The deck and views are amazing. If staying at this property, you just need to be aware that it is very difficult getting luggage and groceries into the property. You have to go down a long flight of stairs, walk down a very steep driveway and then go down another flight of stairs. Once you are in, bedroom access requires that you go up or down additional stairs. ##### Mary M. Stayed 3 nights in May 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Maura G.

The house is beautiful with plenty of comfy seating. Super clean. The view is beautiful and fun to watch all the boaters. We could not get fire pit to work, but this could have been user error. I would caution others that the stairs are a lot! Definitely not for elders and a real workout, but this was clearly stated in description. Otherwise an absolute dream house with plenty of space.

Richie and Helen were very gracious. Their home is beautiful. They had everything a family would need on vacation. We needed to attend an event and I asked Richie if they had an iron/ironing board. They did not. Richie was at the door 30 minutes later with the items! The temperature dropped about 30 degrees while we were there. We texted about heat and they responded within minutes and turned on heat. We were very comfortable. My parents are 80 years old. They managed the steps. They thought it was great exercise! Of course the golf cart was available, but my parents opted out of it. We enjoyed the many sites and trails. CT in September is beautiful! This home is a gem. ##### Elizabeth W.

Sep 12, 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Summer 22 We rented Anchors Away for 5 weeks this summer - The house is exactly as described. Everything that you need is provided - towels, linens, kitchen supplies, etc….. The views from the deck are gorgeous - Our favorite spot to unwind. We brought our boat and docked it right outside. We have 2 pre teens and a toddler and the home worked great for all. Helen and Richie were great hosts, very helpful and easy to communicate with. We would have stayed longer if we could. Would highly recommend this lake house. ##### jennifer k. Stayed 37 nights in Jul 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Michael P.

Super fishing from deep water dock. Trout, perch and bass are abundant. Would recommend. ##### Mark M. Stayed 17 nights in Jun 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### John K.

Their home was exactly as pictured and described, except that the view of the lake in person was more spectacular than any photo could ever capture. The kids loved the upstairs space, especially with a couch and a desk to make it feel like their own “kid zone”. We enjoyed our stay very much, especially the lake views from the deck every morning and evening and would definitely rent this home again. ##### Melissa F.

Owners absolutely accommodating and we’re such a help in assisting me to find the place (pay close attention to their detailed instructions re address!!) I would recommend bringing luggage/groceries in via boat (public launches easily accessible) or bring an alpaca along (negotiable pet?) because there are a LOT of stairs. Once settled in I didn’t want to leave! ##### Kristina T. Stayed 5 nights in Aug 2021 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Matthew d.
