We had a wonderful few days at the house, it was just as described. The kitchen had all we needed. The lake is a quick walk down the hill. The frozen lake and snow was an added plus for us Floridians. Our two boys really enjoyed using the sleds and playing in the snows. We definitely recommend this home and if we ever make it back to Connecticut we would definitely book again!
Cute, cozy and comfortable getaway. The house was very clean and the beds were very comfortable. The location is quiet and the lake is peaceful. Check in and check out were very smooth! Thank you Linny and Walter for sharing your wonderful house with us!
The house was great. It had all the amenities you need. The hosts were great with communication and answering all questions. It was a nice quiet place to catch up with my son!
Had a great stay in this comfortable and well appointed home near the lake. The short trail walk to the lake is a great discovery. We used the kitchen a lot and the bar height table works well for meals as well as several great spaces outside. Lilacs and irises were blooming while we were there - lovely when we had a couple of family members come over for drinks outside. Also enjoyed the game table and great TV setup in the evening. The lake community is friendly and there are some unique finds for food, eat-in and takeout, that are close by. We made the right choice for our stay and would love to come again!
Stayed over the holidays with my husband and our two teens visiting family in the area. It all started with great communication with Linny, the host. Super friendly and responsive! When we arrived at the property, the house was warm, cozy and inviting. Meticulously clean, upgraded, and just super cute. I was a little concerned that it was going to be a bit small for the 4 of us (1 bathroom for two adults and two teens?) but it wasnât a problem at all. The house is bigger than you might think, and the layout is fantastic. Since itâs winter, we didnât really have a chance to enjoy the yard, but the kids still had fun checking out the pond. The neighborhood is super quiet, but still close enough to all of the stores, restaurants, and amenities you need. Overall, just a great stay!!
Had an enjoyable 3 night stay in the cozy cottage. We're from Pennsylvania to celebrate our Connecticut daughter's special birthday. Enoyed the comfortable, quiet stay.
Where to begin? The property is tucked away behind a small cluster of houses by a lake. Despite the close proximity to other homes, it was very quiet and peaceful. Communication was top notch from beginning to end. It felt like my questions were answered before I could ask them. The inside of the home was just immaculate like it was taken from a story book. It exuded such charm and coziness that it felt like home. The interior decor came straight out of a Martha Stewart magazine. Itâs one of those places where you want to return to time after time. Thank you Linny and team for a wonderful stay. Canât wait to come back.
Came Feb 2024 to visit family nearby and we loved our quiet stay here. Cabin is larger than we anticipated with 2 bedrooms, game room, living room, kitchen and large bathroom. Plenty of toiletries for our family with a well stocked kitchen. Washer and dryer worked great and laundry pods were a nice plus that we didnât have to buy when we washed our clothes. The coffee, creamer, and cookie dough were tasty! Area is a quiet neighborhood, which was just what we wanted. Lake is a short walk with a beautiful view. Got to play in the snow in the large yard and the kids used the sleds that were supplied. We will definitely stay here again in the future. Host were quick to respond and were extremely accommodating with certain things we needed for our young child.
This property was well kept, had clean spaces, and was very welcoming. There is everything you could need in the kitchen to cook. The outside had a sitting area, and a fire pit (which we didn't use ) but it is there. And not too far is the lake. I would recommend this place to get away from the city life and just relax and enjoy the peaceful atmosphere of this lakehouse. The owners were great! I dropped them a question prior to arrival and they responded really fast. Thanks for the beautiful place. I feel reenergized.
The house was lovely. It was a close drive to the lake and restaurants. Hosts were wonderful and accessible and had lots of chocolate treats handy. We lived it!
Family reunion My sisterâs, brother and I grew up on the Lakes weâre all in our 60s and 70s and it was our first time back what a treat to stay at this beautiful cottage and reminisce about the good times
My wife and I were attending a wedding in Southwick and we couldn't have found a more beautiful and restful place to stay while we were in town. The house was very comfortable, clean, and inviting. The neighbors were friendly and the agricultural and lake setting was relaxing and a pure pleasure to experience. Linny and Walter were perfect hosts. It was as if they had anticipated all our needs and had planned for them before we arrived. The outdoor fireplace was a great place to spend a cool evening with a glass of wine. I recommend this rental to everyone without reservation.
Weâre a local family from Western Massachusetts who loves spending time by the lake, exploring the outdoors, and creating spaces where people can relax and reconnect. Hosting gives us the chance to share the charm of this area and help others make great memoriesâjust like we have over the years.
What we enjoy most about the neighborhood is its peaceful, laid-back feelâtucked away yet close to everything. The area is surrounded by scenic farm fields, rolling hills, and nearby local mountains, all butting up to the beautiful lake. Whether it's a quiet walk to the water, watching the sunset, or taking in the views, itâs the perfect blend of nature and community.
Our home offers a rare blend of lakeside relaxation and farm-side charm. Fully refurbished with comfort in mind, it sits peacefully between the sparkling shores of Congamond Lake and scenic tobacco fields. Whether you're sipping coffee on the patio, strolling to the private dock, or soaking in the quiet surroundings, itâs a one-of-a-kind retreat that brings together the best of nature and comfort.
