Awesome stay at the cottage! We thoroughly enjoyed Lake Waramaug and everything it has to offer. The house was fantastic. We grew up in CT and this style of house is very nostalgic. The only thing I would say to others looking to stay here is that it is NOT friendly to those with any mobility problems. I’m not taking away from the property, just an objective comment. Definitely recommend!

Exactly What We Needed
We were in need of a nice, relaxing vacation and that’s exactly what we got. There were four of us (me, my husband, my 16-year-old, and my 11-year-old) and we each had our own space. We loved going down to the dock, and there is also a town beach just down the road. The home is filled with fun antiques and reminds you of a clean, well-kept, and charming grandmother’s house. We wanted a low-key vacation, and so we enjoyed short jaunts (less than 15 mins away) to Kent to enjoy its downtown and waterfall and bookstore and to Washington Depot (the inspiration for Gilmore Girls, which also had its own lovely bookstore). Overall, we highly recommend this home to other families needing quiet and downtime.

I wanted to stay here forever!
It was difficult to leave this amazing place! The cottage had so much personality, and there was such an incredible view of the beautiful lake from the house, the porch and the patio. The area was enchanting, and we spent every day hiking and taking in new, beautiful sights. We wished there had been more time to explore! Danielle and Eduardo were great!!

Awful
Filthy. Beds/chairs/stairs/kitchen table falling apart. Hair and stains on mattresses and pillows. The bed I slept on in back room if you turned on it even slightly it wobbled like it was going to collapse. Rodents in wall. Caretaker told me it was squirrels on the roof but the sounds were from the walls. When I told him it wasn't the ceiling and was from the walls he stopped replying. Rat traps outside mouse traps and ultrasonic pest repellers in every room indicate they know there is an issue. My wife's parents left after the first night. Only it was my wife's birthday we would have gone home as well. I expected it to be rough around the edges as its a cabin but the place is falling apart. The amount I paid I feel absolutely robbed blind. Never again.

Magical Cottage w/ Plenty to Enjoy
This cottage is charming but has all the amenities and space to really enjoy some time "away". We traveled with our family and there were plenty of beds / bedrooms / bathrooms, the kitchen had everything to make and enjoy full-size meals, and the living spaces were cozy / comfortable. The location is very unique and the views are amazing. Communication w/ the owner was quick and helpful.
PS. No need to bring your favorite book, there are plenty of fascinating reads available throughout the cottage!

Charming Lake Cabin
We had a wonderful week. The house is charming, clean and COVID safe. The kitchen is well outfitted, with updated appliances. The kitchen seating is a little tight for more than 4 people. In the nicer weather there is lovely outdoor seating by the fire pit. The area has beautiful hiking, and lovely restaurants with outdoor heated socially distanced dining. The lake is lovely and the dock is perfect for sitting and enjoying the stars at night. It’s a perfect throwback cabin with a beautiful screened in porch with a local caretaker who is responsive and helpful.

Other than a noise complaint from the neighbor at 11:30pm our first night, our stay was exactly what the doctor ordered. The home is on the older side so expect a “rustic” feel. Eduardo was very helpful and the homeowner seems very understanding when the neighbor submits a complaint. All in all, it was a quiet comfortable stay.

Other than the ceiling leaking and the nasty-gram from the neighbor ...
I’d first like to say that the house was lovely. And the caretaker and Waldo did everything possible to salvage what otherwise would have been a very difficult situation.
When we arrived, we found three workmen in the master bedroom having sawed a hole in the ceiling above the bed. Apparently there had been a leak and, unable to get a plumber in time, Eduardo had a undertaken opening the ceiling to try to find the problem and fixing it with plumbers putty. I was a bit concerned because we had wanted to drop off our things and our dog and go for a hike. But there were buckets of plaster and water and dusty muddy footprints all over the floor and it was clear that they had not really finished their work.
Eduardo told us to return in a half an hour so we went to town and sort of loitered and came back in a half an hour at which point he said he needed another 45 minutes.
Unfortunately most of our first day was spent loitering around not being able to enjoy the day and wondering if they were going to get it fixed. There was no other bed in the house that wasn’t a twin so we were really hoping they could get the master bedroom in order but the leak was right over the bed.
If we had known it was going to take so long we would’ve gone off and fully enjoyed our day but we kept checking back thinking that it was about to be done and that we could finally drop off our dog and go do our thing . So our whole first day was wasted as we sort of loitered around.
When the gang finally vacated the house they tried to clean up after themselves, I cringed as I saw them squirting Windex on the wood floors and mopping up. If I was a homeowner I would’ve been very upset.
The workers left a straight edge razor blade on the floor which fortunately we saw before anyone stepped on it and they patched the ceiling.
But a few hours later it started to leak again. So far this romantic weekend wasn’t going so well.
The guys came back to the house and we vacated once again so that they could open the ceiling and re-putty.
But sleeping under that patched area was a bit stressful not knowing when water was going to start falling on the bed again.
Our second day was better. The putty held and there was no further leaking. But we woke up to a very nasty note on our car from the neighbors threatening to tow our car! There’s is a shared carpad and every time we came home they had moved the garbage pail’s into the middle of it!

Tranquil getaway
Loved our stay here! The location is a bit remote (spotty cell service) but truthfully that was just what we needed.
Great hiking trails nearby and lots to do around the lake.
The house is definitely quirky and would not be accessible for anyone with limited mobility. Kitchen has plenty of pots and pans for cooking but lacks any cooking non-perishables, like salt and oil, so keep that in mind if you’d like to do any cooking.
We’ll definitely be back!

Great peaceful location. We loved swimming in the lake and admired picturesque scenery. Eduardo (house manager) was wonderful and extremely helpful. The property is pet friendly but not a lot of space for a dog to run and play with ball. We brought our inflatable boat which was great. the lake is not crowded with boats. Thank you.

Beautiful lake house
We had an amazing weekend! Got sooo lucky with this house, can’t even believe it was available a week before July 4th. The house looks old, like historic-not in a bad way. But it’s very clean and well taking care of. We felt like staying at gramma’s house. Beautiful view, easy access to the lake and dock, which was perfect for swimming or kayaking or whatever, there are two chairs and umbrella. It might be hard for some people to go up and down those stairs to get to the lake, but we had no problem. We enjoyed our stay very much. Hopefully we can bring our boat next time and stay here again. Great time! Thank you very much!
