We were in New Haven for a Yale graduation and this home was a big win! We were only 12 minutes from campus and it was great to come back to a clean and spacious home to relax. The house is just as it’s pictured and Chris was excellent to rent from. We would definitely recommend for groups staying in New Haven!

Excellent experience. Chris was an awesome host: informative, responsive, and very pleasant to deal with. House is spacious, meticulous, and has all the amenities of a typical home. We were very comfortable with 5 adults and 2 children. Kids (7 & 9) loved the huge 3rd floor bedroom/playroom with oversized bunk beds and lots of toys. Close to I-95, Yale University, Tweed airport but tucked away in a quiet neighborhood.

First time to CT

Chris’s property was spotless which was my #1 concern. The area was super quiet. The house was big and spacious. My one issue is we could never get the back door to lock besides the screen door. The listing needs to be updated as there are not two king beds and no firepit. Not a big deal to us but the beds could be to others. Shawna
