Excellent relaxing location out of the hustle and bustle of a resort location. Very close to Sturbridge Village. Very clean everywhere with a well stocked kitchen. We got take out and sat on the side porch- So much nicer than a crowded restaurant! There are lots of places on the property to relax. Jamie and Meg were super responsive to all requests.

Incredible stay on the Lake

My family and I really enjoyed our stay. The place was exactly what we were looking for. A beautiful house directly on the water with great views from every room. The fishing was great. The swimming from the dock was great fun. The host was fantastic in answering all our questions. I can't wait to go back!

We couldn't have asked for a more beautiful setting to spend a week. The lake was so peaceful and calm. We enjoyed getting out on the kayaks and exploring. The house was comfortable, a little cramped for the seven of us but the view made it worth it.

April visit

We enjoyed our stay. As a family of cooks the kitchen was very small and this was a bit of a challenge. It is a very relaxing cottage and we enjoyed the water even if it was a bit cold as our time was in April. I would certainly return to this rental. It is very clean and the sun room was wonderful.
