Waterfront Living at its finest on Candlewood Lake!

Craving a getaway with sweeping lake views from nearly every room? You've found it! Enjoy the Candlewood Lake sunrise from many viewpoints, including the large wrap-around patio, wall to wall sliders in the living room, porch off of the primary bedroom or huge dock. This home was made for entertainment between the open floor plan, THREE bar areas (patio, living room and lower level), large built-in patio grill, extended dock and ability to sleep up to 8 guests comfortably between the 3 generous bedrooms and pull out couch. At less than 90 minutes from NYC and 7 minutes to the center of New Fairfield, this little slice of lake in the Knollwood community is quiet, private, and about all you can ask for in a lakefront experience. Come by car or boat and enjoy!

Great property but needs attention
The location is a 10 out of 10. The property is excellent but has been ignored. The dock was in complete disrepair. There were many little things about the house that needed repair. Doors sticking, airconditioner not on when we arrived. House was 82 degrees. railings on porch were loose. Dead bugs in the house everywhere. no hand soap in bathrooms. Cobwebs everywhere to just name a few. If the owner went through it and fixed the little things, this place could be a 10 out of 10.

Beautiful Lake Escape
Beautiful location. The property was very comfortable for our family of six. Sleeping: The mattresses were comfortable on all beds, and linens were next to new. The bunk beds were doubles (not the traditional twins) and they had a trundle underneath that was a twin. This a great size for teenagers in our case. The pull out couch in the basement is not quite full size, so the night we needed the extra bed, my 17 year old son slept on it diagonally. Not a negative, just an FYI to plan. Location: Quiet neighborhood. It is about a 8-9 minute drive from a grocery store if you need anything. My kids enjoyed a local ice cream shop about a five minute drive from the house. The neighborhood is quiet and peaceful, with the only exception of lawn maintenance one morning, so if you are doing a one day rental, you may want to inquire on which day that lands. Shared parking/driveway but never an issue. Water access: It has docking space for a boat and the dock is sturdy and has an easy approach. You will need your own buoys and rope. You can’t see the bottom (water wasn’t clear) and was relatively shallow - we could touch - so I would discourage any diving. Amenities: Outdoor/Beach towels were provided which was a nice surprise. There are some books to borrow on the shelf. Basic appliances included, but we needed to bring everything else right down to the salt and pepper and bars of soap (not a negative on the VRBO, but just an FYI for guests to help plan as some rentals have more amenities than others.) Favorite Part: the outdoor deck was spacious and perfect for meals and nighttime games and stargazing. Management: very accommodating and easy to communicate with the property manager. Thanks Greg!
