My family and I spent a week here in July, 2011. There were five adults and two 18-month-olds. The house was great, roomy and sunny, and spotlessly clean. We had dinner on the deck every night and made good use of both the gas and charcoal grills. We loved that the house has a washer and dryer, especially since we were there with little ones. The outdoor shower was great, too. We spent most of our time at the "sand bar beach" where the water was calm enough for the little ones to play. It was never crowded and we enjoyed every minute of it. We took a couple of trips, one into Niantic to walk on the boardwalk and check out some shops and restaurants, and another to Saybrook to visit the farmer's market and shops there. We even managed to squeeze in a trip to the Westbrook shopping center. We took walks around the neighborhood every day AND we were the Ice Cream Man's best customers!! This was the perfect place for my family and I to enjoy some wonderful, relaxing time together.
Recommended for:Age 55+, girls getaway, families with young children, romantic getaway.
