All we were hoping for and more

Canadian Kiwi Canada
Review Submitted: August 19, 2009 Date of Stay: August 2009
This lovely home, which we rented while visiting Roxbury for our son's wedding, is spacious, clean, beautifully decorated, and very comfortable. There was plenty of room for our family of 6 adults and a toddler without anyone feeling crowded. The kitchen is very well equiped and there is a good music system and TV.

The owners were very helpful and generous. We held the rehearsal dinner at the house, and again there was plenty of room for our guests.

The house sits in extensive grounds, surrounded by woods, and is very quiet. Our little grand daughter loved being able to run around and play outside which she would not have been able to do had we been in a hotel. It is worth noting that this house is in no way childproofed, which was not a problem for us as there were plenty of sdults to watch the baby, but could be a concern for others.

The farmers market just down the road has good fresh produce and a limited range of groceries.

We would not hesitate to recommend this property to friends or relatives.
Owner's Response: Thank you Jane. We appreciate the kind remarks. For future travellers, we are able to remove anything that might deter from having children stay at the house - and have had many infants and toddlers who love the yard and garden and being able to walk on the marked trails near the house and watch the beavers working in the pond. This summer we have trio of cows in the meadow that appeal to young and old.

Summer Staycation

Review Submitted: September 11, 2008 Date of Stay: August 2008
We decided this year to stay close to Manhattan - drivable distance but wanted the countryside for our 6 weeks. This house was everything we wanted and more - the setting is beautiful, the house immaculate and the proximity to great restaurants, lots of activities and events (like BBQ & Lobster suppers at local churches, wine festivals, book signings, antique galleries, amusement parks, museums, country fairs) were so plentiful we had a hard time deciding what to do. Very bright with lots of sun - we looked out to greenery from every window - there were games for the kids including croquet, badminton, horseshoes, bikes and we hiked a lot - the air is so clean and fresh that we left the windows open and hardly turned on the AC. The kitchen was a dream - every appliance and all the cooking stuff you could possibly use - some of it I wasn't sure what to do with! There were loads of cookbooks too! The music and reading library were extensive - TV reception and cell phone reception great and the ability to dial anywhere in the US without worrying about extra charges was a nice plus. The outdoor grill (Weber - brand new) and seating for about 10 people allowed us to have a few friends join us a couple of weekends. We truly loved this location - Roxbury is just gorgeous - the quintessential New England town with churches, town green, small country store and a gas station out of the 1950's. Maple Bank Farm has an outrageous farm stand with everthing including flowers and fresh cheese. Our kids loved the lambs and the scottish cows.
We would highly recommend this house - it has everything.

Glorious Litchfield County

Abby & Win London
Review Submitted: September 9, 2008 Date of Stay: September 2008
We have rented many houses for weekends in Litchfield County and this house is by far the best we have ever stayed in. The amenities were terrific, spacious rooms with large closets - incredible wooded views from every room. Perennial flowers everywhere and wildlife galore - we saw turkeys, fox, deer, coyotes, squirrels, beaver, rabbits and eagles all in three days. Our children were excited with every new arrival or animal that ventured over the meadows and through the woods. The hiking trails were very easy and fun - the farmstand up the street was fantastic with produce, apples, corn, fresh bread, cheeses, eggs, everything organic and the taste beat what we can get at organic markets in the city. Needless to say we bought a lot on Sunday to take home. The kitchen was so well equipped that we cooked quite a bit and enjoyed the large deck and patio that had umbrella lights at night - it was beautiful and no bugs of any kind!
We would recommend this house to families, couples, just about anyone who wants a peaceful weekend in a beautiful setting and only 1.5 hours from Manhattan.
Owner's Response: Nicky
Thanks so much for the kind words. We are glad you enjoyed your stay and had such a wonderful time in the kitchen! We hope you will come back and visit again.

Picture Perfect Weekend

Bill & Alanna New York, USA
Review Submitted: June 24, 2008 Date of Stay: June 2008
Hi Katherine and Bruce,
We had a picture perfect weekend. The wedding and reception were wonderful. Your place was perfect for our family....what a great spot to gather. We meant to leave a thank you note Sunday AM, but we were swept up in airport rides and last minute things. The home was ideal for the rehearsal party...everyone loved it. It's a risk to rent a place sight unseen, but your place exceeded our hopes....pictures on the net don't do it justice!

Thank you again!
Bill and Alanna
