8 / 10Excellent·Aug 2025
Check-in was easy as the key was up under the mat. The Kitchen is fine as well.
10 / 10Outstanding·Jul 2025
Awesome stay at the cottage! We thoroughly enjoyed Lake Waramaug and everything it has to offer. The house was fantastic. We grew up in CT and this style of house is very nostalgic. The only thing I would say to others looking to stay here is that it is NOT friendly to those with any mobility problems. I’m not taking away from the property, just an objective comment. Definitely recommend!
8 / 10Excellent·Jul 2025
House was very clean and cozy. Lake was a great adventure - a short walk away.
6 / 10Average·May 2026
Where do I start! First day was terrible. Tried to get a refund and after a day of several calls they agreed to refund some of the money. BUT, all the other ones I looked at were rented so no where to go other than a hotel. The house is very very tight. Small bedrooms. The Mattress’s are so bad that you literally feel the springs in your back with the two twins. Way too much junk/stuff everywhere. If you have ANY mobility problems at all, DO NOT rent this place. VERY steep steps/stairs in and out of the property. The area is remote but nice.
