Lovely home
We had a wonderful vacation. The home was very clean, spacious and accommodating for our large family. It was great being able to dock our boat and we spent many hours on the lake cruising, skiing and pulling our grandchildren on a towable for their first time. They loved it!

Great Location
We really enjoyed our stay. Property was close to the lake where we enjoyed 2 days of renting a pontoon. We enjoyed the very large house and property.

Large house overlooking a lake
The house is large and well equipped. The host (Ben) was very responsive. The area is pleasant, although it is not as up scale as some of the other towns in Litchfield County. The local beach was disappointing. There are nice areas to swim that require a 25 to 35 minute drive. The listing makes it look like the house is actually on the lake, but it is on a hill up a moderately steep driveway. The good part was that it is not on the road, so it was quieter than it would have been if it was actually on the lake.

Dream Lake Vacation!
We had an amazing stay at Ben’s lake house! The house is spotless! So meticulously clean! We spent many hours lounging on the deck and dock of the lake. We brought our own kayaks, so much fun paddling in the lake. The lake is so clean! We went into town one evening to play mini golf and drive go carts. Lake Compounce is less than an hour drive. We rented a pontoon boat for a day. Just so relaxing! Ben was super responsive to all our requests!!

Wonderful Host
The house was spacious, beautiful, and extremely clean. The host was so nice and answered messages promptly. We enjoyed playing games in the dining room and gathering in the comfortable living room around a fire. The kitchen was a great space to prepare meals for our group. We also enjoyed sitting on the back deck and around the backyard fire pit. The view of the lake from the house is spectacular. We had a wonderful weekend!
