Your Private Lakeside Hideaway, Just a Short Climb Away
This 2-bedroom, 1-bath retreat checks every box on your lake house wish list: a cozy brick fireplace, pristine water views, and the kind of quiet that resets your whole week.
Access note: The property is reached by a long set of stairs down to the water. It's what keeps this spot so private and peaceful, and the views along the way are a preview of what's waiting. Pack light or bring a small cart. Not ideal for guests with mobility limitations.
Once settled, paddle across glassy water in the morning or cast a line for early fishing. In autumn, nearby trails glow with brilliant foliage. Evenings are made for the fireplace.
Ski mountains, breweries, apple orchards, and scenic hikes are all minutes away, making this the quintessential New England getaway.
