This was our second stay, and it was just as great as our first. Kyle is a great host - helpful and quick to respond to any questions. The cottage is great for a couple or a family. Highly recommend!
This is a nice, well put together property with everything you need It deserves every great review it receives. We were there over a weekend a Nor’easter pummeled the east coast with rain, so we spent many hours playing games and hanging out in the house. It worked well for that. Beds are super comfortable, so we all got to catch up some much needed sleep:-).
This is a fantastic place to get away, relax and enjoy all the amenities. There is a sauna, gas fireplace and the table on the deck has a gas fire table. We are already planning our next trip to this area and hope we can stay here again!The location is close to one of the best breweries in the country - Tree House Brewery.
Nice getaway cottage for the weekend. For extended stay I would have wanted access to washer/dryer. Host was great.

Thank you so much for the kind review, Karrie. You were a great guest and we'd love to have you back any time. (Also, we do have a washer/dryer that is available upon request!)
Quiet safe neighborhood. Very responsive host. Place seemed very clean. Great coffee set up. Nice location to ponder/lake. No problems with the WiFi. Tv was chrome cast-able/can use your own YouTube TV from phone. Master bedroom was a little tight to move around in. I’d stay aging.
A friend and I met for a relaxing reading weekend, the fireplace was so cozy, and the beds very comfortable. The sauna was such a great plus for a reading/relaxing/wellness weekend! We will definitely be returning.
My wife Ali and I have roamed the country, having lived in New Mexico, California, and now New England. We're big into hiking, cooking, and parenting our two wonderful children. We love hosting others, as well as traveling and exploring new places ourselves.
Why they chose this property
Lake Hamilton is such a serene and beautiful location and we've been in love with it from day one. It's an idyllic spot no matter the time of year.
