I'm generally not an "inn" person because they conjure up images of too much quaintness for my taste. However, the Inn at Pleasant Lake was a fantastic experience which was kind of like staying in someone's home without having to worry about picking up after yourself. The inn is extremely clean (my number one priority when staying anywhere), and I... More

My wife and I booked the inn on the internet and found it to be exactly as described! We spent two nights there, mid-week during the first week of May. The inn is a top-notch place to stay at any time of the year. The rooms were immaculate, the bed was comfortable, and the food was excellent. During our stay,... More

My wife and I have stayed here twice, each time with one of our sons. This is an Inn you go to to get away from it all. Very quiet, very peaceful. Highlight of the stay is always the Dinner. Do yourself a favor and make a reservation with your stay. Fine dining as good as you will have anywhere... More

We stayed here on Valentine's day this year, and enjoyed the best 6 course dinner ever! As many of the other reviews state, Brian is one fabulous chef, and the dinner that he prepared on Valentine's Day exceeded his terrific reputation. It was simply amazing. We also thoroughly enjoyed the suite that we stayed in that evening. The room was... More

Thank you for taking time to write a review for the Inn. I love that you visited over Valentine's day. The Valentine's menu is generally my favorite to create. We infuse the idea of heart designs throughout the menu. Adding the extra course, gives me a bit of artistic freedom to create new and interesting flavor combinations. Thank you for... More

We stayed at the Inn last weekend as part of a family reunion. Our room (Room 1) was very spacious, with a comfortable bed and a large bathroom complete with a jacuzzi tub. The Inn's common areas are very comfortable, with plenty of places to sit and relax spread over three rooms. We liked the fact that there were plenty... More

This is a lovely, comfortable inn overlooking Pleasant Lake, about 1.5 miles from downtown New London. I live within a half hour from New London, so don't have a reason to spend a night here. However, I attended a seminar for a day, and it included a 3-course lunch. Chef/owner Brian MacKenzie has done single-seating dinner presentations at the Inn,... More

A friend and I stayed for one night while attending Colby Sawyer's alumni weekend. We were welcomed by several friendly, smiling staff and shown to Room 12, a corner room with a lovely view of the lake and a huge, deep spa tub. You will find no knick-knacks in this Inn - beautifully appointed rooms. Dinner was sold out to... More

From the friendly greeting to the immaculate rooms and unbelievable food this is a great place to stay. We were in Suite #9 and the whole setup was perfect.
