Go Jump in the Lake!
NEWLY RENOVATED FOR THE 2023 SEASON! Our lake house is situated on 1.5 acres just 250 steps to the Cove Road boat launch on beautiful Amston Lake. The lake is a pristine 188-acre retreat located in Lebanon and Hebron, CT. Swimming, kayaking, canoeing, paddle boarding, fishing, and sunbathing are all activities you can enjoy. There are no motor boats allowed, so you can enjoy all of those activities in a peaceful environment. Two beaches are located 1/2 or 1 mile away from the cottage with ample parking at both should you choose to drive.
The house is 850 square feet of pure cottage enjoyment. There are two bedrooms with a queen-sized bed in one on the first floor, and a full and twin in the other upstairs. A sixth person could sleep on the sofa. There is one bathroom with a shower and a washer and dryer. There is a full kitchen and a gas grill for cooking. There is one HD Smart television with wifi. Our cottage is a nice mix of high end and rustic finishes, and it is clean and comfortable. It's a cottage, and it feels like a cottage with a bit of style, especially when you are sitting on the porch swing, enjoying a cold beverage, and reflecting on the day. Or sitting around the fire pit with friends and family, while sharing stories and roasting marshmallows. It feels like you are in the middle of the woods. We have a canoe and two kayaks for you to use, a few beach chairs, and some lawn games. Lebanon is a beautiful, rural community with several operating farms. Amston Lake is on the edge of the Airline Trail where you can enjoy hiking and biking for miles. The Connecticut casinos are about 30 minutes away. Outlet shopping is located at Foxwoods Casino or in Clinton and Westbrook. The CT and RI shore are 40-60 minutes away. New York and Boston are about 90 minutes away. We are close to so much, and yet you will feel like you are far away from it all. We hope you enjoy your stay!

The host was welcoming and the cottage was in good condition. Loved the amenities and the cozy living room. Only blip was the gas fireplace was on the fritz. Thank you!
House was very clean, well equipped and had everything we needed to enjoy a relaxing getaway as a family. We enjoyed the firepit, covered porch and lakeside fun.
Cottage was great - had all the amenities to make our stay enjoyable - screen porch was especially nice for coffee and breakfast - location was convenient for day trip to Newport - also enjoyed waterfalls in the area
This was our second stay at the cabin as a family of 5, and we loved it even more than our first visit! The yard and access to the lake and kayaks are huge highlights. The cabin is clean, well stocked, with comfortable sheets and beds. It was the perfect place for our fall get away!
The pictures are accurate to the location, everything was clean and stocked with necessities. We ran out of toilet paper on the last morning and couldn't figure out where more was but we were leaving so it wasn't much of an issue. We could not figure out how to work the heating but the Host was very helpful and communicative with about it. We didn't go to the lake so I don't have any reviews for that but you cannot see it from the property. Overall it was a good time and a nice space!
Go jump in the Lake and you’ll jump into a lovely getaway!
The cottage was clean, cozy, and quiet. The area is beautiful. Whether you’re looking to frolic in the lake, explore the local countryside (which is so picturesque), or just need an escape from the hustle and bustle, this is the place for you!
We really enjoyed our stay at this cabin. The host communicated very promptly. Everything was very clean and home was nicely furnished. We enjoyed the location very much. There is a very nice bike trail nearby. We would definitely return.
Beautiful property and house - so quiet and peaceful! The stairs were too much for our old knees, but the downstairs bed/bedroom and living couch were very comfortable. Ammenties were great and host provided excellent instructions. Thank you!!
Property was cute, very clean, and well appointed with thoughtful touches like extra pillows, plenty of towels and everything we needed to prepare meals in the kitchen. Todd was extremely responsive to my questions and even offered to come by if we needed anything else. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and wouldn’t hesitate to return when we’re visiting the area.
Another great experience at Go jump in the Lake. My family and I enjoyed two beaches, volleyball on the beach. The cottage yard is great for playing outside games. Hoping to rent again!!!
We like this place a lot. House was clean and Todd was very responsive to my questions. There are two bedrooms with one on the second floor. One thing we didn’t realize was, to get to the second floor there is a spiral staircase.

Very clean property. Well equipped kitchen. Very comfortable and had everything we needed. Nice outdoor area and screened in porch, although we did not use it due to the weather. Would definitely recommend this property. Easy communication with the owner via text.
Great host. Clean and everything in order. Very quiet and relaxing. Even put wood in fire pit. Lake short walk away. Loved the community. People wave as you drive by. Casinos not far. Plum Tomatoe Pizza and Inishmor good places to eat.
The cabin was even nicer than the pictures indicated. Everything's was nice and clean, cabin was easy to find. Weather didn't cooperate for me to get out on the lake but my husband had a wonderful time fishing for Striped Bass on the sound. I enjoyed the screened in porch. Would enjoy being able to stay longer

Clean house with good supplies. Was delayed to come in by 1 hour but was given an extra hour to leave. Stated game system but did not have one and no futon bed
House was cute and would be great for the summer trip to the lake! It was exactly what we needed! I do wish the fireplace had worked but unfortunately, it never stayed lit for more than a few minutes before it cut off. Aside from that, we loved it!
The property was clean and comfortable. The neighbors were friendly. We thoroughly enjoyed the baby bunnies that hid in the ornamental grass and woods.
