A fantastic lakeside home from home

The title says it all really. The house is as well equipped as your home, superbly comfortable, has glorious views East over the lake, has space for everyone and was just a delight to stay in. Lisa is so repsonsive, thoughtful and kind, which just adds to the warmth of feeling and quality of experience. Thank you very much indeed.

Great Lake House

Great house! The house is fully stocked with everything which was nice. It had a lot of great areas to sit and relax inside and out. There are a decent amount of steps to the water which was fine for us. The host was very accommodating and responsive. I would recommend this house.we had a great time!

Tranquility at its BEST!

What a relaxful fun week we had staying at this home.You literally need to bring NOTHING for your stay except your bathing suit.Lisa the host I communicated with all the time was very helpful,polite and would respond ASAP to all my annoying emails loaded with questions.The house was very clean and the location was perfect.The lake was SO clean and refreshing and the view from the master bedroom was breathtaking..I never closed the binds!!.the lake was amazing..we are water people and we just jumped off the dock and floated on the many blow ups they provided. In addition,we rented a pontoon for 4 full days..that was the best.We took many family rides on it along with swimmimg off of the boat and playing music. We did have a few days of not so nice weather but the family games we played inside compinsated for the weather. The host supplied SO many games which was great.Beautiful big kitchen and the island was our meeting place when we got hangry..LOL The walk down to the dock was very safe with a rope railing and very well done pavers. I will say, it is a hike from the house to the dock so be careful of your elderly guests that you bring.The hottub was used everyday, especially by my husband who had a bad case of siatica recently.The outside deck had enough seating for at least 20 guests...SO much room to relax and enjoy..The view was spectacular especially in the early mornings. I would say this was one of my most memorable vacations. I will never rent on another lake again!

Gorgeous Lake View

We had a phenomenal time at this property. The view of the lake from the deck (and hot tub) was awesome both during the day and at night. The house is set up with so many activities and different places to sit, relax, and enjoy the setting. Everything is set up well to make the stay a positive experience for guests.

Delightful House

This house and property are well appointed and very nice in all respects! The family room with the large, glazed overhead door is a great space (we had the door open during the day, and then closed it in the evening for dinner.) The deck overlooking Candlewood Lake has several nice seating areas, hot tub and fire pit. Down at the lake, there is another nice seating area (along with the dock and boat shed.) Everything was labeled with clear instructions for use (fireplace dampers, hot tub, PlayStation, TVs, fire pit, grill, light switches … everything.) It’s also very close to Costco and other shopping in Danbury. I hope to return soon.

Fabulous!

Our second stay at this wonderful home on Candlewood Lake. Even better than the first. It truly felt like coming home! We spent the week with our family (including our 9 month old grandson) and a few friends. House was plenty big for the 8 of us. Kitchen, deck, great room…all fabulous. Enjoyed time on the lake, around the fire pit, in the hot tub and in the house. Lisa was so responsive to us whenever we had a question about the house or the lake. Made great memories! Would highly recommend!

The property was fantastic. We had family staying at another house on the lake and they chose to come to this house every night due to the wonderful views, outdoor setup and shaded area by the lake. The home is great for outdoor entertaining with abundant spaces.

Perfect Girls Getaway

We had a wonderful girls getaway at this lovely house! So many positives to write about. First, the house is truly immaculate, every corner and crevice is spotless-- even the fireplace was swept of ashes. I'd like to hire whoever is responsible for such a clean home. Second, the attention to detail. They left a lovely birthday basket of treats for me that we thoroughly enjoyed! They have all the necessities from beach towels to cooking basics like oils and spices. Even put out individually wrapped soaps and had the showers stocked with shampoo, conditioner and body wash in lovely labeled bottles. Third, the amenities. We had a hard time tearing ourselves out of the hot tub and the lovely view. My friends even used the kayaks (yes, in January!) and though we didn't use the outdoor firepit, the indoor fireplace kept us cozy. We even canceled some plans to go out just to be able to enjoy the house a little more. The beds are very comfortable, though note that one of the rooms is really meant for kids and is pretty small. Owners were prompt to respond to a few questions we had and were very available to use before and during the booking. We had such a wonderful time and I can't wait to find a reason to come back again. Thank you!!

Exceptional views from the well appointed deck. The house was cozy, well equipped.

The house was really well equipped and was perfect for gatherings. We utilized all the spaces from the breakfast nook to the warm living room with the fireplace. My only suggestion would be to emphasize just how many steps and how steep they are. Our 82 and 84 year old family members could not possibly get down to the dock - or at least not back up. Other than that, we had an amazing time and but for the stairs we would absolutely go back again.

We enjoyed a wonderful week of rest and relaxation by the lake. The views are wonderful and the house is well appointed. Much time was spent in the hot tub and on the kayaks. Lots to do in the area and we even managed a day trip to NYC. Communication with the property manager was great and the welcome binder is filled with restaurant recommendations.
