Summary
Welcome to Grammyâs Lake House â a beloved 3-bedroom, 2.5-bath home sitting on nearly an acre with private dock access to the shimmering waters of Lake Pocotopaug. This isnât just a vacation rental â itâs a place built on family traditions, warm hospitality, and memories passed down through generations. As Grammyâs grandson, Iâm honored to share her home with guests who want the same joy and connection weâve felt here for decades.
From the moment you arrive, the lake comes into view and life slows down. Mornings start with coffee in one of the three rocking chairs on the covered front porch, where the sun dances on the water. Afternoons are for jumping off the brand-new dock, fishing, or paddling across the lake. Evenings bring everyone together for a BBQ on the massive back deck or a game night in the cozy living room. Here, thereâs room to spread out, unwind, and feel at home.
Why Youâll Love It Here:
Grammyâs Lake House has a soul â the kind of place where time slows down, laughter lingers, and the view from the porch stays in your mind long after you leave. Whether itâs the morning mist over Lake Pocotopaug, the splash of kids jumping off the dock, or the golden glow of a sunset BBQ, youâll leave here with more than just a vacation â youâll leave with memories.
The Space Inside, youâll find:
- Three comfortable bedrooms, each with a queen bed, desk, and Wi-Fi so you can stay connected without losing the view.
