It truly felt like a home away from home, making our time in New Haven comfortable and relaxing.The location was also very convenient for exploring the city and visiting Yale University.

BEAUTIFUL home! Super clean and all the amenities and comforts you would want (soft towels, comfortable beds, stocked kitchen, toiletries etc etc). Hot tub is to die for and set in the backyard oasis that feels like the Pacific Northwest and not at all like Connecticut. Couldn’t recommend this home more!!!

Perfect house!

Everything about this house was perfect. The attention to detail inside and out was amazing. With six adults and two children under 2 we had plenty of space. The house has many amenities that we didn't expect, all top of the line. The neighborhood was very walkable. Jonah was very attentive and prompt in his communication. We would highly recommend this property. You won't be disappointed.

Spacious Oasis

Our host Jonah anticipated all of our needs. The home is like walking into a magazine. Beautifully decorated and updated while still maintaining the charm of a turn of the century home. The kitchen is stocked with every appliance you could ever need. Excellent quality linens and mattresses. The many bathrooms are finished in the highest quality fixtures. Location is convenient to Yale and Wooster for your Apizza must haves.
