We are pet-friendly BUT All pets must be approved by us in advance. Generally, only 2 mid-sized pets with good disposition will be accepted. Guests must clean up after their pets (inside the home and outside) or they will be charged an extra cleaning fee. Tell us about your pets before booking.

We do not allow alterations to the check-out date or times after a guest party has checked in, instead, any request should be in the form of an additional reservation if there is availability.
This home is in New England where field mice are common, and while our house is super-clean, on rare occasions mice have gotten into our house. This has happened as a result of guests leaving the exterior doors ajar (propped open) and leaving unsealed containers of food in the cabinets and on the counters, mice will sneak in if the doors are left open. We employ professional extermination services to be proactive and have traps hidden in pet and child-safe areas of the house (like under the stove and in the basement and in the garage). We do not have a rodent problem but wish to remain proactive, so if you are freaked out by the possibility of seeing a trap or an occasional mouse trap then this place is not for you.

The property was located on a quiet street that was also located to the main strip/highway which was very convenient. I was really impressed with Rick’s hospitality from the fantastic pizza recommendations to leaving us snacks and drinks and even coming over and meeting face to face to make sure everything was perfect for us. I would absolutely stay at this property again
The location was great for the day excursions that we had planned and it offered enough room for our large group of 9 people. The owner had the place well stocked with items that we needed during our 6 day stay. It does deserve a 5 star rating. It was very hot when we were there and the thermostat is locked to only go down to 72F. The information book in the home says that they are on an energy plan and can only keep the thermostat between 70F and 80F. Because of that we didn't ask the owner to turn it down lower. A little warm to sleep for us from Minnesota. We found out later from the owner that he could have turned it down lower, so if we had asked we would have found out. If you need it lower - ask.

Thank you for your kind review. We had quite a heat spell while you here. We make a point to telling all guests to reach out to us with any concerns at the beginning of their stay so we can promptly resolve. We didn't realize that the Tstat was set at a low setting 72 until after your stay, we have since changed that so it goes lower. Thanks for staying with us.
Family reunion was a blast - lots of nearby activities for kids
We were 6 adults and 5 kids under 8 and the home was great, very clean and well furnished, and the pack'n'play crib there was a welcome surprise for my 2 year old. Lots of shops nearby for groceries etc. From there we took the kids to Powder Ridge park (20 minutes away) and the IT adventure rope course at Jordan's furniture (15 minutes away). Thinks Rick for your hospitality and responsiveness whenever I had any questions!
After seeing mice running on the counters in the kitchen we started to look around and found mouse traps all throughout the house including on top of the refrigerator. We also found mice droppings under the sink and stove and have the pictures and video to prove it. Nine of us (including 2 - 2 year old babies) had to vacate the property at midnight after complaining to the property owner and vbro resulting in additional unplanned hotel room charges. A formal complaint has been filled and working on a full refund. After spending $## for just two nights the owner did offer us a 50% refund of the money he receives but that would have resulted in a ~66% lost of total charges if I cancelled my reservation immediately - I assume so I wouldn’t write this review. Having to travel to Southington to bury my father and then dealing with this disgusting property we are looking forward to going home. Stay at your own risk. Looks are very deceiving.

You are a first-time traveler on Vrbo, and rather than being reasonable over a simple issue, which your group might’ve caused by leaving the outside doors open and letting a mouse in, you decided to deflect blame with a 1-star review.
It is possible that you saw a mouse, this is New England, and in the winter, mice try to sneak in from the cold. This happens when people leave the outside doors open, there is no way for us to know if your group left the doors open as we weren’t there with you.
We do retain a pest control service, as most hosts do to be proactive. That is why you saw mouse & ant traps around the house. The presence of the traps doesn’t mean that we have a problem, it does mean that we are vigilant in heading issues off.
Our house is immaculate; it gets professionally cleaned from top to bottom several times a week. Hundreds of guest groups have enjoyed staying in our home and have consistently rated it as ‘Sparkling Clean’. We have never received a negative review over a mouse complaint before this one.
Between Vrbo, and the other major short-term rental platforms, we have received over 175 reviews and earned extremely positive 5-star reviews in 98% of them, this is the first 1-star review that we have ever received.
We are sorry that your experience was less than desirable but we feel that your review was an attempt to leverage us out of a 100% refund. You gave us no opportunity to handle the situation, you abandoned our home in the middle of the night after using it for an entire day. Our beds were used, the kitchen was well used, our snacks were eaten, our drinks were consumed, people showered and used our towels.
When you did abandon our home, you left every light in the house on, and the front door unlocked, which also felt a bit vindictive.
We have had 2 short-term guests stay in the home since you left and there have been no ‘mouse sightings’, and we have continued to earn 5-star reviews from them. We specifically asked these guests to be on the lookout for any presence of mice based on your experience.
This property is on a quiet street and about 10 minutes from Quinnipiac University. The property manager was excellent, and very responsive. The WIFI worked like a charm and the beds are very comfortable. We will definitely stay here again on our next visit!
Very clean, nice location, close to I-91. Rick was very helpful.

Thank you for staying at our property and treating it do well. Not sure how the cleanliness rating is showing up as 4 stars, must have thumped that when typing in the app as our intention was 5 stars across the board.

Beautiful
What an amazing house. I stayed here with my family. Rick met us at the door showed us the place and then gave us our privacy. He is extremely kind he even left us a bottle of wine! We really felt at home here with full cable to watch the game, and a kitchen to have a meal. Beds were comfortable bathrooms were spotless neighborhood was quiet. 10/10 would recommend.

Great Rental in North haven!
My wife and I were building a house and needed a place to stay due to construction delays. We found this clean well maintained house within walking distance to almost everything we needed. I enjoyed my brunches at Bagelicious and good Italian meals at Bilinis. The owner was an absolute pleasure to deal with and I would highly recommend this house.

My family and I found this accommodation to be very nice and comfortable - only 4 bedrooms, not 5 as listed, although this was enough for us. We had a great stay in North Haven. Have family who live in the area.

Hi Joan,
Glad you enjoyed our place. When you booked the place it was listed and billed as 4 bedrooms. After that we did an addition and put a 5th bedroom on the lower level across from the laundry room and increased our rates by about $100 per night for the large groups that wanted that. Older bookings like yours, at the lower rate, get the full 4 bedrooms promised to them while new bookings, at the higher billing rate, get the 5 bedrooms. The rate differential covers the extra cleaning costs and utilities.

Clean and well-maintained property
Rick was a very accommodating host. We were delighted with the snacks which greeted us when we arrived. Their home was as described and served as a good place to stay for our visit with relatives in nearby Hamden. Everything was clean and all amenities were in ample supply.
