- "Very clean which is important to me." - "Would definitely stay again! Clean spacious room with comfortable beds and a river view too! Staff was friendly upon arrival. " - "The hotel is only rated 2 stars, but the reviews that I read before booking were all positive so I took a chance. I'm very glad I did. The room was very neat, clean and odorless. There was a fridge, a microwave, and a coffee maker which was convenient. We even had a view of the river which was nice. I gave lower stars for customer service because I tried to call the hotel before we left to ask a question and no one answered the phone after several tries. I realize they may be short-staffed and can't stay at the front desk but they should carry a cell phone to answer any calls. Otherwise, I would definitely recommend this hotel. "

This beautiful 1905 New England Cottage, that was once a local bakery, is the perfect location to enjoy Connecticut, fun local excursions and activities. Hiking trails are around the corner, and a lake surrounded by rolling, golden hills is 3 minutes down the road, perfect for kayaking. So come and relax, reconnect with nature, or do both! A complimentary, chilled bottle of Prosecco will be waiting for you!

This fully remodeled, light filled, 1900 sqft home includes two working fireplaces, a large Great room, spacious living, dining, and sleeping areas, a dedicated office space, a laundry room, a patio, and a back deck. Its lay-out is convenient, with two bedrooms 2 steps up from the main floor. The bedrooms feature fresh, European style bedding. The twin beds downstairs have new green tea-infused mattresses, the sheets are manufactured by women-owned businesses, and the guest toiletries are all natural and infused with essential oils. Every bedroom has beautiful views of the park-like grounds. The fully equipped, large kitchen with spacious dining area makes it fun to cook and gather, and the private back deck and small front patio are perfect for morning breakfast and evening cocktails! There is fast WiFi and a smart TV in the living room, and, just in case you want to disconnect from it all, a great selection of board games and puzzles, books and magazines. There is also a basket with arts and crafts activities for children. Two functioning fireplaces, one in the kitchen and one in the living room, will bring a special ambiance to your evenings. To start you off, we will supply one deck box full of wood. After that, you are free to collect wood from the property yourself.

(There are also baby supplies, such as a crib, a bassinet, a highchair, and a pack & play.)

This New England Cape sits on what was once a sheep farm. The family who owned the land 200 years ago held Dorset sheep, hence the property's name, and as you explore the area, you will see street names that reflect the history of the property. The barn of the main house still has the troughs where they would feed the animals. At one point, the guest house was a local bakery, and an oven in the basement is witness to that venture. The entire property is surrounded by a wooded Land Reserve, ensuring privacy. We have deer, wild turkeys, and hawks that regularly visit our grounds, and from time to time a red fox will cross the property.

The Center of Brookfield and neighboring towns with their restaurants are between a 5- and 15-minute drive away. Kent Falls, the towns of Kent and Litchfield, at the foot of the Berkshire mountains, are a scenic 40-50 minutes away. Other charming towns close to us (within a 15-mile radius) include Newtown, Bridgewater, Roxbury, and New Milford. There are many restaurants, shops, and art galleries around. The Elephant's Trunk, the famous flea market held on Sundays in New Milford from May to October, is a 10-minute drive away.

We live in the main house on the property, and we will leave you as much privacy as you desire. We are always happy to guide you to our favorite local eateries, the hiking trails, access to the lake, and other local activities.

We are multi-lingual, and apart from English, speak Dutch, French, Swedish, and German.

The main floor, which has french doors leading out to the lake, has a 9 foot rustic farm table that all can break bread together. The fully stocked kitchen with all of the comforts of home has a butcher block countertop and stainless appliances. A big cozy couch (which is a sleep sofa) can seat many to either hangout or watch a good movie on the TV that is mounted over the other fireplace.

Behind the sliding barn door is a bar area with a half bath and a perfect area for cocktails and conversation. Toys, games and other goodies for your littles are in the back area to keep your little ones occupied. A bar complete with barstools and plenty of storage for your weekly supplies during your stay.

While we could go on about the house... the community has plenty to offer to families. Just a short walk is a ball field, and bocci and horseshoe courts. Jungle gym, hoops court as well as a tennis court if you want to get away for an hour or so. The beach in the front of the house is the best though. Walk the kids down, and set up for the day.

