Entire 2nd Floor Unit, Lakeside, 5min walk to town
About this house rental
Come home to a view of the lake out of your front windows, the nightly sunset off of your back deck, and an open floor plan that keeps things nice and simple inside. This recently renovated second floor apartment has been designed with great care. Enjoy some modern amenities like stainless steel appliances and hardwood floors, along with the convenience of in-unit laundry. Join the locals and go for a run around the lake, located across the street, or take a stroll down the street and enjoy the seasonal farmers market, Christmas tree stand, and the ball diamond located at Veteran's Field. Continue on a few minutes farther and dine at the local restaurants, treat yourself at the day spa, and shop at some of the town’s best boutiques. The house is located on the commuter rail train line which can be a little noisy and even rattle the house a bit, but our infant and toddler sleep right through it. Just in case, we provide a white noise machine for any sensitive sleepers! In only a 5 minute walk down the street and a 20 minute train ride into the city, you can be enjoying the sights and sounds of Boston. Please review the list of amenities that are included below and note that we do not have a TV. We do offer a large computer monitor on the desk in the bedroom along with wifi so that you can stream your own collection of shows and movies at your leisure. Additionally, we provide a fun collection of books, games, puzzles, music, and access to the great outdoors :) This is the owner’s unit of a two-family home (second floor). Each unit has its own in-unit laundry, front and back entrance, yard space, and private decks. Non-smokers only. No pets allowed. One off-street parking spot is available for your use.

Betsy and Gordon’s place was great to spend six weeks in the fall in the Boston area. The home is clean, located on the second floor and filled with light from the east in the morning and the south during the day. The living room, dining room and kitchen are a great room concept. The living room has an electric fireplace and the heating throughout the unit kept us warm. There’s no TV but we watched shows on our laptop and wifi worked well.
The kitchen has all major appliances and we were left with cupboard space to place our own food and cooking items. The kitchen is sufficiently equipped to cook or bake, which we used a lot.
The bedroom is large and light filled with storage for clothing in drawers or hanging and luggage racks. The linens are good though we found the bed a bit soft and the double size adequate. The bathroom is updated and comfortable. The washer and dryer are new, large and did a great job of cleaning.
There is a lovely porch on the south side with a beautiful grill, dining table and seating area. The back yard also has room to sit outside and enjoy the weather. There was ample space for us to park.
There is a lake across the street, 3.3 miles around, which I ran around daily. Two grocery stores are 1/2 mile away. The train to Boston is a 10 minute walk and we found this convenient to get into the city, rather than drive and park. The train passes behind the house and the car traffic in the front are noisy but there are sound mufflers in the house to address those.
I found the home easy to keep clean for the six weeks and there are cleaning supplies and equipment.
Betsy was very responsive to our inquiries and addressed any issues quickly. We were comfortable in her home and would recommend it to others.

I enjoyed my stay at the lake house. It was beautifully remodeled, spacious, conveniently located, and spotless. The hosts were available to answer questions and added some nice touches, such as a delicious home-made banana bread. Overall a lovely place to stay.

Thoughtful features include a description of local points of interest and restaurants, an umbrella by the door, and a heated bathroom floor. The minimalist decor is very relaxing and the cleanliness of the apartment put our minds at ease. I would recommend this place to any of my friends!
