We primarily booked this Lake House for the dock - we wanted to do some Lake fishing without renting a boat, and we needed the dock to be sturdy and accessible easily from the house without a steep incline or difficult walkway. SO, we did have a great time fishing, all catch and release for us, - lots of "action" from catfish, perch, bluegills, bass, and a muskie.
The house is a cottage of sorts, and it is beautifully decorated in an outdoorsy style, and has great beds and seating that make it very comfortable. It has a big front porch, half of which is covered, with a big table and a gas grill, and there is a nice yard leading to the Lake. The house is very clean and has what looks like brand new appliances and it is very well stocked with whatever you might need to prepare meals. The owner provides board games in the house and there are also things to do outside, like ping pong and some things to use on the water like a canoe, I think.
The second floor, which you get to by going up some rather steep stairs, has three beds and a seating area, whereas the lower level has two small bedrooms, one with two twin beds and the other with a queen bed. The full bath is on the main floor with plenty of towels and bath accessories.
The owner is very welcoming and very accessible - she showed us all the features of the house and had suggestions about things to do in the area, which is basically the town of Bethel,and the surrounding countryside, the site of the Woodstock festival in 1969.
We look forward to returning !
