    Great stay! Host even had coffee and tea available for us. Loved sitting on the balcony listening to the ocean with coffee to start the day and a glass of wine to end it! Steps to the beach access. The community activity outside was fabulous. Lots of walking, plenty of dog walkers, Sandpiper restaurant within two blocks, peaceful area and easy access to the crazy highway and downtown! Try the Lobster Shack food! It’s DELICIOUS especially the Seafood Bisque. We would definitely stay here again. Loved every minute!

    This home is about 100ft. from a private beach and located in a quiet family neighborhood. The living room furniture and the beds were very comfortable. One bedroom has access to a small deck, which is a great spot for morning coffee or relaxing in the evenings. The owner kept in contact and provided helpful information. The house was spotless and had plenty of towels. The kitchen is big and was fully stocked. The Sandpiper Restaurant is two blocks away, and their food is delicious. I would definitely stay here again.

    My daughter was on her college spring break, so the wife an I decided to visit her, and we took three relaxing days ilout of our busy week in this well appointed beach cabin. It's a 100 year old cabin, that has been upgraded and updated but keeps a lot of the original cabin charm. Host has thoughtfully stocked just about all you will need. The single bathroom is upstairs, the floors creak a bit as an old house should, but the lighting, heat and plumbing is all modern and made us quite comfortable on the warm days as well as the cold ones. We hoped for a relaxing stay and found it here. We will very likely return next year.

    We rented this property from Friday to Sunday for a fun getaway to visit our favorite New Haven pizza spots. The location is perfect - not too far from downtown but a nice, relaxing respite outside the city. The house was well stocked, very clean and cozy! Karen is an excellent hostess. We would love to visit again and recommend this rental to others!

    The house worked perfectly for 4 adults. Karen was excellent to work with. 10 minute drive to New Haven.

    This was our second stay with Karen. Outstanding hostess who is meticulous. So many good things to say. Private beach is across the street. Nobody but you. We actually prefer the public beach 200 yards down the road. Even though its a public beach, there's fewer than 100 people there. Well stocked kitchen, comfortable beds and living space. Most likely will rebook again for next summer! Thanks ?

    This was the cutest house to spend a weekend at. The kitchen had all the utensils and condiments we needed, and the living room was a really cozy place to hang out. The neighborhood was great to walk around and the beach was very close and accessible. Hoping to go back soon!
