Peaceful Weekend Getaway
This house on the lake was perfect! It was clean, fully stocked with anything you may need, and offered a peaceful getaway on the lake. It was a bit cooler so after sitting on the dock for a bit, we retreated to enjoying the view from the all seasons room (and provided electric heater)! Looking forward to returning in the future!

Perfect spot to have the family together
The lake house is delightful, well appointed and the location is amazing. Our 13 year old caught (and released) a few fish, the 11 year old enjoyed the kayak and tubes on the lake, the weather was perfect, the surroundings so quiet, and all the amenities one could want were there. Thank you for sharing this lovely home!

Great stay on the lake!
We had a wonderful stay at this cozy home on the lake. Though it was a winter wonderland when we traveled I can imagine this would be a perfect stay in the spring time. Our hosts were wonderful and highly responsive, and we appreciated that snow removal was taken care of before we arrived. Very clean and comfortable home. We would definitely stay again!

Great views and home
The house and backyard is a renters dream. Lovely accommodations await especially by the owners. This piece of paradise is just what our family was looking for.

Third times a Charm
This is our third visit to the Catnip Inn. It is a beautiful home right on the water. We arrived on an unusually warm Thursday evening and immediately went to the dock to relax. The communication from the homeowner is wonderful. The beds are comfortable and everything is so convenient. We may have one more trip in our future. I am definitely recommending this home to others.

Best stay at an inn I’ve ever had
Beautiful house; everything you possibly could need is there. The beds were comfortable. The lake views were incredible. But the best part of our stay were the hosts. They were friendly and helpful and just plain wonderful!! I’d recommend this inn to ANYONE. You won’t find anything like it.

Great Lake Home
I traveled with my husband and 3 daughters (25, 11, and 10) and this home looked like the perfect spot to spend a few days while we were traveling. The communication with the property manager and owner were wonderful both ahead of time and during our stay. The home was as listed and was very comfortable with everything we needed and more. Everything was well labeled with clear instructions. The home was comfortable for us all! We were looking forward to being on the lake, but it rained while we were there so we skipped that activity and instead just admired the beautiful views.

Central Connecticut Gem!
This is a charming house that actually is even better than the photos! Spotless and organized. Kitchen is perfectly stocked. Came with a bag of nice Italian coffee, Kurig and teas with refrigerated creamer. Bed was terrific and large. AC and Heat easy to use. Easy to find and surrounded by everything you need, like food, coffee, bagels, restaurants.

Great week on the lake
The house was spotlessly clean and generously stocked with supplies, kitchenware and coffee, etc. The house was comfortable and easy to enjoy. The dock was impeccable and water access was easy. The hosts provided lots of towels, inner tube for the lake, firewood for the lakeside fire pit and a spotless grill with full tanks of propane. We spent hours on the lake paddleboarding (our own,) kayaking (with supplied kayaks, and swinming. The lake itself wasn’t huge, but it was large enough for us to explore, clean, and reasonably quiet. Mostly a few pontoon boats and the occaisional jet ski, but we never felt overwhelmed by motorized boats. We even got a visit from a bald eagle and a great blue heron!

Lake house 2024
An absolute gem. I love that the house is spotless and so well organized, well appointed, beautifully decorated. Lots of small touches make it feel homey and comfortable. For me, it is perfectly situated to lake and family for our summer visit. Love the location, conveniently located to local grocery/liquor/restaurants, etc. (You must try Blackie's hot dogs!) Owners/property management were friendly and available for communications. Amenities are many and in good shape (love the kayaks, and sometimes just chillin on the dock!). I only wish there were MORE rooms so I could invite MORE of my family to stay and enjoy this wonderful venue . Thank you!

Wonderful!!!!
I stayed in this lakefront home for about a week while in the process of moving to Wolcott. I extended my stay several times because it was such a wonderful place and was a great place to be while waiting for house to close and furniture to arrive. I stay in places such as these often and enjoy them much more than a hotel This was by far the best one I have stayed in! Not only is the house beautiful and right on the lake but the owners are responsive and super friendly. The house has just about everything you can think of that you might need and it feels like you are staying in someone's home- and not a rental property. I highly recommend this to anyone- you will never want to leave!
