First time and great experience!

Everything was very clean. Better then I expected. Small beach nearby. But larger beach was a few minutes away by car. Over all great weekend.

Cute cottage!

Super neat spot on the CT shoreline, close to lots of indie restaurants. The house is neat, clean and organized. The check in was sent well in advance and was very straightforward. All new appliances. And, best of all, they left a box of coffee singles, which was perfect as we rolled in late and didn’t have time to go shopping ☺️.

Family Get Together

The house was perfect for my needs. The remodel is looking great. Everything was new and clean. The sun\reading\wildlife viewing room was a bonus. Did not expect the variety of wildlife. Love the privacy and the quietness. Much different than down town New Haven. A very good experience. Would have been different if the upstairs was occupied.

Pleasant getaway weekend

This home is in a lovely location, near small beaches, and within a short drive to larger beaches. The town (central green) has much to offer as well. There are several comfy places at the house to settle in with a good book or a board game and the kitchen is well equipped. We loved the many visits from the local bunnies.
