    Just what we needed - great communication!

    My fiance and I needed a place to stay in the area to support a sick family member and Charles’s place was perfect. We were able to come with our dogs and were a short walk from the beach (just down the street). The house was cozy, enough space with 2 full baths and within our price range and Charles kept in contact assuring we were comfortable. Would stay again! Thanks again to Charles and his family.

    Beautiful, comfortable home

    Thank you for sharing your lovely home. I loved having so many windows making the living space bright and cheerful. It is beautifully furnished and the kitchen is updated with top quality appliances. Everything we needed was provided and your furniture and beds are extremely comfortable. Having 2 bathrooms with great showers are always a plus for us. We also loved having laundry onsite. The home is in a very nice, quiet neighborhood and the patio out front was private due to the landscaping. We don't frequent this area often, but if we did we would definitely stay again!!!

    Property was great for our stay. Revisits to former establishments. Seeing “old/former” friends and family. Culinary delight in and around Old Saybrook. Loved being near the beach. Great 2 weeks for us. Only disadvantage was night stands and bedtime lighting. We are readers in bed! And coffee drinkers in bed!!! But we made arrangements! Thank you, Charles and Carol. You are excellent hosts!

    Lovely, peaceful beach home for a family vacation

    Charlie and Carol were wonderful to us during our stay. Their beach home is a beautiful oasis located in a family friendly neighborhood within a charming town. Our dinners grilling and enjoying the patio are some of the best nights there. So much to see and do. Easy access to a quiet and peaceful beach. The tennis, basketball, golf and nearby mini golf had our family enjoying every moment. Feeling blessed to have found this gem and to have met Charlie and Carol.
