Wouldn’t stay again
While the house was lovely, the property manager was extremely rude and offensive. When I wrote to them with a question and to let him know the cleaner had not done a great job he told me he was offended and that I could leave early. I’ve rented many properties and have never been treated so poorly.

Exceptional!
The location is great being steps from 2 private beaches. This is a welcoming, quiet community. For walkers, there is a short, beautiful shore line walk to the town beach with nature at its finest along the way. In addition, are the sights of the Marina and Cedar Island. The 3 decks on the house provided exceptional views. The house was welcoming, warm, very clean and comfortable. This home provides everything that you need for a wonderful, relaxing vacation plus more, I hope that we will be able to experience it again in the future!

We all are retired in our early 60's and just needed a good break from everything. It was extremely clean and very quiet. The home had everything you could need. Short walk to the beach. Restaurants were great. Especially CHIPS and BILL'S. Lots of stairs from level to level but we didn't mind. AC was 2 zone and perfect.

Great decks
It felt like home, very comfortable, clean, and well taken care for with all the comforts of home. The views of the salt pond from the decks was great and the neighborhood was quiet and the people were friendly. My only suggestion would be to add a Keurig. If we come back to the area again next year, I would definitely stay here.

Spacious Beach Home, Clinton
We really enjoyed our 1 wk stay at this large Clinton Beach home ! This home was spacious, very clean, cool (great AC) and well equipped. It was bright and sunny with gorgeous views from inside and from two expansive porches. We entertained our large family for dinner one night with ease and very comfortably. (Although I did need to borrow a large ceramic platter) We were able to squeeze 5 cars in the home's parking area. The upside down foot print of this home means you can really enjoy the great views but must also be prepared for climbing the stairs a lot (bedrooms and bathrooms are on 1st level, while living room, dining and kitchen are on 2nd level) We wished the LR TV and the 2 burner BBQ grill were larger but we certainly made out fine with those provided. The master bed was very comfortable, although the fitted sheet could have been larger because it kept popping off the corner and creeping up the sides. We would happily rent this place again. Thank you for a wonderful stay !!

Wonderful location for walkers and bike riders
The house is perfect for families that want to walk or bike; it's close to wonderful beach front state parks. The owner responded truly in seconds to a check-in question. The split level house may be challenging for people who can't handle a lot of stairs. No desk for mobile workers. (We ended up buying a portable one). Overall, this house is roomy and in an wonderful location within walking distance of downtown Clinton. We'd stay again.

Great Spacious Home
Short walk to a small beaches, but lots of fun at low tide on the sandbars. Nice cool AC and spacious living area. Very comfortable with 5 adults and 2 kids. Parking for 3 cars, 4 cars would be tight. Space is light a airy and great lot of windows. Easy to get to town and main roads. A little confusing instructions from owner on sweep cleaning vs. no cleaning fee (we were charge a cleaning fee). They need to update the instructions.

Great House
We took advantage of the off season one last time before our oldest starts kindergarten. We hit the weather lottery the week we were at this house. The house is fantastic and well equipped, one of the best rentals we've stayed in. We loved the small association beach nearby and it was perfect for our kids. Thanks for sharing your home with us!

Nice house in quiet area
The house is as pictured on the web. Immaculate and spacious. Bedrooms and bathrooms are on the first floor. Second floor is one large great room with a lovely covered porch and the third floor is a family room. The neighborhood was very quiet and safe for children. Beach is less than a five minute walk and empty most times. Water is extremely shallow and not possible for adults to swim in but great for kids. The house is well equipped and the AC worked well on the first and second floor but not so well on the third floor. The goal for our very hot week in July was to have a comfortable house where we could have a safe visit with our son, his wife and infant daughter during the pandemic. A petty complaint is there are too many glasses, pots and pans and storage containers in the kitchen making it difficult to store things but only three mugs and one dishtowel. But that is a minor complaint. Overall the house met our expectations and I would recommend it to anyone who is looking for a comfortable place to stay away from crowds at a very reasonable price.

This was our second time renting this home and it was just as we remembered it. The neighborhood is quiet and beautiful.

Spacious home close to the beach!
We had a wonderful stay in this home! It was a short walk to the beach which was helpful with 2 young children. The home was spacious and very clean, well equipped with all of the essentials! The beach was small and perfect for kids, although a little rocky so water shoes are recommended. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in this home and would highly recommend it. Reid answered all questions promptly!

Incredibly relaxing shoreline getaway
My husband and I brought our 3 month old daughter here for 3 weeks - and the house was everything we imagined and more! The house was neat, clean and well-stocked with all of the essentials we needed to enjoy the beach, make great family meals and relax. It was also extremely hot the first week we were there and the central air was a lifesaver! Being so close to the quiet neighborhood beaches was awesome and just what we were looking for. Our goal was to have a relaxing place to introduce our little one to family on the east coast and this home was perfect - plenty of comfortable space to catch-up with family inside and out. We loved everything about our stay and if we could've stayed another 3 weeks we would have. Thanks Reid for being so easy to work with and answering all of our questions! Everyone that visited loved the house, neighborhood and already asked if we'd be back next year!

Perfect Shore Location
My family and I five adults and three small children stayed at this location for a full week. It was exactly as described, very close to two private beaches in a very quiet neighborhood. The house had plenty of room, we were never on top of one another and since we’re all good cooks loved that the kitchen came fully equipped with everything we needed. The bedrooms were spacious and the beds very comfortable. There are many great attractions and restaurants in the nearby towns of Madison Westbrook and Old Saybrook, and the Chamard Vineyard is a short ride away offering a great tasting menu and restaurant. I would highly recommend this home for a wonderful beach vacation.

About the host

Why they chose this property

Deep association beaches so there's plenty of sand even at high tide. During low tide you can walk out hundreds of feet. There's tons to explore in this area: a winery, unusual shops, and the towns of Guilford and Madison.

What makes this property unique

House is located in a small network of tiny roads with virtually no traffic - extremely safe and kid friendly. There's a nice flat back yard for a game of softball, and the 2 association beaches are less than a 1 minute walk. With 3 separate decks you can either join the group or read a book quietly.
