Very nice property, lots of homey touches. We had a nice family get together in October, the setting was fantastic right on the water and close to town. We had the last rental of the season so it got cold at night in the bedrooms but that won't be a problem in the high season. Would definitely stay again and highly recommend.

We had a great time and the view was incredible. We also liked walking to the beach on the sand, and not on the tarmac. Hearing concerts near the Madison Beach Hotel was fun!

Wondering time sitting on the covered porch with a delightful breeze. The cottage is well laid out for a relaxing vacation. We enjoyed walking to the concert right down the beach and riding our bikes to Hammonasset State Park.

The cottage is beautiful! We rented the home to have a small family celebration of life for our sister. We were raised in Madison and this home was the perfect spot for us to celebrate. Views were amazing - both Tuxis Island and Faukner’s Island/a lighthouse were in view. The decor and cottage were quintessential New England. Kitchen was very well stocked. Easy walk to the Wharf and Christie’s (I use to waitress there in college when it was the Dolly). We were there during a rainy chilly Nor’Easter and the cottage was warm and sweet. It was just perfect.

Beautiful property with direct access to the Long Island Sound. Stunning views at low tide when tidal pools around boulder rocks are exposed. We had fun finding hermit crabs, prawns, and snails. We enjoying going to Hammonasset Beach State Park which is a short drive away. Quaint town and lovely neighborhood. The owner is very responsive.
