About this country house rental
Stay at the historic Erastus Lyman Home, an 1802 farmhouse overlooking a working farm in Goshen, Connecticut. This spacious five-bedroom retreat blends antique charm with modern comfort, featuring two gas fireplaces, a full kitchen, inground pool, and inviting gathering spaces. Located 10 minutes from downtown Litchfield and Mohawk Mountain Ski Area, with scenic trails nearby and a farm store next door offering local provisions.
This is a special antique home, and we consider ourselves stewards of it. We simply ask that it be treated with the same care and respect it deserves and that our house rules be observed.
