About this cottage rental
This idyllic 2-bedroom, 2-bath lakefront retreat on scenic Staffordville Lake accommodates up to 6 guests (4 beds - 1 queen, 1 bunk bed, 1 double), offering an unforgettable experience for your family. Enjoy breathtaking views from the cozy living area or the private deck. Kayak (2 included), swim off the floating dock, stargaze, grill out and enjoy your coffee on the deck! Separate workspace and free Wi-Fi for those working from home. Perfect for Brimfield Antique attendees. This is a private home, available to enjoy. It is built on a hill, though, so it does require steps down to the house and more steps down to the decks and lake. This space is no smoking, no pets and no parties. Due to the steepness of the inside stairs and the number of stairs to/from the house and lake, I don’t recommend this space for toddlers or very young children.
Guests access this home by a door code on the front door. Once inside, the decks can also be accessed through the downstairs slider. Guests can access all of the finished parts of the house plus use the washer dryer in the unfinished part of the basement. Kayaks, a swimming dock (seasonal), and a charcoal grill are available for your outdoor usage. Star gazing is encouraged! Indoors you will find games to play and high speed internet for working or streaming your favorite shows/movies (streaming services are the responsibility of the tenant). A fully stocked kitchen will allow you to cook Michelin star meals and cocktails for all. The kitchen includes a coffee pot (drip) with filters, toaster, dishwasher, microwave oven, full stove and oven and many more amenities such as a waffle maker and blender. The master bedroom has a queen sized bed and armoire and overlooks the lake. The second bedroom has a double bed and twin bunk beds for a total of 4 separate beds. There is a full bathroom upstairs and a full bathroom downstairs by the work space/reading nook/doors to the deck. This home is ready for you to drop in, relax and enjoy the lake and beautiful New England views! The only rules we have are: no parties, no smoking inside and no pets (we have external cameras). Book now for a relaxing stay!

Kitchen comes fully stocked with any utensil needed if cooking is your thing. And all the appliances are top of the line too!! We love the view and we definitely made memories with family and our two youngsters.

Pros:- kitchen is clean and well-equipped- beds are very comfortable- host was quick to respond to initial questions- parking was fine- huge decks overlooking the water are lovely- Washer/dryer was great to have- Host provided more than ample soaps, towels, TP, etc.Challenges:- Off-season, this area is pretty isolated - not a criticism, just helpful to know- The inside stairs are honestly scary - more like a ladder- Lighting throughout the house is dim- The couch cushions are pretty spent, unfortunately- Kitchen has a high-top table and only 3 chairs - fine for 2-3 people, but more would be tricky- Downstairs is unheated and didn’t seem like cleaners had attended anything but the bathroom- 2nd bathroom is downstairs - very tiny step-up/low ceiling basement bathroom. It was clean and fine, but unsafe to get to at night, between the steep steps and lights that were out- Outside steps are numerous and steep, which the host is very clear about. Loose railing could use attention.Overall, our stay was fine. We appreciated the hospitality. The house is clean and set up decently for a small number of adults/teens. In fairness, we were here on a rainy/snowy off-season weekend, so did not get to utilize the expansive decks. I am sorry to have to say I would be pretty terrified of bringing little children here, unfortunately, but the host is very clear about the steps and steepness. They’re no joke!
