Holiday rentals with a fire pit in Worcester County

Memorial Day weekend was cloudy, cool and windy, so my husband, elderly mother and I were especially pleased to have a nicely appointed and welcoming home base for hanging out. From a large screen TV down to the smallest of decorative details, Nicole has thought of everything to make for a relaxing stay. Having rented other places, I particularly appreciated spotless cookware, new bath towels, comfortable beds, and to top it all off an espresso machine! My tea drinking husband kept the electric tea kettle warm all morning. All this and a very nice, peaceful water view with great bird watching. We look forward to returning.

I booked the lakehouse for 4 nights to celebrate our daughter’s birthday. It was the perfect and relaxing celebration which was what we needed. The lakehouse was so beautiful, so quiet, peaceful, cozy and so relaxing. We just felt right at home. The instant we walked in and saw the view of the lake from the kitchen and living room we felt so relaxed right away. The home had everything you needed and was great place to unwind and relax. It was so clean, pristine and had all the necessities you needed. The home was decorated nicely showing their travels which we loved. The beds were so cozy, nice and comfortable, it felt like it hugged you. They had an office room that had a bed which was perfect for me to work from. We loved the lakehouse so much that we were sad to leave. But we will definitely be back. Haley was great, no wonder she is a superhost. She was so accommodating, responsive and so friendly. Thank you Haley for a great stay. We can’t wait to come back again.

Beautiful lakefront home. Perfect for a weekend getaway to celebrate our son’s birthday. The home was clean and cozy with views of the sunset every evening. Our kids really enjoyed fishing from the dock and from the kayaks that were provided for guest use. Thank you for sharing your home!

We had a group of four girlfriends coming to town for an anniversary party and the four of us stayed at Anne and Giovanni's place. It was easy to find, right off the main road, and check in was very easy. There are three real bedrooms with a queen each, the fourth bedroom is an attic/playroom with a bunk bed, so our fourth person elected to sleep on the fold out couch downstairs, which was very comfortable. There are two full bathrooms, one upstairs and one downstairs, which was plenty for our four adults. We had a full day of rain which turned out great b/c we sat in the screened in porch all day and caught up and watched the rain on the lake. We had everything we needed and the house was a lovely place to spend a long weekend together! Check out was very easy and our hosts were communicative throughout. We would stay there again!

We had a great stay at the lake house! It is in a great location--only 3-4 minutes from good restaurants. It's definitely set up well for families and my kids loved playing outside on the volleyball court. It has beautiful views from many rooms in the house because it is on a promontory on the lake. I highly recommend this place!

We were staying in the area for a wedding and Michael’s house was perfect for our family with plenty of room to relax.

We had a great time throughout our eight days there. The home is located on a small quite road, and the lake is beautiful. We took morning walks down to the lake and along the road. The local residents are friendly. The house contains all of the necessary supplies and is roomy and tidy. The widows show the scenic views from each part of the house. Duc and Ian were really helpful and quick to respond. The TV is by streaming through an electronic device. We cooked full meals in the kitchen each day. The appliances and the heating system in the home worked well. The site is close to the town center. Driving in the area is easy, and there are numerous local businesses. We look forward to returning to this location in the future.

This was our second time to stay. It had a gorgeous view surrounded by beautiful trees. It was so peaceful and relaxing with everything we needed. James is so easy to work with and very responsive. Highly recommended!

Absolutely loved the stay. Tom and Marissa were very kind to my family and I very much enjoyed the entire trip that was made all the easier and more comfortable with the ease of everything. Definitely will be back 😁

I stayed with friends for the September Brimfield Antiques Faire and had an incredible time. If you’re coming for the show, this place is a great option—the drive to Brimfield is about 30 minutes, but very easy and straightforward, and the Threadbare clothing and textiles show is only a few minutes’ drive down the main road. Monica was a great host and responded to our messages very quickly, bringing us things we requested and giving helpful instructions as needed. She keeps the place stocked with books, cassettes, games, etc. You can tell she put thought and care into making a great space for entertaining. The barn was bigger and nicer than expected based on the great price, and though the “bedrooms” were all connected, we each felt we had our own space and were able to decompress and sleep easily. The kitchen was stocked with most of what we needed to make our meals at home, and we had more than enough towels and bedding for all of us. I would definitely stay here again!

