Lovely Spot!

We had a very nice few days with our pup in this clean and comfortable spot. It was nicely appointed and very cozy. It was so nice to look out on the water and relax. Great area to get some good walks in, too. The extra treat was the harvest moon! We would definitely love to return.

Great house with lots of space and friendly hosts!

Rob and Yolanda were incredibly kind and available throughout my entire stay. When we arrived there was a birthday balloon and welcome basket as well as very easy instructions regarding the house. The house has the basics necessary for a comfortable vacation and is a 10 minute walk from a couple nice beaches (although we were asked to leave one due to it being private). Would recommend and/or stay again!

Great Experience

A run to the nearby beach is how my husband and I started our day. Loved it! We also enjoyed meals in the beautiful kitchen and relaxing on the deck afterwards. The spacious and comfortable master bedroom is the perfect sanctuary for quiet time. Great experience and memories.

Great house with great amenities

This house was perfect for us. It is spacious and well furnished. It has a comfortable livingroom, modern bathrooms, large bedrooms and a gourmet chef's kitchen. It has a spacious enclosed yard and deck. We enjoyed our time here reading, taking short strolls to the beach, and trying our hands at some gourmet recipes. There are markets and very good restaurants nearby. We felt like we were home here. This house was well-designed for comfortable, stress-free living. We'll definitely be coming back.

Worth the experience

Our experience with Roberts rental was fantastic. I loved the enclosed front porch. I worked there during the day and at night we sat there and watched the sunset. It was directly across from the beach which made it so easy to go back and forth to the house with our 9 month old. Our stay was also during storm Ida but Robert was so responsive to anything we needed. The location was close to everything we needed and has beautiful New England drives leading in. I would recommend this spot to anyone looking for that perfect quiet location to relax with family or friends.

Great house and great hosts

We booked this house Friday night and the hosts were able to accommodate us for a Saturday arrival. The house is fully stocked and very inviting. We live in a high rise and the large back yard and grill is exactly what we needed. We cooked every meal on the grill. It was an amazing experience. The house is walking distance to the beach, not even a 10 minute walk. They let us extend our stay late on the day of the checkout which was a huge help and very much appreciated. We give this house and the hosts 5 stars.

Comfortable and well appointed home from home close to beaches

Booked a week in August for our family in the UK and extended family in USA. Robert and Yolanda were attentive and responsive during booking and run up to the holiday. Their home is a true gem and a home from home, set in a beautiful neighbourhood, a short 5 minute drive to central Milford for shopping and restaurants, or if you fancy it about a half hour walk! Lots to do nearby and we were lucky to have booked during the Milford oyster festival. Every detail catered for at the address including towels, beach towels, sun cream, toiletries etc. The kitchen is fully equipped allowing easy catering for 10 persons with TWO dishwashers! Robert was extremely helpful on arrival and accessible when questions arose via text or in person. I would highly recommend staying here! Damian A.

Wonderful socially distant week at the beach

My dog, husband, friend and I stayed here for a week in July 2020. We were looking for a house on the beach in Connecticut where we wouldn't have to fight the crowds and we found it here! Rob, the owner was very responsive. Milford is a beautiful community with lots of restaurants, shopping and waterfront activities. I'd like to spend more time downtown, but due to covid, we pretty much kept to ourselves and had a wonderful week spending all day at the beach, paddleboarding, floating, enjoying beautiful low tide sunsets on the cove between Pond Point and Welches Point, and sunrises around the corner facing east. We went on a couple nice bike rides and walks. We grilled and ate in the spacious fenced backyard, had our morning coffee in the sunroom overlooking the water and evening wine on the front lawn watching the sunset over the sound. It was a luxury having a dishwasher and laundry at the beach. Beach is maintained by the neighborhood association so it's popular with the neighborhood. The beach is pretty rocky -- bring your water shoes and you'll be good to go. Nothing beats being right on the beach and not having to get up early to park, fight the crowds and schlep your stuff around.

A true home away from home!

This home is absolutely amazing in every way. Robert and Yolanda made us feel so welcome in their home. The 10 minute walk to the beach felt like it was around the corner. The beach was very nice, not at all crowded. The neighborhood is very nice, a friendly feel. I cannot say enough about the house. It looks quaint from the outside but ultra modern on the inside. I cannot comment on local restaurants as our family enjoyed cooking in the chef's kitchen. We all felt so at home. The fenced yard was perfect for our dog. She was able to be outside with us and not on a leash. We enjoyed playing some yard games and sitting outside reading a book. The living room is big enough for the entire family to sit comfortably. The master bedroom is like an oasis. The bathrooms are amazing. Usually by the end of the week everyone is homesick. Not this time. I did not want to leave. I highly recommend this home. You will not be disappointed. My thanks to Yolanda and Robert for opening up their home to vacationers. I would come back here in a heartbeat.

