This place is a slice of heaven! Spotless, cozy, and the pictures don’t do it justice. Our hosts couldn’t have been more accommodating and were very thoughtful. We were in town for a family funeral and the accommodations were perfect. We loved the views over the marsh and we had everything we could have needed and more. We can’t wait to come back in the warmer months.

Ann and Chris are the best hosts and the apartment is lovely. I so enjoyed being right on Indian River and watching the sunrises. Every amenity was available and I know if I needed anything else Chris or Ann would have made it happen. I highly recommend but want to come back, so I hope too many people don’t rent this awesome place (only kidding!). Thanks so much Ann and Chris!

We had such a lovely time. Ann and Chris were so accommodating and the access to the kayaks was amazing! Everything was clean, the views over the river were really nice, and did we mention the kayaking? Cannot recommend this cottage more!

This well-designed, fully equipped, and meticulously maintained guest house is comfortable in every way. Ann and Chris are perfect hosts- good communicators and thoughtful. We loved the location- walking distance to restaurants and shops and close to Hammonasset State Park. We enjoyed the Indian River both from the outside deck and from kayaks. This spot is a birder's paradise.

Ann and Chris are so kind and have done a wonderful job on this rental. I am admittedly a high maintenance, very picky traveler. This is the cleanest rental I have ever stayed in. The bed is very comfortable, as well as the bedding. I was expecting a thin quilt, but it was a nice, thick cozy comforter. It's in a great location, close to so many things and very quiet at night, and the view over the Indian River is gorgeous (I already miss it)! Ann and Chris have even included snacks, water, shampoo, conditioner, and even a sweet note, which was so thoughtful. I would highly recommend this rental to anyone looking to stay in the area and I hope to be back soon!!!

Ann and Chris were so understanding and accommodating after Hurricane Ian messed up our travel plans. We stayed in constant communication and they even offered to do some grocery shopping knowing the time crunch we had to get to a wedding! We brought nasty weather with us but other than that it was one of the best places I’ve ever stayed! Thank you for your hospitality Ann and Chris!!!

We couldn't have been happier with Ann and Chris' house! The view off the deck was beautiful! My husband, girls, and I had a great time kayaking and my daughter tried paddle boarding for the first time and loved it! So close to lots of stores and things to do. We highly recommend staying here!! Ann and Chris, as well as their staff at Indian River Kayaks, were extremely friendly!!

Perfect location and great views. Kitchen was well stocked, but there are enough restaurants nearby if you don't want to cook. Décor was lovely, and the hosts had even put cut flowers in the kitchen. Would definitely stay again!

This is is lovely, attractively decorated, comfortable apartment. We loved the marsh and inlet views and beachy vibe. The host was very pleasant, check in was flawless and walking to town past wonderful historical era homes was easy. If you are a kayaking enthusiast, this spot is even more of a plus for you.

Ann and Chris are great hosts. Within minutes of asking if there was a tea kettle in the apartment, an electric tea kettle was provided. Ann and Chris checked in with us often.
The location is within walking distance of several restaurants and nice views of the Indian River and the marina. We were able to enjoy our breakfast coffee and tea on the deck as well as grill for dinner. The apartment is welcoming and has a nice view of the river as well as providing some wildlife sightings. We are already planning a summer getaway.

This beautifully renovated and spacious cottage is tucked away in a quiet and peaceful spot by a river, with a view over the surrounding marsh land. It's walking distance to Main St., Clinton restaurants and shops, as well as to a nearby marina, with more eateries. The cottage itself is super clean and comfortable, and Chris and Ann went out of their way to make sure we had everything we needed. Use of kayaks or SUPs is included with the rental - we really enjoyed bird watching as we paddled down the river and out to the Sound. Overall a wonderful place to stay!

Ann and Chris were great with communication before and during the visit. The cottage has a wonderful New England feel and the view is spectacular! It was a great place for me, my husband and son to stay while visiting family and friends. We got to go out paddling, enjoy the views and relax. The BBQ on the deck and full kitchen made for easy meals when we didn’t feel like eating out. There was plenty of room for the three of us to relax when the weather wasn’t cooperating. All around a great stay! Would definitely come back!

Comfortable, tasteful, immaculate, well-located
Everything in the listing and previous reviews is accurate. The apartment is tastefully decorated, furnished to be comfortable, with a well-stocked pantry. We enjoyed eating and gabbing on the deck, which has an engaging vista of the marina. It's quiet at night and the AC cools the entire place well. The hosts are attentive but not intrusive. It's not beach front but being walking distance from downtown Clinton made up for that. Trust the reviews.

CT Shoreline Getaway
We were looking to spend some time on the beach and try some restaurants and this lovely place in Clinton was convenient for both. Very comfortable and great deck for early evening Happy Hours. Would absolutely recommend! Thanks to our hosts Ann & Chris.

A very enjoyable stay. The guest house is clean, comfortable and well-stocked. We especially enjoyed sitting on the deck watching the birds nesting in the marshes and boats on the river. Having the opportunity to kayak out to the sound was a wonderful experience.

The owners were very welcoming and accommodating, the place was beautiful, clean and relaxing. The location was great too as it is situated within walking distance to town, the harbor and restaurants. I am hoping to stay there again.

The Perfect Place
I use HomeAway a lot, and I have to say this has been the very best experience of all (and I've had many others). The house was spotless, high-end and thoughtfully outfitted for a short or long stay. Chris and Ann were wonderful hosts--from the warm welcome to intuiting what you might need to a visit at the end to see how things went. The ability to use kayaks was a HUGE bonus (went out four times), and their crew members, especially Matt and Sara, were superb. And it's a great location--walkable to town, with lots to see in the general area. Overall, a TEN!

Ideal shoreline base
The Indian River Marina apartment was perfect for our week-long visit to friends and family in the area. It's well-designed and equipped, comfortable, beautifully sited, and peaceful in the mornings and evenings, when it counts. The kayak business can be busy, but we never had a problem the daytime bustle. It was fun to watch the kayakers come and go, and the included free use of a kayak was a great perk. This is not an old-fashioned, sandy beach cottage that lends itself to lazy days at home--there's a deck in full sun much of the day, and no other private outdoor space--but as a base for other activities it's ideal.

Beautiful and easy!
The property was very well kept and quaint. The owners were excellent. We can't wait to visit again.
