Charming Bright Cottage on Silver Sands Beach

My family got away for Mother’s Day. The location was excellent and it was very easy to check in. Once I learned that this is the home of the people were renting it out, everything made more sense. I wish we had brought beach towels with us. We were able to hear the beach and enjoy it from our bedrooms and the deck. The ocean view was lovely, we were close to an amazing Greek restaurant and a Audubon place nearby. Thank you for hosting us!

Great location for our family for a Yale graduation weekend. Deck and charcoal grill were perfect for 2 cookouts. Plumbing needs updating. Less clutter suggested.

Can’t beat the location and house has everything you need.

We enjoyed our stay

The view and the location on the water was exactly what we were looking for.

This is our second time staying in this lovely spot and the location, views, and cozy house made our Thanksgiving truly wonderful!!

Beautiful views and close to a lot of things to do. House suited our needs for a good price.

This house was so cluttered with a million things it felt claustrophobic. The beds were extremely uncomfortable. The owner only provided sheets for one bed, and 2 towels and hand towels for the bath. Everything made us feel like like it wasn't our place to be there, as if we were intruders. The porch was large and right on the beach. It was a great spot. If only we could've stayed outside the whole time. There is no A/C, so if it gets hot, the rooms upstairs are sweltering. Some of the window screens had holes, so I didn't open them for fear of mosquitoes. The TV was only Apple TV and the owner couldn't explain how to work it. I couldn't even turn it on. While she genuinely seemed to want us to enjoy ourselves, I did not complain directly to her because there was really nothing she could do about it. It's a very old house/camp on the beach. If you feel like roughing it and paying top dollar--go for it! The walks on the beach at low tide were fantastic! I will think twice before using VRBO again.

My girl friends and I stayed at this lovely property for the weekend. It’s a beautiful location, the Silver Sands Beach nearby, and of course the private beach spot in back of the house. Silver Sands has great views and walking (board walk around the beach with pleasant views of water & marsh). The house is close to New Haven—lots to do nearby! Large porch at the house with amazing views (perfect for our photos!!) Irina was sweet and helpful in offering ideas for activities! Friendly neighbors as well. The house is spacious, clean, and well-equipped with kitchen appliances. All in all—amazing, rejuvenating experience.

From the moment we stepped in we felt like this was our home away from home . Clean, well stocked kitchen cabinets, lots of room, great view, great hiking, across the street from a Greek restaurant with delicious food and a kind hostess.
