Updated cottage "Beriozka" on Cedar Lake
Originally from Russia (hence the name “Beriozka” meaning Birch Tree) I live in Stamford CT. About 7-8 years ago I’ve discovered Chester/ Essex area and fell in love. I’ve been coming here during summer to enjoy river rides, during winter just to see snow on the ground of old towns and needless to say during fall – when all the beauty of nature unfolds. Then came an idea to have an own place here and when an opportunity came to buy this small cottage on Cedar Lake I’ve jumped on it.

Cozy cottage 5 minutes from UConn
Wake up to the morning sun over the lake in the loft, or rise after the sun in one of the two back bedrooms. Enjoy a morning coffee or tea while enjoying the lake view from the bar top overlooking the water and watch for the Swans, Bald Eagles, and Blue Herons. After a hike on the trails, kayaking up the lake into conservation land, or fishing off the dock, relax in the hot tub. As the sun sets over the trees cuddle up on the couch with a good book and keep an ear out for the owls.

Come to the woods and snuggle in front of the fire
Come to the woods of Southeastern Connecticut and enjoy some solitude and connection in the woods while wrapped in our flannel LL Bean bathrobes. Snuggle with a glass of wine or coffee by the fire and unplug, rest, and rejuvenate with your partner or by yourself. Only fifteen minutes away from casinos, shopping or restaurants in Mystic or downtown Westerly, RI.
