Such a wonderful experience this past weekend! Such a beautiful home and so close to the water. The few questions we had were answered right away. The fireplace makes for a perfect and relaxing atmosphere. Will definitively book again.

Jeannine was a wonderful host! Very responsive to any questions we had. The house is perfect! Warm, charming, comfortable and cozy! The beds are comfortable and the kitchen well stocked. The water is so close you can see it from the enclosed porch which is a wonderful spot for coffee in the morning! We couldn’t have picked a better place to spend our Thanksgiving weekend! Will definitely return to this house when back in Niantic!

Beautiful home, gem location!
We stayed at the Surf for our visit to family weekend at the US Coast Guard Academy. The Surf is a beautiful, cozy, meticulous, super clean home, steps from the beach. We did not spend nearly enough time enjoying the home or its location, (as we were at the Academy the majority of the time,) but it was great for our son to come back & relax with us in a home away from home. Highly recommend, and would definitely return!
