Casinha na Big Woods

The Little House in the Big Woods was just perfect for our weekend getaway. We needed to spend some time with our teenage son away from all distractions. The house takes you back in time and it was comfortable and clean! We enjoyed sitting on the beautiful deck overlooking the property, pond and woods. Our son fished in the pond and we hiked around the property and the woods. Eliza was a wonderful host and attentive to our needs. We wish we had more time to spend at the house and in Pomfret. We would definitely recommend this home.

Very enjoyable, comfortable little house! Eliza, our super host, was fantastic. She had our refrigerator stocked as well as many other necessities one may need. (Wifi and Roku too!)

The cottage is like an early american Sturbridge village home but with an updated kitchen and bathroom

From the large deck we enjoyed the views of the pond and woods and walked on the paths around the property. Eliza's house is next door but the way everything is situated it still felt secluded,peaceful and private.

We would definitely go back to the little house in the woods!

Best part - driveway that transforms you to another time and place. Cottage was cozy, comfortable, quiet and convenient to everything in the area. Everything we hoped for and more! Thank you, Eliza, for sharing your quiet quaint, corner of CT with us!

We had a wonderful time in Pomfret at 'The Little House". We hiked to the Wolf's Den, went antiquing in Putnam, visited a gorgeous chapel at The Pomfret School, attended a wonderful festival at Roseland and ended our stay with a magical evening at The Golden Lamb Buttery.

I would recommend a visit to "the quiet corner" any time of year!

We loved spending time at the cottage, which dates from the 18th century (I think), and has been in the owner's family for many generations. The back deck overlooks woods, a pond, and lawns with old fruit trees. Inside, the cottage is like a very elegant house in miniature -- and with real antiques. We stayed only for a long weekend, but the quiet of the place rejuvenated us and made us feel we had really been "away." Also, we really enjoyed the private tennis court, set amid trees and grass.
