Spacious family home with open floor plan.close to lake and clubhouse! | House in Goshen
3 Bedroom House in Goshen
Welcome to The Woodridge Retreat! A spacious, pet-free family home...residing on over an acre of wooded land...in a peaceful, friendly community on Woodridge Lake.
The house has an inviting, open floor plan, and is both elegant and cozy. It can accommodate up to eight people. The master bedroom and bath are on the main floor. There are two bedrooms upstairs, and a loft/common area with a comfortable queen sofa bed, if needed. I have a two-night minimum stay requirement.
The screened porch and adjoining deck are wonderful for relaxing and dining during the warmer months. During autumn, leaf-peepers can enjoy the spectacular leaves and covered bridges, as well as a fire pit on the patio. In the winter, you may enjoy the warmth of the wood-burning fireplace, and when the snow begins to fall, skiers are just minutes away from Mohawk Ski Area!
There is a two-week minimum stay between June 1st and September 30th. If you rent for two weeks, or more, you will have access to the lake and its amenities...less than a ten-minute walk...and a two-minute drive or bike ride! As a temporary member, you must register with the office, pay parking and associated fees, and follow the rules and regulations of the WLPOA.
Amenities for renters who stay two weeks, or more, include a beautiful lakefront clubhouse, marina, four beaches, eight tennis courts (4 clay and 4 hard courts), a pool, gym, basketball court, and playground. You will also have access to my two kayaks (paddles and PFDs), at your own risk.
Children can join the summer camp, be on the swim team, and take tennis lessons. Activities may include yoga, pilates, aqua exercises, birding, and biking. You can picnic and play corn hole or volleyball. There's a band playing every week and weekend, throughout the summer. You can dance on the beach under the moonlight!
There are two bikes (with helmets) and a set of golf clubs in the basement, available to all renters, at your own risk. There are plenty of board and lawn games, books, and music for both children and adults to enjoy. There is a gas barbecue with tools, and beach equipment for the beach (chairs, umbrella, totes, picnic supplies, toys, floats, towels, cooler, etc).
Woodridge Lake offers a vibrant, year-round social calendar (for renters staying at least two weeks), and the community is filled with warm and friendly people. In the summertime, there could be a Cardboard Box Boat Race during the day, and a Hawaiian Luau Party at night.
In the winter months, there is skating and ice fishing on the lake. There might be workshops in printmaking, drawing, and stained glass for adults...and fossil casting for children. There may be a concert in the clubhouse, as well as, Trivia Night, and an Ugly Sweater Party!
Goshen, in Litchfield County, resides in the foothills of the Berkshire Mountains, world-renowned for their natural beauty. You will appreciate having a car for plenty of scenic drives through this rural and quaint, small-town area. The Village Market & Gas is close by, but if you should need some major shopping (Stop and Shop, Target, CVS, etc.), you will find it all in Torrington, less than ten miles away. The towns of Litchfield and Bantam are around six or seven miles away, and are also great places to shop.
Throughout the area, you will find great restaurants, live theatre and music, ballet, movie houses, antique stores, and unique shops. Just a few miles away, there is a ski area, golf course, and race track, as well as, great hiking, birding, river rafting, canoeing, kayaking, horseback riding, and covered bridges.
NOTES:
- Please respect that I host a smoke- and pet-free home. Smoking is permitted on the screened porch, deck, and front stoop, only.
- You must have permission...and there will be surcharges...for an early arrival, delayed departure, and extra guests beyond my maximum capacity of eight people.
- No access to the lake or its amenities, unless your stay is for two, or more, weeks.
- Guests may be charged an extra cleaning fee for mishaps, and unusual circumstances, including failing to turn off utilities (AC and/or heat) upon leaving, which may require a house check.
- Unfortunately, it is not possible (nor allowed) to charge your electric vehicle(s) at this time.
- No cancellation policy after March 31st for reservations made beginning Memorial Day weekend through Columbus Day weekend. There is a two-week minimum stay requirement during this peak season.
Thanks for reading, and I look forward to hosting you at The Woodridge Retreat! :)
