Riverfront Paradise with Stylish Cottage
Stylish, newly renovated 900 sq. ft. one-room cottage overlooking pond and Housatonic River in scenic fly fishing estate. Sleeps three (1 queen bed and pull out sofa for 1) with 1 bath (shower only). Has a Kitchenette (Mini-Fridge, mini-sink, Microwave, coffee maker, paninni maker, dedicated weber outdoor gas grill), nice front porch, sun room, WIFI, large screen TV, fire place, fire pit, bocce court. Fishing on 800 ft. of riverfront on famous "Doctor's Hole" (one of the best fishing holes on the river) with fly fishing lessons and guide services available from the host, who has fished the Housatonic for over 30 years. We live on the property in the main house and the Cottage is very private and secluded. The cottage is a 900 sq. ft. one-room, one bath cabin with a front porch and a sun room. It was recently gut renovated so is in like-new condition. The bathroom has a shower (no tub). The property is very private, with 5 acres at the end of Kirk Road, with sweeping views of the river and the surrounding river valley. The cottage has beautiful views overlooking the pond and the river. The front porch is a great spot to enjoy your morning coffee. Aside from fishing, there are opportunities for kayaking, rafting, biking and hiking and there are many local cultural and other attractions along with many good local restaurants.

Thanks for the nice review. You left the place in spotless condition! We enjoyed having you and hope you come back next year.
Relaxing stay at the cottage with beautiful views of the river and pond. We enjoyed sitting on the porch, listening to the sounds of nature and taking in the natural beauty of the surroundings. The host were attentive yet respectful of our privacy. We look forward to coming back and making this our annual nature retreat.

We feel lucky to live on such a beautiful and private property and enjoy sharing it with the guests who rent our Cottage. Everyone has been very nice and kept the Cottage in great condition.
Why they chose this property
We are directly on the river (on famous Doctor's Hole) in a beautiful river valley. The Cottage is very private and overlooks a pond and the river.
What makes this property unique
Our property is unique in its natural beauty and seclusion. You can't see any sign of civilization; just nature. We enjoy fabulous fishing being in the "blue ribbon" Trout Management Area and enjoy watching the heron, osprey and eagles fish as well.
