This was our 4th time at this lake house. This place has become a haven of summer memories over the past 4 years for my family. The house itself is adequate and quaint. There is plenty of room for a family of four. It could use some updating, but we do not rent this property for a luxury home. The highlight of this property is the outdoors. The land is amazing. Because of the lot size it is extremely private for a lake front home as well. The gradual walk in area of the lake is sandy and we always spend a good amount of time on the kayaks and swim platform which is about 30 feet out. We cook smores ever evening at the fire pit, and we love that our dogs can come stay as well which makes this home even more special to us. The owners are very friendly and easy to work with, and I highly recommend this property if you are looking for family fun in an outdoor, serene place.

An absolute hidden gem. If you are looking for serene and private you will not be disappointed. If you are looking for an excellent layout, perhaps for an elderly family member with everything on one floor, you wont be disappointed. So many activities to enjoy on the property. We took the kayaks out!

Absolutely perfect!!!

This is our second time booking at this property and once again, it was nothing short of amazing. Everything between the communication with the owner, the property itself, and the ease of everything was just wonderful!!! Katrina is such a nice and easy-going host, she really made us feel welcomed!!! And the property itself? Words just cannot even describe it. You have to see it for yourself. It’s exactly as it’s described !!! The view of the lake is out of this world and the privacy is just what we were looking for. The fact that we are able to bring our dog is a huge bonus. We caught plenty of fish, grilled some great food, and any time we needed groceries it was an 11 minute drive to the Market Basket! There are also some restaurants and fast food places close by but we barely left the house because we just don’t want to miss out on those views !!! As a side note, our baby ended up having a double ear infection and we took him to an urgent care located 15 minutes away and we had an amazing and quick experience and the CVS was right next door for his antibiotics!! Huge relief for us!! The master bedroom is ginormous with a king size bed and a half bath which made it very convenient for us with our 15 month old baby! We will definitely be booking again this for sure has become our yearly vacation spot !!! Thank you again Katrina!!!!

lakeside retreat

We had an incredible stay at this beautiful lakeside retreat. The property is exactly what we were hoping for—private, peaceful, and surrounded by nature. Tucked away from the hustle and bustle, it offered the perfect escape for some much-needed relaxation. Morning coffee on the porch enjoying the view was a daily highlight. The setting is serene, with plenty of space to unwind. We especially appreciated how secluded it felt—no crowds and the calm of the water.Highly recommend this spot for couples or anyone looking to recharge in a quiet, private setting. We’re already dreaming about our next visit.

"Xanadu on the Lake"

What a wonderful property! The lake is great for swimming and fishing. and Katrina provides lots of toys and of course life jackets. The house was so comfortable and the kitchen had everything we needed. Loved the hot water, comfortable sofas, sky lights, deck off of the main bedroom, row boat, two docks, sandy access into water, outside seating, the list goes on and on. Katrina's daughter Linda was the best host! So sweet, friendly, and helpful. We will definitely be returning to this heaven on the lake.
