    My friend and I stayed here while visiting family in the area. The area is absolutely beautiful and we didn't want to leave. The cottage is a perfect size and we enjoyed cooking dinner there a few nights. The deck is the perfect spot to unwind. I loved just sitting there and soaking up the views and sounds of nature. The pond is the perfect size to kayak and it was so nice not to have to worry about speedboats ruining the peace. I will absolutely stay in this home again when I visit! When I access the pictures on my Canon, I'll forward them to you if you'd like.

    Overall was a great stay. Wonderful location and very private. Loved the lake and the deck. The kitchen was well stocked and the views of the lake are beautiful. I would suggest a microwave (there was none) and some pot holders. I was also surprised that we had to haul our own garbage at the end, but perhaps this is rural living. Hosts were great and very responsive. Great lake access and very much enjoyed the kayaks.

    If you are looking for peace, quiet and serenity this is just the place. The home was emasculate and the owner was wonderful. She gave us very detailed information about our stay and checked in with us to see if everything was ok or if we needed anything. This was a very relaxing and enjoyable week. I highly recommend

    The house was impeccably clean and beautifully furnished. The views of the lake were spectacular. It was so quiet and peaceful. The deck was amazing and we enjoyed most meals outside on the deck.

    We had a delightful week at this clean and comfortable home with everything you need for. Summer holiday- a lovely lake for swimming, a kayak and canoe for boating, a deck for grilling and dining and beautiful parks in the area for hiking. We can’t wait to return.

    From booking through check-out our experience here was perfect. The owner was very attentive to any questions we had before, during and after our stay. The house was spotless when we arrived and furnished with state of the art appliances, a spa-like shower and comfortable beds. The property itself was exactly what we were looking for: private and tranquil with plenty of outdoor furnishings for dining, lounging (the hammock was a true highlight!) and fishing. We have stayed in many lake houses over the years and this is one we definitely plan to return to. Highly recommended!!

    The joys of this place are all about the views from the wall of windows and outdoor deck. The clean lines of the interior do nothing to distract, and the owners have supplied most anything you’d need. The “long pond” is beautiful, quiet, and perfect for kayaking. Check out the hiking trails at nearby White Memorial Conservation Center and the fresh produce at March Farm. All in all, a great place for a weekend or a longer getaway.

    The most striking feature of this thoughtfully-designed modern cottage is the abundance of large windows wrapping around the entire house always giving you a gorgeous panoramic view of the beautiful lake and wooded surroundings. We loved waking up in the morning to be met by light pouring inside from the rising sun across the lake. The home itself is stylish and comfortable at the same time, and we enjoyed cooking in the large kitchen with its sleek cabinets and spacious countertops. To top it all off, the personal dock out back was our daily jumping-off point onto Lake Meadow Pond in the kayak and canoe that come along with the house. This home was a gem, on an equally priceless lake, that provided us with much beauty, comfort, and rest.

    We had the nicest time at this charming, modern cottage on the lake. The home was well appointed, newly renovated and very comfortable for two couples. The deck overlooking the lake was the perfect place to enjoy the afternoon! We hope to come back soon and enjoy this beautiful location in the warmer months.
