Super cute & fun get away

This house was great for our family & there were lots of nice touches, like the playground in the yard, the board games & cookies, and all the lights and decorations. Our kids also loved the jetted tub! The beach is a short walk away and there's a community center down the block with a larger playground and tennis courts. Perfect spot for families like ours!

Whimsical, lovely home for our stay

This home and property are really cutely designed and decorated. The house is older, but very well maintained and has really unique decor. From beach to Holiday to mid-century modern it made us smile every time we walked in the door. The yard was wonderful for our dogs and the amenities were really pretty great for the price. The neighborhood is very walkable and there’s even a little store situated in the middle of the neighborhood. Run by a family with children. It was such a nice surprise. We would love to stay here again.

Lovely getaway

We had such a great experience here! Joseph was so gracious and responsive and went above and beyond to make our stay great. His place is so cute with a mix of whimsical and really convenient touches. Our dog loved the yard, too! The neighborhood is gorgeous, too. We wished we had more time to explore the area and to take advantage of all the house has to offer.

Adorable beach house

Quick get away

Very nice house and location. Loved the decor especially the bubble nightlights. The host was easy to reach and the neighborhood was perfect for walking our dog. The beds could use a little updating but, otherwise, it was a perfect weekend. Highly recommend.

Christmas in Connecticut

The experience was perfect - the cottage was very clean, very comfortable, spacious, cheerful, bright, accommodating, and the host was very hospitable, kind, and accessible. We really enjoyed our stay. The fenced-in yard was perfect for our fur-buddies we brought with us. We plan to return.

Relaxing stay with hubby and dog

We had a great time at the house. Joe was very nice and helpful. We loved the fenced in yard, outdoor jacuzzi and the short walk to the beach. One tiny constructive criticism is maybe freshen up the bedding a bit. Overall, lovely house!

Sweet home with perfect yard for puppy

We had a perfect relaxing stay while our dog had the time of her life running free in the fenced in yard! The house was very clean and had what we needed. Loved the outside shower and the beach at the end of the street. The neighbors were very friendly and Sally enjoyed watching our puppy play in her dog pool all afternoon. Was the perfect get away for all of us!

Wonderful visit

I am familiar with the area of Niantic it's a lovely quaint area and it's wonderful off season. So my sibling and I were there and we brought our dog and it's lovely that this location is pet friendly. So my doggy had free reign of the backyard the house was awesome decorated to the gills for the holiday season between holiday and beach theme it was just fabulous it was warm it was cozy at great communication with Mr Kelly before and at the time of my stay. It was wonderful I'd be happy to return again and I highly recommend this location for a visit:-)

Cottage by the ocean

This was such a cute place. We visited in spring where everything is just start to bloom the yard was fenced in so great for dogs, with a cute play place for kids. The neighborhood is so quiet and peaceful. We walked several of the streets and meet a few friendly neighbors. The host was fantastic checking in to make sure we had everything we needed. The house was clean, Air with lots of windows and light. We spent time playing board games and reconnect. Definitely would come the area again and stay here.

Cozy cottage

The cottage was cozy and clean. We had a few issues the day of arrival (no laundry, cleaning and mowing lawn delays) but the owner promptly rectified the situation. The beach and neighborhood are fantastic, love the outdoor shower! I would prefer less decorations but that is just my personal preference.

About the host

Hosted by Joseph Kelly

Former Educator now working in Finance industry... Lives in Vero Beach, FL and Niantic, CT... I also enjoy being a great host for all of my guests and being able to enhance their vacation experience here at beautiful BlackPoint Beach !

Why they chose this property

BlackPoint Beach Club is a private beach community on the Connecticut Shoreline that is extremely beautiful, charming, and serene... The sound of waves crashing at night - along with the sweet smell of sea water - is simply captivating ! Our peaceful neighborhood includes a quaint grocery store with an amazing deli and shop... In addition, there are lots of biking, walking, hiking, swimming, and boating experiences for you to explore when you arrive here !

What makes this property unique

Our neighborhood is basically a very small island on Niantic Bay in a quintessential New England waterfront setting with a rich maritime heritage... We have a variety of local beaches, quaint downtown areas, and a very special connection to the sea !

You are right down the road from three beaches...I especially love the convenience and charm of our very own BlackPoint Grocery Market which is run by a local family here.. It has an excellent grocery selection, penny candy, neat toys & trinkets for kids, and lots of beach souvenirs... And of course, it has an amazing deli that provides only the highest quality and freshly made food for your convenience such as grinders, quiches, breakfast sandwiches, ice cream, slushies, etc.

You will absolutely love your stay here at BlackPoint Beach Club - Welcome !
