Authentic, vintage family cottage
This is a much loved family cottage in a stellar location directly on the water, nestled amongst other cedar shake cottages of roughly the same vintage. Our stay was in the winter and we found the heating system to be a bit sluggish, especially in the kitchen, although the upstairs bedrooms were toasty. Be aware that the upstairs twin bedroom has only a curtain separating it from the hallway, and lacks curtains on the exterior window. The fireplace and well-stocked bookshelf, including books written by the owners family (!), were a very nice unexpected bonus. The bathrooms and kitchen, in which we cooked a full Thanksgiving dinner, are very functional but showing their age. To us this added to the charm and authenticity of the property but it might not appeal to all renters. Another unexpected bonus was the extensive network of hiking trails in Cockaponset state forest, with a trailhead just a few miles from the house. We greatly appreciated the owners opening their home to renters, and very much enjoyed the comfortable, family feel of the cottage, and of course the amazing location.
