This property was perfect after long days on track at Lime Rock Park. Only 10 minutes away from the track with room for 2 couples and a single. The view is spectacular all day long but sunsets are the best. The house was clean, well stocked and we had no issues. Communication with the host was clear and concise. Use of the garage was an added bonus. I highly recommend and hope to be back next May.

What a wonderful place to stay!! House was comfortable, clean, and spacious - exactly as the pictures show. Karen and Larry were very attentive (especially re: the snow that came and making sure it was cleared off the drive and decks) and left a goodie basket in the kitchen.The view is fantastic and we lucked out weather-wise despite the forecasts and got some lovely night shots of the stars. Overall, one of the best VRBOs I have stayed in.

We are frequent fliers at this property, as it’s our home away from home when we compete @ Limerock Park Raceway several times a year. We couldn’t believe our great fortune to find this spacious and well appointed property, with wonderful, attentive hosts that make our time in the area a dream. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend the place to anyone spending time in this beautiful part of western CT.

Incredible views! Hosts are very responsive. Would definitely recommend! If you have low car, be careful on the long driveway. There are one or two spots you'll want to take at an angle so you don't bottom out.
