Family reunion
This place is amazing!! The house had everything we needed and more. We really enjoyed our stay and also be able to host some of our family in the area was precious. My daughters rented equipment for the babies which worked out well. The house is very spacious and 5 adults and 3 children fit nicely. Very highly recommend. The pier was fun to hang out on but due to weather we were to enjoy the lake as much. Easy to find, and owners were very responsive.

Amazing week on the lake
A perfect time at a home that was exactly as advertised - new, clean, well-stocked, and very comfortable.
The best feedback is that we told the owners that we arrived….they texted back right away to call if we had any issues…..and our next text was to thank them for a perfect week….we never needed to ask them anything, it was that easy!
Perfect internet/wifi….all supplies easily accessible…all appliances worked flawlessly

Fabulous!
Our family vacation was the most memorable, easy, enjoyable, stress-free and fun yet!
This vacation rental and experience was fabulous. We’ve been renting water front homes yearly for at least 6 years in Candlewood Lake.
John and Lisa are extremely welcoming, professional, attentive, responsive, and thoughtful. Every detail has been thought off and all that we needed was on hand. The Welcome basket was such a nice touch, and surprise; it was filled with delicious treats and a wine bottle.
The home is completely renovated and has a great floor plan. My husband and I stayed in the bedroom downstairs, with a renovated bathroom, sitting area, kitchen, and access to the patio and lake. Our adult children stayed with their partners and friends upstairs which also had a renovated bathroom, living room and table. The photos on VRBO of the bedrooms don’t reflect all new furniture and beautiful interior design of the home and rooms. Both living rooms had large flat screen new smart TV and breathtaking lake views. The house has a new laundry room on the main floor which was a real plus. The outdoor patio is incredible for dining, reading and entertaining. The outdoor space is the best with kayaks, paddle boards and a dock big enough to sunbathe, swim and dock a pontoon boat. The flat yard was a real plus for us. We’ve been renting homes with steep stairs and yards.
We have booked this home for July 2025, already and plan to make it our new family nearby summer spot! LOVE it!

Excellent Spot!
We had an outstanding family vacation at this home. I am from the area and enjoyed bringing my family from AZ to enjoy the CT beauty. The house was very clean and well stocked. We have stayed at many vacation homes and this one had everything you could need! They provided paper products, water, games, puzzels, outdoor toys, paddle boards, kayaks, etc.
My kids had so much fun swimming off the dock and we had the peace of mind that the life vests were provided. The patio was perfect for family gatherings and relaxing afternoons.
The house was in a quiet, well-maintained neighborhood. The inside was beautifully updated and very comfortable. The views of the lake were outstanding.
The property manager and owner were very resonsive to questions and addressed any concerns.
We plan to return again!
