Considering that area does not have convenient hotels, this location was perfect for the event we attended. It was nice of them to vacate their home so we could stay - though we wish that would have been communicated. There is no extra room with twin beds - at least not functional. The property is nice. Whomever took the pictures did a great job. It worked for us for the short time we were in the area.

Perfect Stay: Immaculate Home with Excellent Entertainment
We had a fantastic stay at this VRBO property! The home was not only clean and well-maintained, but also incredibly entertaining with its thoughtful amenities. The space was perfect for our needs, and we enjoyed every moment spent there. The owner was exceptionally easy to reach, responsive to all our inquiries and very accommodating. Their attentiveness made our stay even more enjoyable. Highly recommend this property for anyone looking for a great place to stay! We will definitely be back!

Unfortunate circumstances
We chose this property because we knew my grandkids would spend most of their time in the pool. Unfortunately, the water in the pool was super cloudy when we arrived. The host told us it was perfectly fine because the dipstick he used to test the water said that all of the chemicals were in the proper ranges. He also assured us that it would clear up overtime. By the end of our four-day stay, it was still hard to see your feet in the shallow end. The little kids' room was also not up to the standard of the rest of the place. The grandkids ended up sleeping with their parents in the adult rooms. rooms.

Amenities Galore in Connecticut Countryside
Everything about this home is designed for comfort, convenience, and family fun. Literally everything that you need for a restful and fun getaway, from comfy beds with linens and towels provided, to chef's kitchen with stocked pantry and top of the line appliances, to game room with ping pong, pool table, foosball, electric piano, and gym, to the giant flat screen TV with Sonos sound and tons of viewing options and lounger chairs. Set back 400 feet off a country road, the grounds were lovely and butterflies our frequent companions. Brian the host was very responsive; when we asked if the home had a high chair, he went out and bought one. For three famiies with small children, parents, and grandparents, the space was flexible and roomy and the large dining room table seated all nine of us. One of the bedrooms is in a different wing from the other bedrooms which enabled the grandparents a little bit more privacy which was very much appreciated. All in all, we had a wonderful stay and would highly recommend.

Large Family celebration
We had a great stay at the home. The pool and spa were amazing - but with the home being very tech-savy, it would have been helpful if there were some more detailed instructions on how to use all the home devices in the house manual, as the owners were not always readily available on the phone. But overall it was a great time for all of us!

Nuclear family reunion
Our family of 10 had a great time in Brian's beautiful home. Loved the pool, hot tub, and sauna. Dining room table is spectacular—in size, graciousness, and view of the pool. Updated living room is lovely. Everyone enjoyed the reclining chairs in the TV room. Beds were comfortable.
Only issue for me was that kitchen cupboards were overcrowded. Not enough space to access pots, trays, etc. easily.

Great Relaxing property with many amenities
Loved the outdoor setting, with large pool, hottub, fire pit and beautiful scenery. Kitchen was well stocked, including a pantry. The bedrooms were very comfortable and nicely furnished. The owner was very responsive and helped get us settled, checked in to make sure the pool was taken care of. We had a great week.

Good for family reunion
Many aspects of this house worked well for our small family reunion. The pool was a great place to play and cool off, the games room offered hours of entertainment, and the kitchen, dining, and movie areas accommodated us well. The main bedrooms were well appointed and comfortable, and one of our group slept on the sofa in the living room and found it comfy.
There are a few aspects of this house that are not clear from the pictures, so I want to help future guests translate what they are seeing. One bedroom is over the games room. It has the chair lift going up the stairs in the photos. This room has no door so you can hear all the noise in the kitchen and dining room (so bring ear plugs). The kids room is listed as 3 beds, but there are 4 mattresses on the floor.
As an update to the posting and previous reviews--the horses are now off-site. The owners were gracious and happy to arrange a visit and pony rides.
The reason this is 4 stars instead of 5 is the kids room, which is an alcove off one bedroom (so the kids must go through that person's bedroom). The owners have assured me they are going to do a deep cleaning based on the condition we found it in. Be aware that the ceiling is very steep, there's limited electricity (overhead lights do not work, one floor lamp and only one power strip for plugging in anything), and it does have openings to the unfinished attic space.

Family 50th wedding anniversary gathering
Brian and Mel were very accommodating Pool was great and home had everything you needed. 4 Bedrooms were great. The bedroom listed for kids really wasn’t something to use for young children. Really just an additional space off a bedroom The horses were not on property anymore but Mel had us over to their home for horse rides We had 6 adults and 4 children under 4 years old and there was plenty of space Beautiful area

Mostly good
The grounds were beautiful. The horses were wonderful. The house could have been cleaned more thoroughly. There was ongoing construction work - we had been warned about that. There was a leak in the master bath shower - the owner offered to have it fixed while we were there. In the middle of 1 night, an alarm went off, seemingly from a decorative small waterfall device. We could not figure out how to turn it off. We called and messaged the owner, who did not respond. It stopped after we had been up for about an hour. The next day, the owner was unapologetic. In communications after our stay, I suggested that the owner give us a partial refund - he did not respond.

Great weekend escape
Great place to get a way for a long weekend, but beware, renters are responsible for caring for the horses on the property. also the lobster/steak dinner was not prepared as advertised and the boat option was not available due to COVID. All in all, a great stay but these are a few things I think other renters may want to be aware of.

Plan to be back!
My friends and I rented this home for a girls’ weekend. Couldn’t have picked a better house for what we needed and wanted. The home is clean, spacious, and well supplied. The property is gorgeous. There is multiple seating areas for big groups of people both indoors and outdoors. The hosts were so welcoming and easy to work with. Brian and Marielis made us a delicious dinner (for booking a 3 night stay). The horses on the property were an extra fun addition. We plan to be back again soon! Highly recommend.

Perfect for a girls trip!
We spent the weekend at Brian's property for my sister's bachelorette trip and it was perfect! The house was spacious with a ton of places to sleep, and the surround sound within the house and around the pool was amazing! There are also beautiful wineries around the area so if you are looking for a weekend getaway, look no further! Also, the horses are so cute :)

Privacy & Relaxation
We had a great time relaxing at this property. It has many great amenities as listed---pool, hot tub, game room, surround sound music, movie theater-type media room, etc. There were a few days of stormy weather, so it was nice to have space and activities inside the house for both kids and adults to enjoy.
Brian and Mariella prepared a lovely dinner for us upon arrival and showed us around the house. They live in the home, so there were a few quirks here and there in terms of getting things to work / how they work. Also, we moved a lot of their decorations (a lot of beautiful glass) out of the way for fear that the kids may accidentally break something. We fed Mariella's horses and let them out to graze daily, which the kids (and adults) really enjoyed!
Initial communication was non-existent as none of my emails with questions were answered, which was a bit of a challenge from a planning perspective. However, upon arrival, the Winthrop's were very helpful and welcoming.
All in all we really enjoyed our stay and would return. Thank you Brian and Mariella!
