Our two-week stay at this Branford cottage was nothing short of perfection. Nestled near Long Island Sound, the location offers a short walk to the neighborhood beach and a serene atmosphere. The cottage itself is cozy and well-appointed, providing all the comforts of home.
What truly sets this rental apart are the gracious hosts. Their warmth and attentiveness ensured we felt welcome throughout our stay. Their adorable dogs, Elsie and Cookie, added an extra layer of charm to the experience.
Whether you're seeking a peaceful retreat or a base to explore the Connecticut shoreline, this cottage is an ideal choice. We're already dreaming of our next visit!

Really great to spend time in a beautiful place where I was lucky to grow up. Our cottage was like our home for 3 weeks and hosts nearby for any questions. Friends who came to visit also loved it. .

The beach cottage was perfect for our family. We were in Connecticut for a graduation ceremony with family coming from 3 different states. We were only 10-15 min from the university, had access to many restaurants and were able to relax and spend time together in a cozy,very well furnished and beautifully decorated home. It’s a lovely area to stroll around and a short walk to the beach. We sincerely recommended staying here, we thoroughly enjoyed our visit.

A beautiful house, great location. Things close by to do, eat, or whatever. Also a comfortable place to do nothing. Most likely going to try to stay here again next year

As soon as we stepped through the door of this home, it was clear how our stay was going to be. This home was cozy, bright, clean, well stocked and all around relaxing! Due to circumstances out of control of the owner and community the beach down the street was closed, but that didn’t take away from the beauty of the community and it gave us a chance to explore and find a public beach only 20 minutes away. I couldn’t recommend this home enough for someone that is looking to relax, unwind and reconnect with family and/or friends!

Great cottage. Clean, comfortable and cozy. It had everything we needed. We wanted to try a new place that we had never been to and to do the Thimble Islands cruise. Rosso Vino restaurant was good. Food was delicious!

The house is lovely, comfortable, and well-equipped. The location is charming and the area was a delight to explore. There were Osprey flying right over the house taking fish to the nest. We enjoyed the trails and the quiet. I grew up in SE CT, so I'm used to a beautiful coast, but this area is impressive. My niece and I had a lovely stay. Thank you to our host.
