Fab venue for friends reunion

This home could not have been more ideal for six women "of a certain age" to celebrate 20 years of friendship. We each had our own bedroom and the gathering spaces, spacious, well-stocked kitchen and beautiful dining room were perfect. The hosts were very response and there were detailed instructions about everything we needed to know. We unanimously give this home 5 stars.

Connecticut family gathering

Lovely big “farm house” with amazing equipped gourmet kitchen, fabulous ‘great’ room, antique furnishings with modern amenities. I have never rented a better equipped place: paper towels, napkins enough plates, forks and tableware for the relatives! Beautiful and peaceful grounds in horse country. It snowed and the kids made snowmen. Since we live in warm climate it was an adventure for the kids. Enough wine glasses for all and a chef stove! Rent this for a long weekend in the country with the people you love and miss!

Book it!

We are a group of 8 college friends (for 40+ years) who stayed at this lovely home for our annual get-together. It was absolutely wonderful! It was super clean, beautifully decorated, very spacious with numerous rooms to sit and chat, comfy beds, 4 full bathrooms, thermostats in every room, etc. The large kitchen (always a focal point for our group) was extremely well stocked. We wanted for nothing. There is a fire pit out back which we thoroughly enjoyed. The location is near a number of parks (hiking trails) and some cute small towns. The owner is super nice and extremely communicative. I would certainly book again. If you stay here, you will not be disappointed.

Beautiful 10 Days in Connecticut

This was a beautiful location - if a bit of a drive to do and see things in the area (we just weren’t familiar with Connecticut). It was extremely clean, well stocked and had a wonderful dining area and outdoor patio with a fire pit. The weather was perfect and we spent every evening on the patio. Communication was excellent. Beds were comfortable. My only minor comment is that several of the bedrooms had no closet and we had difficulty with the upstairs tv’s. We had a great time! We went to the Ferris Creamery which was recommended THREE times! The local grocery stores were great. I would definitely recommend this property.

Fantastic property

From the very beginning, through the planning and the checkout this was an amazing VRBO. Janet was so helpful in deciding if the property would be a good fit for my family. She made some very impressive suggestions including Vazzys, Ricci (salon) and the creamery (we went 5 times in 6 days). She also helped us figure out the municipal swimming pool which is very nice. The house is very well stocked with plenty of towels, trash bags, detergent, blankets/towels. There are lots of extras like ping pong, corn hole, board games and outdoor balls. The fire pit was the perfect place to sit and enjoy the cooler weather and beautiful scenery. This was the first time my extended family had gathered since before COVID and it was the perfect place to get together, relax, see a new part of the country for us and make new memories. Thank you Steve and Janet!

Perfect Fall Weekend

We had an absolutely lovely stay. Seven adults and three kids under 10 stayed for a long weekend for a family wedding. There was plenty of space for everyone to relax, socialize and play. The kids loved playing outside in the beautiful yard. With the fall foliage, it was like looking at a painting every time you looked out a window! The kitchen is fully equipped, we only cooked a couple of breakfasts, but preparing a full meal in that space would be a pleasure. We would love to stay here again the next time we are in the area and highly recommend this property!
