Ask a questionAbout Ann LaCroix or Bill Closs
Our family spent our summers here and Pinehurst Lake hasn't changed much. This is our home for part of the year, and isn't your typical income-rental property. We ask that you treat it as carefully as you would your own home. We pride ourselves on keeping the house and property well-maintained. We will be updating the interior over the next few years adding an indoor shower, washer & dryer and remodeling the kitchen. The Hartland Pond Association (HPC) was formed in 1929, and most cottages were completed in the 1940's. A thirty-five homes limit was set and still applies. The HPC owns 600 acres around the lake. The State of Connecticut acquired land around the lake and established a State Forest & Water District Property that will never be developed. Pinehurst lake is a slice of history tucked away in a heavily forested part of Connecticut that hasn't changed in seventy years.
Why Ann LaCroix or Bill Closs chose Hartland
We welcome you to our family legacy summer cottage. We hope you'll enjoy your time here while relaxing in nature with your family and friends. And yes it is rustic! For your hiking pleasure there are well-marked walking trails around the lake and up into water district property. The Hartland Pond Association (HPC) manages the Pinehurst Lake Community and keeps close tabs on rental guests. EXCESSIVE NOISE IS A PROBLEM for this very quiet HPC community. If you are looking for a place to party with a large group, listen to loud music, please do not apply. This is a low key nature retreat to unplug from the stress and noise of the hectic world.
What makes this Cottage unique
Quiet, rustic environment (have we said it enough, lol) We and our neighbors value this exceptionally peaceful and quiet environment. We look for and rent to like minded guests. DO NOT APPLY to rent our cottage unless you plan on spending quiet time with your friends and family. Please keep your conversations and music at lower volumes. Sound carries clearly over the water in the lake basin. While it is important to respect our neighbors desire for peace and quiet we want our guests and children to have fun and enjoy the lake!
