We had to come to town for a family funeral and couldn’t have found a better place to land than this home. It was beautiful and relaxing during a challenging time and allowed our family and dogs to all be together. Lots of parking, huge yard, well stocked and amazing location.

A Great Stay in CT

We had a great time staying here this spring. We were impressed with the extra amenities like the book on good places to go and the propane fire pit out back, which we enjoyed. The views from the front porch were spectacular and we thoroughly enjoyed our stay!

An esthetic mixture of new and old, this house was comfortable and clean with a spectacular view. I especially enjoyed sitting in the front sunroom looking out at the gorgeous sunsets. The owners leave nothing for want and you can tell they really care about their guests’ comfort.

Perfect Weekend Getaway

This was a perfect house for our weekend getaway. The sunroom overlooking the water was by far our favorite room. Being able to disconnect while enjoying a beautiful view was exactly what we needed. Lynda is a great host and was gracious enough to allow us a slightly later check out to accommodate our travel plans home. We would definitely stay here again!

Seaside Retreat

Excellent. We had a fabulous time at this cozy cottage. The owners have provided every amenity! The cottage has been lovingly remodeled and cared for. Beautifully decorated and great location. We would love to come back. Only negative is that it took us 8 hours from Maryland but that’s not the owners fault it’s traffic!!! You will love this place !!

New Haven stay

We had the most amazing stay. The home was meticulously clean and exceeded our expectations!!! Lynda was a pleasure and there was a binder with every detail from restaurants, attractions, beaches, and many other things. The location was perfect for us. The sunset view from the second level deck was breathtaking. We absolutely will be coming back!

The property is clean and well maintained. The pictures are accurate as is the description. It was a self contained oasis for the family and enjoyed by all.

We had a nice time at the house. The hosts thought of everything to make guests feel comfortable, with plenty of dishes and supplies and nice touches like Nespresso pods, wireless chargers, and Roku TVs all over the house.We had a problem with the water when we arrived but the hosts and manager were very responsive and we got it figured out very quickly.

We loved this beautiful house across the street from the ocean which offered lovely sunset views from the upper deck. The house was immaculate and had plenty of space for the two of us.

We rented this property for a family of four to celebrate our son’s college graduation. The location was nice to watch the water but it’s on a very busy road with lots of traffic. We had a few issues with the house and most were fixed in a timely manner. House was clean and well appointed.

Exceptional Value, Unbeatable Location

Wonderful property including so many amenities it's just shy of an "all-inclusive". Conveniently located nearby shops, safe neighborhoods for walking and cycling, or just enjoying the sound view from the second floor vista. The stairs to the bedrooms are steep so this might be a consideration for small children or those with mobility challenges. Quaintly decorated, there are even cozy blankets for enjoying the back patio and fireplace... but this gem also includes a lot of modern conveniences like Bluetooth speakers and charging stations. Plenty of parking, and only 12 minutes from University of New Haven, we will definitely stay there again!

Beautiful Home

Spent the week with my parents. Home was immaculate and well appointed. The views from the 2nd floor deck and from the sun room were amazing. We wanted for nothing during our stay. The dog loved the backyard, and having the gate to close the driveway made it easy to let her out off leash. The cat loved the sun room window ledge. We were all very comfortable.