Quaint Historic Ocean View

Property manager was very attentive to our needs and replied to all msgs in a very timely fashion. There were a couple things that needed tending to when we arrived and he took care of it immediately. Despite having parking on the street, it was never an issue and often got the spot that was right next to the house. The beach was directly across the street and was clean with friendly neighbors! Although there is a sign stating no dogs or animals allowed on the beach, there were many dogs on the beach but all owners were very attentive. Super cute neighborhood!

Beautiful View

My favorite part of the property is its gorgeous view of the Long Island Sound. It’s an older home, and still needs a little work, but the beds are super comfortable, the host is great at getting back to you and he left us a nice basket of goodies and wine. He also provides things like TP, Paper towels, sheets, bath and beach towels, coffee, detergent and more. This is so nice to not have to bring all of that when traveling with 3 kids! The small beach out front is nice for collecting shells, skipping rocks, or reading on the bench. Overall, we had a really great stay.

Everything you need

This property was clean and had everything you could possibly need. Kitchen had every type of equipment and more than ample dishes and glasses. There was a nice view of the shore from the front window and sunsets were amazing. The beach across the street was quiet and very natural with lots of shells and seaweed and rocks that my grandson loved to explore. The neighborhood is very family oriented and felt quite safe. The property itself is on the oldish side but nicely decorated and arranged. Parking is on a side street but we didn’t have any trouble. There is another unit upstairs and it was obvious when they were walking around in heels but all in all a quiet comfortable place to relax and enjoy the shore.

Gem on the shore

This property has everything you need. It was nice not to have to worry about beach chairs or towels. Having the backyard fully equipped was also great. The kitchen is fully stocked and the owner provided a very much appreciated welcome basket with very thoughtful treats. The owner was kind enough to check in to make sure everything was okay when a hurricane was forecast to hit during our stay. Excellent communication. I would highly recommend this property!

Quick Getaway

We recently moved to the east coast and needed a quick vacation. Fortunately, we were able to find Robert's property last minute and enjoyed a few days exploring New Haven and the adjacent areas. Robert was always available via text or the Vrbo chat to answer any questions and the house had everything we needed. The house is close to New Haven and Robert had some great food recommendations (which we ended up trying for every meal). Thanks again Robert!

Fantastic beachfront getaway

My family and I came to stay at this lovely property after having been home bound due to the pandemic for over a year. This was our first real vacation since 2019. We enjoyed the fact that the space was spotless with comfortable spaces, a well appointed kitchen, and above all the gorgeous view of the Long Island Sound and Charles Island. We highly recommend this property for anyone who wants to have a peaceful and rejuvenating getaway with their family. I highly recommend this rental and will come back again!

Wonderful time, great value

My wife and I wanted to get together with our friends for a bit. We thought we were going to meet at a hotel, but the cost would have been 5 times more! Staying here was really wonderful and much less expensive than a hotel! Robert was a gracious host, and very thoughtful with his food and shopping recommendations. He also left several snacks, treats and beverages for us. The property was spotless clean and very comfortable. We ate home a few times, so his kitchen had everything we could possibly want! The view of the water in the morning, the BBQ in the evening, and the price made it a wonderful time!!! Thanks Robert! We'll be back!

A Wonderful Property and a Wonderful Host

This trip was exactly what we needed. Upon entering the property, we found a goodie basket with snacks and goodies. Robert also left us refreshments in the refrigerator! The place was cozy, clean and organized. The beds are amazingly comfortable! I was on vacation but my friend had to work a bit, but was very happy with the fast internet! We spent the days on the beach and really enjoyed the back yard for dinner and just hanging out in the evening. There is a very cool outdoor sectional and a lot of places to relax. Also, Robert is an amazing host. He was quick with suggestions on where to shop, eat and where to go in New Haven. We ran out of propane for the grill and he delivered it within 20 minutes. He is awesome! I really loved this place. The view of the water, the relaxed vibe of the house and the proximity to restaurants and stores. We're are probably going to book a week or 2 in August!
