Beautiful Lakefront Retreat with Private Dock

JoeRating, 5 stars1 month ago
A gem of a home if you’re looking for a waterfront property with great lake access. David’s home is well stocked with everything you need - from baking to cooking , from laundry to great choices of board games , a nice library if reading by the water is what you care to do . If you’re a bass fisherman like me , you have direct access to Squantz Pond, which can be a great fishing alternative to nearby Candlewood Lake. The property is close to the main road and traffic can be a nuisance to folks who are not used to it . City folks like me don’t mind it. David was a great host , very responsive . There was a slight miscommunication during check in , but that was taken care of right away . My family hopes to come back again . BTW, for those who don’t know how to play the piano , take some brief lessons before coming and impress your folks. Joe

Arcady - Modern, 1br cottage

BenjaminRating, 5 stars3 weeks ago
We spent a peaceful five days relaxing in the beautiful surroundings of this cabin. Steven graciously accepted our last minute reservation and also our request to extend our stay since we were having such a lovely time. No one was staying in the main house while we were there so we had the grounds to ourselves. The cabin itself is spotless and minimalist, with everything you need to cook in the modern kitchen or grill outside. We stayed with our pup and enjoyed walking him five minutes down the road to explore the town park (we had it to ourselves in mid-May but imagine it’s much busier during the summer). WiFi is super fast and we were able to work remotely without issue.

Fair Haven Heights Entire 1 Bedroom Apartment

MakRating, 5 stars3 months ago
Ricardo’s place was truly incredible. It’s such a cozy, clean and convenient spot located in a very good area. Had everything you need and have a very home-like feel. I was visiting my girlfriend for our anniversary and the weather wasn’t the greatest outside but that didn’t bother us one bit. We were comfortable cooking and eating at home and we had everything to make that happen. Ricardo and his wife were so kind and flexible with us. We would love to come back in the summertime and fully enjoy their spot again because there are great views in the backyard by the water. Well worth the price of admission. Thank you Ricardo and family. We will definitely be back if you’ll have us! Cheers 🥂

Cozy Gem in Hopewell

TaraRating, 5 stars7 months ago
We are appreciative of a clean place to lay our heads. Cindy’s place is exactly as described. We didn’t use the kitchen, but it was stocked with pots, pans, spices, coffee, and tea. The bathroom was spotless and beautiful. The bed and pillows were very comfortable. The linens were clean and fragrant free. Cindy was proactive in helping us to check-in, and quickly responded to my texts. People live upstairs, so we did hear some activity, but it was not disruptive in any way. In mid-October, the weather was chilly, and so the room was chilly too. We needed the space heater that was provided. We were grateful for a great stay!

Private Lake House 1 Hour to NYC & Near Westpoint

LoriRating, 5 stars6 days ago
WOW! Could not have been a more perfect stay! The setting was so beautiful, serene and peaceful. We had lot's of activity paddle boarding, kayaking, BBQing! Most of the time we were the only people on the lake. Early June was a perfect time to be there. It was just such a gorgeous and relaxing setting. The house was fabulous for our family reunion and ideal for our adventurous 1 year old. Our host was simply amazing. He had items delivered to our door when we had questions...even sent us a bag of groceries to make Smores on the lake! We hope to make this an annual event! We'll definitely be back.

Our stay was fantastic. Traveling with two toddlers, we're always looking for ways to keep them entertained, and there was a plethora of puzzles, games, and toys at the house. The house itself is well maintained and spacious. The community is wonderful with a sandy beach and waterfront playground. The golf cart was an added bonus!

Sunset Cabin Modern Home Kayak FirePit Lake Access

MollyRating, 5 stars2 weeks ago
Was visiting the area from Chicago for a friend’s wedding. The place was in such a cute neighborhood. I loved taking morning walks with our pup to ball pond and enjoying the peacefulness of the surrounding neighborhood (which was quiet and friendly!). Upon arrival it was very clean and well organized. The plus was the fenced backyard so our dog Andee could enjoy relaxing in the grass. There were also a bunch of great restaurants nearby and easy to door dash. Overall really enjoyed the stay and would book again!

Lake Cabin Escape–Fenced Yard+Firepit.Dogs welcome

DavidRating, 5 stars2 weeks ago
Wylda's cabin is just perfect—a cozy space right by the water, set on a quiet little street among the trees. I stayed here with a colleague for a work event, and the place was perfect. I highly suggest staying here! We were here during the spring, and the surrounding forest was beautiful; I imagine this place would be extra special during the winter. Wylda is a great host: excellent communication, and lots of suggestions. 10/10!
