About this cottage rental

Enjoy a Coastal New England vacation from your charming arts and crafts era waterfront cottage. The house's many windows make it bright and airy, with a fantastic breeze coming off the water. You are in perfect location to paddle to nearby beaches with complimentary use of kayaks and paddle boards, and guests with a boat will enjoy the convenience of the dock. The home's Stonington location is close by to attractions in Mystic and Watch Hill, so there is lots to do. Saltwater Farm Vineyard is just up the cove from the Cottage and Stonington Marina is three doors down.

The cottage features three upstairs bedrooms and a first floor sunroom with a queen bed. The master bedroom has a queen size bed, the second bedroom has a queen bed, and the third bedroom has twin bed with a single trundle bed beneath it. There is also a queen size sleep sofa in the living room. All white linens are professionally laundered, including fresh duvets. The floors are all hard surface with beach vacation in mind. The bathrooms have marble and tile surfaces, and the large capacity washer and dryer make washing large loads of beach towels easy.

The kitchen is equipped with cookware, a Cuisinart food processor and Kitchen Aid stand mixer. There is an outdoor gas grill. The dining rooms many windows make it an inviting place to to eat, or if you prefer, dine outside on the deck, or under the pergola. The living room is comfortable and a great place to play the board games kept in the big armoire, that also serves as beach towel storage.

The outdoor spaces include an upper deck ideal for private sunbathing, a large lower deck perfect for cocktails and a patio with pergola for shade. The dock is a nice place to relax and take in the water view. There is an outdoor fireplace by the water that is great for making 'Smores for the kids. The yard is spacious and is planted with apple and pear trees, as well as blueberry bushes.

The best thing about the place is the easy access to Sandy Point and Napatree Beaches, accessible by boat just outside the cove. For nature lovers, Wequetequock Cove and Barn Island offer a wealth of bird species including Osprey and Herons. You will truly have a spectacular day on the water.

From mid-summer on, you can easily catch Blue Crabs right from the dock. Kids will enjoy catching snapper blues in the cove with light tackle. Serious fisherman will love the world class Striper, Fluke, Black Sea Bass and Blackfish fishing at famous spots like Watch Hill Reef, Sugar Reef and Fisher's Island that are just outside the cove.

It was a great place for family to come together from CT, MO, NY and Canada. It was a little more rustic than anticipated. But clean, organized and well stocked with basics. A very friendly host. A valuable item was left behind and Paul drove all the way back from a family event so it could be retrieved before flying out the next day. Above and beyond. Thank you.

We stayed in this area a few years ago on a property also available by Paul. We love the huge if the area and being on the water. We didn’t do too much but that was the whole intent of our getaway. Our dogs loved the property and trying to catch the bunny resident. They also loved the dock to check out the water activities. The house was comfortable and we didn’t want for anything.

The property was as described. The added game room was a pleasant surprise. Although the house is old it was very clean and well taken care of. I wish we had more time so we could have rented a boat to spend time on the water. I would definitely rent again.

Three couples gathered for a little getaway. The house is small but very comfortable with a great patio for relaxing and another lovely fire pit area by the water. Beds were super comfy, and all the linens and towels (including beach towels) were of excellent quality. We enjoyed dropping in paddle boards and exploring the beauty right out the front door:)

Great house for a family gathering. Lots of different outdoorr spaces to hang out -- alone, in pairs, or all together. Kitchen has everything you could possibly need to cook and prepare even the most elaborate meals. Games galore. And a wonderfully helpful and communicative owner.
