Summer and Early Fall Lakeside Cottage Rental

Unacceptable level of security: the property was just left open with keys on the table for check-in. No house number was posted on the property and there were no trespassing signs, so we were uncomfortable entering. We could not locate a key that would work to lock the door and secure belongings, and host was not responsive after calling for help, and only replied 18 hours later within the VRBO messaging system that attempted to make it appear we were doing something wrong. We did not feel safe staying at the property, so simply left and found accommodation at a nearby inn.

Very nice property that provided what we were looking for, which was a place on the lake to swim and relax. The family enjoyed every minute of the stay. If you know and understand a summer lake house in New England this is that place. It provides the amenities like a place to lay your head, cook a meal but the main purpose is to sit out back and enjoy the lake. Thanks for the stay, the family loved every minute and didnt want to leave.

My family loved it, everything you want for a lake getaway!

Nice !

Place was as advertised. My family enjoyed our stay at Great East!

Nice summer home on Great East Lake. Quiet sandy beach with rope swing. This home worked perfectly for our group while attending a wedding nearby. Good communication with the owner. I would definitely recommend for a family vacation or small group of friends.

My friends and I had a delightful time. The place is definitely outdoor living; I had the best room in the house, but the other bedrooms upstairs were a wee bit wee. Downstairs is bunk style, which was just fine for the kiddos. Who spends time indoors when the lake is calling? The kitchen had room enough and everything we needed to cook up meals for eating on the porch or down at the picnic table. Nancy was a great and communicative property manager, and when issues arose they were quickly resolved. Honestly I was a tiny bit tempted to give a less than stellar review just to keep this gem hidden 😂 but Nancy deserves the five stars. You probably have to be a lover of the outdoors, in which case this place is magical. And if you're not, I don't speak your language anyway, look elsewhere for a review. But for the workaholics who can't help but eyeball their inbox, there was *some* AT&T and Verizon service during our stay - just enough for those quick communications that got me back in the water. The library is a couple minutes away if you need to download or send any attachments. Oh, and the neighbors were rad - great supply of firewood for sale just next door!

We had a great time! Hoping to make it a yearly thing.

This home offers guests an incredible Location with scenic views and friendly neighborhood with plenty to do and a lot to say me and my buddies had a great weekend getting away from the city enjoying our time on a beachy lakefront cabin :)

Enjoyed a great little getaway at a classic older style place. The location is really fun, peaceful and easy going!