Great place to stay especially if you're visiting someone who attends FSU. Bed and sofa are comfortable. The washer and dryer are a plus. 2nd time staying here and love the fact that it's pet friendly so it makes it easier to travel with your pet if needed.

We stayed at Sama’s apartment to attend my son’s WPI graduation. It is conveniently located and accommodated my family perfectly. The apartment is furnished and decorated beautifully with attention to detail. Sama was very friendly and attentive, providing all pertinent information, making us feel welcome in her home. We enjoyed our stay very much!

This lovely spot perched right on the edge of a pristine lake was such a peaceful place to spend the weekend! Nothing fancy, just everything we were looking for: a comfortable, cozy space with a beautiful vista.

This was my second stay at Jessica's wonderful retreat space. This time, I was in town with 2 companions for my son's graduation from Clark University in Worcester. The apt. was perfect for this purpose, as it was for my first stay. This place is an oasis away, but very convenient to Worcester, restaurants, and cultural activities of downtown. For those who like outdoor recreation, there's a lake and a fabulous disc golf course nearby. If you wanted, you could just stay on site. Jessica's grounds are lovely--beautiful, well-tended gardens, places to sit and reflect in nature. The apartment is very comfortable for a good night's sleep, and it includes an inviting common space for guests to spend time together (playing one of the board games, or if one must watch TV it's there, too, but hidden from view if you don't want it as a focal point). A great place for a quiet retreat, or for families. Plus, Jessica is always gracious, helpful, goes above and beyond. You won't regret booking!

Celio's place was spotless. Beautiful decor the spot exceeds the photos by a lot! Plenty of amenities, well stocked tea/coffee bar, toiletries and even soaps and detergents. Beds were comfortable. Firm memory foam I think. Big windows let in a ton of light! Downside is makes daytime sleeping difficult. Minor gripe otherwise great space. Location is good. Walmart 7 mins away, for the kiddos Great Wolf Lodge is about 15min away. All in all great stay.

Great place to stay and even more when the weather is nice to enjoy the pool. Plenty of towels available for use so that is a plus. Absolutely loved having a Keurig available for coffee throughout the day. Welcome snacks were provided which was a nice.

I was lucky enough to spend a weekend here with my son fishing and splashing around and eating smores. Exactly what we were hoping for. The place is soulful and lovely and immaculately maintained and the hosts are kind and responsive. Hope to return!

It’s nice and private! Super relaxing regardless of weather and Thomas is super attentive! It was amazing.

Triggers cabin was what we needed…little to no cell reception but it was so nice being able to disconnect especially for the kids. My husband has a great time fishing in the pond, the kids were able to run around, seeing all the wildlife especially the otter playing in the pond (so amazing!!). If you are looking for a relaxing getaway…this is by far the spot to go! Carol was friendly and showed us to where the cabin was. She was responsive when we needed her.

This was exactly the quiet, peaceful retreat we were looking for. The sun porch is what sold us (we called it The Nook), and what an absolutely perfect place to sit and read together for a few days! A family of geese came to visit and we got to watch them up close. We loved kayaking on the pond too—it’s an absolutely wild body of water with tons of massive tree roots just beneath the surface, and millions of lily pads. This converted camp is beautifully decorated, clean, and spacious. Extremely relaxing retreat for two people on an anniversary trip.

We truly enjoyed our stay at Karin’s place. She is a gracious host. There were great cottage offers beautiful lake experiences, including beautiful sunsets. She has a great waterfront and an expansive yard. It’s located on the Massachusetts, Connecticut and Rhode Island border with easy access to 3 states.

Well-equipped and extremely quiet.

A beautiful and charming place to stay. You’re surrounded by incredible views and the house has a great layout. Would definitely like to come back!

Ethan’s place is in a great area. It’s an awesome get away. Highly recommend.
