About this house rental

Located in Shelton, this attractive house for $129 per night is a great choice for your next break. Welcome to Pleasant Valley Trails. A rustic Mid-Century home on scenic private property overlooking pond. The home was built from the wood and stone taken from the property. Next to state hiking trails, winery, and pick-your-own farm, we are within 30 minutes drive to Bridgeport, Fairfield, New Haven and the Connecticut Shoreline. Trails for hiking & snowshoeing are onsite. This is an ideal spot for relaxing and watching wildlife. Pleasant Valley Trails has 42 acres of fields and forest with blazed trails that connect to other trails in the White Hills area of Shelton. The pond attracts wild life which may be seen from the house. The front door (white) is accessed by key which will be provided by lock box. Feel free to park near the front door for easy access. The rental unit is the original house. It was built in 1952 and has approximately 1200 square feet of living space. The house was added onto in the mid 1960's and that area is used by the owner when in Shelton for business.

Old fashioned quaint cabin with hand made shelving and cabinetry. Very quiet, set in the woods overlooking a beautiful piece of land & pond. Don’t go alone… a bit spooky, but very nice. The place was very clean, but could use some work or updating. If you enjoy nature & a beautiful peaceful setting, this place is great.

Home is located back from the road, very quiet. Lots of wildlife outside. Home was built in 1952, all hand made cabinets and lots of built ins. House was very clean. There had been a leak in the roof by the bathroom in the hallway that needs repair. Lots of space inside with a very large eat-in kitchen. Washer and dryer worked great. Easy access to Jones Family Farm and highway.

We came to Connecticut from California to look at colleges. I found this gem and couldn't resist its beautiful charm. The house is surrounded by beautiful tree-lined roads and a very serene view out the windows from the kitchen to the living area. There is a pond in which geese , turtles , and fish live. It was very comfortable and ideal if you appreciate nature and quiet surroundings. The only thing I would recommend is curtains in the living area. It truly was a memorable stay! The owner is very nice, easy to reach if needed. 👍👍🙌

The unit is in a nice area in the country but after I found a tick on me in February we didn't go out. The owners live in the attached unit next door, separated only by a wooden door so ALL the sound goes both ways. You can hear them put dishes away and talk--but rarely--they were super quiet most of the time. They never complained about us being noisy although my son kept later hours due to the time change and could occasionally be loud because of medical issues. The host was responsive and ordered a us a crock pot for our stay when I asked. She met us when we arrived and opened the lock box. Go slowly up the driveway as there is a drainage dip and bumps that cars might bottom out on if low to the ground. The curtains in the master bedroom aren't lined but seem to keep out most light except that they aren't wide enough to cover the windows. I rigged towels, pillows, and a chair to cover the remainder of the window. The kids/twin beds room is terrible though with only white unlined curtains around 2 sides of the room so my 13 year old son couldn't sleep well at all after the sun came up since it was so bright. He said the twin beds at first seemed comfortable but weren't. The queen was fine. Liked the wood floors but they do creak loudly and are uneven in places. You can't turn the WIFI off but can unplug the extender which decreases it. Sign into your own accounts for TV/movies--or maybe I just couldn't figure it out. Plenty of pots and pans and dishes. BYO bedside clocks.

My husband and I loved this property. It is surrounded by trees and the views out of the many large windows of the pond is just beautiful. The stone fireplace and gorgeous wood floors make this house unique. I’d love to go back again!

We were in CT for Christmas and we needed a lace with 2 bedrooms so that my 5 year old and 19 month old could sleep (and not keep each other awake). What we got was do much more. We got a beautiful view, a great place for piddle jumping and leaf throwing, and a warm and cozy place. Thank you for allowing us to stay there and for giving us the history of the property! We had an absolutely great time!!!

This property was built in the 1950’S and needs a lot of updating. The furniture on the website was different from what was in the house. There was a grill that was not useable. The house some insect issues but we’re resolved by an exterminator after we contacted owner. There were other issues but the owner took cate of them in a timely manner. Very quiet area. Roku TV was hard to operate. We had Xfinity in FL so we could get some TV. Overall it is a very quiet and secluded home. Owner very responsive to any issues we had.

It is a great house with an incredibly picturesque view. There is a large pond surrounded by a forest that can be seen from the house and it is a difficult view to leave behind. Will stay again.
