We have been visiting Cornwall Bridge for the last 7-8 yrs and always have a great time staying at this property. The house had a "facelift" this year with lots of positive changes and improvements including new appliances, new mattresses etc. The house was spotless and clean. Even our dog was excited staying at this property. Thank you again for sharing your home with us. See you next year.

This property is fantastic. It is tucked away, off the main road, in a perfect nook of CT - Cornwall Bridge - with a home, pool and everything else you'll need for a killer family/friends trip. Our family of 4 plus pup brought kayaks intending to hit some of our favorite lakes but with the pool we never left the property! Lots of open space inside for eating, conversation, playing games. Aesthetic is kinda industrial meets shabby chic...a trendy 3 bedroom Tribeca loft, spiral staircase included, on the hillside banks of a beautiful river. Here are just some of the things we did in our week-long stay here... Pool, pool, pool! Frisbee tosses in the yard with Cookie Started up the Fire Pit and made S'mores in yard at night Swung from a swing suspended from a 100-year-old tree. Coffee on the terrace overlooking the Housatonic River Enjoyed bees, birds & butterflies in the beautiful gardens Watch Olympics/Play games in the lower level living room Cooked and ate a big communal dinner with friends Rocked in a rocking chair (covered) while enjoying an amazing downpour into the woods and river. We did leave a few times...to get food, thrifting/shopping, grab coffee, get ice cream, enjoy top-notch breakfast sandwiches from Wilson's and JP Gifford in Kent, get more ice cream (Fudgie's and Arethusa). Kent Falls is down the road. Kent Package Store too, for local brews and wine. It was like staying at an old friend's place! We loved it and hope to be back!!!

What an open, hospitable space; interesting as a museum but comfortable for ages 2-70. Everything you can possibly think of is there - from soda stream to dog crate, to crib, swing, beautiful clean pool and deck, TVs, projector, grill, fire pit and more. The setting is quiet and stunning.

The house not was not cleaned prior to our arrival. The kitchen was filthy. There were a lot of mouse droppings in the kichen - a pile. There were dead insects and grease above the stove - hanging over the stove from the fan above. The silverware and pots and pans were literally thrown in to the drawers and the drawers as well as contents were filthy. The Keurig did not work. I heard at night what sounded like animals running in the ceiling. There was a live mouse in the kitchen. There were spider webs all over the windows and the ceiling.The refrigerator and freezer were not cold enough. There were ants in the refrigerator when I arrived. I had to throw out the contents of the freezer because they defrosted. The pool gate would not shut. You couldn't reach the hose handle because it was deep in the bushes. The balcony with the grill was not as pictured. It is actually green all over the cement and there was a food container covered in mold on it and the grill was also filthy. Towels were old and had holes. You also have to take to gargage to the dump which is only open on certain days. I sent this information with pictures/videos to Vrbo. The host sent a handyman and cleaners who fixed some of the issues but she stopped responding to my emails and many issues were never addressed.
