We provide beach chairs, umbrellas, beach toys and coolers. We also have an iron and ironing board for those occasions when wrinkled isn't the look you want. It’s like being home away from home.

The owner was easy to communicate with and the check in process was a breeze. The b ds were comfy and the house was well appointed with everything a guest might need. The property is a 10 minute drive to the USCGA. We walked to breakfast at the Yolk Cafe. There are several places to eat within walking distance.

In one word: comfortable. Plenty of room for my family to sleep in, the air conditioning was quiet and worked quickly. Having the beach pass was perfect, and being provided beach towels, linens, and basic kitchen essentials including paper towels and dish soap made it so we didn’t have to schlepp too much with us. Nancy was very kind and gracious! Would stay again if we want to visit New London, Ocean Beach, or Mystic again!

The home is only a block away from a great children’s park and very close to ocean beach park. It’s also only about 20 minutes from the dinosaur place, which is amazing for young kids and adults. We had a very comfortable stay and all the essentials were already there for. For young children they have the essentials to keep them safe and from melting down, but I will say there are a lot of antiques, beautiful paintings, and breakables throughout…so it’s probably not great for kids that don’t have a firm grasp on behaving yet. Overall we had a great time and the quiet outdoor back patio was a beautiful touch.

Beautiful place, nice neighborhood, excellent location central to ferries, other seafaring towns and sites to visit, and great dining within walking distance. What's more, the hosts provide everything from beach chairs to detergent and everything in between. They even have a great collection of jazz CD's if that's your thing. Highly recommended.
