The outdoor space at this house is amazing, everything you could possible want was available and in perfect working condition. We used the large outdoor grill, and the Blackstone every day, even breakfast could be made outside. We had no previous experience with a Blackstone now our family wants one too. The lawn area was perfect for the young kids (2 and 6) when not at the beach. The choices of seating spaces for eating and relaxing gave everyone a choice they could be happy with. What a wonderful place to relax and enjoy family!

We had an amazing stay at Mike's beautiful home! The house was spotless and very comfortable! The view from the porch was stunning and all of the amenities the house had to offer (air conditioning, kayaks, beach chairs, and more) made our stay extra special. The beach in front of the house was so fun and we loved swimming and looking for sea glass. A great time was had by all!!!!

We had the most incredible stay. The property was amazing. The house was fully stocked, clean, comfortable, well laid out, beautiful views, right on the beach/water. Great outdoor seating, large tables for outdoor meals, fire pits and all the extra amenities-fishing rods, kayaks, paddle board, and more. The instructions and suggestions were extremely helpful. Communication was great. Highly recommend this property!!!

We had a lovely stay at Mark's house. Everything was in order and Mark was very nice and communicative. The bed in the master bedroom was super comfy and it was great to go to sleep with the sound of the waves.
The house was clean and very homey. Really good for families.
Thanks!

This is such an awesome property! Mark and Angie were just wonderful to work with and everything about the property is perfect. Beach, yard, clean house with all amenities and central AC a plus after days in the sun. We could not say enough good things about our stay and will definitely be back!

The house is very inviting and has a relaxing vibe, dominated by incredible views and immediate access to the beach. Super for a stay with kids (as we did) but seems also great for a romantic get away. Mark was incredibly responsive and accommodating. We would certainly come again.

An amazing property right on the beach. Sunrises were breathtaking! Comfortable and very clean accommodations. The shower was always hot, even with our big crew. Mark was incredibly responsive and over delivered. We had an amazing stay- Thank you!

Had a wonderful 2-week stay at Mark & Angie’s vacation home. Unbeatable location, with a wall of windows on both floors to enjoy the water views. Outside, had great covered and open patio space, and a lovely lush garden area, with the sandy beach right at our feet. Too late in season for swimming but beach was very clean and we enjoyed walking and shell-collecting on the beach every day. Enjoyed glorious sunrises over the water every morning and moonrises over the water at night! Had a day of high winds that gave us some entertaining surf to watch as well!
Kitchen had high-end appliances and the quality and quantity of cookware and dinnerware was really impressive. Bed linens and towels were plush and plentiful. Even the cleaning and paper supplies were more generous than I have ever seen in a rental. When we mentioned to the owner that we love to read, he purchased additional lamps and even put out an eclectic selection of books for us!
Mark and Angie are outstanding hosts!! They gave us a lovely bottle of wine as a welcome gift and provided wonderfully detailed information about the cottage, where to find things, how to operate things. They even provided a great list of their favorite restaurants, which was extremely helpful. They were readily available by cell phone to answer any questions, and Mark came over promptly to show us how to use the smart TV and Alexa (!!) and the gas fire-pit. You could not find a lovelier vacation spot or more thoughtful, helpful and generous hosts. Thank you for sharing your home with us and creating such a spectacular vacation for us!

Beautiful place to stay on the beach. We were very happy with how clean the property was and the communication with the owners was great. Spent 3 perfect days on the beach with my two younger children. We will be coming back to this rental in the future!

Mark’s home was perfect and in a great location, right on the beach. The slider off the living room to the backyard made the inside and outside flow beautifully. We spent our time outside enjoying the multiple seating areas and the covered patio with the fire-pit was a wonderful spot to hang out when it briefly rained. All in all a spectacular rental and Mark was accessible and very helpful. We hope to return in the near future!

We rented for a long weekend to attend and celebrate my daughters graduation from Sacred Heart University. The location was perfect. The house was awesome. Enough room for all of us to have our own space. The yard is so inviting. We thoroughly enjoyed our time and hope we are able to stay again in the future.

If you’re in the fairfield area for a visit, this is a phenomenal place to stay. Good distance Tom downtown fairfield but being right on the beach is a nice way to get away. Loved jt

Owner, Mark, provided a very complete information sheet that was great. Every time we had a question we referred to it and found our answer. It also included a list of nearby restaurants that we found helpful. And when I asked if they happen to have a high chair, he provided one plus a stroller.
We would definitely stay there again.

My sister and I gathered our families to celebrate Christmas together with my mother who recently sold her house nearby and moved into assisted living. The house was great, and even better and bigger than it appears in the photos. Kitchen is fully stocked and big enough to cook in, furniture is all comfortable and well cared for. Lots of outdoor seating and hanging out-- even in December. The beach is great for walking; you can walk out the door and walk down to a nature preserve for a lovely 2-mile beach walk.

