Great place to stay, it was perfect for 2! And The host went over and beyond.. went out and bought a blender once we were there, since I needed one and let us use his grill when we had a lot to cook at once for my sons friends!

This is a wonderful 2 bedroom cottage in a lovely town . Close to everything! We were there early December so there were lots of beautiful sights. Just note the stairs to bedrooms were tricky.Joel, the owner was super responsive and worked hard to accommodate us when we had extra needs!

We stayed for a short visit and had everything that we needed. It’s a cute old house with a very comfy bed and living room. The kitchen had whatever we needed and there were various ways to heat the house. The hosts were very sweet. The bedrooms are upstairs and if you have any mobility issues- this may not be the place for you. We would stay again!

Good place in a nice area, good beach, nice owners with minimal pots and pans for cooking on a surprisingly busy (in August) and noisy street given the low speed limit and stop sign. We're full time travelers

We needed a short stay away from home, and Joel's property was a great option for us! We had everything we needed and enjoyed our stay!

Loved my stay at this cottage! Plenty of space, probably too much space for just me :) Wonderful little touches such as fresh filtered water, bottle of wine etc. Super convenient to the best little beach, which was what I was looking for. Definitely on a busy street though. That would be the only potential down side.

Living room was a little tight for 4 adults, but we definitely made it work. We were in town for mom's 80th birthday, and this home was within 2 miles. We would absolutely stay here again.

The cottage was sweet and clean. The stairs are very steep and the street noisy. The bathroom door sticks and is noisy when it Is opened from the inside. Only one small cookie sheet. No real baking supplies like pie pans and rolling pin for example. No guest parking which was a bit of a problem at first for family who wanted to visit with us. Owner lives next door and was responsive to our questions.

This was the cutest little cottage! Just right for my wife and I and our two dogs. The inside was very charming and it was stocked with everything we needed. We especially loved the location as it was close to everything and convenient for our family we visited close by. We liked that it had a small fenced yard out back for the dogs and there was also a fenced dog park nearby. The hosts were very accommodating and answered any questions we had. We would definitely stay here on our next trip to the area. Thank you again for a wonderful stay!

This was a very convenient area and cute area of CT. The wrap around gated porch was particularly accommodating for our dogs! Cottage was very clean and a very comfortable mattress on 4 poster bed. New A/C was great during a heat wave, also has stackable W/D. Joel and his wife were very helpful and take great pride in renting their cottage to others.

This is the cutest place. We loved sitting on the porch and relaxing. The host went above and beyond when we locked the keys in the car on the way to my sons wedding. The home was comfortable and warm. We will come back

We booked this cottage/small house as an alternative to the much more expensive New Haven hotel options in mid-October. It worked out great! fifteen minutes from downtown New Haven, full kitchen, nice porch, cozy living room/sitting area. Nice!

I loved this experience. My sister and I wanted a quick getaway from city life. Within 2 hours we were transported to such a quaint home -- so comfortable, clean and cozy. I am still missing the wrap around porch. The home is so close to so many little towns.. for antiquing and and good food! So close to the coast -- and the tour of Thimble Islands! Wow! Our host gave us a tip for the MOST glorious beach! Such a memorable time. I We plan to book again ! Soon!

Nice neighborhood but busy location right near a stop sign locals fly through. Driveway extremely tough only access on main road owner requests park close to house to give him access to his house next door and has some areas blocked with garbage cans which makes more than one car visiting impossible.I had to confirm to the owner we needed the second bed made up even though I clearly booked for 2 adults 2 kids so needed all 3 beds. The four poster in the master creaks every time you move and the guest room second bed is more of a temporary cot than a bed, bedrooms very tight. Downstairs is better with enough space for 4 Electricity went off when family was getting ready for my wedding and owner came over to reset / restart it which was good I booked it for family as it was my wedding that weekend and noticed a mark on the counter and a tray of water in the oven on arrival that we thought was very strange , my family forgot to take a picture as requested and busy with my wedding I forgot to mention to the owner. We were charged for damages we did not do and I am not happy with the owners insistence he checked the property before we arrived as he clearly did not. I have never had less than a great review left or received and am disappointed .
