Going on a vacation in New England is always a great opportunity to escape the stress and grind of daily life and a real chance to get away and relax.

And because many of us only get a few chances to do that, you want to make sure you pick the best possible place.

So how about one of VRBO's Vacation Rentals of the Year for 2024? Turns out, only one New England location made the list.

The standout home in Winchendon, Massachusetts, is right on Lake Monomonac with its own private beach and dock, according to the VRBO listing.

The spot has 3 bedrooms, but it is said to sleep 14 people with some bed options in the multiple living rooms as well.

Plus, this place has three floors of fun, a large game room, a sauna, and kayaks and paddleboards you can take out on the lake.

Just note that no pets are allowed here, so you'll have to leave Fido at home for this vacation.

That said, all the reviews listed on VRBO give this an excellent 10 out of 10 rating.

Here's one of the reviews:

"This was the most beautiful lakehouse! The water surrounded the property on almost every side. It jutted out on a peninsula. The beach was so large, and the inside of the house was STUNNING! I could not have loved our stay anymore!"

As for the cost? On average, per the listing, you'll have to shell out about $832 per night. And the more family and friends you bring the better you can divide the cost, right?

Let's take a look at what could be your next vacation spot and what you might even name your own vacation rental of the year.
