Always a magical stay at Uncas Pond.

We have stayed with Carol and Stephen for many summers now and as always we had a glorious couple of weeks in this beautiful setting in their cozy house. We felt well cared for and are already looking forward to our stay next year! Thanks so much!

An oasis of true beauty: clean and calm water, peaceful forests and a Lakehouse with so much warmth and character. The surrounding area is filled with fun dining, things to do and tons of nature. Love this gem of a spot!

The property was clean and the owners are quite friendly and took care of some minor concerns very quickly. A few things to note of importance is that this home is not air conditioned. There are 2 window units (1 in master bed, 1 in upstairs bed). Our stay was during an epic heat wave and these units were not what we expected to have as a home listed with air conditioning. Also, the two upstairs bedrooms have mattresses that have seen better decades. We actually used several comforters to cushion ourselves from the springs. There are no window coverings for the living area and outside patio which would have helped tremendously during the aforementioned heat wave. The pathway to the lake is long and all stairs, so just be aware of this with elderly or young kids. For some reason, we did not get directions from the owners before our trip and Waze had a hard time finding it, namely because of the mile long driveway.
