This is our second stay. We came back because we knew how much we like it. The location is great for walking to eat, to town, to the water. We love the 2nd house so grandparents get privacy. The pool and yard are so lovely. The hosts are very kind and easy to communicate with. The house is clean and comfortable. Definitely recommend!

We had such a lovely stay at Greg & Erin's home. It was the perfect space for our crew and the pool and huge yard gave the kids a ton of space to run around and play. The house was extremely clean and well-equipped. The carriage house was adorable and gave us some additional space to spread out. We, of course, took advantage of the location and grabbed lobster rolls from Lobster Landing. Communication with Greg was awesome and helpful. Will definitely visit again next time we're in the area. :)

Large and functional home

We were two families and my parents. The cottage was a perfect little addition to let my parents have some privacy. Loved the pool and all the floaties/toys. We ended up just enjoying ourselves at home for much of the trip when we weren’t participating in my cousin’s wedding festivities. Was nice to walk down to the marina restaurants too. Only complaint is that the house is a little older so things like outlets/lights/drains were a challenge at times.Greg was super communicative and helpful.

Perfect long weekend mini vacation

My husband and I had such an enjoyable weekend with our 2 sons, daughters in law and our 6 grandchildren. We spent quality time together, barbecuing and enjoying the wonderful pool. The home is beautiful and the kids loved swimming in the pool. The host kept in contact with us and everything was perfect.

Family wedding

Our daughter was married in Westbrook and this house was close by and fit all our needs as a family that also had small children. Our only concern was that the inground pool was open to the backyard so obviously children had to have constant attention on them. Other than that, it was a beautiful large backyard and we had a nice fire in the fire pit and a lot of fun playing ping pong and darts downstairs. The open kitchen and family room was wonderful. Would recommend to any large family

The Rocky Sprocket Adventure

Our bicycle group, the Rocky Sprockets, just completed its 45th consecutive bike trip that included a three-night stay at this beautiful house. 10 members participated this year, and the house, the property and the location were absolutely perfect for us. We had plenty of room, the pool and backyard patio were awesome, and the kitchen/living room layout gave us a chance to be together as we cooked meals and reminisced about our many tremendous rides over the years. After riding 65 miles on Friday we were ready to relax, and the house provided that and much more. A/C, plenty of room, large bedrooms, a downstairs game room and a guest cottage were more than enough for us to comfortably spend a weekend together. We cannot think of a single thing that we would have changed!! And we took our bikes for a ride along the shoreline on the weekend and found some incredibly beautiful shoreline spots in Clinton and the neighboring towns. Overall, the house and location far exceeded our expectations and we look forward to returning next year.

Wonderful house!

We greatly enjoyed this beautiful home in Clinton. House was perfect, pool and yard were excellent, and communication with the owner was superb. It was our first time renting in this area, and we especially enjoyed Hammonasset State Park - beautiful beach. The only negative was that the street was somewhat busy and the young kids couldn't ride their bikes there. I highly recommend this beautiful property.

Family Vacation

Our multigenerational family stayed at this house and everyone had a great time. The best part of the house- the pool! Very clean and well maintained. The kids and adults swam every day and sometimes multiple times a day (we had a lot of cloudy, dreary days). There were plenty of pool towels and lots of seating around the pool. We also enjoyed the open layout with the kitchen and family room and dining room. Outside grill was in good working order (a little on the smaller side). The home is also very close to Hammonaset beach which we enjoyed on our sunny day. Thanks Greg for hosting us and being so responsive!

Nice house, beautiful pool.

The house and guest house accommodated our 6 adults and 1 teenager easily. It's located in a nice neighborhood and within walking distance of Lobster Landing which my family highly recommends trying. We really enjoyed the use of the well upkept pool. The house had some definite housekeeping issues (stained towels and bedcovers, walls that needed repair or painting, shower curtain liners that need replacing, damaged patio furniture and excessive debris found in the Livingroom) some of which the host addressed very quickly. Also be aware for those with mobility issues, that the top few steps on the way to the second floor bedrooms, do not have access to a railing to hold onto to. With a little more attention to detail, I would give this house a higher rating.
