Clean and quiet on a nice little lake
Clean cottage with great lake views. It was a little colder than we anticipated, but we still tried to get out and enjoy the property as much as possible. The nature trails were nice for a little walk.

Great Easter Trip
The property was exactly as pictured and described, and the owner was readily available and easy to communicate with. We were allowed to check in early and the property was great for our extended family egg hunt! Will definitely come back!

Such a relaxing stay!!!
We had a fabulous time! Between walking the property, kayaking, sitting by a fire at night and chilling in the hot tub, I can’t pick which we enjoyed the most because they were all wonderful!!! If it had been a little warmer we would have also made great use of the screened in porch. We found that even though Manchester is small, it has some great places like the market, the distillery and the diner. The diner had amazing breakfast!! We also really enjoyed the indoor space. The views of the lake from the bedroom were awesome. And sitting by the indoor fire was also very nice. Would definitely stay again!!!!

Thanksgiving getaway with friends
Our party of 7 (4 adults and 3 kids) stayed over the Thanksgiving holiday. We have had this tradition of meeting up for the last decade. The house had ample space for us all. We enjoyed fires outside and relaxing in the hot tub at night. It was too cold during our stay to enjoy playing on the lake but we enjoyed looking at it. The view with the sun rising in the morning was gorgeous. With the cold air we really appreciated the heater in the corner. It was amazing. The kitchen was stocked with everything we needed. We all want to buy a counter top ice maker now. We enjoyed walking the trails behind the house.

Great Weekend
The house and amenities are exactly as listed. The place was very clean and the kitchen was well supplied with all the needed utensils. My group loves to cook and we had great time. Very nice property at the end of dead end road which made it private and peaceful.

Girl's weekend
The cottage was the perfect place for our girl's weekend. We took advantage of the beautiful weather to kayak, have a bonfire and enjoy the hot tub. The cottage was clean, comfortable, fully stocked and close enough for DoorDash to deliver. We thoroughly enjoyed our time at Lake Sweezey and would definitely return.

Perfect weekend for R&R
We loved the cottage. It was clean and had everything we could possibly need. The cookies were a nice touch. The view is unbelievable and the swans came by multiple times. We even took the paddle boat out on the water with our girls. They loved the big yard and the swing. There was plenty to do for both the kids and adults. We had a couple fires, grilled yummy steaks, enjoyed the hot tub and made s’mores. The house is comfortable and clean. Thank you for sharing your home with us. We hope to come back in the summer next year to really enjoy the lake and trails.
