Summary: We stayed at the cottage for four nights. It was spotlessly clean and completely charming - exactly as pictured, only better. It’s hard to capture the throwback charm of the screened porch, and all the little touches that make it so authentic as a lakeside cottage. It is also very spacious and extremely well equipped. The dock was a great hangout spot, and the water was so clean and refreshing, the perfect temperature. We swam every day. Our communication with Ann was great. We highly recommend this cottage.

Summary: An out of the way cottage on a small lake in northwest Connecticut, this place is a retreat from hustle and a return to the simple life. The house is rustic with an outdoor shower and large fireplace, and a solid dock with chairs. A screened porch overlooks the lake from above. The house sleeps 10 with five private bedrooms and a bunkroom. There's a small well-equipped kitchen, and a collection of family games. No laundry, but a laundry line for wet bathing suits and towels. I thought we'd hike the surrounding woods, or canoe to a far shore. Cool rainy weather discouraged us, and the mosquitoes were ferocious on the trail. Apart from an excursion to the Mark Twain House in Hartford, we were content to hang out, read, play Taboo and swim in the lake. The week passed too quickly, everyone was sad to leave.

Summary: Absolutely loved our vacation. Lots of room to spread out for our group of 9. Plenty of beds and bedrooms for privacy. We enjoyed the outdoor shower too! Lake was great for our kayakers, canoers and fishermen in their float tubes and flippers. The guys caught sunfish, blue gills, pickerel, small mouth and large mouth bass. Even caught some off the dock. My 39 yr old son caught over 60 fish during the week... Largest was 18". Our ages ranged from 14 to 70 and all had a good time. Will definitely consider vacationing here again.

Summary: We gathered 8 family members here to celebrate my 70th birthday. This place was absolutely perfect. I was even greeted upon arrival with birthday balloons and a present of some maple syrup! We would wake up and sip our coffee on the screened in porch while gazing at the pond and listening to the birds. Then we spent the day hiking, canoeing, swimming, laughing, and catching up. We are fanatic snorkelers and bird watchers, and there was so much to see! There are several nice trails near the cottage and at least two state forests nearby - Tunxis and Granville. The pond had newts, turtles, fish, and waterlilies. Even in mid-June the water temperature was fine, and the bugs weren't at all bad. The cottage itself was very clean and comfortable and an easy drive from the Hartford Airport. There's a half bath at each end which made it easy to share with my daughter's in-laws, and even the few "city folk" with us enjoyed the novelty of the outdoor shower. I planned the menus before our stay and was happy to find the kitchen with the right equipment to make absolutely everything. Be sure to download Merlin for bird identification and Seek for plants before going and plan at least one trip to the fabulous Gran-Val Scoop for its homemade ice cream and petting zoo! I will be dreaming of this vacation for a long time.

Summary: A quiet week at a lakeside community in a well cared-for late-40s cabin. Hiked, swam, canoed and played board games. We all ate a lot of fresh corn. For the kind of family that likes the quiet life this is perfect. For arts lovers, it’s no more than 45 mins drive from Jacob’s Pillow dance festival.

Summary: Two parts of our vacation: the house and the lake/pond. The house provided everything you need for a comfortable stay. The lake/pond reminded us of the hazy, lazy days of summer - no motor boats, no jet skis, just swimming, paddle boards and canoes. Beautiful easy living away from "hectic" - feeding the hummingbirds and serenaded by birds and bull frogs.

Summary: I stayed with my father for seven nights, other family members came for short stays. I doubt that there are many lodging places as quiet and peaceful. We fished a bit every day by kayak (no motors-even electric) and caught largemouth and smallmouth bass, yellow perch, blue gills, and pickerel. None of the bass were of significant size. The cottage, the lake, and day trips to the Riverton and Colebrook general stores were like a trip back in time that you only see in old movies and TV shows. Highly recommend if you don't mind things a bit rustic, like an outdoor (private) shower. Most mornings were a bit chilly in the mid-40s so we lit the fireplace to chase off the cold. We're grateful to the owners for sharing their family cottage.

Summary: We had such a nice time at Ann and Bill's place on Hartland Pond! The house and lake were exactly as described and it was so great to just relax and enjoy our time there. The lake is peaceful and quiet and exactly what we had hoped for. Ann and Bill were easy to work with, especially as our week began with Hurricane Ida! Their flexibility in letting us arrive after the storm had passed and refunding the days we lost to the storm were much appreciated.
