Upstate Historical Artist Villa w/ firepit, pool and close to Candlewood Lake CT

Escape to this massive villa with pool, game room and fitness center. Perfect for family reunions and corporate retreats

This sprawling hillside hideout is tucked away on six private acres with a rich history dating back to the original construction when it was featured for the August 1928 edition of House Beautiful. The home was designed by Ilonka Karasz, iconic artist of 200 New Yorker covers and co-founder of MOMA. The original homesite has been expanded to provide more space for guests to enjoy this natural sanctuary.

An option for a large group
This house was large as advertised and has a very nice communal kitchen/dining area/living room for everyone to spend time together. The host was also responsive throughout, though our concerns weren’t quick fixes so we didn’t flag. We had a few cleanliness issues, namely tied to leftover food items in the fridge along with the pool which hadn’t been properly cleaned (kids used it, but nobody was too keen to go in). We also weren’t confident the fridge was working as it should and had to throw out warm food (though freezer was all good). While there are some individual AC units, they were not in every room (which was called out in the listing). It was extremely hot and people couldn’t sleep so we purchased our own fans. This also made it so we were unable to use one of the loft common areas as it was sweltering during the day. Overall, this group has done a similar trip for 15 years and we often repeat locations, but this is one we wouldn’t return to without updates.

Exactly what we were looking for
Property was exactly what we were looking for with a group as large as ours (14 people). Plenty of indoor and outdoor space. Great kitchen as well (cooked all of our meals in the house for the whole group).

Great villa for big groups
The house is really big, we enjoyed the billiards room, the barbecue, and fire-pit. Be aware that since it is near the woods, there will be some bugs around but it is not that much of a problem. Everything was decent and I enjoyed having 15 people there.

Check in was easy. Pet friendly. Very spacious. Very clean 👌 👏. Pool was great. I was so happy the air conditioner was working great because it was 95 degrees. The property was near to shopping areas. I will stay again..
