Great location
5.0 / 5.0
We had a great stay at Anne and Ed’s property on Waramaug. The house was exactly what we expected and hoped for, and I would recommend anyone looking for a quiet spot on the lake to consider staying at their beautiful home.
5.0 / 5.0
This house was ideal! The five bedrooms accommodated our two families. The proximity to the lake (right across the street) was perfect. We spent mornings relaxing on the porch rocking. One afternoon we hiked Kent Falls and another we visited Thorncrest farm. A stellar vacation!!
5.0 / 5.0
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this lovely lake house! Plenty of living space, a wonderful porch with comfortable furniture, and a beautiful view of the lake.
The kitchen is well stocked with everything needed to cook and plate delicious meals.
The boathouse has lots of equipment to have fun on the lake and comfy chairs if prefer to just relax on the dock.
The property manager was easy to reach for questions and was very responsive.
Definitely a good choice for anyone looking for a quiet, tranquil getaway.

I am a vrbo owner and have frequently stayed at other VRBO’s.
If you are looking at this property and area, you know the market is limited and the price is high ( with an add on price for linens). This was known and expected.
While we really enjoyed our stay, I was surprised to receive a surcharge for cleaning ( above and equal to the regular cleaning fee). The renters agreement requires that the place is left in the “ same level of cleanliness “ as when you moved in.
We cleaned up and left the place neat. However, because there were crumbs on the floor and counter top and stove had not been scrubbed , the added charge was made. Neither we ( because it was unexpected) nor the owner have picture of the condition we left the kitchen ( we cooked and had kids). While I agree it was not “same level “ of clean when we moved in “ , it was left it good shape and in a condition one would expect would be a “normal” clean ,after one has cooked and used the kitchen for a week. We cleaned as we went, covering major spills ect. I sure the property owner will respond with a different version of the condition… but warning
Turns out that the owner views the charged cleaning fee to cover only light “tidy up”
My first thought was to not review and post this penny ante dispute,
And the property is very nice. Just make sure you scrub the floors ,stove and counters like you were expecting paying guests rather than having a housekeeper clean.

Best rental on Warramaug!
Our return visit didn’t disappoint! House is in great shape and in one of the best locations on the lake! The host communicated clearly and quick to respond when an occasional small issue arises. Already planning our return for a third time next year :)

A 'Lake House' Dream Rental!
What a fabulous overall experience at the 'Waterfront House on Lake Waramaug'!! Rob and Anne were such a pleasure to work with and were so accommodating. They made my friends and I feel so welcome and had all the house details/specifics so perfectly, and clearly laid out on our arrival. They had thought through everything! And the surround area could not be more gorgeous - the incredible views (especially from the front porch!!), the local winery and cute town. The only negative was not having more time there! We're hoping to be able to rent again in the future. You can not go wrong with this amazing VRBO rental - thank you for everything Rob & Anne!

Successful Thanksgiving Getaway
Cute home with all the amenities. Worried about cooler weather on the lake, but house was well heated and plenty of extra blankets. Thank you for sharing your wonderful home.

Perfect all around!
We were 12 women 'of an age' celebrating my sister's 60th. for a weekend. (We wish we could have stayed longer!) This house was so well equipped from kitchen to bathroom to living to dining to outdoor hanging. The manager was extremely prompt in answering a few questions we had during our stay. Beautiful home, incredible autumn views from the front porch. Highly recommend!

Perfect comfortable and beautiful getaway
Oh my goodness, we found our dream getaway home on Lake Waramaug. The views were stunning and the house truly perfect for our group celebrating an upcoming wedding. Everything was as described - better even - and we left already hoping we can stay again.

Beautiful Peaceful Vacation House
My husband, daughter, son-in-law, grandson age 13 all felt comfortable and at home here. We swam, kayaked, and enjoyed the paddle board. We loved cooking and barbecuing ….. The house is beautiful and accommodated to all of our needs…….We ate dinner on the large back terrace and
. rocked on the rocking chairs on the covered porch overlooking the lake. A perfect vacation!!

Absolutely fabulous!
A wonderful week at an amazing property. Beautiful house and absolutely gorgeous lake.
Our only recommendation would be to upgrade the bed in the downstairs bedroom. The coils in the box spring creak like crazy and make for a pretty poor sleep experience for two adults. Other than that, just perfect.

Family Vacation
Our family had a wonderful time enjoying all the amenities this lovely house has to offer.
The house was clean and fully equipped for your every need.
The view of the lake is beautiful.
The teenagers enjoyed paddle boarding & kayaking. The younger ones enjoyed jumping off the dock & floating in tubes. All enjoyed the fishing .
We will certainly be back!!

Wonderful House!!
We loved our stay at Lake Warramaug! The house is newly renovated and is exactly as the photos make it appear! No generous photoshop here :)
The kitchen is stocked with everything our family needed to cook every night, plus a huge dining table fit us all. Beds were comfortable and all the windows had nice blinds to allow for late sleepers. air conditioner worked amazing too on the 1-2 really hot days.
The boat dock and lake was probably our favorite part of the trip! Between the kayaks, canoes and fire pit…our boys never wanted to go inside.
We have rented 4-5 times on Lake Warramaug and this is by far the nicest rental we stayed at. The property manager was attentive, but honestly not even necessary for us!
We are already looking forward to a return trip next summer!!

Nice Place
We had a wonderful and relaxing time over Christmas and New Year's Day. The lake is beautiful. The house was clean and well appointed. The process was seamless. We were disappointed that the property did not have a real fireplace. But that was our only complaint. It was great.

Lovely Lakeside Abode!
My friends and I were overjoyed with our stay at this charming Lake Waramaug home! The house was perfect for a large group, and we had a blast down by the lake. As a bonus, the combination of the foliage and the lake was beyond beautiful. We even went swimming a few times despite the slightly chilly weather!
Tip for future renters: Take advantage of the lakeside activities (fire pit, canoe, kayak, fishing poles, and more!

What a find!
Wow! What a find! The house is as beautiful on the inside as the view is from the porch. All of us had enough space to enjoy family time and alone time. The kitchen is super well-stocked so that we easily prepared all of our meals throughout the stay. The hosts could not have been more welcoming, generous, or responsive. Thank you!!
