Very responsive to the TV remote issues and a lot of centipedes but that would be expected so close to the water. They sprayed and that helped. Very clean location and beautiful view!

We had a truly wonderful time here. The property offers gorgeous, scenic river views, and it was fascinating watching the submarine base activities right from the front porch. It is incredibly peaceful, making it the perfect, inspiring place to sit down and write.A huge bonus was the easy accessibility that made the visit completely stress-free for my mobility-challenged friend. We will definitely be back again!

The location is excellent. If you're looking to stay at incredible place by Groton Submarine Base, or the US Coast Guard Academy - you can't go wrong here. There are note better hosts out there.Please note: There is a railroad track between the location and the water that does service the Submarine base (and others) that runs occasionally at night (once in my 3 night stay). At first, I thought it disruptive, and then it made me appreciate how hard our services are working for us. It's not like staying at an airport w/ continuous noise. It's discreet, and if you take a minute, it's awe inspiring.- BubbleHead '00
