Just what we needed
We were in CT to help some family members with a move and decides to try fitting in some relaxation too. Josh's place was clean, well decorated with many nice touches: amenities in the shower, a fully stocked kitchen and extras for the dog. We only wish we'd been right on the water! We did have space to go down to the water and enjoy the sunset, listen to the birds and we met a friendly Mallard duck. Duck and dog did not make friends. 😂 Josh was very responsive to all communication. Bed was comfortable, shower was great! Highly recommend.

Lake Pocotopaug
It was a lovely stay!! The view of the lake, groceries and great places to eat within 5 minutes! The place was a perfect fit for our family of four. We enjoyed the bottled water and Keurig from our host, and the kitchen stocked so we could cook meals together. I’m sure with warmer weather and access to the lake it would be even more special, but we enjoyed the winter stillness. Until next time!

Perfect Lakeside Cottage
I had the pleasure of staying in Josh's cottage for a month. I travel with my dogs and this cottage was perfect for us. The kitchen was well equipped and I was able to cook meals with ease. The bedrooms are large and I found the beds really comfortable. I loved being so close to the lake and spent a lot of time relaxing down by the water. The cottage is located close to downtown so getting to shops and eateries was very convenient. This is definitely one of the friendliest spots I have ever visited with my dogs. Josh thoughtfully included a box of doggy items that had all the necessities covered if I forgot something. We enjoyed walks around the quiet residential neighborhood and also on the Airline Trail which is about a 5 minute drive. It is a great place to take a longer walk and enjoy nature. Po's Rice & Spice and Jessica's Garden in East Hampton and Sadler's Ordinary in Marlborough are a few of my favorite places to dine out nearby. I really enjoyed my time at Josh's cottage and I would definitely return. Thank you Josh! 🙂
