Great location

Great location for our day trips and easy check in. Didn’t go during a time to enjoy the beach but would be a great house for summer trip.

Quaint beach cottage

Our stay was relaxing in this cute beach home. Everything was very clean. Owners were quick to answer our questions. The beach at the end of the block was beautiful. I enjoyed taking a walk every morning around the neighborhood. Short drive to Saybrook, Mystic, Foxwoods and restaurants. We look forward to visiting again.

A cozy spot in a great location

We had a lovely stay at this home. The house was clean and comfortable and had lots of different seating areas so we didn't feel like we were always on top of one another. The location is great! We were there in the off-season, but I have no doubt that this would be a very special community in the summertime. It's a quick and easy walk down the street to a lovely beach. Mystic and the aquarium made for a lovely day trip that was easy to get to from the location.

Great place

The place has 3 bedrooms and a pull out bed in the couch in the living room. The cottage is deceptively spacious. The beach was large, the sand was great, and the water is great. It is walking distance to Sound View. I may book it again next year.

About the host

Hosted by Peter Giordano

To own a home near the beach has been a dream of ours that came true when we recently bought the home in June of 2020. Even though we have only owned the home for a few years, we have enjoyed our stay as an escape from our normal day to day. We hope you get the same sensation of calm and relaxation during your stay.

Warmly,
The Giordano Family
