Spectacular Home in Newtown

My family and I spend the most wonderful four days at this property. The home and the grounds are beautiful and impeccably maintained. The kitchen is one of the best appointed for a rental property I have ever experienced. And the hosts were A++ responsive and made our stay enjoyable and seamless.

Great stay!

My family stayed at this house and had a great time! Last summer we came for a long weekend. This year we extended our stay to 10 days. The house is modern, well designed, and very functional. The backyard is huge, the landscaping is beautiful and the pool/hot tub is a delight. We grilled on the porch and roasted marshmallows every night. Tony and Jenna were super helpful getting us set up and addressing any questions that came up. We definitely plan to come back next summer!

Family weekend

We have family from multiple states meet at least yearly for a long weekend (ages 9-75). This is one of the most beautiful and well-stocked homes we have chosen. We love to cook most meals and the kitchen had everything we needed. Plenty of games and things to do (playground, air hockey, cards/games, quiet space for reading, etc.). Of note, we have a special needs child who had a (not unexpected) emergency while there - the EMS response was phenomenal. Highly recommend this property. Quiet residential neighborhood and the leaves this time of year were amazing. Outstanding communication with property management company as well!
