Location can’t be beat. Steps away from town shops and restaurants. Also a short walk to a beautiful park, playground and library. A true home away from home!

The home is near by shopping and in the other direction, a great park. We have loved staying there before and still do love it. Our grand daughters loved coming for the day to go to the park.

Rowayton dream house

Wow, this place was terrific! I stayed there with two friends, and it had everything we could have wanted, even including tokens for ice cream at the local ice cream shop! The living space is cozy and ample at the same time — and exactly as it appears in the photos. The check-in process and communication were also excellent. Highly recommend!

Perfect location

Our son and daughter in law live in Manhattan but love visiting Rowayton and visit often. This was a perfect house for the 5 of us to spend some much needed family time. The location was really just perfect and allowed us to easily walk to coffee, the Market and restaurants. Very comfortable and nicely appointed. Susan was so kind and super responsive to all of our questions. We will definitely keep this sweet property bookmarked!!

Family Rowayton trip

This was our first visit to Rowayton. We chose the home because of its proximity to the village and beach, and the location was great. It’s small but well appointed, and we were able to accommodate 4 adults, a four-year old and a doodle. The host was incredibly helpful and flexible. I can’t say enough about her kindness.

Cozy and charming

We had a very nice stay in this cozy house about a block from town. We could walk everywhere. Plus , only a five minute drive to Darien. The house is very well equipped and very clean and we had everything we needed for a perfect stay. Owner/manager was very responsive and helpful and even left tokens for local ice cream shop. All in all a lovely experience.

We had a wonderful 2 weeks in Rowayton. You can’t beat the location. You are a short walk from Rowayton Seafood, Brendan’s 101, Sails American Grill & Rowayton Market. You can even walk to Bailey beach and enjoy a day at the Long Island Sound. It’s a charming 3 bed 2 bath house. Everything was super clean. Our host is an expert in hospitality. She was easy to contact & responded quickly. Everything was as promised. Highly recommend.

Revisiting Hometown

Stayed with a group of friends who had all grown up in Rowayton in the 1950's-60's. We love it there, though things have certainly changed. This home is in a great central location, near the River and within walking distance of the few eating spots and "downtown" shopping (food and otherwise). Susan, the host, was very responsive when we had a WiFi question.Weather was great, so the front patio was used often (back patio grill also worked just fine). We kept busy touring our old haunts by car and by foot. Very clean and comfortable.

Cozy & Charming Stay in the Heart of Rowayton

Our family of 4 had a wonderful month at this cozy and quiet home in the heart of Rowayton. We could not have asked for a better location - just around the corner from Rowayton Pizza, 101’s, Rowayton Seafood and the quaint downtown and farmers market. Additionally, the home is walking distance to the beaches. The property manager, Susan, and the owner , Joan, are super attentive and resolved any questions or issues promptly. Both are also very kind and went out of their way to make us feel at home with small details and care. The home is very comfortable- all appliances worked well. The outdoor seating areas are a treat and double nicely as a remote office too. Would definitely recommend to anyone for a stay in Rowayton!!

Christmas in CT

We had a wonderful experience in this Rowayton property and the owner could not have been nicer or more helpful. The property was supplied with anything one could have ever needed and incredibly organized! The location cannot be beaten - had it not been winter and we not Southerners 😂 - we very easily could have walked to everything - shops, market, restaurants, even my daughter’s home. I woke up one morning to snow and promptly began to take some beautiful pictures. I then went to get a cup of coffee and, by the time I looked out of the big bay window overlooking the front patio, someone had come and created a walking path and cleared the steps leading up to the house for our safe passage. As I was traveling with my 85 year old mother, this was one of the very thoughtful gestures the howeowner either extended herself or provided. It is quite evident the owner of this lovingly maintained and furnished home is a very interesting person and interested person. Both my mother, adult son and I were amazed and impressed by the collected and available library and each found several books to pique our curiosity and entertain during our down time. I would definitely rent this property again and hope to do so in order to see my family who live very near while having my own comfortable space.

Wonderful holiday retreat!

The house was exceptionally clean and comfortably decorated. All the beds were very comfortable. The kitchen was well-stocked with pans and cooking utensils for our day of Thanksgiving cooking. The host answered questions quickly and was very accommodating. The location was terrific for access to other towns and easy hiking with our corgi!
