When I first arrived here and pulled into the driveway, I was literally speechless (which takes a lot!)over the panoramic view. I have just completed my second wonderful stay at your beautiful, cozy cottage. My first stay was during the summer months and now it is fall. Both seasons offer a fabulous reason to come back and see what the next season will bring to Lake Alexander....a winter wonderland, I am sure. The beautiful lake during the summer months was most refreshing and the magnificent fall foliage surrounding the lake is breathtaking.
Sunset Point is truly "heaven on earth". I have travelled many places and Sunset Point ranks among one of the most beautiful places I have visited. Thank you, Jane and Neil, for opening your charming home to me. Looking forward to future stays.....

My husband and I spent our honeymoon in this lovely cottage on Lake Alexander. The cottage is equipped with everything you need to have a comfortable vacation and the water is warm, clean and perfect for swimming and kayaking. We had a relaxing and peaceful stay and have already started planning when to come back!

If you're looking for a place to escape the hustle and bustle, reconnect with the beauty of nature and enjoy the feeling of discovering hidden gems, then this lakefront cottage is for you. My family
and I spent Memorial Day weekend here at Lake Alexander, and a wonderful
time was had by all. Jane and Neil, thanks for sharing the spectacular view.

| Heaven. If you are looking for a place to get away and just get away. This is it. Close enough to areas of fun but not so close as to be annoyed by anyone. HEAVEN. |

WOW!! What a spectacular place! The lake & the surroundings are exactly as you described - incredibly beautiful, serene, & relaxing. This ambience extends into your cozy & well-appointed cottage. You have everything imaginable to make your guests fell comfortable - love ALL the kitchen utensils, the music CD's (so organized), DVD's. It was so enjoyable to be in a CLEAN & welcoming house!
Thank you for a perfect week of fun & relaxation!

| The cottage and setting were just lovely. I grew up in the area and spent many summers at this lake. I was so happy that my memory of this beautiful lake did not disappoint me. As far as the accomodations, the cottage could not have been better. The beds were extremely comfortable and the furnishings, as well as kitchen supplies, were top-notch. Thank you Jane and Neil for your thorough directions and suggestions. It was all very positive. |

Jane and Neil,
Thank you so much for opening your lakefront cottage to me and my family for our vacation. It was all that you had advertised and then some!
We really had all that we could possibly have needed and, while we didn't have completely perfect weather, we had enough to do indoors, with your music, movie, book library and board games available.
Our 5-year-old son just thoroughly enjoyed swimming in the warm, clear lake and we also enjoyed the excellent fishing with largemouth and smallmouth bass, as well as sunfish and yellow perch. Our son caught the biggest fish he's ever caught there!
We also had a chance to visit Mohegan Sun to shop and have lunch.
Again, thank you. |

Jane and Neil,
I would just like to thank you for allowing my family
to enjoy your home during our vacation. As
someone who has vacationed all over my
compliments go out to the both of you. Your
webste depiction is spot on. While most wesites
attempt to deceive the viewer, yours is exactrly as it
plays out in life., "What you see is what you get."
This is not a rental property but a home, a home
that anyone could be envious of. Like you know, my
wife and I grew up in the area, so touring the area
meant more to us than most. For anyone
interested, this home is a vacation. My family can
not wait to see which week I can rent again next
year. Please contact me for any questions, my
comments are not intended to flatter the owners,
this place is special. Kevin and Lisa Bianchi |

| My husband and I stayed here the week of July 14-21. The cottage is beautiful. We loved the stone fireplace. The lake was lovely and very quiet. I would definitely come back! |

Our second year in a row...
It's nice to step into a vacation house and feel like
you're home - but with a far nicer view than OUR
home! We have two young kids and we couldn't
keep them out of the lake. After they were in bed,
we enjoyed the quiet solitude of the lake.
When we weren't boating or swimming, nearby
attractions were an easy drive. We particularly liked
the Mashantucket Pequot museum next to
Foxwoods - wow! Thanks for sharing such a great
place.

Perfect place! Very nice house, good location - quite area, yet in the middle of everything (New York, Boston, Cape Cod, casinos, lobster eating places, state parks). One can feel how much the owners have worked to make the house warm and cozy. Excellent CD and old movie collection!
Special thanks to Jane for going extra mile to accommodate to some of our special needs because we arrived from a foreign country. We found the owners to be very responsive and generally very positive people. I highly recommend the place!

We have stayed at Sunset Point on three separate occasions, Thanksgiving, Christmas & while relocating to Connecticut. Each stay was lovely & we enjoyed the house & beautiful views.
The Cleary's have always been accomodating in order to meet our needs.
Thanks again. |

Jane & Neil,
Thanks for sharing your lovely lakefront home with us. We had a wonderful time - relaxing when we wanted to, lots to do in the area when we wanted to. The view of the lake is just great, we were impressed how peaceful and quiet it was, not speedboats zooming all over the place like some lakes! When we vacation in this area again you're at the top of our list! |

| We had a lovely week at Sunset Point. It was all that was advertised, and more. The lake is gorgeous, the cottage both luxurious and homey. Even the fishing was good! We were fortunate to be in town for the Brooklyn Fair, and enjoyed a hike at the Bafflin Bird Sanctuary. We needn't have traveled to find birds, however--the little cove just north of the cottage is home to blue and green herons, egrets and kingfishers, and Baltimore orioles sang from the treetops right over our deck! Only an hour from our home, but we were in our own little world. Truly a relaxing experience. |

| We had an absolutely wonderful week at the lake house! We enjoyed our stay in summer 2005, so came back again--both experiences were fantastic. The house (inside and out) are exceptionally well-appointed and well-equipped, clean, and very comfortable. It is a great spot for a peaceful, yet active (swimming, canoeing, etc) vacation. |

| Hi, Jane--We had the most delightful time staying in your lovely cottage on the lake! It was peaceful, quiet, wonderfully appointed with all the important amenities, and the view of the lake was fantastic. We'd love to call your cottage our "home away from home" when we are in New England again. |

The Ruth family is really enjoying sunset point! The weather has been great. Temperature and sunsets are picture perfect. I canoed down the Quinebaug river from Putnam to the Rte 106 bridge in Dayville with my son. I also discovered a wonderful bird sanctuary off of Wright's Crossing near Pomfret Center. An extensive tract of farm fields with well marked trails and courtesy maps supplied by the Conn. Aud. Society. It would be a great addition for your things-to-do booklet. Biking around the back roads (e.g., River Rd.) is very nice. A lot of the land is wild because it is under the Wyndham Land Trust. We are treating your home like ours!! Thanks again.

| We had a wonderful stay! We were very comfortable, the cottage is luxurious while maintaining that rustic feel and the fireplace is a classic. The lake swimming was the best, the water is such a wonderful termperature, very peaceful and so clean. The view from the deck and kitchen are spectacular. Everything you could possibly need was provided. We'll be back! |

The cottage was very quaint. well decorated and
fully equipped. The view of the lake is gorgeous.
Early morning coffee on the deck is terrific. The
Quiet Corner of Connecticut is quite picturesque
with lots of farm land and open spaces. We enjoyed
our stay very much. |

The cottage is amazing with its impressive chimney that is at the center of main room. And the view on the lake is unbelievable, it is a bit like being on a boat cruising on the lake, really.
The night sky can be pretty romantic too, |
