Great location and beach

We weren't thrilled with the bedding and linens and ants. Was told there was a wagon for Beach stuff and a drying rack. Well the wagon didn't roll and the drying rack could hold one towel, so not the most helpful for a family of four at the beach. There was also mold on the wall in the bedroom with the bunk beds, where my son was sleeping all week.

Fantastic location!

Kathy’s house is in an amazing location within a charming and quiet neighborhood, with a very easy walk to the beach. The house was extremely clean, possibly the cleanest rental house I have stayed in. Check in was very easy. Good size house for our small family. Only one thing to note is that there is no AC, so if it is going to be very hot when you’re there you may want to bring a few additional fans (some fans are provided).

Cozy and Affordable

Very cozy and affordable cottage with very easy access to quiet beach down the street. We stayed a week for a family beach vacation. Close to town and local attractions. Outdoor shower helped keep the sand at bay after a long day of beach activity. Some board games and things to do, but if you have very small kids, bring toys for them. Pack n play fit comfortably in the master bedroom if thats a concern for you. They have a smart TV so we were able to log in to all of our favorite steaming services (Amazon, netflix and Disney+) so make sure to bring your passwords with you. Thank you again Kathy, for a wonderful week.

Beautiful Beach House

We had a fabulous stay at this lovely Niantic beach house. It was the perfect tranquil little getaway. The town was perfect. It had several great restaurants to choose from. The nearby beaches were glorious and easily accessible. We had an amazing time on our family vacation.

Perfect Beach getaway

Just a few houses down from the private beach (which we had to ourselves all week). Nice short walk, perfect when you have little ones. The beach was also perfect for our 2 year old, or if you just want a quiet place to relax and swim to cool off. (Water shoes came in handy for the rocks). The Property was clean and well maintained, exactly as described and pictured. The Owner was very accommodating, friendly and easily accessible at all times. We would definitely stay here again. The only thing we could have used was and Air Conditioner for sleeping as we got caught in a heat wave; But there were plenty of fans provided!
