Quiet Alternative to Coastal Towns

An elderly relative suggested that we meet in Mystic, but we suggested that Stonington would be a quieter place for a CT coastal stay. This was a great find. The rental was roomy, convenient, and well supplied. We brought two cars and didn't have any trouble finding nearby street parking in April. Our host was prompt answering pre-booking inquiries as well as the check-in procedures. If we go back to the CT coast, we will definitely check to see if this property is available.

Thanksgiving Stay

My family and I enjoyed our stay! Beautiful location! Walking distance to everything. The only downfall was that the pull out couch was not comfortable. We would stay again!

Girls Weekend

I stayed at this lovely property for a girls’ weekend with myself, my 2 years old daughter, and two of my friends. The house was so spacious and charming! I loved the old windows! It was local to so many wonderful places (ice cream, winery, restaurants, a fun farmers market, Westerly, RI, and more!) the host was very accommodating when we asked if we could check in early. 10/10 would go back again!

About the host

Hosted by Bennett Brissette

Born and raised in Stonington, I've been traveling the world for the past 10 years as an engineer on private yachts. I've seen some amazing places, but i always return home to Stonington. In my spare time, i purchased this home in 2017 as a fun renovation project. Some would have said to tear it down and start new, but I've always loved the history and uniqueness of old houses so my dad and I completely renovated it over a year and a half, turning it into what it is today. I'm proud of our work, and excited to share it with you.

Why they chose this property

The boro is an amazing place filled with history and character. The perfect combination of being walking distance to restaurants, parks, the beach, and marinas, while still feeling like you have your own space to retreat to. Many of the houses in the area are private seasonal residences so it never feels overcrowded.
