Great breach weekend

Our family had a great long weekend here. The cottage was clean and comfortable (with good a/c and plenty of hot water), and had everything we needed. Good location for mixing time at the beach with a visit to New Haven. East Haven town beach was an easy walk and perfect for our 8-year-old. We hope to come back next summer!

Good Location Bad Bed Mattresses

The cottage was in a good location and was very well stocked. The negative feature was the thin and uncomfortable mattresses that made sleeping difficult.

We will be back next year!!!!

All of the amenities were very accurately described in the ad. We used the internet, the long distance phone, plugged our IPODs into the stereo and by far the best was the central Air conditioning. The beach was very private and the river on the side provided interesting lanscape as the tides changed. We would reccomend this property and the owner was super to work with.

Lovely Cottage in Great Location

We really enjoyed this quaint cottage. It had everything we needed in working order. It was clear that the cottage was from a bygone era, but that made it all the more charming. Its many amenities include a washer-dryer, and dishwasher! The beach is at the end of the block and was clean and peaceful. Lanna was a great host. I would definitely stay here again.

5 Fantastic Weeks

We spent 5 wonderful weeks at the little cottage. It was well stocked. Check in was very easy and we also received a very nice welcome gift from Lanna. She is very responsive to any questions or needs you might have. There is a nice little private beach at the end of the road, and its just a short walk to the public beach and splash pad. There are two restaurants within walking distance and we also found that the neighbors were very friendly. We would definitely rent again from Lanna. Mary and Wayne H.

Well pleased!

We stayed during a rainy and very cold weekend and the home was perfectly comfortable for our family: 2 adults and 2 children (11yr and 6yrs.) The home is very clean and was stocked with everything we needed. The owner was quick to answer any questions that we had. There were no problems at all during our stay. The beach and playground were a short walk and the neighbors are nice. We would stay again if in the area.

About the host

Hosted by Lanna Berkun

Host profile image
This is a small community. Many families have owned houses here for generations. It is very safe and friendly. The beaches are never crowded and are often deserted. It is unusual to be able to enjoy the sunrise and sunset on the same beach. You will feel like staying in the neighborhood so it is convenient that there are two restaurants on the street within walking distance. Once you come you will feel right at home. See you at the beach!

Why they chose this property

It is a beautiful beach! It is a short trip from the big metropolitan areas of New York, Boston and Providence using either i-95 or the Shore Line Train. With casinos ( Mohegan Sun and Foxwoods),shops, antiquarians, historical landmarks , Yale University and easy access from I 95 and I91, if you did want to leave the beach there is plenty to do!

What makes this property unique

The local Italian food, and the beach! Yale University,Wooster Street's little Italy is 5 minutes away with the best pizza in the country! Mohegan Sun & Foxwoods Casinos, Mystic Aquarium. Location is central for New England sightseeing.
