Mountain View Getaway

Enjoy this private oasis at the summit of Cream Hill nestled in picturesque Northwest CT. This property, at the end of a private drive, showcases spectacular mountain views of the surrounding area and the distant Catskill Mountains. The house offers numerous common areas and features an expansive deck ideal for taking in glimpses of wildlife and beautiful evening sunsets. Numerous outdoor activities await including skiing at Mohawk Ski Area, hiking the Appalachian Trail or just breathing the fresh air. Meander across the rural picturesque landscapes to nearby quaint villages with working farms and markets. We do have outside cameras for security purposes.

Amazing West Cornwall Home
I stayed here with my wife and we were simply amazed by the views from the back deck. It certainly felt like a home with a lot of space for activities and is somewhere we'd love to visit again.

Absolutely Wonderful!
I have been renting houses for nearly 20 years to celebrate the Thanksgiving holiday. This house by far exceeded all of my expectations. The house was well suited to handle a large holiday meal, including my choice of china supplied by our gracious hosts. This house is very well equipped and nicely appointed. The icing on the cake is the stunning panoramic mountain views. In addition, Larry and Karen, our hosts, were extremely responsive and accommodating, which I truly appreciated. We enjoyed every minute of our stay. I would definitely consider renting this house again in the future.

Charming Mountain Retreat
This is our second year staying with at Karen and Larry’s property and it did not disappoint. They are incredible hosts and their home is conveniently located near the Lime Rock Track (less than 3 miles). It’s a beautiful and peaceful setting and extremely comfortable home. We highly recommend.

Beautiful view + wildlife
The photos online do not do it justice. The deck and view are incredible especially at sunset. We only had one good sunset unfortunately as rain clouds rolled in on our second evening / night. Lots of deer roaming, a few bats, a frog and a black squirrel were also spotted around too. Overall a beautiful house inside and out accommodated by amazing hosts! Highly recommend this place

Pick this place for leaf peeping
Hosts have thought of everything—bottle water, creamer, birthday candles, readers in case you forgot your glasses, binoculars, paper plates, flashlights, multiple hair dryers, etc, etc. Very clean, gorgeously decorated, beautiful property. Lots of amenities—fun, large game room, fireplace, wonderful back porch with grill and fire table, fully adjustable (up/down/feet up/dowm) master bed. Beautiful views, lots of Fall colors, close to Mohawk state park, West Cornwall covered bridges, cute little shops. We spent half our trip leaf peeping/going to orchards/baking apple pie and we spent one day commuting into Brooklyn and the drive was beautiful. 2.5 hrs from Brooklyn, 1.5 hrs from teeny tiny little Tweed New Haven airport where Avelo air has great deals on flights. Highly recommend staying at this lovely house with great views and amenities.
