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 Permit 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!

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!

Wonderful, well appointed getaway
We had a very relaxing stay at the Bungalow. Communication with Lisa was perfect and we greatly enjoyed kayaking on the lake and sitting on the back deck in the evenings. The house decorations and lighting encourage relaxation and the beds are very comfortable. We definitely recommend the Bungalow at Eagleville Lake and look forward to returning in the future.

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!

My kind of place to stay
Staying at The Bungalow at Eagleville Lake was the best choice ever! Lisa is an extraordinary host. She's very kind and sweet and responded quickly whenever we needed to talk to her (on extremely few occasions). I loved the bag and the cups she left us as a gift as well as the chocolates with marshmallows for the smores. The house has everything you need (outdoor and indoor games, full kitchen, washer, dryer, hair dryer, among other things) and is perfectly organized and neat. It's surroundings, the birds, and the lake gives you a peaceful feeling and the coziness in the inside, it's decoration, and comfort, invites you to stay all day long without leaving. I loved The Bungalow and will definitely stay again. Thank you Lisa for a great place!

Best lake house ever!!
My family and I rent lake houses every summer. This was by far the best one we’ve stayed in yet. The communication from the property owner was fantastic! Everything in the house was immaculate and organized. In previous trips we have had to bring our own towels, linens etc. but at this property everything was provided. Lisa even added personal touches that my family appreciated:) It was the first time my daughters asked if we could return to the same property at a later date. Having a teen and a pre-teen, that is a joy to hear. Thank you Lisa for a wonderful stay! We will be back!

Lake House
The Bungalow is well equipped with outdoor activities, kitchen essentials, and an assortment of items to make guests comfortable. Unfortunately, throughout our stay, we did have an issue with dozens of small ants and a few other bugs inside the home. The host, Lisa, was very responsive and attentive, assuring she would call her exterminator to resolve the problem. Overall, it was evident that the lake house was designed to welcome guests. The decor is beautiful and the intentional little touches did not go unnoticed!

Relaxing Family Vacation by the Lake
We are a family of 4 with 2 teen boys who loves the outdoors especially fishing. The Bungalow is absolutely perfect. It’s peaceful and a wonderful place to have a nice relaxing vacation. The house is beautiful, clean and has everything you need to make your stay as comfortable as possible. And when I say EVERYTHING, I mean everything from kitchen appliances, outdoor activities and outlets everywhere - that’s one detail you never truly appreciate until you need it. We booked it initially because it’s lakefront and it’s fairly close to six flags New England (50 mins) where we have membership. So, the entire vacation was planned around that and fishing but we definitely want to go back and enjoy what the property has to offer and explore the surrounding towns more. Plenty of antique shops, nearby brewery and restaurants. It’s only less than 10 mins to UCONN and that downtown area has more restaurants and grocery store (even an Asian market). Lisa is an incredible host. I’ve been renting through VRBO for years and she is the most attentive host we’ve ever had. She definitely deserve the premier host title. She checks in on us ever so often to make sure we have everything we need and she responds immediately. We will definitely be back. We absolutely love it.

Home away from home
The photos do not do this home justice! We were in search of a much-needed R&R vacation and this was the perfect place to unwind for our annual cousins trip. Robert and Lisa have done a wonderful job renovating this home, from the decor; bedding; towels; linens; well-stocked kitchen appliances and games; in addition to the outdoor activities - there is nothing you will need that Lisa and Robert haven't thought of. We enjoyed kayaking and spent a day visiting the antique stores close by. This was truly home away from home. Peaceful, relaxing and extremely comfortable. Thank you Lisa and Robert for sharing your home with us! We hope to visit again in the near future! All the best, Cathy and Cara

Anniversary Getaway
Our week stay at the Bungalow was exactly what we needed to celebrate our 54th wedding anniversary. We were able to relax, disconnect, and enjoy the peacefulness of the setting by the lake. The bungalow is beautifully decorated and provided everything we could have wanted and more. We were impressed with the cleanliness, the comfortable beds and the special touches throughout. Lisa was a thoughtful and considerate exceptional host. She kept in touch when appropriate and offered helpful suggestions for places to shop and eat. When we weren’t relaxing at the Bungalow, we enjoyed exploring the local area. We hope to return and would highly recommend the Bungalow at Eagleville Lake.

Perfect retreat
Grew up in Mansfield and was visiting from Maine with my Mom. Weekend trip. We really enjoyed the bungalow at Eagleville Lake as our home base. Lake was beautiful and fire pit area was a special spot to enjoy morning coffee. Interior was very well laid out. Comfortable beds which is very much appreciated. Rain shower in bathroom a welcomed treat as well. Very comfortable all around. We visited Uconn as well as relatives living in neighboring towns and were always very happy to be returning to the bungalow. Highly recommend and will definitely return!

Escape to a Lake
We stayed here for a long weekend with our UCONN student to give him a change of scenery and to spend some quality time with him. The Bungalow is conveniently close to campus, warmly decorated and has lots of activities to foster quality family time and memories. My son especially enjoyed adventuring out on the lake with the kayaks. There are also many hiking trails nearby that we enjoyed.

Like the other reviewers, we were impressed by the decor and cleanliness of the bungalow. It was so relaxing and comfortable. It honestly felt like being at our own home. We can’t wait to come back when the weather is better so we can try out the kayaks. I’d even like to visit their Florida location. This is definitely one of the nicest places we have stayed.

Great Stay for UConn
My wife and I were visiting our daughter at UConn and stayed The Bungalow. It was close and convenient to UConn. The place itself was very well done with a lot of attention to detail. We visited in February and given the weather didn't get to enjoy the lack and outdoor activities, but it looks like it would be fun in warmer weather. The kitchen was well stocked, which is important for a foodie, and I had everything I needed to make a beef stew one night.
