Beautiful Lakeside Waterfront Cottage with Private Beach

This is a roomie cottage for four people, but you will be spending all of your time on the screened in porch or plunked in front of the fireplace. The pond is very swimmable, with a raft, canoe, paddle boat, etc. For those who like the outdoors, this is the place for you. There are many hiking trails nearby. There are plenty of places to kayak. Bicycling on the roads is fine, because it is rural, but there are lots of steep hills. When Ray and Sue say they supply everything but beach towels, clothes, and food, they mean it! They are very thoughtful with the accommodations...more so than any other comparable place we have stayed at. The cabin does sit very close to their residence, but they do respect your privacy. Overall we had a fabulous time and hope to be back soon!

My boyfriend and I came here for a week in August and had a great time! The lake house has a gorgeous view that you can enjoy from the screened porch (no bugs!). The area is very quiet and peaceful, which we appreciated since we wanted to get away from all the noise in NYC. The house comes with just about everything you could need to cook, freshen u,p and relax. We especially liked being able to grill every night :) We took full advantage of the canoe and paddle boat (there's also a row boat), as well as the raft. We even got a great view of the meteor showers while we enjoyed a campfire on the shore.

The community is lovely and there's plenty to do within a short distance. We went hiking on the Tully Lake Trail (about 4 miles), visited Wachusett Brewery (about a half hour drive away), went to a local antique shop/barn, and ate at some great restaurants (SS Lobster and The Old Mill). We could have easily found things to do for another week.

Ray and Susan were wonderful and answered all our questions. They were on hand right next door but never invaded our privacy. They also gave us great recommendations for places to visit around town.

Overall, this was a wonderful trip and I would highly recommend this rental to anyone looking to get away from it all.

This cottage is a great place for 4 people (adults and/or children) to really relax and enjoy a great vacation. Our family has used this cottage on many different occassions over the last 50 years. The owners have done a great job in maintaining the "camp' atmosphere while updating with modern amenities where possible. Guaranteed you will want to be a repeat customer after enjoying the cottage!

The photographs don't do justice to this gorgeous cabin, full of retro furniture and period pieces, it feels like a step back in time. Beautifully clean and comfortable, with everything you need, including a decently kitted out kitchen unlike so many rentals. The covered deck has a splendid view and keeps the whole space mosquito free. The area is very peaceful. And I was amazed how warm the lake was! The cottage is part of a friendly lakeside community and Ray and Susan are on hand next door should anything go wrong.

My wife and I along with our two young grandchildren spent a wonderful week here. The kids got to swim and play. They also had their fun private room in the loft. The cabin is much roomier then the pictures show. It has an open floor plan which is further enhanced by a wrap around porch that attaches on two sides of the cabin. The beach is private and there was a canoe as well as a boat provided. There is also a dock that the kids enjoyed and my son got to fish from. Also the view is quite nice from the screened in porch.

Ray (owner) was quite nice. When I asked him what I should do if the grill runs out of gas, he said "No problem, just call me and I'll bring over another one and change it". I mean like WOW, how's that for being neighborly. If circumstances permit we shall book in 2015 for sure. Thank you Ray and Sue, it was quite a fun time for us.
