NEW Listing: LAKEFRONT Home w/ Dock, Theater Room, Firepit. Near Mystic, Casinos
Escape to our rustic lakefront home in Griswold, CT. Our home is on an oversized lot giving you plenty of privacy and space to enjoy the waterfront. Enjoy the beautiful views (the sunsets are particularly spectacular) from multiple outdoor seating areas, the dock, or the 2 firepits. There is also a balcony off of the large king size bedroom. This home rental includes the use of the kayak at no charge.
The house is direct waterfront on Ashland Lake, a ponded section of the Pachaug River in Griswold, CT. You can fish, swim, kayak, canoe, and more in the extremely picturesque waters right off the grassy backyard of our cottage home. Use our kayak or bring your own if you prefer - you can boat right from our personal dock in the backyard.
Although you will want to spend as much time as possible enjoying the water and the views we have gone the extra mile to make all aspects of our waterfront house feel like home.
Inside you will find a game room that is perfect for all ages and a home theater room with a large projector screen. The game room also includes a new bunk bed and a Pac-Man arcade game. The main floor of the lake house includes the living room with a tv and plenty of seating, fully stocked kitchen, full bathroom, a queen sized bedroom, and a king size bedroom which has it's own sitting area, desk, and balcony that overlooks the water. Pets are also welcome with a paid pet fee.
Important: Sheets and towels ARE included with your stay. They are washed before and after every guest, feel free to use the laundry room during your stay as needed as well. We also provide a starter pack of paper towels, toilet paper, toiletries, cleaning products, soaps, detergent, sponges, k cups, nespresso pods, and tea!

Why they chose this property
The first time we visited this lake house we knew it was the perfect vacation home for our family. When we drove up to the house we parked and immediately walked to the patio to take in the view. In that moment I knew I was home. Soaking up the crisp autumn New England air I closed my eyes and listened to the sounds around me - our small children running through the large backyard, the ducks calling out, and finally the sound of the water lapping up against the dock. These are the sights and sounds that memories are made of - and that photos and videos just cannot capture completely. The is no doubt about it, this is the perfect lakefront cottage for our family. We take immense pride in our lake home and are thrilled to be able to host guests who will hopefully love it just as much as we do.
