Ideal CT Coast Rental

If you are looking for the perfect CT coast rental; can’t recommend this house enough. Very efficient home, well set up and surprisingly spacious. Exactly as advertised. Perfect neighbor within steps of the coast line and a nice walk into town. Very good property manager. A must rent if you are seeking a visit to Old Saybrook.

Long Weekend in Old Saybrook

My husband and I stayed with out two young children for a long weekend. We found the listing to be exactly as advertised and perfect for our stay! The communication with the owners was great. We enjoyed walking around the neighborhood, going to the Mystic Aquarium, and going to Hammonasset State Park to go to the beach and nature center.

Awesome!

First off, Charles is an amazing host. He made sure everything was great for our weekend stay and if i needed anything to reach out. There was a small panic about check in but was figured out quickly and efficiently with no detail or question left unanswered. The house was perfect for the occasion. Beds were comfy and the rooms decorated simple but beachy. Very open floor plan with space in the front and backyard. Kitchen was well stocked which was nice since we did cook one night there. The house in all was clean and bright. Seeing the center of town and the nearby marina was stunning and peaceful. Local restaurants were very cute and easy to find for when we ordered in and went out to eat. Location is fabulous, especially for the price. Will stay again if in the area! Thank you again Charles!
