COLEBROOK, CONNECTICUT (LITCHFIELD COUNTY):
Cozy Authentic Log Cabin with HOT TUB
(Northwestern Connecticut, 25 miles from Hartford; 100 miles from New York City)
Relax in this authentic 3 bedroom log cabin on seven wooded acres with a private pond and sandy beach in historic Colebrook. Colebrook dates to 1765 and is a delight to explore - see the town website at http://www.colebrooktownhall.org/
This log cabin is all rustic charm with a beamed ceiling, skylights, and two stone fireplaces. Everything is typical of a period cabin but it's also modern and functional! There's a hot tub on the porch for cold winter nights. Two bedrooms accommodate two people each, and the library/guest room has a pull-out sofa that sleeps two. The loft bedroom has three twin beds, perfect for bunking the kids. The house is an excellent venue for girlfriends' weekends, family reunions, and retreats.
A dining room, eat-in kitchen, 3-season porch and basement recreation room with pool table and air hockey table provide in-home action. Read a book on the front porch, picnic in the meadow, or hike through the woods. If you run out of things to do, there is a combination DVD/VCR player (NOTE: television reception is poor here).
Colebrook has a public beach, a delightfully refreshing pond with picnic tables and changing rooms, basketball court, and baseball diamond. Nearby are four state forests with indoor and outdoor activities year round. Scenic drives in this area can be found on Route 7, Route 41, Route 44, and Route 272.
You can't beat this property for autumn leaf-peeping or winter getaways. This is a very snowy area of Connecticut and ski slopes are just 15 minutes away.
