Absolutely a lovely stay. Home was very very clean, well stocked, comfortable seating and comfortable bed. Perfect for what we needed for our stay in CT. The pond/Lake was a bonus! Host was super amazing and very responsive to all my questions before checkin. Been on VRBo for over 10 years and I rate the home and service way above 5 stars. Thank you Joe and Sandi!!!!

Perfect UCONN adjacent hide-away!

this spot was the perfect hideaway for me while my daughter was at an interview weekend at UCONN. I was looking for a unique and comfortable spot to stay tucked away and get some work done. This house was right on the money. so much character. beautiful environment with a full immersive 'backyard' view of woods and lake. feels secluded while being just down the road from main campus. Process was easy. place is great...clean and chalk full of amenities and charm. Owner was a pleasure. I highly recommend and look forward to my next stay.
