Fishing Charter
I and a group of friends stayed at Scott and Mary-Jo's VRBO for a fishing charter we had in Old Saybrook. We were very satisfied with our stay and the VRBO itself. They even made us homemade banana bread! Would highly recommend this VRBO.

comfy & cozy
The cottage was quite wonderful with a large kitchen and comfy porched living-room. Scott was very quick regarding any communication. The only thing in the description that I would add is that " you'll need to bring your own towels and bed linens". It wasn't a problem, but our airplane carry-on bags only were already packed. We made our adjustments and ended up checking a bag, no worries. Just a thought. We thoroughly enjoyed its quiet and relaxing location.

Peaceful and Relaxing
The quiet friendly community, the short walk to the ocean, the peaceful back yard that looked on to the marsh and tidal river, the sight of boats, the walks on the nearby sand bars, the comfortable and well stocked cottage, and the accommodating hosts are all great reasons to recommend this cottage as a great place to stay near Old Saybrook.
