Begin your morning with a brisk swim, then spend your afternoons fishing for rainbow trout and bass, kayaking, sailing, sunbathing or just watching the eagles and herons or the Sunday sailboat races from your porch, deck or patio. Your evening will be complete as you casually drift out to the middle of the lake marveling at the spectacular sunset. This can be your life all summer long. With approximately 50 feet of frontage on beautiful Alexander's Lake and located on leased land, this seasonal cottage offers 2 bedrooms along with one bathroom and a combo galley kitchen & casual seating living area. The reasonably priced annual land lease fee equates to what you might spend on a 2 week vacation, yet you can enjoy this seasonal property all summer. Optional membership to an active Lake Association provides many social activities throughout the season. Located in Connecticut's "Quiet Corner", and just an hour from Hartford, Boston or Providence, Alexander's Lake has been recognized as one of the cleanest lakes in the state.
