Host was very attentive and gracious. They left plenty of amenities for us and made the house feel very warm and inviting. Our family had a great time! We had plenty of space to play board games, watch tv, play foosball, or just lounge around. Everything was very clean, which was important for our family who has a lot of allergies. Do not hesitate to book your stay here!

Perfect stay

We loved our stay at this house! It had the perfect amount of space for two families to relax and enjoy time together. Both the indoor and outdoor areas were spacious and comfortable—great for meals, games, and lounging. The upstairs shower was a favorite—so spacious and refreshing! Communication with the host was great, making everything easy and stress-free. We’d absolutely stay here again!

Lauren and her companions demonstrated exemplary behavior as guests, showcasing remarkable respect and courtesy while maintaining seamless communication throughout their visit. They exercised exceptional care in maintaining our residence, leaving it in pristine condition. We would be delighted to welcome them again and wholeheartedly endorse her to fellow Airbnb hosts. Unfortunately Vrbo didn't cooperate with your request and consent of upgrading your review to the 5 stars. Either way I appreciate your support and we can't wait to have you back.

Excellent Stay!

The house was wonderful for a group of friends who were in town for the Jane Lloyd Fund Clambake! The location was beautiful and the house was in perfect condition. The check-in process was easy and Andrea was great at communicating. She even provided us with firewood so that we could use the fire pit out back. Our stay was excellent and I would definitely consider staying again next year!

I went with my family for the wknd and we had an amazing time. There was so much space throughout the house. Everything we needed was there.

Connecticut Weekend

We LOVED our stay at this property! It was IMMACULATE!! It’s spacious, comfortable and homey. Our hostess, Andrea, was extremely responsive to any questions we had. We loved walking “down the road” from the property to visit the farms and the winery! Perfect for a family with adult members ( the kitchen set up is AMAZING!! A cook’s delight!) and children as well! The kids have their own playground! Andrea deserves a 10- she’s put a LOT of love and attention into her house.
