Amazing property with spectacular views and sunsets

Our family from Boston and NYC met in the middle at this beautiful location for a Fall long weekend. The lake views did not dissapoint and we were treated to a beautiful sunset all 3 nights. The house is spacious with a dream kitchen and every amenity. The host, David, was very easy to communicate with, quick to respond and very helpful. We hope to visit again!

Family vacay

A great week enjoying gorgeous views of the Branford River from the house, deck and water. Great beds for sleeping. Well furnished kitchen. Really nice neighborhood for walking and biking. We are all missing those views of boats, birds and tides already.

Girls Getaway

The house was perfect for our annual getaway. We are a group of nine women who have been friends for over 45 years. The large well stocked kitchen with amazing view of the water and fireplace made our Friendsgiving meal memorable! The outdoor hot tub, fire pit, and deck with comfy seating topped off the weekend. Great location, plenty of parking, responsive host. 5/5 stars!

The Game #139

This was the most amazing home to stay at. Meticulously maintained by the owner/host. It is clear that this is a special family retreat. There is nothing to want from this place. A wonderful spa retreat with a hot tube to watch amazing sunrises and sunsets. An elegant main bathroom with large soaking tube overlooking the water. A Steam shower worthy of the best destination spas. Kiel bath products. Fully stocked cooking and grilling needs. On top of that a fitness center with rack and treadmill overlocking the water.
