Lakefront Vacation Rental

Kids on vacation at the lakefront.

A lakefront vacation rental house, Mansion in the Woods is located on pristine Whitin Reservoir, a lake in Douglas, Massachusetts. Located on ten wooded acres, with 800 feet of lakefront, there are plenty of activities for kids and adults of every age and every interest at this stunning lakefront vacation rental.

Lakefront vacation activities include fishing, swimming and kayaking on the lake. The gently sloping lakefront beach is perfect for kids; sandy, gradual and complete with climbing rocks. Sit back under birch trees, look out at the lake and watch the kids burn off energy. There is plenty of room for kids to run and play. Whether on the lake, in the lower field, or exploring the woodland stream, every day brings a new adventure.

While here on vacation be sure to explore the stream that meanders through the grounds as it makes it way towards the lake. This is a perfect adventure for anyone that enjoys the solitude of the woods. There are lots of little swirls and pools or kids to float sticks and toys. Wildlife and bird enthusiasts will be delighted by our blue bird trail and the tremendous variety of species that abound.

Favorite evening vacation pastimes include watching sunsets and building campfires in the beach fire pit. Relaxing around the campfire, making s'mores for the kids and enjoying a glass of wine is a perfect way to end the day.
