We really enjoyed our stay at this beautiful home! The bed was very comfortable and the flameless battery operated candles on the mantel were a great addition. A lot of thought and care went into decorating both the house and outside area. The kitchen had plenty of utensils and dishes. There's places to get groceries about 5 minutes away. We had a very restful stay, thank you!

Great getaway

This property was accurately advertised and didn't disappoint. Having stayed at several cabins/B&Bs in Connecticut previously, this one was excellent. Check-in was seamless, the space was a good size with all necessary amenities, and it was conveniently located near attractions. Communication was prompt and helpful, even with minor questions. Overall, a very relaxing and enjoyable getaway from NYC.

A Wonderful, charming, historical getaway

This stay was so lovely and charming! The house was gorgeous with beautiful historic features. The bed was unbelievably comfortable! It was so quiet and peaceful, and the portable AC kept the place nice and cool during the rather warm and humid weekend. A great location on a lovely property that we unfortunately didn't get to fully explore, but hope to someday! Judy and Dave were so nice and communicative for the whole stay. I would definitely recommend this stay, especially for a couple!

Beautiful Historic Property with all of the Modern Conveniences

This property was even better than we imagined! Judy and Dave are incredible hosts, who have truly thought of everything when it comes to their guests. They give you plenty of privacy, but are also willing to share their love of history if you are interested. We loved this cozy little home and it's beautiful surroundings. Sure wish we could have stayed longer!