Host went above and beyond in every aspect. Would award him “Best Host“ award. Property exceeded all expectations inside and out! Don’t hesitate to book!

The location can’t be beat… right on the water… and the house has EVERYTHING you might need - lifejackets, kayaks, paddleboards, fire pit, etc etc etc. We had a wonderful time!
2.5
Mark is a great host who reached out before the booking to check-in and made himself available to answer any questions. The house was a perfect fit for us and provided a ton of entertainment for the kids and possibilities to relax for the adults. The house is spacious, well-lit, with amazing views of the ocean and beach. We throughly enjoyed ourselves and would love to stay again in the future.
My 3 and 4-year olds loved playing in the sand, riding the paddle-board (with us, of course), and pretend fishing in the small pools created by the shifting sands. The water is so calm and perfect for those folks wanting a gentle entry into the water.
Even though we didn't take advantage of the kayaks, it was great to know they were available to us. The inside of the home is beautiful, comfortable, and well-maintained. The scented air freshener was a bit overpowering, but simple enough to remove during our stay. We also couldn't figure out how to get the dvd player working, but there were enough subscription channels available to find entertainment on the two rainy days we had. Overall, a great stay that I'd definitely recommend.

House is gorgeous and has all the amenities ! Mark was a great host. Will definitely be back!

My family loved our vacation at this property, and the property is great for kids. There is even a playground designed for kids 2-5 years old two blocks away. With that said, I would not recommend bringing a child under two years old to the property.
2.5
We have stayed at the properly for 5 nights. Weather was great, kids had a lot of fun. We loved the fact that the property had a grass section where kids could play. Beach was awesome! It was close distance to few restaurants and walking distance to ice-cream place which we visited every day. Overall, great vacation.

We just got home from our long weekend at Mark & Angie’s property and are already talking about going back. We knew we wanted to visit Connecticut and had no particular town in mind, but when we came across this house we were sold! Everything from booking/communicating and arrival/departure was seamless and the property itself far exceeds all expectations. Mark and Angie provide a few pages of everything you need to know about the house and Milford which was super helpful and thoughtful. There were new upgrades to the house that were not captured in the listing photos which were all amazing surprises (as if it could get any better)! I promise, the pictures do not do it enough justice. Everything we could possibly need or thought about packing (and more) was already available for us. The house was spotless. We made s’mores and relaxed by the multiple fire pits available. We walked the gorgeous, shell-filled beach filled with sand and the kids got a kick out of the metal detector left for us! I could write 1000 more words and still have not one thing negative to say. Our stay was everything we could hope for and more. We will definitely be back!

Mark and Angie did a phenomenal job offering unparalleled hospitality throughout the ENTIRE process of our vacation- from booking to checking out. They were easy to communicate with whenever there were any concerns and listened carefully and thoughtfully to our plans and ideas, facilitating all of them to the best they could. As a family with young, young children, they could not have made our vacation any more wonderful. They went above and beyond, not only offering access to all the amenities (boats, floats, toys, beach towels, etc) on the property but even sharing of their own baby items to help ease our travelling!! They are careful to supply all you could need from coffee to detergent and are always available for suggestions on where to go and what to do. This vacation home is worth every penny!

We just had a wonderful week at this lovely beach house which we chose based on the pictures and other reviews, and both were very accurate! Mark was very quick to respond to our questions prior to booking and during our stay, and we appreciated the very detailed written notes for the rental, so we had all the information we needed during our vacation.We liked the fact the home sits in from the beach and has a nice grass lawn with beautiful flower pots and even a raised bed with fresh herbs! Also being situated back from the beach gives more privacy. The property is outfitted with everything you’d want in a beach house...ample tables, umbrellas, beach chairs, beach towels, flotation devices, kayaks, paddle board, blender etc...we enjoyed both the gas and wood fire pits and having the outdoor sink/bar area as well as having an the outdoor shower with a separate foot shower to rinse off the sand was very convenient.The property was immaculate inside and out and everything was in good working order. The beds were comfortable and they provided nice quality towels and linens and plenty of paper products, soap etc...and the fresh welcome flowers were very thoughtful. The location is very convenient to several major grocery stores, and a great lobster place and creamery are an easy half mile walk. The beach was great. The water is clear and refreshing with minimal boat traffic that made it perfect for kayaking, paddle boarding, swimming, and just floating around relaxing. We loved that it was a nice long beach perfect for walking and collecting shells and sea glass. (I would recommend water shoes because there are a lot of shells.)It is obvious that Mark and Angie take great pride in their beautiful home and have gone out of their way to ensure that anyone who stays there has all that they need and has a great time. We definitely would recommend this property and hope to come back again!
