- "What a great B&B! Can't say enough wonderful things about the property and Roseanne the Caretaker. Being in the house was a magical trip back into the 1800's (my time period!).....sitting and reading in the library was the most incredible "fix" for stress. We found the stay well-worth the 5+ hr. drive there from Pennsylvania on a visit to our newly relocated son and fiancee. Even though we stayed in the smallest room in the B&B which was found on the 3rd floor, the accommodations were wonderful. No problems whatsoever with the shared bathroom Would HIGHLY recommend this place."

- "I stayed here with my three bandmates while we were in the area to record an album at a nearby studio. This rental offered the perfect summer getaway feeling we were all looking for. The cottage is within walking distance of two beaches on the lake, nestled in a small community of lake houses that make you feel like you’re really in vacationland. The inside of the house itself was immaculate and everything we needed was readily available. The hosts were very communicative throughout the process with clear instructions for checking in and out. They even left a beach bag with towels and water bottles waiting for us when we arrived! The house was the perfect size for four of us, as we made use of both bedrooms plus the office area with a fold out couch. The screened in porch was so cute and the perfect place to hang out for morning coffee and evening wine. The whole thing was very affordable considering the size, location, and features. Thank you for hosting us! We would love to come back again."

WHY WE LOVE LAKESIDE FERNS:
** The 50 feet of private frontage on Lake Pocotopaug with a lakeside covered patio and Solostove fire pit. We provide plenty of water toys, too, including a canoe, a stand-up paddleboard (on request), sit-on-top kayaks, life vests and beach towels.

** Because this is also our personal vacation home, we’ve made it as comfortable and clean as possible. We also equipped and stocked it with family-friendly goodies like WiFi, Netflix, Keurig coffee machine (+ pods), outdoor-safe tumblers for cool drinks by the lake, Igloo coolers, charcoal and gas grills, even a jogging stroller (please request at booking)!
** Our home is an allergen-reduced environment, which means:
Regular air filter maintenance
Allergen-reducing protectors on all mattresses, box springs and pillows. (These also protect against bed bugs and dust mites.)
All linens are laundered in hypoallergenic, environmentally friendly, non-toxic soap (Charlie’s).
Two Himalayan salt lamps, which may help to reduce allergy and asthma symptoms.
** Every bed is a King-size bed (3 total). The bunk beds have been replaced with a daybed and trundle.

LOCATION
From downtown East Hampton, you can hike or bike the scenic Air Line Trail State Park. Plan a date night with dinner at the Gelston House, followed by a show at the historic Goodspeed Opera House on the CT River. Dine, shop and try your luck at Mohegan Sun Casino. End a day of antiquing at The Shops at Marlborough Barn with some comfort food from Sadler's Ordinary. Nearby Belltown Hill Orchards is the place to pick seasonal produce like apples, blueberries, cherries, and peaches.

We’re within 35 miles of Bradley International airport, Glastonbury (11 mi.), Hartford (20 mi.), and Middleton (9 mi.).

Located at the street level, there is a garage apartment where the caretaker of the property resides. The caretaker does not access the home, driveway or lakeside yard during guests stays. Please note our trash service pickup is early morning Wednesday as is our landscape service. You will see the caretaker removing and returning trash and recycle cans from the garage parking area to the street and back. The lawn service requires all outside furniture and watercraft to be put away as found at check in so they can mow on Wednesday mornings. Both trash pick up and lawn service days are subject to change without notice.

Minimum age requirements and maximum occupancy of 8

Events (house parties, reunions or weddings), pets and smoking are not permitted.

PLEASE READ: Why is the final rate higher than the rate listed?
We use variable rates so that we don’t exclude smaller groups. If I set just one flat rate, it would likely be too expensive for a couple or a small family—and a total steal for a group of 8! So the rate increases along with the number of guests.

If you divide the total rate by the number of guests, you’ll find the per-night fee per guest is a value for the experience you receive at Lakeside Ferns!

Fully stocked with kitchen things, towels and sheets. Loads of fishing, kayaking and swimming steps off the deck. The shallow swim area right there was perfect for the grands to put on their "floaties" and jump in any time...even early in the morning. Small beach next door provided a break for sand digging, jumping and sliding on inflatable trampoline. Lots of seating on the shaded deck. Most lunches and dinners eaten outside.

Also on the lower lever is the washer and dryer (laundry detergent provided). From the sliding doors on the lower level, you will exit onto the lower patio level with an outdoor eating area protected from the rain. The garage has been converted into a game room with a pool table and a ping pong table. Don't worry, there is still plenty of off road parking in the driveway in front of the garage and a secondary parking area at the side of the property. There is a Level 2 Electric Vehicle charging station in the garage, available for your use.

