Great family get away!

soccerfeismom RI
Review Submitted: August 23, 2009 Date of Stay: July 2009
My family stayed at the cottage for a week in July. We could not have been more pleased. Dan and Tina are wonderful; Tina was always around to help out or supply odds and ends when needed. We fished nightly, had a campfire, went out in the canoe several times and just relaxed. My girls were at a camp in Sturbridge for the week and this was a great place to come home to every night. We hope to be able to come back next summer!

Owner's Response: Thank you for your review!

Tina is still talking about how much she enjoyed visiting with your girls; please do come back next year.

We attempt to make all our guests feel comfortable and at home. Tina and I hope you will give us a chance to do the same for you.

Sincerely,
Dan & Tina

Late summer stay

Tom & Pat Spofford, NH
Review Submitted: August 29, 2009 Date of Stay: August 2009
My wife and I were planning on VA Beach until Hurricane Bill came through and we ended up at Dan and Tina's cottage. Great surroundings and weather. The water was clear and warm. The cottage is a rustic lake cottage with all amenities. Property was well kept and clean. Dan and Tina were great and if they couldn't answer a question about something or somewhere they would get you the answer. Great, relaxing time.
Owner's Response: Thanks for your review!

As always, we try our very best to make our guests feel at home. The cottage is constantly being improved to make your next stay even better!

Give us the chance to make your vacation or short stay a pleasant and relaxing one to remember.

We hope to see you soon,
Dan & Tina

Awesome property with lake access

BastienAndYalonda Cambridge
Review Submitted: May 26, 2009 Date of Stay: May 2009
This property is extremely well located, with direct access to the lake and close to Webster. The neighborhood is quiet and nice. The owners are extremely helpful and live right across the property, which is helpful for dealing with the keys and other practical details. The house itself sleeps 3 couples (2 bedrooms and 1 sofa bed, there is also 1 small bed in the veranda that can sleep 1 person), is very comfy, well maintained and clean. This property is definitely a clear winner, especially because of its location and price.

Owner's Response: Thank you so much for your review!

Tina and I will continue to make improvements to the cottage and grounds to make future stays with us even better.

Please come again soon.

A Nice family get away

northerncrew CT
Review Submitted: December 9, 2008 Date of Stay: November 2008
My boys and I found ourselves wanting somewhere to go for Thanksgiving as my husband is deployed to the Persian Gulf for the holidays. We found the cottage to be just what we were looking for. A place to take our minds off of our everyday troubles. The kids and I loved exploring down by the lake and hiking at the nearby state forest. Dan and Tina were so nice to us and helpful even when I tripped a fuse on Thanksgiving!!! I can't wait to bring my husband there for a family vacation in the future. Thanks again for everything and have a safe and happy holiday season.

We wish you and your family a safe and happy holiday season too! And, we look forward you meeting your husband back safe and sound from the Persian Gulf.

Relaxing Vacation!

Traveler Polly Southern New England
Review Submitted: December 1, 2008 Date of Stay: August 2008
A friend and I spend 10 nights in August 2008 at the Douglas cottage. It was perfect weather....warm days, cools nights. It is a cottage set beautifully beside the lake....we had fires over near the dock and watched the sun set. The cottage is not exactly a modern home...but it does have all the modern convenineces...cable TV, internet access, washer and dryer. We were comfortable and had a great time. Dan and Tina were available to answer questions and help whenever we needed anything!
The only drawback is the area does not have a lot of dining options...we found few restaurants in Douglas or the surronding area.....so we found ourselves grilling or cooking out at the firepit.
Recommended for:  Adventure Seekers, Sightseeing
Owner's Response: Thank you for your review!

Tina and I will continue to offer the best we can in comfort and relaxation by the lake.

We hope you will return to stay with us again soon.
