Perfect for our family of 7 adults and a small dog. Beautifully renovated kitchen and 3 full bathrooms. Guest house also great for remote-working couple. Grounds, pool and landscaping beautifully manicured: appears right out of a magazine. Location ideal for walking to village, restaurants and beach. Rose was responsive to all questions and a lovely host!

Wonderful home

We really enjoyed our Easter get together at this lovely home. The hosts were extremely helpful and accommodating. The location is A+, walk to town and just a short drive to the beach. The home is beautifully appointed and beds very comfortable. The outside offers many areas to congregate, and when the sun was out, we really enjoyed them.

Great house, great pool! Our 3 generation family had a fabulous week here. Kids (ages 3-6) were in the pool several times a day. Grandparents had our private hide-a-way in the cottage. Visited the Beardsley Zoo and the Stamford Science Center. Walked down for gelato (YUM!) and spent an afternoon at the beach.

Summer Vacation in Fairfield

Roisin and Tom were wonderful hosts and the house and property were outstanding having all the amenities of home and not lacking in anything. We stayed here with our adult children their spouses, and all the grandkids and there was plenty of room for everyone. The pool was a huge plus for the little ones and a welcome retreat from the hot July weather. We only went to the beach once as the pool was so nice to spend the day at. We would highly recommend this property for your large family vacation.

Our hosts were gracious and super responsive from the date of our reservation through to a farewell. Their home is absolutely beautiful and so well appointed. We enjoyed an extra long weekend and their yard is splendid. Treat yourself and experience this Fairfield, CT beauty with friends and family! Thanks for hosting us for a very memorable weekend with college friends celebrating 40 years of friendship while also making new memories and sharing lots of laughs.

My husband, teen daughter, and four other family members stayed at this wonderful home, for my sisters Celebration of Life. Everything was perfect from the minute my husband and I arrived. The owners were INCREDIBLE with communication, they left the pool open heated for the weekend we stayed in October. The house was fully stocked in every way possible. It was so comfortable and SO much room! It was so perfect!

Wonderful stay!

My family and I were in town for my cousins wedding which took place on the beach very close to this lovely home. The house was perfect for us! Very clean, spacious, and convenient to the wedding venue and to town. We took walks each morning in the neighborhood and enjoyed seeing all the fall decorations. It was also a short walk to town which was nice for those who wanted to pick up some things or grab a bite to eat. Rose was a terrific host! I would highly recommend this property and hope to visit again sometime. Thank you, Rose!

Absolutely GREAT

Stayed for 3 nights for my son's graduation from Sacred Heart. The location to SHU and the Hartford Amphitheater where the graduation was perfect. Also, the amenities, the spaciousness of the house and the backyard were all great. Communicating with the host was also great. I asked for an earlier check in time and it wasn't an issue. Highly recommend for a family gathering.

Rose was amazing with the best communication I have experienced with a VRBO host. The house was perfect for our family gathering with the pool and large TV for World Cup games during the day and fire pit at night. The Smores box was a greatly appreciated bonus. Being walking distance to the beach, quaint downtown and the train station for our day trip to NYC made the trip even better. We could not have asked for a better vacation home.

Everything was blooming and the warm weather granted as a nice day at the pool. The location was perfect with very short rides to the center of town and to the beach.

Hot water

We ran out of hot water several times and only after 2 people had taken showers. There was only a trickle of hot water from spigot in the bathroom attached to the bedroom to the left at the top of the stairs. This was constant. Otherwise a very nice house.

Great place to book in Fairfield

Booked the house for four nights with my three siblings for a family event in our hometown. House was perfect for us. Very clean, very comfortable and very well kitted out. Location is great, two minute walk to the middle of Fairfield, ten minutes to Penfield beach. Owner and the property manager were great to work with. House is usually booked, and after staying there we can totally see why.
