New Madison beach house - Ocean front- Great views- booking Summer 2024
About this house rental
Nestled in Guilford, this charming house for $1,017 per night is a fantastic option for your next vacation. Searching for the perfect getaway? Look no further than our home on the Madison shoreline, where a private beach and the Long Island Sound are your front yard! It’s perfect for a weekend getaway or the family vacation of a lifetime — in summer AND the winter. Every room in our home has breathtaking views. Whether it’s the sight of the sun rising over the Long Island Sound, or the view of the Neck River trickling along behind the house, you’ll understand why people say that a picture is worth a thousand words. Every window in the house is broad, to provide the perfect view, and storm-resistant. The first floor is "open concept" with a family room, kitchen, dining area, and study. Our front deck is made of Azek and expands the width of the home for views of Falkner’s Island and Long Island Sound. We placed a rock barrier around our private beach for protection and during high tide, the water creates a private pool. The kitchen comes fully stocked with a microwave, oven, dishwasher, dishes, pots and pans, baking sheets, Keurig K-cup coffee machine, toaster, cutting boards, utensils, glasses, mugs, and platters. There are the basics to get you started, including dish soap, toilet paper, dishwasher tablets, cleaning supplies and paper towels. There is a table and several chairs in the breakfast nook, for sharing family dinners or a meal for two! The dining area has a table with 6 chairs, though it can comfortably seat 10. We have four additional chairs available in storage. The master bedroom has a queen size bed, luxury linens, a full closet, dresser, ceiling fan, and TV. The first window overlooks the water and one of the best views of the Long Island Sound. Every morning, you will wake up to one of the most beautiful sunrises in the world. The guest room has a queen size bed, ceiling fan, a roomy closet, and has an ocean facing window. The second guest room has one full bed and one twin bed. The third guest room comes with a bunk bed that sleeps two – perfect for the young kids in your family! The house also comes with fresh linens on all the beds and bath towels for your use. One of my family’s favorite things to do is walk to Guilford’s iconic Red Shack through Grass Island. This scenic stroll takes you through a beautiful nearby beach and is just a mile away from the house. The boat launch is also found on this path. Madison’s downtown area is 3.5 miles from the home. There you will find restaurants, coffee shops, the famous R.J. Julia bookstore, art galleries, cinema, unique shops, and other essentials. Drive ten minutes to outlet stores or to the Shoreline East Train that will take you to Grand Central Station, New York. Nearby tourist attractions include Thimble Island tours, Thimble Island Brewing Co., Stony Creek Brewery, Chamard Vineyards, pick your own fruits at Bishop's Orchards, Mystic Seaport and Aquarium, Submarine Force Museum in Groton, Essex Steam Train and Riverboat Ride and Hammonasset Beach State Park. Our home is also located just 4.5 miles from historic downtown Guilford. Their town center is incredibly walkable and has a variety of restaurants, from Thai to traditional New Haven pizza, for you and your family to enjoy. At our home, you will be able to enjoy the quiet serenity of a private beach while being a short drive away from New Haven and other shoreline communities. We hope that you will create some wonderful memories, as we have, at this home.

We had an incredible stay in Madison. The location was perfect - right on the beach and close to nearby towns. The house was comfortable and well stocked with everything we needed. The beach was perfect and great for our young son who could play in the protected area behind the rocks. Joe was incredibly responsive and helpful throughout our stay.

Amazing location with 360 degrees of beautiful views from this lovely home. The house was spacious, clean and comfortably fit our two families (2 couples and 4 children ages 1-8). The kids especially loved crabbing in the rocks and playing in the waves. The stilted home provides a wonderful shaded area for hanging out on the beach and is a perfect base from all of the day trip adventures— walks, runs, swims, paddle boards, bike rides, etc. Highly recommend!

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this lovely beach home. It worked well for our two families (four adults and four kids), with a large dining table and three living areas including one with a large sectional to watch a movie together. The beds are comfortable and the linens are nice. The deck provides a wonderful spot to relax and take in the view of Long Island Sound. We enjoyed walking around the neighborhood; everyone was so friendly. It was a short drive to explore downtown Madison and spend the day at Hammonasset State Beach. Joe was a helpful and responsive host. A wonderful way to end our summer!

We thoroughly enjoyed this beach house! We loved the private beach, the gorgeous views on all sides, playing in the water, taking walks and comfortable family dinners inside and out. The house is super comfortable and it was a really relaxing week.
5.0
As you can tell by the 5-Star rating above, we had a great week with family, and friends who visited periodically. That said, every effort should be made to ensure the house is safe and all components within are fully serviceable. More specifically, the two consecutive missing ballisters on the deck stairs need to be replaced for safety purposes (especially for little ones);
and the kitchen toaster needs to be replaced (only 2 of the 4 bread slots are operational) and the master bedroom chest of drawers needs to be replaced or repaired; all drawers stick or are hard to slide, and the bottom drawer is missing the middle slide/guide which causes it fall into the structure and makes it very difficult to use. Would also suggest more microwavable bowls and a serving platter or two be added to the kitchen inventory. While these criticisms are intended to improve the overall experience for subsequent guests, we all had a great time!

Fabulous House
When looking for a beach house, it doesn't get more convenient than this house, as it's right on the beach. Myself, my husband, two kids, mother, and in laws stayed here and we all loved it. Joe was very responsive to any questions I had about the house and wants to ensure guests have a great stay, which we did. The house was very clean, the cleanest out of all the houses we have rented through VRBO. They left a bottle of wine and a bouquet of flowers for us which was a really nice touch. We hope to stay here again. Thanks for sharing your wonderful beach house with us!

Peaceful and Relaxing
We had a peaceful, relaxing, and entertaining vacation. Loved falling asleep to the sound of the waves and waking up to the sunrise. Private area with lots to explore in the near by towns with fun shops and great restaurants. Beautifully kept beaches with amazing sunsets. Joe was great to work with and responded quickly throughout the whole process with any questions we had. House is well kept and as lovely as seen in the photos. We had a fabulous time and look forward to returning. Already recommending to friends and family.

Great beachfront property!
We had a great winter beach getaway…the property is just as described, clean, open, with great views of the Sound and the marsh. The home is well-appointed with everything you need and Joe was extremely responsive and helpful every step of the way. The location is fantastic, in a quiet neighborhood on a private beach where you can hear the waves every night. We would love to come back in the summer!

The salt marsh across the street has wonderful sights of seabirds. Joe the owner made everything comfortable and special for us and is very accommodating as well as responsive. Looking forward to returning!

This house was a supreme choice to stay. The house is clean with comfortable beds. It is big enough for the whole family. There are beautiful views of the water from most of the rooms. The deck is a great size. Since it is located right on a private beach, children can play in the water while you watch them or join them.. Because of its unique location, there is a treasure trove of shells that collects near the house. there are tons of lady slippers, scallops, oysters and even conch. Book this house without hesitation , you won't regret it. If you go in with someone, you can split the cost.

Summer family vacation
This is a spectacular spot and lovely house. The views from inside the house are beautiful. Sitting in the living room or on the deck, it feels like you are on a boat looking at the water below. And we spent much time on the beach -- which is mostly isolated. You feel like you're in another world. As others wrote, the house is very clean and works well. The first floor is laid out so that there are different spaces for people to be in and the kitchen is great to cook in. The owner is remarkably responsive and we felt well taken care of. We are making plans to return to paradise next year.
