Perfect, cozy and quaint
Susan was the most warm and thoughtful host! She was there when we checked in and left us a lovely welcome basket! We were three couples traveling for baseball playoffs. The weather was dreary, but we all still enjoyed the view and the fireplace made it very cozy! The kitchen was absolutely charming, felt like a step back in time. Everything that needed to be was modern and comfortable, while still maintaining old world charm. Clean, organized, cheery - everything you would want in a rental!

Everything about the cottage was perfect for our graduation weekend and family get together. Susan thought of every detail and made it a home away from home. We will definitely be back. The beauty and peacefulness of waking up to the sun on the lake will remain in my memory. Even the cloudy mornings and the light rain on the roof were delightful.

PERFECT COTTAGE, PERFECT WEEKEND
I have stayed in many rentals over the years and we have always had nice experiences however, our experience with the cottage in Coventry was off the charts...EXCELLENT. We were in town for UConn's Parents Weekend and opted for a rental this time vs a hotel. So happy we did! The cottage was EXCEPTIONALLY clean, warm, so cozy with wonderful little touches everywhere. As someone who likes to entertain and host guests, I notice and appreciate ALL the little details- and there were many( and all very special). We originally had concerns over only one bathroom (with 5 of us staying), but it was a non issue. The bedrooms were a good size, Comfortable beds/bedding, plenty of towels, and conveniences like toiletries, coffee pods and a fully stocked kitchen if you choose to cook in (we did 2 nights). We loved the porch overlooking the beautiful lake, took advantage of the kayaks and bird watching ;) Only 10 minutes to campus and my kids (18, 20 and 21 years old) loved the experiences as much as we did! The owner Susan was LOVELY and was so kind with excellent response time. We so enjoyed talking with her and hearing the history of the cottage. And even though she is on property she was wonderful with giving us our space and privacy however, we are a chatty family and LOVED our conversations with her!) I would rent here again in a HEARTBEAT. You can just feel the positivity on this property, its a special place for sure.

Beautiful Cottage on the Lake
Our family had a great stay! The view of the water cant be beat. The cottage had plenty of room for the four of us to stay comfortably. The cottage was in perfect condition and came with everything we needed. I would highly recommend and we look forward to staying again!

Wow!!!
Our little house was magical!!! We couldn’t have asked for a better place to be! The lake, the birds, the ducks, the canoe ride and our welcome basket went above and beyond our expectations!!! There was no doubt about this charming home being perfectly clean. The fireplace was warm and cozy and the scattered flower arrangements were so welcoming!!! We can’t wait to come back!!!! ❤️
