Welcome to the Mermaid Cottage. Be greeted by a hand painted "Under The Sea" mural when you arrive to your secret treasure! This is a rare opportunity to own a seasonal property across from Bashan Lake. Work hard all week then pack your bags to spend quality R&R time from the hustle and bustle. Keep your phone on the counter and come enjoy the perks of one of CT's cleanest lakes - boating, fishing, kayaking or swimming. This cottage is one of three properties which holds dock rights and ownership to your very own private beach/picnic area. Also, a true fisherman's dream! Bluegills, trout, largemouth bass and yellow perch are stocked annually. After the fun in the sun, come relax on your porch to grill and entertain. Two bedrooms and an open concept kitchen/den are great for the summer overnight stays.