(Dock, water slide, swimming, kayaks, rowboat, canoe, and stand up paddle boards are available during the appropriate seasons only. The game room is unheated. )

Guests will have access to the entire house, except for one or two small locked supply closets. We love our area in every season of the year. Fall brings beautiful leaves and great hiking and mountain biking, or ride the Airline Trail. Winter is a peaceful quiet time here, with hiking, skating, cross-country skiing, and ice fishing. Spring means beautiful flowers, pleasant temperatures, more hiking and biking, and a return to boating. And I guess we don't need to tell you how beautiful summer is, and how much there is to do here. Year round, just over a mile away on the other side of the lake, is a nice gym called Team Fitness. We have made arrangements with them to provide discounted access to our guests for $10 per person for up to a week.

We're eager to hear from our guests, both about anything they may need and any ideas they have for improving the property. We may be able to help you with anything from finding babysitting to suggestions for activities to finding a mountain biking guide.

We are in the middle of a quiet friendly neighborhood. Spellman Point Road is a dead end road, so there is not a lot of traffic. Just a 3 minute walk down Bay Road is a Middlesex Land Trust park with trails for walking and mountain biking. Five minute drive to either Stop & Shop or Big Y for grocery shopping. Eight minute drive to the large playground at Memorial School. Lots of cute shops along downtown Main Street. 6 minute drive to the Air Line Trail, a great bike or walking rail trail.

We are right on Lake Pocotopaug, a beautiful body of water, providing boating and swimming opportunities. Across the lake from us is a town beach with a playground, and it is open to the public (although only residents can park there). We have a rowboat, kayaks and paddleboards for use by our guests, and a slide out on the water which kids will enjoy. On occasion the owners may also use the kayaks, paddle boards, rowboat or slide.

Plenty of free parking. Approximately 1 mile walk to Middletown Area Transit bus stop.

The owners of the house live in the adjacent property. We are always available by messaging for any questions or problems, and usually can come over in person if necessary.
If interested, check with your hosts about local baby-sitters, all kinds of biking expeditions, windsurfing and other local activities.

LONGER STAYS ARE AVAILABLE: there is a 17% discount for a week long stay. Contact owners for further details.

Some amenities are only available in specific seasons, for example waterfront amenities are available throughout the summer.

Only toilet paper in the toilets! NO "flushable wipes", paper towels, feminine products, etc. Ignoring this rule could cause you to lose days of your vacation, as the house is unusable if the sewer grinder pump fails.

We have never seen any dangerous animal in the yard. However, within a half mile of the property bobcats, foxes, and raccoons have been seen, and a black bear was reported within 2 miles of the property. Like everywhere in CT there are various insects and also ticks that could carry Lyme disease.

Everything you need is available on the entry level, with the exception of the laundry room. Within the house, there is a staircase from the entry level to the lower level. A child safety gate is installed at the top of these stairs. From the deck to the patio, there is a spiral staircase.

- "Well-attended to classic lakefront property on Lake Pocotopaug. Decking, outdoor seating, waterfront amenties, indoor activities (ping pong, pool, darts, board games) all very well thought out. Communicative and gracious hosts, we felt very at home, and we loved our stay 😊" - "We really enjoyed our visit. Best location on a very quiet section of the lake yet close to town with dining and shops. Beautiful lake with a great dock for swimming and kayaking. Dick & Linda are great hosts."

- "Our stay at The Lake House was very nice. Very clean, bright, and comfortable. This was the best way to accommodate my Mother-in-law to celebrate her Great Granddaughter's First birthday. She traveled from Los Angeles, Ca. The Lake House provided Cozy, comfortable place for the family to be together. Thank you i would rent again." - "We had a group of four adults, two kids (6 and 3), and one dog stay for three nights. The house is beautifully decorated, cozy and welcoming, and had enough room for all of us. The beds were very comfortable and we loved the extra blankets they had in a basket in the living room since we were able to snuggle up under them while watching tv. My kids had a lot of fun trying to play dominoes with their Aunt and Uncle, as well as playing in the backyard with the toy trucks in the shed and trying out the hammock - they had never seen one before and thought it was the coolest thing. The hosts were available and very responsive. House was clean and well taken care of. We didn’t get to use the fire pit, but we sat back there a few times and it was very peaceful. Our dog loved hanging out in the mulch with us. There is a steep hill between the house and one of the two beaches (two steep hills for the other one - we liked the second one better since it was sandier and you could walk in rather than climb in using stairs.) We found it easiest to walk to the beaches downhill then have one adult walk back to the house to get the car so we didn’t have to try and carry the kids and all the stuff back uphill. All in all, we had a fantastic stay and we’d definitely recommend Mohawk Cottage to anyone looking for a quiet and relaxing getaway on a beautiful lake."

- "We had such a wonderful stay here, the house was very clean and just a super cute little house. The host was very easy to work with and message. Would highly recommend!" - "We were in CT to help some family members with a move and decides to try fitting in some relaxation too. Josh's place was clean, well decorated with many nice touches: amenities in the shower, a fully stocked kitchen and extras for the dog. We only wish we'd been right on the water! We did have space to go down to the water and enjoy the sunset, listen to the birds and we met a friendly Mallard duck. Duck and dog did not make friends. 😂 Josh was very responsive to all communication. Bed was comfortable, shower was great! Highly recommend."
