Comfortable little house on the lake
Overall, we were happy with our stay. We were there in the winter, so we didn't get to enjoy the lake. The house was great as a launch point between Boston and the mountains.The house is literally on the lake. Water touches the lake side of the house. When we were there, the lake was frozen and beautiful.The house was well stocked and perfectly ready for us. There's plenty of parking. It's an older house, so the ceilings can be low and the floors are sometimes uneven. But the main room is vaulted, spacious and wonderful.Our only complaint is that it's listed as "sleeps 6". We came with 5 and that was a stretch. There's a main bedroom, a smaller secondary bedroom, and a pullout in the main room. If the secondary bedroom had a double bed in it, then "sleeps 6" would be accurate, if tight.

Late Fall Stay
We stayed for our daughter's wedding and the location was 10 minutes from the venue. The stay was nice but I didn't realize there was no dishwasher - which meant "KP" duty for us. The '4' rating is because there was no working sink stopper - which meant dishes had to be washed in a big bowl - plus the sink faucet is plumbed backward - making us think there was no hot water!

Cute lake house
Largely, it was quite nice. The description inferred that it would have no steps and I thought it would be ADA friendly. While there are no steps, there is NO chair with arms that would allow a person with limited mobility to stand and sit safely. that was disappointing. More disappointing was the phone call to the property manager where I informed him that the toilet seat was loose and sliding sideways and did ask if a chair with arms was available. His answer was that neither could be managed during our stay.

Beautiful stay on the lake
Beautiful little lake house. It was a perfect stay for me and my fiancé. We really enjoyed our time out on the canoe and it was so peaceful throughout our stay. With the neighbors close by it still felt like we had so much privacy. A perfect romantic getaway

Would stay again
Our stay was great! Appreciated a place for the family to spread out a little more than a hotle room. Perfect for families. Matt was very responsive to some things that came up. We would definitely stay here again if we are in the area again!
