We had a great stay with our adult children. Enjoyed the area visiting the Barker Museum and a local brewery and tavern. Everyone had a turn on kayaks and plenty of time for games and relaxing!
We were in the area for our Sons religious professions in Cheshire. We were close to him. We loved Hitchcock Lake during the down times. The kayaks were well used. We fished and swam. We were outside from sun up to sundown. The kitchen had everything we needed. This was our second visit. Just wonderful.
This wonderful lake house is extremely clean, comfortable and well-appointed. The outdoor space is perfect for relaxing by the lake and it was lovely to just walk out the door and go for a float or a paddle. The owners were super helpful and easy to communicate with. Would highly recommend!
The house and backyard is a renters dream. Lovely accommodations await especially by the owners. This piece of paradise is just what our family was looking for.
From the owner: "Thank you so much for your wonderful review and you were a great guest! We welcome you anytime soon!"
Beautiful house; everything you possibly could need is there. The beds were comfortable. The lake views were incredible. But the best part of our stay were the hosts. They were friendly and helpful and just plain wonderful!!I’d recommend this inn to ANYONE. You won’t find anything like it.
