My fiancé (now husband) and I stayed with our Bridal Party at Camp David while getting married in Morris, CT. The accommodations were perfect for such an event! We rented 3 of David’s cottages, which all share the same property and are just steps from Bantam Lake. David was very laid back and great at communicating and accommodating several of our needs. He has all of the amenities necessary for a weekend getaway on the Lake including BBQ supplies and equipment for several different water activities. He has a personal handy man that was quick to respond to and resolve a couple of minor concerns. He also offered to help us unload any belongings. We’re so appreciative of David for providing such hospitality and the perfect accommodations for our wedding weekend! We have memories to last a lifetime. Highly recommend!

My friends and I had a blast at this location! We couldn’t get enough of the wrap-around porch, we spent almost all of our time on it! From the dock to the kayaks, fun floats and fire pits, we had a great, great time. David was an amazing host, he even stopped by a local bakery and fruit stand and brought us fresh baked bread and peaches! He was friendly and very responsive! We loved everything about our stay, we will be back for sure!

We had a short stay due to bad weather but David was magnanimous as it related to our changing schedule. The property allowed for us to enjoy great family-time and enjoy kayaking and exploring. We will be back.

We had a wonderful time at Camp David! We've done a weekend with friends for years now and this was easily one of the best places we've stayed. We rented several of the houses and had plenty of space for our group to spread out. We spent our entire stay lakeside - hanging out, sitting by the firepit, swimming and grilling! David was easy to reach with any questions or concerns (even reset the wifi remotely one night). Only caveat for future guests to note is that there are multiple cottages on the property that can be rented by other guests. We had two different families stay in the unoccupied house during our stay, both were very friendly and we had no issues coexisting on the property.

Our family rented this cottage along with the larger one so that we could gather together for a vacation. Being right on the lake was the best part of our experience, and the children (and adults) spent large portions of the day swimming, kayaking, and fishing. The enclosed porch enabled us to gather in larger groups. The beds were very comfortable, and the kitchen and bathroom were adequately furnished. The surrounding area is full of hiking paths and great eating experiences. David made sure that we had whatever we needed. It was great - and unique - to have all of those activities in one place!

The lake is beautiful and David is a fantastic host! He is extremely responsive. Lovely view from the wraparound porch. There are also a lot of "extras" to enhance the stay such as kayaks, floats, life jackets etc. and a great outdoor area with furniture and a fire pit. He even brought us pastries from the artisan bakery up the road. The beds are comfortable. If you are truly planning to cook, the kitchen is a bit small and we had to be creative with the available equipment in the kitchen.

In June 2021, we stayed at the "Lakeview" house, which is the 2nd rental back from the lake, of David's three houses. The green lawn, picnic tables, and dock in the lake were enjoyed by the whole family. It was very hot that week, and one of the three small bedrooms did not have working AC, but David addressed that quickly. The main area of the home (living room and kitchen) does not have AC, and got pretty warm, but we spent most of our daylight hours outside enjoying the lake. House was clean and well organized, and David communicated clearly.

The property pictures and descriptions are spot on. It is obvious how much care David takes in improving and maintaining the property. He was always accessible and provided nice suggestions also. It was a lovely and relaxing long weekend get away for us as a family! Thank you!
