we could have spent more time at the cottage with all the waterfront amenities and nearby activities available!

We were looking for a quiet lake front getaway for our young family to enjoy some peace and quiet. This rental fit the bill perfectly. We loved hanging out on the dock fishing and going for canoe rides around the lake. The swimming beach down the street was perfect for the kids. Highly recommend!

This was a great little cottage centrally located to many of the Litchfield County towns and state parks. We had a great time doing many day trips, but also hanging out in the back yard fishing and using the paddleboats. It was a very easy cottage to stay in with kids. We would definitely go back.

We had a great time at the cottage. Chris was extremely friendly and because he lives across the street, he is easy to get hold of. The cottage is set up as a rustic stay. It is very nice inside and it is just the atmosphere I expected when I had first saw the photos. The outside area is fenced in so it was great for letting my dog out. The Fire Pit was used almost every night and Chris keeps a large amount of fire wood on hand. We also did a good amount of grilling outside on the new grill. I fished from the dock every day and I caught fish every day. It was very windy and cold during the week, so I actually never used the boat with the electric motor. Next time for sure!
I will certainly be back next year for another stay and I hope I can luck out with better weather!

Great little house on the lake
We thoroughly enjoyed our time on the lake with our two young boys. We loved fishing on the row boat or off the dock. We had a great host who was super friendly and helpful. It was was a great little house for a fall getaway. We would consider going back again in the summer.

Quiet neighborhood. Nice fenced in back yard for dogs. Boats were an excellent touch. Fire pit was also very nice to have. Water was a bit murkier than we hoped for but definitely didn’t stop us from swimming.
