New Lakefront Log Home

We had a lovely family autumn get-together here! Everyone raved about the amazing house and location. We loved the fire pit, the canoes, the wood stove, and the stars! We obviously did not ski, as it was only October.

The entire family LOVED it!The house is spacious inside and the AC was a godsend on the very humid days. Three full baths are fabulous, especially after swimming. The deck table is great.We used the boats every day.The private beach is perfect for the children and even has a shady part. Oh, and the town is lovely.We are already planning to come back next year, and will let Tim know as soon as the working adults know their vacation schedules.Thank you for wonderful stay.

Beautiful location on the lake.

In all of the homes I've ever rented through this service, I have NEVER thought that the pictures undersold the location--typically it is the other direction. But this home was beautiful--spacious, well-appointed and perfectly located. Communication with Tim was easy and quick. Also... there was an overnight snow that dumped about 6 inches... Tim arranged a plow to clear the driveway by 10 AM. Wonderful all around, look forward to returning!

We had a lovely stay with 2 families getting together for a ski weekend at Mount Snow (12 miles away). The house has plenty of space to spread out and has a nice view of the lake.

A beautiful view, super convenient to town, instructions were clear communication was good. Thanks for sharing your home and giving us a great stay

This was our 2nd stay at the property.

Lovely house. Kids enjoyed canoeing, paddle boards, and ping pong. Adults enjoyed the lake view and the hummingbirds, which were super-active around the deck (and also the canoe and ping pong). The house is quiet and secluded but only a short drive to lovely restaurants, hiking trails, and motor-boating. Check-in and check-out instructions were clear and easy to follow. Thanks for a great time.

Exactly what we were looking for for a weekend getaway from the city

This was our 3rd summer at Spruce Lake and as in years past, it was amazing. The location is perfect - just 2 hours and 15 minutes from Boston. The lake is ideal for kids and teenagers, big enough to support all the fun stuff (canoeing, SUPing, swimming and fishing) but small enough that there are no power boats and the kids can enjoy it independently without hovering parents. The house is perfect for a larger group with plenty of bedrooms/bathrooms and common space. We lucked out with the weather with the exception of one day that was so so, and made the hour ride to Jiminy Peak to do the mountain adventure package (alpine slides, mountain coaster and other activities) which was a blast. There is plenty of hiking and other activities closer as well. We always bring our own food and cook but there are plenty of restaurants in Wilmington and the surrounding area (Beer Naked Brewery!) Maybe next year we will finally do some hiking if we can get the kids to leave the lake! One of our favorite activities is cooking on the fire pit, and we made breakfast there each day. Just a few pieces of advice to pass along...based on previous years we brought kitchen trash bags and paper towels with us which was helpful. There are no dish towels in the kitchen - an easy fix - but would suggest bringing a couple. A cast iron skillet would also be helpful as most of the pans have seen better days. Thanks Tim for a great vacation. We look forward to coming back next summer!

While there was most of the expected equipment in place, the overall impression was not great. Can only say the description of the property was optamistic. A reported problem took 2 days to get a rsponse. Problem was resolved, but lack of acknowledgement of comunication was disappointing. Finally, upon arrival wiping out the fridge was needed.

Booked this house kinda last minute for a short get away. The owner was very responsive and answered all of my questions about the property. The location was excellent and many in the group enjoyed spending time in the lake. House was well maintained and roomy for my group. Would definitely stay again.
