My time spent at the lake house with my family was unforgettable. Nestled along the serene shoreline, the house offered stunning lake views from every window. Mornings began with coffee on the spacious deck, watching the sun rise over the water. Days were filled with family fun. The house itself was cozy yet modern, with plush furnishings, a crackling fireplace, and a fully-equipped kitchen where we cooked meals together. Evenings were spent playing board games, hanging out by the fire pit. It was the ideal blend of relaxation, connection, and nature.
This is a lovely, well appointed lake front home with a view that can’t be beat. Well appointed with everything you need for a vacation. Outdoor fire pit and hot tub overlooking Candlewood Lake. Would definitely recommend.
Beautiful property— even more than the pictures (which is often rare). Quiet, scenic, and spacious. Communication with the host was very good and helpful.
We had a perfect two night stay at this great house!
Exactly as advertised and great views and access to the lake.
Our boys loved fishing and kayaking and it’s a nice quiet neighborhood for relaxation.
We would definitely go back
We came back to the area and wanted a place that had ample space for our 5 older children. The house was stocked beautifully, more so with fishing poles, and kayaks which were used daily. It was a wonderful time with fun memories.
We planned a long weekend at this beautiful lake house on Candlewood Lake to celebrate my father’s 80th birthday. What a great place to get together with family and to celebrate.
The house was beyond our expectations. It was airy and clean and the views were spectacular. The house had every amenity you could think of and then some. I imagine that this home is even lovelier during the summer.
The house was easy to get to, and there were lots of markets and stores (Stew Leonard, Costco, etc.) which made cooking and eating in much more enjoyable.
The owners were lovely and accessible and responsive.
I highly recommend this home for your next trip.
We reunited as college friends for the weekend and had a great time. We stayed in the winter so we didn’t use the lake, but we went down to the dock and enjoyed the view—which was also great from every room of the house. Outside and inside spaces were big enough for large groups. You are close enough to town to have food and groceries delivered. Lots to do at the house like games, fire pit, grilling, hot tub. The host is very helpful and responsive. Highly recommend!
Our group stayed here over Thanksgiving and had the best time. The house is beautiful - directly on Candlewood Lake with a sprawling property. The large entertaining spaces (kitchen, living room, dining room, game room, outdoor patios) made this the perfect property for our group. Everything was extremely well-stocked (kitchen supplies, cleaning supplies, extra towels, etc.), and the owners have done an incredibly thorough job including instructions on how to use everything from the jacuzzi all the way down to the coffee maker - which was so helpful throughout our stay.
Great place for my girls getaway on the lake. This home has beautiful views and the house is extremely spacious with plenty of room for fun activities. It is a direct waterfront home, free kayaks available and an option to rent their pontoon boat. Having a dock to also hang out and spend time with the views was amazing. Peter was a very responsive host. We will be back! Thank you
We had a group of 6 adults and two young kids and found this home to be well suited for group fun and entertainment. House is spacious with great views, pool table, hot tub, fire pit and an awesome dock! Peter & Matt we’re very communicative, available and really went out of their way to make sure we had the best possible stay. We will definitely be back!
Great place for a family getaway on the lake. Nice views and house is spacious and new. Plenty of room for activities. Direct waterfront with free kayaks available, and dedicated dock was nice. Matt was a very responsive host.
This house was a great stay. The hosts were in contact with us the whole time. As they have written in their posting, there are QR codes everywhere in the house which were super helpful! They’re basically mini videos on how to use everything. It was very helpful. The house was very clean, updated and modern. The kitchen is beautiful and updated, had all of the appliances and dishes/cookware/utensils we’d need. There were Keurig cups left for us, along with other items that were very helpful. Lots of towels, toilet paper and paper towels as needed. The house itself sits on a beautiful lake property. There’s a porch with comfortable furniture overlooking the lake. There are a lot of stairs to get down to the dock, but it’s worth the climb. Beautiful dock, with two great lounge chairs and kayaks available for use. The house also has a hottub and pool table which were great for us. I would definitely recommend this house to anyone looking for a lake house stay.
