Why This Estate Deserves a Spot on Your Bucket List

Boston’s high-end summer rentals often orbit Cape Cod or the Vineyard, but this estate rewrites the narrative. Mornings start with matcha on a floating dock as mist lifts off placid water; afternoons unfold on lake toys or in the sun-shelf pool; evenings crescendo with chef-seared scallops served under café lights strung between maples. The proximity to world-class museums, stadium concerts, and three-Michelin-star dining in town elevates the address beyond mere lake house—placing it firmly among $5,000-a-night luxury vacation rentals worthy of any jet-setter’s lineup of exclusive vacation homes.
