This cabin was one of the most relaxing places I have ever stayed. It had amazing views of Eagleville Lake where you could watch ducks, egrets, and swans every morning. It was such a comfortable play to stay for a week. The kitchen was very well stocked and spacious.The bed in the primary room was incredibly comfortable. Finally, the host was kind and responsive. We hope to stay at the cabin again in the future!
Before I arrived I contacted Trisha to see if she could stage some flowers and champagne to surprise my fiance for our anniversary. Not only did she do that but she got her a balloon and a box of chocolate also. Trisha went above and beyond in my opinion. The place was better then what we expected. The hot tub was a perfect temperature and everything was all around awesome.
I cannot say enough about this beautiful house. Felt welcomed and at home from the moment I arrived. Trisha left a bottle of wine and a cheese plate to snack on when I arrived which I enjoyed while enjoying the beautiful water view. The bed was incredibly comfortable and I very much enjoyed the hot tub overlooking the water. My only complaint is my visit was too short!!! Will definitely be returning.
Charming place with everything needed. Location was perfect for a long weekend visit to UCON. The host was great and made sure everything was perfect. Would definitely stay again.
Negatives: 1. Our stay didn’t start out on the perfect foot - it was musty on arrival (fine after airing out). Then Trisha called a few hours after check-in that repairmen would be coming to fix the hot tub. The heating component worked, but not the jets. The hot tub was one of the key reasons we chose this location, as was solitude - so having two men and then the host show up and run around the place was not ideal. The repairmen didn’t fix the jets and broke the heater. Trisha was extremely apologetic and kind and provided a partial refund. 2. No blinds or curtains, and a LOT of windows 3. Third bed is in a room without a door at all. To be fair, listing doesn’t list this as a bedroom, but I assumed it was an office with a door - it’s right off the front door and you can see out one of the front/side windows from the bed. Positives: 1. The house is very well-appointed. 2. All 3 beds were very comfortable. 3. The bathrooms were nice and clean. 4. The seating - a loveseat and a chair - were comfortable. 5. The kitchen had SO much stuff to use (oils, spices, pots, pans, etc) 6. Really nice wood-burning stove, gas grill, and fire pit 7. The location of the house is really the biggest seller. The pond/lake is beautiful, and both the yard, the deck, and all the windows in the house allow you to see it a lot. There was a 2-person kayak and a SUP board, which were a really fun bonus. It’s just a very, very beautiful and special property.
The cottage was adorable, right on a beautiful lake with walking trails nearby. It was perfect for a quick getaway from the city and we especially enjoyed the hot tub and fire pit right on the lake shore.
