About this property

Beautiful brook-side log cabin on 3 private acres - 2 bed, 1.5 bath, entire home

Fall asleep to the sound of the rushing brook in this beautifully restored, 2 bedroom, 1.5 bath log home. The cabin sits in the middle of three wooded acres overlooking Catlin Brook as it cascades through the gorge below. It seems like wilderness, yet all the amenities of Harwinton are just a few minutes away. The recently remodeled cabin includes a fully stocked kitchen with quartz countertops, laundry room with gas dryer, forced-air heating and AC, an office space with a guest computer and high-speed internet, super comfy Italian leather couch with a Roku TV, and even a Yamaha piano.

We shared this cozy cabin with another couple for two nights while attending a local event,and the location was perfect for our needs. There is a lot to like about this home, but the most outstanding feature is the fact that it feels like an oasis in the wilderness when in fact, "civilization" is practically at your doorstep and just one turn off the main road so there are plenty of dining minutes away. Also notable, is the fact that this quaint cabin has been updated with modern technology for streaming TV, wifi and electrical outlets that did not blow a fuse when I plugged in my hair dryer! Beds were very comfortable and the porch was lovely. In short, a perfect combination of rustic and modern. I highly recommend it for a short or long stay.

If I could leave more than five stars I would! The house is charming and very relaxing - listening to the brook was the best. The care taken to make sure we had everything we would need was evident. Lastly, the house is SPOTLESS!Thank you for a wonderful girls weekend!
