The property is as described. Beautiful, modern, with any amenity you could need. There were some issues, but communication with the host was immediate and our concerns were met with sincerity and addressed.

Beautiful outside and neighborhood
In town for college visits we were able to stay and use the home as “base” giving everyone space - inside and out to decompress. Kitchen was great and outdoor space is lovely. Beautiful walk to Lighthouse Point Park!

Lots of very nice updates in this New England House and Great Communication with Prop Manager
The house has a lot of updates/renovations that help it stand out from other traditional New England homes. Very comfortable, fully equipped kitchen, amenities. The property manager was very helpful and great communication. We didn't have a chance to use the pool or hot tub but would've been a big bonus if we had. I'm giving a four star rating primarily because I think the price point is a little high, there was a fair amount of outside noise (near Tweed airport), and the neighborhood feels very industrial. Overall, the house worked out extremely well for our family and was an easy drive to New Haven/Yale/pizza etc (15 mins about).
