A great place to visit family!

My family of 4 had a lovely stay. The house was clean and has been nicely remodeled. We have family that lives nearby in Ashaway and this was a great house for us to stay in while we visited from California. The view was amazing and we had fun using this as our home base while we visited local sites. We loved being able to walk over to the marina to borrow kayaks and paddle boards. One challenge for us was there are no bedroom doors so those that got up early had to be extra quiet not to wake the other people still sleeping. Overall we had a wonderful stay and will come back to stay during another visit.

This is a gem!

Cleanest vrbo property we have stayed at- Even the screened in porch was spotless. We wish the weather had cooperated to use all the outdoor spaces. Thankful for a couple covered porches to enjoy the scenery. Great home away from home in a convenient but quiet location.

Family vacation to hometown

Took our elderly in-laws back to their hometown for a visit to see family and some long time friends. The VRBO house was located in the area my father in-law grew up, which he totally enjoyed. The views from the property are very lovely, everyone enjoyed sitting on the screened in porch having morning coffee.

Sister weekend

Fantastic! Spot on with location and views. So relaxing on the water. Sit and chat- in shade with cool hanging chair or rooftop lounge or screened dining- so many options. Great instructions, guides to local activities & food. Zack helped us at the marina for some relaxing kayak time. Loved this place.

Absolutely as pictured! Crisp! Clean! Convenient!

We stayed here with our family of 5. There was plenty of space and the beds were comfortable. The location was convenient for Mystic and Stonington and we got to see all of the sights and come home to relax and unwind. We hope to stay again the the next time we visit family in the area. Paul was also great and helpful and the guide they put together of local businesses was key! I would give it 6 stars if I could!

Wonderful Wedding Weekend

My husband and I rented this house as our daughter was getting married at a nearby vineyard. It was the perfect house and setting for my daughter and her bridesmaids to get ready for the big day. The house was very clean and provides all the amenities you’d want. Paul, the host, was very responsive and excellent in communicating which I truly appreciated. Hoping yo visit again next Fall and just relax and enjoy the beauty of Stonington.

The perfect birthday getaway! ❤️

We had a fabulous time! It was the perfect birthday getaway for me. The views were a delight. We thoroughly loved our time on the upper deck. It was so relaxing, and just heavenly. Seeing a fire rainbow, plus a halo rainbow when I walked out on the deck was a special treat! We love Stonington, and the surrounding towns. It was a great to be there, again, and walk around town admiring the gorgeous historic homes. One of our favorite restaurants is not far away, in Noank, which is another fun town to explore. Thank you, Paul, for sharing your beautiful home and property with us. Most Sincerely, D. & M.

Cottage Charmer with Great Waterfront Views

Nicely renovated cottage near the Stonington Marina, convenient to Westerly, RI, and Stonington and Mystic CT. Great for a quick early spring trip with teen, husband and two dogs. Very impressed with cleanliness of space, layout, new washer/dryers, and very well appointed kitchen. Liked the clean, Scandinavian, practical, mid-century modern style. Especially appreciated all the empty cubbies, shelving, and etageres for space to spread our stuff! Both upper and lower bathrooms comfortable. Stunning view from Master bedroom deck. Would love to come back in warmer weather to enjoy more water activities but got one lovely canoe in on the sunniest day.

Wonderful House with a beautiful view! Very Tranquil!

Hi stayed at this home for the second time, and my stay in June was even better than last year's stay in May, as the weather was perfect! The only complaint was my elderly mother found the murphy bed uncomfortable and there were no pillows for that bed, but I found some extra in the closet upstairs luckily. The grill was also in disarray when I arrived, it seemed it had been washed, and staff emptying the garbage was doing their rounds and helped me put it back together. Interestingly he said some guests can be slobs or something to that effect. The grill worked great as I grilled each evening and there was another one on upstairs deck! The kitchen was nicely equipped with items for most cooking needs. We brought our own Keurig and luckily the house had sugar, which I had forgotten, and there were several other items that you may forget to pack. I love the kitchen, great look and design, great refrigerator too, preparing meals here was a breeze! There could be more plates and some of the knives were getting rusty. The house is very comfortable, AC worked great, and of course the wonderful views from just about anywhere in the home. The massive upstairs deck is great to sit and relax as we did so enjoying cheese and crackers watching boats go by. There is a view of the marina, a nice path from marina to the house by the water, and loved the new swinging seats on the small main level deck and below the 3 season room! I'd love to stay again someday! Peaceful retreat!

About the host

Hosted by Paul Goetz

Host profile image
I grew up spending summers on Wequetequock Cove. My brothers and I spent hours at the beach, sailing and canoeing, fishing and crabbing on the cove. After moving around the U.S and Europe for 20 years I wanted to give my kids the chance to connect with this very special place too, so I bought a cottage as a summer home. A few years on I added this very special house next door to our original place and remodeled it from the bottom up.

Why they chose this property

You'll love this clean and modern home's water views from every space, and the decks are amazing. The location is central to Mystic, Stonington Borough, Westerly and Watch Hill. Beaches, hikes, the Seaport and Aquarium are close by. Off street parking makes coming and going easy. Complimentary kayaks and canoes and 50% off power boat rentals let you get on the water.

What makes this property unique

We designed the house to open to the water with windows and glass doors facing the cove. Three decks offer guests outdoor spaces suited to every part of the day. For your comfort, we use all white linens and a professional laundry. Bed duvet covers are laundered between guests so that everything you touch is clean and fresh. Guests are welcome to enjoy complimentary kayak, canoe and paddle board use, and 50% off power boat rentals at Stonington Marina two doors down.
