Summary: Camp David is great and the host was awesome.

Summary: My fiancé (now husband) and I stayed with our Bridal Party at Camp David while getting married in Morris, CT. The accommodations were perfect for such an event! We rented 3 of David’s cottages, which all share the same property and are just steps from Bantam Lake. David was very laid back and great at communicating and accommodating several of our needs. He has all of the amenities necessary for a weekend getaway on the Lake including BBQ supplies and equipment for several different water activities. He has a personal handy man that was quick to respond to and resolve a couple of minor concerns. He also offered to help us unload any belongings. We’re so appreciative of David for providing such hospitality and the perfect accommodations for our wedding weekend! We have memories to last a lifetime. Highly recommend!

Summary: We had a wonderful time at Camp David! We've done a weekend with friends for years now and this was easily one of the best places we've stayed. We rented several of the houses and had plenty of space for our group to spread out. We spent our entire stay lakeside - hanging out, sitting by the firepit, swimming and grilling! David was easy to reach with any questions or concerns (even reset the wifi remotely one night). Only caveat for future guests to note is that there are multiple cottages on the property that can be rented by other guests. We had two different families stay in the unoccupied house during our stay, both were very friendly and we had no issues coexisting on the property.

Summary: We loved our stay at the lake house, Dave was a fantastic host!

Summary: When I booked this, I did see the other reviews...so I knew it was possible that there could be a parking problem, that noise *might* be a factor, and everything else that other reviewers said both positively and negatively. Our stay, like pretty much all vacations, had some great experiences, and some, shall we say, interesting experiences too. The Good: The house we had (Maplecrest, 1 of 3) was gigantic and spacious. While it had 7 bedrooms, they are very small, but each one has it's own air conditioner, so you can adjust the temperature to whatever you want- a huge plus. There were two bathrooms, very clean and modern. Also, the rooms were spotless (except for one, see below), and the screened in wrap-around porch was perfect for having breakfast/dinner with great views of the lake. Other great things included the dock area- one of the best around with kayaks/floats and we were easily able to tie up our pontoon boat we rented for the week. The whole beach-front and swimming area was wide open, and with two other families there, never felt crowded. Indeed, I would say it was *comfortably* crowded because we did talk and interact with them- they were really nice- yet far enough for no masks. The owner (David- lives on property with his family and children) is a fantastic communicator. While there was a glitch in our reservation (somehow the first night was double-booked), we were getting in late anyway, and we worked it out fairly with him. Finally, every night we built a campfire... you can either build one outside your cabin or at the fire-rings at the lake. David provides all of the matches, fire-starters, and wood (actually, really, really nice dry wood too!), so that was nice to end each day. David also checked in multiple times and asked how things were, he really cares about the guests' experiences. The Bad: OK, so there was a glitch in the reservation process, but David did work it out. When we arrived, we did find some 'natural' issues in the kitchen, including a dead mouse and non-functional oven (he said he was getting it fixed, we used the provided grill as an oven and it actually worked perfectly). And the rest of the kitchen was very adequately supplied. Some of the storm doors were really hard to close, but that with the oven should be easily fixed by the time whoever is reading this actually rents the place. Also, the trash area near the parking lot was over-flowing. That needs to be addressed. Overall 4.5!

Summary: Exactly what we needed for the 4th of july. Perfect relaxing lake vacation with great access to kayaks and water toys for kids.

Summary: We had our wedding at South Farms and were in search of a property (or properties) to accommodate us and our wedding party for the weekend. When we happened upon David's 3 properties, it was almost too good to be true. We rented all three because of their convenient location to each other and their proximity to South Farms, which was about a 7 minute drive from the properties. It definitely made it easier to not lose certain wandering groomsmen! It is a little bit difficult to locate the driveway to the properties. Just make sure to look for the Camp David sign above the hedges! There were a number of our guests that missed it the first time. Larger or more vibrant signage may have helped a bit. Also, note that parking can accommodate about 6 cars, so plan accordingly. And, don't be concerned by the first house you see upon arrival. This is not one of the houses for rent! Once you walk beyond the second set of hedges, the lake view was great! The fire pit was a perfect meet up spot for everyone at the end of day. If you are planning to have a fire for more than a couple of hours, just make sure to bring extra wood. The available kayaks and floating dock provided for hours of entertainment. The owner, David, is very eager to answer any questions you may have and is very hands-on with his properties. He will meet up with you to assist with check-in and show you around. However, it would be great if check-in / check-out / lock-up procedures were published online and in the welcome information packet because when things got a little hectic with the rehearsal and wedding prep, it would have been nice to have an easy reference to know what to do instead of having to get in contact with David. Also, just to note, there are a number of security cameras setup on the corners of every house. It made some people a little uncomfortable and was worth noting. Overall, a very good experience on a beautiful lakefront property. It made it very simple to have a centralized location for the day of pre-wedding prep (hair, makeup, getting ready). And, once the wedding was over, we had a day of peace and quiet to fully enjoy the lake.

Summary: Very nice and relaxing spot on the shore of Bantam Lake. Fishing & boating was a plus. Had a campfire on the shore every day. Owner was especially attentive and personable. WiFi was available but no cable or satellite TV.
