About this house rental
We do not rent long term in the summer. Limited full weeks available.
Beautifully renovated, oak kitchen, cathedral ceilings, exposed wood beams, glass-enclosed seating area. Dining room seats 6. 1 acre landscaped/planted land. Open view to the protected bird estuary/inlet. One and a half blocks from both a quiet and a public beach. Dead-end, quiet street. Weber Gas barbecue with smoker and rotisserie, outside pit fire and wood/pellet burning stove.
House is equipped with all your not-so-basic needs in mind, including full kitchen, Secure-Internet, and Apple TV. Large outside dining patio table, bird bath as well as a beautiful garden.
BMW Jacuzzi 2 bedrooms, Master has cal-king, sleigh bed and 2 BR has brand new sofa bed (full size with tempurpedic mattress) and foldable crib. Bathroom has shower and bathtub.
Children's Sand and water playgrounds. Beach volleyball and all water sports available. Cosey Beach is a charming, 1920’s Nautical New England village, nestled on one of East Haven's award winning beaches. It’s a stretch of beach that lies between two tidal inlets along the Long Island Sound in East Haven. This beach has earned a national award by the National Resources Defense Council largely due to their monitoring system and pollution control effects used on the beach. NRDC named it “A Beach Buddy” and voted it one of the five top picks for clean summer spots in the East Coast. Another reason for the cleaner water is due to the two tidal inlets on each side of the beach and the natural cleansing that occurs as these tidal inlets move the water in and out. Our house is on one of the inlets.
You can order PeaPod from Stop and Shop to meet you here or we supply all the not-so-basics, therefore if you choose, basic shopping is not required!
Just minutes away from cosmopolitan New Haven, with great restaurants, little Italy and the best brick oven pizza ever! We allow non-shedding, hypo-allergenic pets ONLY. Under 20 lbs.

A lil gem away from the busy day to day. The house and property was well maintained and has a lot of amenities that allowed us to stay "home" and enjoy.
Thank you Linda!

Listing was accurate. Communication was plentiful. I mistakenly missed the text with check in info so I met the lovely East Haven police and frantically tried getting in touch with Linda. She was very gracious when I realized, and admitted, my mistake. Would stay again.

My favorite experience was sitting under the gazebo, drinking a cup of tea, listening to the birds and watching wildlife. Beautiful flowers in the garden. It's a very easy walk to beach and Sandpiper restaurant. Check out the Shore Line Trolley Museum in East Haven. You pass by it on the way to the house. Yale is close by, the Peabody Museum was cool to see.
Cute town, and great location.

We really enjoyed our stay at this special cottage. Set on a dead end street with views of the bird sanctuary and the most peaceful wind chime made our time here very relaxing. The cottage is very well kept and had all the comforts of home. We enjoyed hiking with the dogs in brandford and great dinners in new haven both within 15 minutes. Super friendly beach town. The owner was very responsive and very accommodating.

It was a weekend at the beach in the winter. There was a lot of snow on the ground but the walk and the driveway were clear. The house was warm when I went in and it stayed cozy. There is a wonderful restaurant "The Sandpiper" down by the beach, about 2 blocks away. The owner was very attentive and made sure I had everything I needed.

I cannot say enough about what a wonderful and relaxing time we had at this lovely beach cottage. The home is very clean, with plenty of comfortable seating and very comfortable beds. You are also supplied with nice bedding and towels, and appliances like a dishwasher and clothes washer and dryer to meet all your needs. The gardens are truly breathtaking and make this cottage magical! We spent a lot of time just relaxing outside enjoying the gardens and amazing bird estuary. My family also greatly enjoyed the beach that is just a short walk away. Not only is this cottage a wonderful and relaxing treat the owner is absolutely Amazing to deal with! Honestly, she could not have been more accommodating and kind to our family and I truly cannot thank her enough for her kindness and hospitality. This cottage is truly about relaxing and enjoying the beach life!

What you see if what you get--a lovely cottage retreat just a few blocks from the beach. Linda provides all you need and then some. She answered all our questions promptly, checked in with us during our stay, and had amazing support staff available to help out with anything we needed. The air conditioning and fans kept the house a very comfortable temperature. The water pressure was good and all the appliances were in good working order. The cost was higher than we are accustomed to, but certainly in keeping with the other rental properties in that area for that time of the year. My husband and I and our two girls loved our stay at this clean, beautifully furnished home. Families with very active kids may want to know that there is a gorgeous glass curio cabinet in the living room. We had bought the extra insurance offered through Home Away from Home and thankfully didn't need it, but we definitely kept a careful eye on our busy 7-year old while she was in the house. We were a little stressed out on the few stormy days making sure the kids wouldn't knock over anything precious, and we stayed outside most of the time. If you are a garden enthusiast, you'll love what she has planted. We even saw swallow-tail caterpillars on the fennel plants! If you are a garden appreciator, you'll love being on the hammock or in the screened porch, watching the osprey nests across the street. We picked up groceries at a local supermarket for picnics, breakfasts, and dinners. There are two restaurants within walking distance and plenty that deliver if you don't want to cook. There is also a pellet stove for chillier evenings as the months progress.

Lovely home with comfortable feel. We sat outside in the morning with coffee looking at the beautifully maintained garden and enjoyed the evenings in the screened enclosure. The beach is a three minute walk which we often did several times a day. We also sat on the beach at night looking at the moon. The local restaurants were terrific. We also had lunch at 2 local marinas. We could not believe we were only an hour and 15 minutes from home. It felt as if we were far away at the beach! We would highly recommend this experience to anyone looking for a relaxing week away in a great surrounding.

My girlfriends and I rented this house for a small gathering for a colleague and it was everything we needed. Not to big and not too small. I wish we had more time to really take in the surroundings and the beautiful garden. The driveway was big enough to provide parking for our guests, the rooms were cozy and comfortable, and the living room space was perfect for our gathering. The owner Linda was very nice and personable and was available to answer any questions. We rent homes at least 2 times a year so I am confident that we will add this location to our favorites list!

Clean and tidy little house with cute touches, like a pellet wood stove, stone tile backsplash in the bath, and arched windows. The yard, though, is what's special! Overlooking a marshland, close to the beach, a white picket fence surrounds a well planted lawn furnished with fire pit, grill, 2 picnic table areas and a hammock. Great place to stay for Yale events - 15 minutes to Old Campus with a route that is convenient to good grocery stores and nice neighborhoods.
