Holiday rentals with lake access in Worcester County

This was the PERFECT weekend escape. My boyfriend and I work high stress jobs in the cities and this little place and the beautiful surroundings was the perfect way to relax and get some space from the hustle and bustle.

Memorial Day weekend was cloudy, cool and windy, so my husband, elderly mother and I were especially pleased to have a nicely appointed and welcoming home base for hanging out. From a large screen TV down to the smallest of decorative details, Nicole has thought of everything to make for a relaxing stay. Having rented other places, I particularly appreciated spotless cookware, new bath towels, comfortable beds, and to top it all off an espresso machine! My tea drinking husband kept the electric tea kettle warm all morning. All this and a very nice, peaceful water view with great bird watching. We look forward to returning.

Beautiful lakefront home. Perfect for a weekend getaway to celebrate our son’s birthday. The home was clean and cozy with views of the sunset every evening. Our kids really enjoyed fishing from the dock and from the kayaks that were provided for guest use. Thank you for sharing your home!

What a gem of a place! Perfectly located to our daughter’s boarding school. We spent both parent’s weekends and graduation here, staying with multi-generations of our family. It has enough space in the great room for a small gathering. Just a wonderful spot that we highly recommend.

We had a great stay at the lake house! It is in a great location--only 3-4 minutes from good restaurants. It's definitely set up well for families and my kids loved playing outside on the volleyball court. It has beautiful views from many rooms in the house because it is on a promontory on the lake. I highly recommend this place!

We had a great time throughout our eight days there. The home is located on a small quite road, and the lake is beautiful. We took morning walks down to the lake and along the road. The local residents are friendly. The house contains all of the necessary supplies and is roomy and tidy. The widows show the scenic views from each part of the house. Duc and Ian were really helpful and quick to respond. The TV is by streaming through an electronic device. We cooked full meals in the kitchen each day. The appliances and the heating system in the home worked well. The site is close to the town center. Driving in the area is easy, and there are numerous local businesses. We look forward to returning to this location in the future.

This was our second time to stay. It had a gorgeous view surrounded by beautiful trees. It was so peaceful and relaxing with everything we needed. James is so easy to work with and very responsive. Highly recommended!

This house on a large pond is a great find! Water views are stellar all day. The driveway has a steep angle but is not a challenge. As with many houses, it has its unique quirks, but the positives are very high. The kitchen is extremely well stocked for cooking or just heat & serve. The furniture is comfortable and functional. We travel for freshwater fishing. With the rowboat, my husband caught & released over 20 fish - all large and small mouth bass. Thank you for sharing your house with us.

Very clean and comfortable little space. Convenient location for shopping and restaurants. Perfect for a short stay in the Worcester area. Louisa was very helpful to us during our stay!

We really enjoyed our stay at the lake house. Beautiful property, peaceful and right on the lake. Brittni was very responsive and the instructions for check in and check out were easy to follow. Would definitely stay again.

We had such an excellent stay! The apartment is even better than the photos showed--the view of the lake is beautiful. There are several great hikes in the area. The hosts were responsive and communicative. They even offered the loan of their paddle boat. All in all, I highly recommend staying there.

A nice apartment unit located above the host's house, I believe. A tad difficult to find at first - perhaps more detailed description could be helpful - but we arrived in the dark, so that might have made it harder. Everything you need for a nice stay. Across the street from the lake (not quite a lake view, but close!). Overall pleasant stay!

This was my second stay at Jessica's wonderful retreat space. This time, I was in town with 2 companions for my son's graduation from Clark University in Worcester. The apt. was perfect for this purpose, as it was for my first stay. This place is an oasis away, but very convenient to Worcester, restaurants, and cultural activities of downtown. For those who like outdoor recreation, there's a lake and a fabulous disc golf course nearby. If you wanted, you could just stay on site. Jessica's grounds are lovely--beautiful, well-tended gardens, places to sit and reflect in nature. The apartment is very comfortable for a good night's sleep, and it includes an inviting common space for guests to spend time together (playing one of the board games, or if one must watch TV it's there, too, but hidden from view if you don't want it as a focal point). A great place for a quiet retreat, or for families. Plus, Jessica is always gracious, helpful, goes above and beyond. You won't regret booking!

It was our first time using air b & b and it was so easy. The place was nice, easy to access and it was great to have a parking spot. The location felt safe and was quiet. Vanuza was very responsive to our questions. We would recommend for a nice place to stay in Worcester.

The house was comfy. Great places to eat within walking distance. The view, absolutely beautiful. If you are looking for a place to get away and relax, this is the place.

The suite was well-equipped and very clean. The kitchen had everything needed for cooking, and having laundry facilities was a big plus. The location is very convenient — within walking distance to supermarkets, restaurants, and a beautiful pond with walking trails. Highly recommended!

This place was everything it was said to be. it was clean and very cozy. Kyle had a booklet with useful information about the cottage, restaurants and local attractions.

I am beyond impressed with this location. Very appreciative of the opportunity to stay here. I have nothing but great memories now thanks to Joey. Hope to possibly come back again!

Was a great stay for my family and I.

Great Lake side cottage charm. Fully stocked kitchen. Lots of fun water toys to use. Great views and peaceful!

By far one of the best places we have stayed at for using AirBnb. I would highly recommend this place to anyone visiting the area. One of the best places we have stayed at! Look forward to staying again in future!

Lovely rustic cottage on a picture perfect lake. Dawn was a wonderful host and made sure we had everything we needed to enjoy our stay. Will stay again!

This was the perfect spot for our mini vacation with our adult son and dog. The house was adorable and comfortable...the beds were especially comfy. The fenced in patio area and sun porch was so relaxing and although no one actually slept on it, the daybed was very comfortable as well. We enjoyed our day trip to Boston and multiple trips to Treehouse Brewery. Gwen's communication was awesome...such a terrific host! Hoping to stay again.

What an amazing stay! The place had great games and the porch was such a treat. The view from the fire pit was so relaxing and we enjoyed toasting smores while overlooking the lake. We ended up taking the folding chairs and playing catch by the lake, which was only a short walk away. Robert was responsive when we asked where to get firewood. We also enjoyed the Sturbridge coffee house and Maine Lobster (we liked it so much, we went twice)! We ended up going to the farmers market and flea market, which were great finds. Overall, a great stay with the kitchen utensils, bathroom necessities that you’d need. Close by the lake and a great neighborhood!
