We arrived at the property and saw half a dozen deer as we drove down the driveway. The view from the property looks down across a lake with mountains in the distance. There were 10 of us and the 5 bedrooms and 4 bathrooms gave us plenty of room. We made great use of the BBQ, hot tub and pool table. Eric and Francine were amazing hosts who were available when needed but otherwise you wouldn't know they were around at all.

Property is secluded and QUIET, but yet still close to both Stow and Waterbury, minutes away. Property has plenty of activities you would not have to leave. A wonderful and peaceful place. Owners were very pleasant and helpful! They meet you at check-in and give tour of the house and details on the property--Different than any other VRBO, we kept waiting on a door lock code..lol Very nice exterior lighting, we came in at night and the lighting was most helpful. Upper deck is larger than the photo on the posting, and what an amazing added surprise! There is a very nice extra wide and long steps going from the parking area to the lower lawn, but there is no walkway from those steps to the lower entrance, making it a bit of a struggle for our heavy suitcases. There are 5 beds with a 6th being the Hide-A-Bed but not true 5 bedrooms. The posting communicates there are 5 bedrooms, but the upper space, has 2 beds but no privacy, one bed is up a spiral staircase and no door, one in the main area along with kitchenette and bathroom. Lower level dining/living is a 10 seat table and a single couch. There is no area to just "lounge" all together to watch a movie or chitchat. Privacy--The owners live on property, and this is an active property so the owners were out in the yard doing maintenance, it was unfortunate for us some garden work took place by way of a tractor at 8am, and no notice was given. We would stay again, this place is a gem!!!

This is our third year staying here. It's the perfect place for us. We spend 90 percent of our time just hanging out. No need to go to town. We plan to continue coming every year.

Most enjoyable. The house was perfect and there was a lot to do to keep ourselves occupied. There were tons of games and the short walk to the lake was perfect to keep cool. Eric and Francine were the perfect Host and Hostess. They were very attentive and saw to our every need. We would definitely come again! Tom & Doreen

Eric and Francine's property is beautiful. The house is situated on 30 private acres and looks out over a magical lake. We were lucky enough to receive heavy snowfall on our first night and the grounds became a winter wonderland. Throughout our stay I communicated with Eric who was extremely helpful, kind, and lovely to chat with. It was always easy to reach him by phone or text, though his and Francine's presence weren't known to us unless we needed something. We were encouraged to enjoy ourselves to the fullest and to make use of everything they had to offer: Pool Table, Sauna, Hot Tub, Sledding, Snowshoes, Board Games, etc etc etc., we even built a ski jump on the long hill in the yard and skied down to the lake! Everyone in our group of 9 loved the place and we can't wait to come back! Thanks again and see you soon.
