Go Jump in the Lake!

NEWLY RENOVATED FOR THE 2023 SEASON! Our lake house is situated on 1.5 acres just 250 steps to the Cove Road boat launch on beautiful Amston Lake. The lake is a pristine 188-acre retreat located in Lebanon and Hebron, CT. Swimming, kayaking, canoeing, paddle boarding, fishing, and sunbathing are all activities you can enjoy. There are no motor boats allowed, so you can enjoy all of those activities in a peaceful environment. Two beaches are located 1/2 or 1 mile away from the cottage with ample parking at both should you choose to drive.

The house is 850 square feet of pure cottage enjoyment. There are two bedrooms with a queen-sized bed in one on the first floor, and a full and twin in the other upstairs. A sixth person could sleep on the sofa. There is one bathroom with a shower and a washer and dryer. There is a full kitchen and a gas grill for cooking. There is one HD Smart television with wifi. Our cottage is a nice mix of high end and rustic finishes, and it is clean and comfortable. It's a cottage, and it feels like a cottage with a bit of style, especially when you are sitting on the porch swing, enjoying a cold beverage, and reflecting on the day. Or sitting around the fire pit with friends and family, while sharing stories and roasting marshmallows. It feels like you are in the middle of the woods. We have a canoe and two kayaks for you to use, a few beach chairs, and some lawn games. Lebanon is a beautiful, rural community with several operating farms. Amston Lake is on the edge of the Airline Trail where you can enjoy hiking and biking for miles. The Connecticut casinos are about 30 minutes away. Outlet shopping is located at Foxwoods Casino or in Clinton and Westbrook. The CT and RI shore are 40-60 minutes away. New York and Boston are about 90 minutes away. We are close to so much, and yet you will feel like you are far away from it all. We hope you enjoy your stay!

Very clean, relaxing retreat!

We would have loved to stay in this house longer! And the host offered us another day but we were on a timeline! It was very cute, clean and very well stocked. The lake is not far from the house and it is very well kept. We made smores in the firepit and really enjoyed the family time here. The only small suggestion is the description is a bit misleading as the sofa is not a futon as listed. It all worked out for us, but could be an issue for someone that needs the futon. We had beautiful weather and ate every meal on the large screened porch! Very relaxing!

Great little spot to experience lake cottage living with modern furnishings. Lake life means might have a few bugs to deal with or low water pressure occasionally, but not an issue. Didn’t use the kayaks or canoe but that was only because our family owns a spot on the adjacent lake. The private lake access is comforting so you don’t have to worry about riff raff. Lollipop beach is super neat walkout. Owner provides some amenties which is very nice to have. Colchester town nearby has lots cool little spots to eat and checkout. We had a great little get away and would stay here again when we visit my family next year.

Second stay

This was our second stay at the cabin as a family of 5, and we loved it even more than our first visit! The yard and access to the lake and kayaks are huge highlights. The cabin is clean, well stocked, with comfortable sheets and beds. It was the perfect place for our fall get away!
