About 7-8 years ago I’ve discovered Chester/ Essex area and fell in love. I’ve been coming here during summer to enjoy river rides, during winter just to see snow on the ground of old towns and needless to say during fall – when all the beauty of nature unfolds. Then came an idea to have an own place here and when an opportunity came to buy this small cottage on Cedar Lake I’ve jumped on it. The space This brand new cozy 730sf cottage with extra-large windows offers cathedral ceilings; custom built-ins; fully equipped kitchen with quartz counter top which opens to cozy living area with gas fireplace, pull out queen size couch; two bedrooms with comfortable queen size beds in each, luxurious bathroom with a full size soaking tub and spacious shower with glass wall and door; stack-able washer/dryer; two large Smart TVs, split a/c units in each room, ceiling fan in the living room/kitchen; handmade custom stained glass panels and artwork add character to this wonderful place. Large deck offers outdoor kitchen with sink and gas grill and dining area; enjoy a tranquil back yard with fire pit, four comfortable Adirondack armchairs and two lounge chairs under an umbrella. You can find probably everything you’d need including all kitchen and bathroom necessities, cooking spices, cleaning supplies, linens, towels, books, games, beach towels, four beach chairs, two swimming board and even two kids life jackets. There's a small public beach walking distance away Guest access the whole cottage and back yard is for guests use Other things to note If you are looking for cheerful get-together with a big company of your friends – sorry this place is not for you. Only four people are welcome to stay and no pets (don’t ask) no additional guest at any time. It’s a small lake community with private but not large yards where sounds travel so no music or laud conversations outside after 9pm, please. No candles inside the house – outside fire pit with plenty of firewood is available. No smoking inside either. Please try to use fireplace not more than 3-4 hours a day. During winter keep thermostats at 75 degree or less. The rest is very easy: when taking a shower please turn on the fan, when using a grill please turn on the fan and gas line - after you are done - turn it off. During check out turn off A/Cs and TVs (don't forget to sign off from all the networks you've watched during the stay) but other than that you don’t have to do any cleaning – you’ve paid for it. If you stay longer than a week – we don’t offer discounts but the cleaning lady will come to clean and change your linens ones a week free of charge ## Property amenities ### Internet - Available in the cottage: WiFi ### Kitchen - Spices ### Bedrooms - 2 bedrooms ### Bathroom - 1 bathroom - Bathtub or shower - Hair dryer - Shampoo - Soap ### Living spaces - Fireplace ### Entertainment - Books - Games - TV ### Outdoor areas - Firepit - Gas grill - Patio ### Laundry - Laundry facilities - Washing machine ### Comfort - Air conditioning ### Pets - No pets allowed ### Suitability/Accessibility - Smoking not allowed ### Safety features - Carbon monoxide detector not reported (host has not indicated whether there is a carbon monoxide detector on the property; consider bringing a portable detector) - Smoke detector not reported (host has not indicated whether there is a smoke detector on the property) ## Similar properties ![Exterior](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/106000000/105190000/105183900/105183859/7dda8a8f.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### COZY Maple Tree Cabin - Situated on 6 private acres- Enjoy nature Killingworth - Kitchen - Washer - Dryer - Free WiFi 10 Exceptional 47 reviews CA $502 CA $970 total includes taxes & fees Oct 6 - Oct 7 [](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-10-06&endDate=2025-10-07&selected=105183859&PinnedHotelID=105183859&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Exterior](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/39000000/38800000/38799200/38799111/0062c9a1.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Cozy cottage near downtown Clinton, Marina & Hammonasset Park Clinton - Kitchen - Washer - Dryer - Air conditioning 10 Exceptional 81 reviews [](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-10-17&endDate=2025-10-18&selected=38799111&PinnedHotelID=38799111&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Exterior](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/114000000/113310000/113308200/113308197/728215df.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Shoreline Oasis Clinton - Kitchen - Washer - Dryer - Air conditioning 9.2 Wonderful 7 reviews CA $249 CA $366 total includes taxes & fees Oct 5 - Oct 6 [](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-10-05&endDate=2025-10-06&selected=113308197&PinnedHotelID=113308197&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Property grounds](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/57000000/56550000/56547400/56547324/17327b68.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Summer at the Haddam House Haddam - Kitchen - Free WiFi - Air conditioning - Outdoor space 10 Exceptional 56 reviews [](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-10-17&endDate=2025-10-18&selected=56547324&PinnedHotelID=56547324&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Property grounds](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/89000000/88520000/88510200/88510197/db8cb4c5.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### The gardners Cottage 1 mile from long Island Sound - pet friendly Clinton - Kitchen - Dryer - Pet-friendly - Air conditioning 10 Exceptional 17 reviews [](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-10-17&endDate=2025-10-18&selected=88510197&PinnedHotelID=88510197&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Standard Cabin, 1 Queen Bed | Exterior](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/111000000/110240000/110235400/110235311/02403776.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Postcard Cabins Machimoodus East Haddam - Kitchen - Pet-friendly - Parking included - Air conditioning 9.6 Exceptional 70 reviews CA $194 CA $279 total includes taxes & fees Oct 6 - Oct 7 [](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-10-06&endDate=2025-10-07&selected=110235311&PinnedHotelID=110235311&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Smart TV](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/91000000/91000000/90991500/90991445/8e3d5f6a.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### 1-bedroom cottage with Grove Beach 🏖️ access.
