Amazing!
This was our third year and our best year so far! Our family lives in different states so this is a perfect meeting place. Fishing was great! Our relaxed swim in the lake led us to meet their very sweet neighbor (wish I could remember her name). Picked up some beautiful gifts at Saint Joseph’s Abbey Gift store. Christine & Pete are such lovely people and so easy to reach if you need them. All in all, another wonderful time at the lake. The only downside is that we should have booked a longer stay. Can’t wait to go back again next year! Thanks Christine & Pete! 🤗💕

Christine was very welcoming and accommodating with our family and group as we celebrated a college graduation, and two birthdays on her beautiful property. Each room has temperature controls, including the primary bath, and our family felt relaxed throughout our stay.

Five years of memories made
We have been coming here for 5 years. It is our "lakehouse" as our granddaughter puts it. Small town with good eateries. We also like to drive to West Boyleston to get yummy baked goods and great Italian food! We also love to go bowling in Spencer at the local bowling alley. Just so perfect for our family. Christine and Pete, the owners are the very best!

Beautiful Location!
Wish we had spent a little more time on the property (we did a road trip daily to see the leaves change). This is such a great location, amazing view, and the rental had a lot of space for parking and for us to have 5 people stay comfortably. Highly recommended!

Just sit back and enjoy the tranquility.
If you want to feel like you are tucked away from the world in the most serene setting, this little home fits the bill. It’s a clean, sweet cottage surrounded by tall trees, lush landscaping and the most peaceful view of the lake from the backyard. There are neighbors, but we never saw or heard them. The owner was responsive and made sure we knew what to expect. We would go back in a heartbeat. ❤️

Great family vacation
We had such a wonderful family vacation. The house was the cleanest I’ve ever experienced from a rental and the beds were comfortable. The backyard was simply amazing with so much room for the kids to play, the beach was perfect for my two year old son and the kids loved walking over to the swings in the park next door. The house was easy to modify for my mobility challenged parents except we did need to bring a higher chair for my dad because the chairs in the living room were too low for him to stand from on his own but it was an easy fix as I had brought a directors style camping chair and he was otherwise quite comfortable with the accommodations. Christine was warm and welcoming and gave us plenty of privacy but was also quick with a response if we needed anything. If my parents are up for it we will definitely try to stay again!

Fabulous lake location!
Wonderful and very comfortable home on a pristine lake. There’s a small public park with a beachfront right next door (a one-minute walk from the backyard thru a gate and you’re there)! The park has a perfect swimming area for younger kiddos and there are lifeguards on duty. The backyard is lakefront and provides a beautiful backdrop for sipping your morning coffee or evening glass of wine. The paddle boat was a blast (we are not good “drivers!), but we had loads of fun. The backyard has comfy chairs and a table/chairs set so it’s easy to eat alfresco in good weather. There’s also an enclosed porch with views of the lake (which also has a table/chairs set - so another option for dining!). There’s plenty of fun and unique shops to visit within a 30-min drive, and a great museum (Ecotarium) that’s best suited for young up to preteen kids. We loved the well-stocked game cabinet (cards, table games), which kept us well-entertained in the evenings. Our host Christine was super responsive to any and all questions we had both before and during our stay. She mentions that the place is called “grandma’s house”… which perfectly describes the vibe - comfy, cozy and with all the amenities of your favorite Grandma’s house.

Wonderful Lake Retreat
We had such a wonderful time at this house. Christine is a perfect host and had good communication throughout. Check-in was a breeze. The layout of the house is fabulous: spacious and clean with great amenities. The views from the backyard over the lake are spectacular. Swimming, boating, and relaxation in a huge backyard that was all to ourselves. We also made use of the games and puzzles. We hope to come back before too long.

Beautiful spot - Convenient location
Lovely place right on the water, immaculately kept up, quiet, yet less than a mile to Spencer downtown. Landlord was quite charming and greeted us with fresh flowers. It IS a duplex but we never ran into Christine while there as she made sure we had privacy. Lake was quite nice and we paddled each day as we brought our own boats.

Gem on the lake
We had a terrific time at this lake house—house was spotless, comfortable, peaceful…. We loved the fire pit, the view at all hours, son caught a few fish with the fly rod, daughters loved the hammock at the lakes edge, and grilled some burgers on the like new gas grill. A great recharge. Thanks!

Fantastic!
Our host was wonderful and gave us a beautiful bouquet of flowers for our daughters graduation. We were out on the hammock, took row boat and paddleboat rides, had a bonfire, a cookout and had plenty of space to host a small graduation dinner outside by the lake. We had 4 generations in town to celebrate and it was a perfect setting.
