Perfection in Southampton
I have stayed at the Big Fresh Pond home 4 times since 2015 and it never fails to deliver. The home is both spacious and warm... The home is perfectly designed with attention to detail, down to the beautiful pillows!
It is ideally located in a quiet neighborhood on the gorgeous large pond (great for row boating, swimming, and catching frogs) but a quick drive into town and all that Southampton has to offer.
I would not hesitate to recommend this lovely home to friends and family; in fact I have already done so :) It is a truly magical home.

Thank you!

Perfect Girls Weekend
The house was absolutely beautiful and spacious. My girl friends and I had the best time relaxing by the lake, grilling in the yard, and relaxing in the home. It was also an easy cab to town and the beach. It was a great weekend and stay overall. The owner was even very responsive after the weekend when a personal item was left in the house. I would definitely recommend and stay again!
Dear Tia,
We are so glad you enjoyed your stay! Come back and visit us anytime!

EXCELLENT!!! It doesn't get better
This is our second summer at this lake house. The house is spacious and super clean. The mattresses were very comfortable and everything in the house is top notch. New clean towels and sheets, fully equipped kitchen, outdoor shower, BBQ.
The lake is relaxing for adults and fun for kids.
The owners were warm and accommodating and thought of everything. I highly recommend spending family time in this charming lake house in a beautiful neighborhood.
Glad your family enjoyed! Hope to have you back next year!

Love Love this place ! !
We have made such great memories at this lake house - so fun! This visit was a relaxing and fun girls trip with best friends and sister in laws. It is perfect for the lazy days of relaxing at the lakefront on the dock, with coffee and a good book in the morning and a glass of vino at night with the gals.. The accommodations ooze luxury bedding with attention to detail in every room of the this house, plus I slept like a baby ! There are a couple of nice restaurants near by that were very good and not too far to a great winery. And yes the outdoor shower is glorious ! The owners were lovely.. We will be back in the fall to sit in front of a nice roaring fire going in that great living room. We have already booked a few more days!
Makes us so happy to hear your stay was everything you hoped it would be! Thanks for staying with us!

Oasis on Big Fresh Pond!
My girls-only visit was the absolute best. The tranquility and beyond breathtaking view at the lake was a recipe for perfection. The house always feels like a home away from home, but better, with its fully appointed kitchen, beautifully decorated furnishings and cathedral living room. Nothing better than sharing a glass of wine, sitting on the huge deck, listening to the birds, the clean, sweet smell of the fresh air, reminiscing with your gal pal, oh, except for the outdoor shower, my personal fav. Can't wait for the next time!
So glad you enjoyed Susan! We look forward to having you back soon!
Best,
Laura
Beautiful Lake Home!
Our group had the best time staying at this house over the Fourth of July weekend! The pictures do not do the house justice, it is quite large, airy, and immaculately clean! The neighborhood and lake are a peaceful, tranquil setting, and we had the best time grilling, playing frisbee in the backyard, and lounging on the floating dock! The kitchen is also fully stocked and there were plenty of beach chairs for when we went to Road D beach which is free and a short drive away. Laura is a pleasure to work with and made our stay seamless. I highly recommend this house, we hope to come back next year!
So happy you enjoyed Megan! We hope you come back and visit us soon!
