About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

The Bungalow at Eagleville Lake Under 3 miles to UCONN!

UCONN parents take note; only 2.8 miles to the campus!

Spend some time at the newly renovated Bungalow, offering 2 queen bedrooms and a queen sleeper sofa, state of the art kitchen and large open living area overlooking the lake. The Bungalow has a chef's dream of a kitchen, with it's soapstone countertop, generous spice selection, coffee bar, small appliance cabinet and griddle/gas range.

The large open space lends itself to enjoying friends and family, all overlooking the tranquil lake. Enjoy a drink on the deck, go for a hike/walk, or have a wonderful day of kayaking and/or paddleboarding. We offer two tandem kayaks, two single kayaks, and a tandem stand or sit paddleboard for your enjoyment. You can paddle for miles in the lake or up the Willimantic River. Keep an eye out for turtles! Bring a fishing pole and bait and reel in a large or small mouthed bass! (Fishing license required )

If fishing and kayaking are not your thing, we have tons of outdoor games. Cornhole, horseshoes, badminton, and volleyball, just to name a few! In addition, there are miles of walking trails starting right down the road.

Coventry is known for its antique shops and restaurants. Once you've shopped 'til you've dropped, head back to The Bungalow to enjoy the firepit. Share a few stories and a few drinks. Once you are ready for bed, you will be sleeping on hotel quality beds and linens.

We strive hard to give you a 10-star experience!

A super lovely stay

My family had a wonderful time here while in town for a family reunion weekend. The property and views were so stunning and peaceful. The home itself is well-designed and beautifully, intentionally decorated. Everything just flows. It was such a joy to walk out into the main area with the kitchen-dining-living room in the mornings with the light pouring in. The home was clearly conceived to be welcoming, comfortable, beautiful. Our host was so thoughtful, which I really appreciated since we were traveling with our toddler. The kitchen had everything we needed and it was so nice to be able to do a load of laundry! Can't say enough good things. And we didn't even get the chance to use the many amenities (next time). We hope to stay again.

Bungalow Stay

The hostess, Lisa thought of everything for a comfortable inviting stay. The house was lovely! It is clean and nicely furnished. Everything is labeled and orderly. Lisa also offered ideas for places to visit in the area that were of interest and she also answered any questions we had in a timely manor. The view of the lake was very peaceful. We saw the swan and train! I would highly recommend the Bungalow. Lisa is a great hostess!

I have had the privilege to be able to travel and stay at a lot of places. But this is absolutely by far one of my favorite places. The Bungalow at Eagleville Lake is about 3 minutes away from UCONN. The Bungalow was a small Lake Oasis. We enjoyed beautiful morning breakfasts on the patio outside and smores at night on the outdoor fireplace. The cleanliness was exemplary. The bedrooms had fresh linens and soft mattresses. All the amenities were of outstanding luxury - inner tubes, paddle boats and canoes. Finally, communication between Lisa and myself was flawless. Prompt messages always addressed immediately. Thank you so much Lisa. We look forward to our return trip.

Well appointed, modern and comfortable bungalow.

Lovely, open living area with a convenient kitchen, featuring modern appliances and everything needed. Easy access from parking area and plenty to entertain. There is a community lake access area to one side, but fairly quiet with little traffic. For us, the only downside was getting down to the lake as it is on a slight slope of grass and my husband is walking challenged. Overall a relaxing, peaceful stay.

The home was beautiful and had everything you could possibly need. We some how ran over a nail and our tire was losing air and the home even had an automatic air compressor. The property and home were so clean.

This is our second time staying in this home. It’s nestled right on the lake and is perfect. It is stocked with everything you need, they did not skip a beat. Easy check in and check out process. Loved the gifts they left for us, always a nice touch.

Awesome Place tor a Cozy Home Away from Home!

We absolutely loved this home! We stayed there for a few days while visiting our daughter who is an athlete at UCONN! We hosted a team dinner for the girls and it was such a lovely time! Lisa had EVERYTHING we needed to be able to serve a huge make your own pasta dinner with apps and dessert. The kitchen is more well stocked than my own home with bowls, beautiful serving dishes and utensils. The atmosphere is warm and inviting. The girls all said that they did not want to leave and wished they could have a sleepover because it was so warm and inviting. Lisa even went so far as to have an extra folding table for us to use for the dinner. The beds were comfy also! We were there during very snowy weather and Lisa was more than willing to let us have a few hours later check-out so we could avoid the icy roads. We were so relaced and comfortable the entire time. We will be back and will book well in advance because I have a feeling this is a hard spot to book during the peak times on campus! Do not hesitate and book this home!

We had a lovely time there. The place was super well equipped with all the things you might need, beautifully maintained and peaceful. The access to the lake was great and we used the fire pit outside. Even though it was winter, it was a lovely view and great place to enjoy non screen time with family.

Great place on the lake!

What a gem this cute house was on the lake! The owners didn’t skip a beat with the attention to detail. It had everything and was so clean. Communication was spot on. We will definitely book again the next time we come to CT! We already miss waking up with coffee and watching the sun come up over the lake.

All around magnificent!

This enjoyable property lives up to and beyond its listing. The location and amenities make for an enjoyable, carefree stay. I can’t say enough about the ease of the process and access to everything and anything that one could think or expect for a “home away from home”. The proximity to the university made getting to activities extremely easy, as well. I will return to this property when I return for more UCONN fun! Thank you for a peaceful, serene, and enjoyable stay at the Bungalow at Eagleville Lake!

Lovely, Perfect, Wonderful Bungalow in CT!

My spouse and I stayed in the Bungalow and were completely awe struck as soon as we walked in. From the natural light, to the lovely nice touches of the décor, to the cleanliness, comfort, and VIEW, everything was just perfect. The owners have truly thought of everything! As someone who cooks while staying somewhere sometimes it can be frustrating to not have a good knife, Tupperware for leftovers, general spices, etc. but not here! I was delighted to be able to cook a full 4 course meal in the gorgeous kitchen. If staying, be sure to visit the Farmer's Market on Sunday's from 10-1 to get all your goodies! Everything was comfortable and clean, but the view takes the cake! It was so lovely to sit and bird during the day, and then have a fire at night. I cannot praise this home enough for your next getaway to CT!
