Nice Lakehouse Stay
Our group of 2 couples enjoyed our week in the Hudson Valley area. We all commented on the excellent beds and pillows, the view of the lake from the house and the quiet of the neighborhood. Would stay here again.

Gilmore Mother Daughter Weekend
Our stay was lovely and the property was everything we needed for a perfect Gilmore themed weekend getaway! We loved the house and all the accommodations- the fire pit was the perfect cherry on top for our final evening in Connecticut. We saw shooting stars! We really enjoyed the kayaks on the lake. While it was laborious to get them down the hill and back up again, it was well worth the effort with the perfect weather we experienced this weekend!

Relaxing stay
The property had everything we needed for a relaxing stay and the property manager and cleaning crew were wonderful. Our family enjoys being outdoors and the surrounding area offered wonderful hiking options that we explored. The location was convenient to downtown if any supplies were needed. We were fortunate to have lovely weather so we took advantage of relaxing on the deck with a scenic view of Squantz pond. Overall a great experience, the only slight negative, as others have noted, is that the bed on the main floor is not comfortable due to being saggy. It would not deter us from returning, we had a great time.

So much potential
Location is great and if the house matched the pictures/was clean then it would have been perfect! The outside of the property was COVERED in spider webs and the deck (which looked pristine in the photos) was very dilapidated with the stain chipping everywhere and cushions dirty. We found 2 joints on the table. Inside we could tell was just cleaned, but unfortunately most of the kitchenware was dirty in the cabinets. Thankfully the location with pond views was so great that we still overall enjoyed our stay.

Great location, good enough house, poor communication
The good: We had a great time staying here. The first and second floor are beautiful and very well maintained. Both bathrooms and three bedrooms are very clean and have more than enough bath and beach towels. The fire pit and kayaks are also a great touch. The water is just steps away and the view is excellent. Just be sure to bring your own propane and firewood. What could be better? Communication with the host left a lot to be desired. I’m still not sure who runs the property. There are two names here on VRBO and then another contact when you get to the house. The host never responded to me on this site after I booked. To get a hold of them I had to find the property on another site and message them there. More frustrating I couldn’t get a hold of anyone when I had a problem checking out. One phone number had a full mailbox and I didn’t get a text back. On the other number someone hung up on me after I said three words and then ignored my texts and further calls. The kitchen also needs a deep cleaning. The cabinets were especially pretty grimy What tou need to know? This house can accommodate 3 adults and 1 child max. There is only a broken Murphy bed in the basement that is taped close and says not to open. Two members of our party had to sleep on the couch. The projector is broken. As another reviewer mentioned there is no audio because the speaker wires are cut and the only way to play video is through a chromecast. This after the host assured me it was tixed.

Peaceful Lake Getaway
We had a great stay at the lake house. Beautiful views from the deck and living areas. It was very nice having kayaks, life jackets, chairs and anything else needed to enjoy the lake on site. Our lake access across the street was very small and it was a workout getting the kayaks up the hills and back to the home. There was another beach access a short walk up the road but we mainly stayed at the one closest to the home. Squantz pond was beautiful and relaxing. It was perfect for taking the kids and beginners out to teach them how to kayak. Even on a holiday weekend it didn’t seem overcrowded with boat traffic at all. The house was very clean and had everything needed to cook our meals there. This place is perfect for a nice, relaxing family getaway.

Lovely stay, gorgeous views, super clean and well equipped home looking out on water.
We had a lovely weekend stay for a quick family get-away. The main kitchen and living area has spectacular views onto the lake as does the deck where we spent most of our time. The lake is just across the very quiet street. The kitchen is incredibly well stocked, the host super responsive and the rooms very comfortable. We did not use the well equipped basement work-out and additional TV space but it looked great. Easy to get to grocery store, hikes, local attractions but honestly we just loved sitting on the deck reading and playing games (tons of those in the house as well). Very clean as well. Highly recommend and would visit again.

Listing is deceptive – do not recommend!
Upon arrival, my friends and I were perplexed to only find 3 bedrooms, despite the listing stating FIVE - this meant we had to share rooms! We informed the property manager, and they thought that maybe when they updated the listing to account for the Murphy bed added to the basement, it may have also changed the bedroom count. We responded that even if that were the case, the bedroom count would be 4 not 5. We were offered an Uber eats gift card for the mistake, which we declined. We asked that the owner be contacted so we could discuss a more reasonable resolution, but the property manager did not follow up with us. They did manage to change the listing online from FIVE bedrooms to FOUR bedrooms though. Sidenote: the Murphy bed is situated among workout equipment in the basement and does not meet the standards of a bedroom. It cannot even be fully pulled down as it sits on top of the treadmill and bench press – and there is NO MATTRESS! The amenities list “hot tub”, yet it was unusable. It’s situated on a steep hill with no entry steps or ladder. The metal bunkbed was unsafe. The top bunk was missing a bolt on one end and the two bolts used to secure the other end clearly did not belong to this piece of furniture. We pulled the mattresses onto the floor to sleep safely. A guest that reviewed the property stated that the ground fl bed was “sunk in”. The owner replied saying that they “repaired the bed right away.” The mattress still sunk in, forcing you to sleep in the middle

Overall pleasant stay but falsely advertised
We enjoyed our stay at this property but to say the least, the pictured on VRBO do not accurately represent the upkeep of the property and its grounds. It is clear that this property is either fairly new and unfinished or going through renovations. The surround sound was not complete making it difficult to use the movie room. Overall, there are multiple things that are either completely different, not there at all, and or not working. Our host was very responsive and kind and the location is beautiful.