Minimums: 6 night stay mid-May through Labor day

- "Perfect in every way. We loved everything about this lake house. The owners have done an amazing job of creating the perfect oasis for fun AND relaxation. Highly recommend." - "unanimous (including 2 year old) absolutely perfect rating. this home had more than everything you could want for vacation. the lake was wonderful for the three little ones--two, five and seven. family oriented location. really good local restaurants. dont think we could have picked a betterplace for our family to stay."

Best view of the lake! This home has gone through a major make-over and has been transformed to a place you aren’t going to want to leave. With it’s amazing deck and direct access to the lake - there will be so much to do as a family or with friends. It’s a perfect get-a-way to recharge and rejuvenate. The convenience of shopping, eating out, or just walking around town is only 12 min away. The house will be fully equipped along with Kayaks, to enjoy your stay on this beautiful lake!

- "I’m going to be honest! I was initially worried about going due to an update receive by the owner the day of check in. We showed up and what seemed like a mountain, became a molehill. He mentioned a few things needed repair, on check in day which I was not happy about, but they were so insignificant due to all the other amenities, and the location, the views, the beautiful kitchen, the comfortable bed, the privacy, the water actives, and getting to fish off the dock ect, ect, ect! Those are the things that made are stay one of the absolute BEST mini vacations ever! I will say the outdoor grill was either clogged or not working properly and needs repairing or to be replaced. That’s pretty common with grills, not surprising though. We were able to use the gas stove/oven which cooked quickly, and efficiently, and sufficed our personal needs. Overall our stay was a 5. Too many good things to worry about the small. Thank you Vico ! We enjoyed the vacation thoroughly and would recommend this property to anyone looking to have a peaceful stay, connect with nature and a comfortable and large enough space to enjoy your family and friends."

- "Perfect!" - "What a great house and amazing location. We spent a fantastic, fun filled weekend with friends and their 2 children doing all the lakeside activities you'd hope for - swimming, canoeing, barbecuing, s'mores around the firepit and generally relaxing. Michael, the host, couldn't have been more helpful. Just one other thing to share - the garden is pretty steep (as the photos clearly show, so no complaints) which is a minor work out for people such as myself to get back up to the house from the lake - all in all, not a bad thing, it helped to justify that extra beer!"

- "Had a great time at this beautiful lake house in CT. There were 8 of us in our group and felt that we had plenty of space. Loved the dock by the lake- had so much fun fishing, swimming and just lounging around. We rented a few kayaks for a couple days which were delivered to the house. Lesley (owner) was so friendly and helpful every step of the way from check in to check out. There were helpful messages throughout the house that explained everything you needed to know…so organized! I will definitely plan a return trip."

Lake, pool and a house stocked with just about anything you could think of (Fridges everywhere, multiple ice machines, multiple dishwashers, new kitchen, towels, sunscreen. pool toys, sports equipment, bbq tools, you name it!).

The place was clean, comfortable, and modern. Saleem was very helpful and accommodating. The apartment is attached to the main house, but it was so quiet and peaceful in our space. We would definitely stay here again!" - "The home is very much as it looks on Vrbo. It's very nicely decorated and spacious for 2 people, yet cozy. The owner was very easy to communicate with and went out of his way to make sure we had everything we needed. Much thought was put into accessories. We would have liked more time to enjoy a stroll around the property, but our schedule didn't allow it. Great place for one or two people. It's a nice spot on a country road, with a babbling brook, yet nearby several New England downtowns."

- "Rarely when traveling are my expectations exceeded but I would rate this property a 10! The cottage is like a storybook and decorated perfectly. From the second we walked in, it was 90 degrees but the central AC was blasting away. The grounds were perfect, the pool was perfect, the cozy kitchen, the cute bathroom and Geoff and Mieke gave us such a warm welcome. We definitely hope to be back often." - "Just minutes from Newtown, yet completely in the quiet of the beautiful Connecticut countryside…. We totally enjoyed our stay! Geoff greeted us in the driveway and was welcoming and super helpful the whole time :) The cottage is beautifully furnished, cozy, and comfortable….very unique! Plus the property is gorgeous… Highly recommend -"
