We had a wonderful Thanksgiving week staying at this charming home. It had plenty of room and the main living area and kitchen with water view was perfect. The history of the community and house added to the feel of a beloved home - with all the comforts of today. Communication with the owner was kind, caring, and much appreciated since we were arriving from California. A relaxing and delightful location.
Great time had by all! It appealed to ages 4 to 70 (our infants had a great time too but can’t really give an opinion yet :) ). Melissa was helpful and easy to communicate with, the property was outstanding with plenty to do, and location can’t be beat between marina and beach and close to great food. Would definitely stay again.
Spacious, sunny kitchen with scenic views of salt pond, flowers and wildlife. Easy access from marina for 16 ft boat at this house dock. Two entertainment centers spaced apart gave different viewing options. Comfortable beds in each bedroom. Lots of room for my entire family. Our stay was first rate! The hawks nest is a very special place which was difficult to leave. Thank you for sharing it with us!
Location, Location, Location! The house is literally 5 minutes from the highway and you would never know it once on site. The tranquility and privacy of the home were some of the best I have experienced in my many rentals over the years. The kitchen was beautiful and well appointed, having 3 full bathrooms was a plus and overall there was enough space for 10 of us to not feel crowded with one another. Let's not forget the incredible views, good fishing and the FREE golf course just steps from the front door. Truly a unique property that I do hope to be back to in the future.
We had a fabulous time at this property. We spent a huge number of hours just being on the patio and watching and hearing birds. The house was very well kept. WE loved the tennis courts across the way. We had quite an age range but everyone ended up being very happy. Many thanks to Melissa who was an outstanding hostess.
This property was amazing AND exactly as portrayed. It's an older but well cared for home with lots of updates to the kitchen and bathrooms. For us, 3 couples with some visiting adult children, it was perfect. The bedrooms are set up in wings, each with its own bathroom. Eat in kitchen and dining area were very spacious and the back deck which is located off of both, had nice seating for eating also. We brought our boat with us so the dock was very handy for clamming in Ninigret Pond.
We had a wonderful time the house was so comfortable it was great weather it was beautiful our family had a great time we love staying there we definitely would stay again
Although my family stayed in this home in October, it is obviously a perfect place for a summer vacation. Located on Ninigret Pond (actually an inlet), just off Route 1, with a dock in a private housing area, the view from the deck is gorgeous, and the area peaceful. The house has everything you need to cook for a large group, including multiple ovens, a great outdoor grill, and more plates, silverware and pots than you'll ever need, including, of course, a lobster pot. The beds were wonderfully comfortable, and the loft would be perfect for kids. The old, rambling house has been added to over the years, and there are pictures and decorations from the family history. My niece commented that it was like staying in a family home. Plenty of room for a large group to eat and cook together. If you have a rainy day, there are puzzles and games to keep everyone occupied. When you arrive, be sure to take inventory, as we purchased some things that were already there (paper plates, cutlery, etc.). This is a use one, leave one home, which is perfect when you only need a bit of mayo or a couple tablespoons of olive oil. There weren't a lot of spices, but most everything we needed was on hand. Melissa was a great host, responding to all my questions promptly, and checking up to make sure we had everything we needed. Be aware you need to book WAY in advance if you want a summer spot.
Beautiful, peaceful setting. Nice bedroom and bathroom layout for a large group. Excellent hostess.
The layout of the house was ideal for our group of extended family and one young child. The location near the South County attractions was ideal, and coming home each day to Ninigret pond and its amazing views and birds was perfect.
