Lake house vacation rentals in New Haven

Enjoyed our stay in the woods with a beautiful view of the river. Easy to get to and very close to the charming town of New Milford and many good restaurants. Although right off a busy road it was quiet inside the house. The great room, which is on the top floor, is wonderful and perfect for both working and entertaining and has a full bath. It looks like the photos with an amazing view. The bedrooms and another bath are underneath. The master bedroom is the best. Just be aware you can hear the footsteps from above and not all of the bedroom windows have bug screens. The entertainment room on the lower level which opens into the yard is filled with games and a large tv and was lots of fun. The weather was cool & rainy so we didn’t use the outdoor space as much as we thought we would but there was a kayak. The house was private and although there is no interior deadbolt we felt safe. The house was clean with good heat/ac and wi fi. Hosts were responsive.

If you're looking for a cute little cottage in the woods near the lake to recharge and relax - this is it! KC provided an extensive list of instructions and to know's, which made check in/check out and all the in-between fool proof. KC was super friendly and responsive as well!

Yasmina was such a great host! We stayed at the Airbnb for our wedding weekend. The house made the whole weekend a perfect one! Would absolutely recommend! Thank you again for all of your help Yasmina!

Thank you again for allowing us to stay at your place for two nights — it was an excellent stay! The location was perfect — we were just a short distance from downtown New Haven and within a long walking distance to Bones & Oyster (we ubered), which ended up being such a great spot that we went twice. The space was comfortable and well-kept, and we really appreciated how nice the area was. One small suggestion for future guests: it might be helpful to mention that firewood and propane aren’t provided — we would recommend picking some up beforehand if planning to use the firepit or grill. Thanks again for a great stay!

Loved our girls’ getaway on the North Fork! Mae’s house is the perfect spot with a quick walk to the beach and gorgeous views right from her backyard - even close drives to beautiful Southold, Mattituck, and Greenport. I will absolutely stay again!

Barbara was an excellent host, very accommodating to our needs particularly with check-in time. Her home was the perfect place for our traveling family members to stay to attend our son's wedding. Very clean with all the amenities as described. Although my family members spent the majority of their time at my house to attend all the weekend wedding festivities, they were very comfortable and enjoyed their stay at Barbara's house . Thank you so much Barbara for sharing your home with us!

This space was absolutely amazing. It was clean quiet and incredibly beautiful. As we sat looking out over the pond a young male deer with little stubby horns walked by, stopped to stare at us for a while, and then moved on. Obviously we already booked our return trip to stay again. I highly recommend this space to personal and business travelers. Enjoy!!!!

My family and I stayed at Moe's place for my daughter's graduation from Yale University, and we really enjoyed our 5 day stay. The house was beautiful, very clean and spacious enough to accommodate 14 of us. Moe was very responsive before check-in, during our stay and even after we checked out making sure our needs were met. If I have to do it again, I would stay at Moe's place.

Olivia has a lovely home! my friends and I got together for my birthday and it was amazing. lots of space for everyone. backyard is huge, and the game room is a great added extra. will be booking again soon!! the house was easy to get into and she was very helpful and responsive. also very close to Yale with good restaurants. thanks to Olivia 💕 for reference I had 13 people go, and there was a good amount of space for everyone to sleep.

Was a beautiful neighborhood nice and peaceful My dog loved the beach. Definitely recommend

The location suited our needs perfectly. It was close to our Jehovah’s Witness facility in Patterson NY. We had a morning tour which made it very convenient, only 20 minutes away. We not only enjoyed the peaceful quietness, we were also able to do a little fishing at the boat docks right on the property of Candlewood Isle and caught a few fish.☺️

We had a wonderful weekend at Aude's home in Essex. The setting was beautiful and the house itself was immaculate. It is a 7 minute drive to the center of town, which was convenient. The host was very responsive and quick to fix any concerns we brought to her attention. I would definitely return to this Airbnb!

Couldn’t have asked for more!! Space was clean and comfortable, check in was a breeze and the property was just what we wanted. Thank you for a nice relaxing get away.

My wife, friends, and I had an awesome time, and Thomas is very thoughtful. Second time renting from him, and last time I mentioned we made smores. For my wife, it was her first time. Guess what? He left us a smores kit! Thanks again, Thomas!

Really enjoyed our stay at Tom’s place. The house is so charming, quiet surrounding and very private. It was a perfect place to stay for three of us as a little gate away. When you have any question, Tom gets back to you very quick. Also access to the private lake club across the street was such a bonus. We enjoyed going there, swim, lay on the sandy beach…. Love to come back and stay again. Thank you for letting us stay in your lovely home.

Came for son’s college graduation weekend so really just needed a place to crash between events. The only negative was the blinds in the two bedrooms other than MBR do not shield out the light at all so some of us woke up when the sun came up!

Fantastic stay! The house was absolutely beautiful, plenty of space and very kid friendly. Scott & Jennifer were excellent hosts, replied quickly and were extremely friendly and helpful. They went above and beyond to make sure our family had a wonderful weekend.

The house was great with a beautiful view! We would definitely stay there again.

We had a wonderful long weekend break from the city. The home was easy to get to, and while it was close to restaurants, shops, parks, and orchards, it was also very peaceful and private, tucked away in a private community. The home has three levels and rooms are well distributed and thoughtfully decorated. The kitchen had everything we needed (including Keurig and standard coffeemaker). Outdoor grounds and lake are beautiful. Our hosts were friendly and helpful and we are thankful for their hospitality.

We had an absolutely fantastic stay at Gianna’s place, it is perfect for our group of 10 celebrating a birthday! Check-in was a breeze, and Gianna answered every question almost instantly. Every guest had a comfy bed (even the Murphy bed in the basement), and the indoor-outdoor flow was seamless thanks to the high-quality outdoor speakers that connected effortlessly to the house. We loved paddling around in the two kayaks and paddleboard, then kicking back on the private dock or by the fireplace surrounded by ample outdoor seating. Gianna even kindly extended our checkout by an extra hour (such a thoughtful touch)! Inside, the design is STUNNING; I left with so many renovation ideas of my own. We couldn’t have asked for a better host or space and would absolutely stay here again!

Beautiful place great host. Everybody had a great time.

We had a lovely stay at this beautiful Lake House. Everything was perfect—exactly as described in the listing and perhaps even better. You can’t beat the gorgeous lake view from the living room and primary bedroom. It was also one of the cleanest, most comfortable Airbnb’s I’ve ever stayed, especially the beds and pillows, which is rare for a rental. The kitchen is stocked with all the necessary supplies, and appliances and finishings were high-end. The host was very responsive and reliable. I would highly recommend and hope to return again!

What a view! This home stands out because of its location with a gorgeous view of the lake and the living area makes it easy to enjoy that view. We really liked how open, bright and airy the living/dining and kitchen areas were -- you get an unobstructed view of the lake from throughout these areas. The master bedroom even has a great view! The host was very responsive, answering questions quickly ... and she was so considerate to leave us a beautiful bouquet of daffodils. We appreciated being able to bring our doggie and there's a nice park for walking just a couple minutes away. There's also a nice, cozy lawn in front of the house that looks over the lake ... with a fire pit! Overall, we had a great time in this house on our early spring retreat!

Beautiful accommodations in a very convenient location! Right near the wedding we traveled to attend. We all enjoyed family meals in the spacious dining area and had plenty of room to cook together. Our family loves the out doors and the small pond, abundant trees and fire pit were a real plus! Highly recommend this Airbnb 🤓
