Take in an amazing sunrise with your morning coffee from one of many decks, perhaps from the upper deck or lakeside. Perhaps eat your breakfast, lunch or dinner outside at the large dining table. Prepare your meals indoor in the kitchen or outdoor on the grill.

End your day around the fire pit sharing stories, eating s'mores or with a glass of wine on the swing. Delight in the moon's reflection on the water as it dances to the evening sounds of the lake.

Enjoy a number of board games and even a foosball game. Keep score, draw, play tic-tac-toe or hangman on the blackboard wall! Play chess, checkers or backgammon with a lake view.

Grab some fresh air and explore the lake with Kayaks, a canoe, a paddle board or large swan float available for use on property. During the winter, try your hand at ice fishing, cross country skiing or ice skating.

The lake house is perfectly located to take advantage of all the region has to offer! Enjoy leaf peeping, casinos, parks, museums, aquariums, historic towns, restaurants, skiing or stay local and enjoy East Hampton and the surrounding towns.

Fabulous lakehouse; Wonderful hosts!!!
This gorgeous lakehouse was perfect for our group of old friends to gather for our annual board gaming weekend! All the amenities,spectacular views, and such a well maintained, comfortable, spacious and relaxing retreat. We thoroughly enjoyed all the lovely gaming spaces and nooks, and being able to cook all our meals in their extremely well outfitted kitchen, and with their lovely outdoor grill! Kayaking, birding and the sunrises over the lake were all amazing. Best of all, Dee and Jerry were so incredibly welcoming, kind and truly wonderful hosts! They went out of their way to accommodate us, and we are so grateful and thankful to have enjoyed such a lovely, memorable stay!. ensure that our stay was .Thank s!!!

Perfect Week
Nine of us stayed at the house for a week before my daughter’s wedding. The house, location and lake were all perfect. We had plenty of room inside and out. The house was very clean and outside area was great for enjoying the sunrise and evening fires. The lake was great to kayak and paddle-board. The owners were attentive to detail and easily accessible. We would definitely stay here again.

Lovely Lakehouse
We had a great experience as our little team of peers met to do some strategic planning for the next academic year. The owners couldn't have been better at communicating and making us feel welcome. If only they could have controlled the weather :). The house was equipped with everything we needed. The location was lovely. I will note that, maybe because we were friends and not family, if you were in one of the 3 downstairs bedrooms, you had to walk through the living area to get to the bathrooms. We managed, but it wasn't optimal for those of us who need to use the bathroom several times a night. Beyond that, it was everything we had hoped for.

This was the perfect spot to gather friends and family flying in to celebrate our UConn grad! Everyone felt at home and comfortable. Wish the weather was a bit more cooperative and we had more time to enjoy the lakefront. The outside deck was my absolute favorite place to wind down. Thank you for sharing your lovely home with us!

Wedding weekend
Our family was in town for our son’s wedding. This property was perfect for us! Plenty of room and absolutely everything we could possibly need was available. Nice linens, very clean and lots of amenities. We had a great time and would love to come back during warmer weather to enjoy the lake. Dee was super responsive and was able to help us out when we realized we’d forgotten a couple items. Thank you!!!

We were a group of 8 friends/spouses attending the wedding of our friends son. Everything about the house was great. The property owners had thought of everything we could possibly need and they responded quickly to any questions we had. The house is very well stocked and maintained. Beautiful setting directly on the lake. It’s a great location for spending time reconnecting with people.

The best property rental ever
We have stayed at A LOT of house rentals over the years and i really have to say honestly, this was our favorite. The only issue, was our time was too short. The property sits right on the lake and has ample outdoor seating options and great swimming. The hosts have thought of EVERYTHING, far more than average hosts. We never ran into anything that we felt was lacking at all, they have truly covered you for a fantastic stay. It was so great to have family together making memories at such a beautiful location. Hope too be back!!

Family Reunion
We came from 3 states for a week together and had a wonderful time at the house. It was roomy and comfortable for the 9 of us. The kitchen is very well equipped and there are plenty of activities, both inside and out. I especially appreciated the crisp sheets and plush towels. Thanks for the beautiful house.

Wonderful stay
Everything we needed for a comfortable stay was there - even birthday candles and superglue (which we used)! We needed an envelope for gratuities for church helpers (found them in the desk). We gathered for a family funeral and the house was cozy and comfortable. Great space to enjoy the lake view.

Perfect lakeside retreat for friends get together
Perfect lakeside retreat for a friends get together- games, lake activities and a cute little town to enjoy! the property was great, very clean inside … I think we may have been first renters for season cause outside was lots of cleaning cobwebs and spiders but once we got through that we were all good! Would definitely go back again :-)

About the host

Hosted by Dee and Jerry Williams

Host profile image
Dee and Jerry have been married for 25 years with two wonderful children. Lakefront home has always been a dream for us. After many years of looking and dreaming about a property it finally happened. Now we are interested in sharing this little piece of heaven to families looking for a getaway.

Why they chose this property

It has beautiful sunrises! You can walk out the back door and jump in the lake. It has access to small motorcraft and jet skis. There are plenty of local restaurants to enjoy, vineyards, breweries, and local sights as well. Most of all its a quiet place to relax by the water.
