About this house rental

Welcome to our beautifully updated home, in a peaceful beach neighborhood. Sweet Spot Getaway is a newly renovated charmer, nestled in a quiet cul-de-sac, in a neighborhood with private beach access. Take a 5 minute stroll to the beach, or drive 6 minutes to the town beach. Our home features 3 spacious bedrooms, with the main bedroom on the first floor, 2.5 updated bathrooms, a garage, and a large, open family room. There is a chef's kitchen with all the necessary amenities and new appliances. Grill and chill outside on our covered and uncovered patios, or relax in our central air conditioned, open family room. There is beautiful wood flooring and central A/C controlled by Nest thermostats throughout the entire house.

Sweet Spot Getaway is easy to get to, as it is about a 5 minute drive off the highway, and accessible to the Westbrook Shoreline East train station for access into NYC. It is the perfect location to work from home and be inspired with creativity as you relax on the quiet private neighborhood beach. Our fast Wi-Fi speeds make remote working easy.

Have an event at the Water's Edge Resort or the Elk's Lodge? Attending a graduation at Yale or another university? Our home can serve as a perfect family friendly alternative to staying on the resort while being only a 1 minute drive to Water's Edge, a 5 minute drive to the Elk's Lodge, and an easy 35 minute drive to Yale. Our large chef's kitchen is modern and stocked with everything you need to cook for your family. We know how challenging it can be travelling with small children. Our Sweet Spot Getaway will give you the space you need for napping, meals, relaxing time, playing games in the backyard, and being able to cook in the kitchen or BBQ on the outdoor propane grill.

There is plenty of space to spread out, with 2 bedrooms upstairs, and a large main bedroom with en-suite bathroom, downstairs. The main bedroom has plenty of room for a portable crib (not provided) for those travelling with infants. Our home has ample space for a family reunion, or a change of scenery to spend the holidays with your friends and family. It is also perfect for a solo trip or a romantic getaway. If you need baby gear during your stay, we recommend renting cribs, car seats, strollers, toys and more from BabyQuip. Visit https://www.babyquip.com/a/y57bjq to make a reservation.

Enjoy delicious restaurants, local shopping at 2 different outlet malls, wineries, and of course, the local beaches. There are many surrounding attractions that are easy to reach, including Mohegan Sun and Foxwoods Casinos, the Essex Steam Train & Riverboat, Gillette Castle, the Katherine Hepburn Cultural Arts Center, Goodspeed Opera House, Mystic Aquarium, and Mystic Seaport.

Whether planning a family beach vacation, a Fall foliage weekend, or a romantic winter getaway, our home is perfect at any time of year. Our neighborhood is a lovely place to take a quiet stroll or a relaxing bike ride. Come discover the beauty of the New England coastline!

Together with our cousins we had such a lovely weekend stay. The house is beautiful, clean, and exactly as described. It is a short walk to the beach, and the kids enjoyed riding their bikes there. We drove to the bigger town beach one of the days which was also beautiful. Our favorite part was to hang on the covered patio at night time after dinner. Thank you for offering your home to us! Highly recommended.

We had a really nice stay at this house! It was very clean, beautifully updated with an open floor plan and in a quiet neighborhood. The communication before, during and after our stay with the owner / property manager was excellent. The amenities that were provided made it easy to not have to pack so much extra stuff (eg beach chairs, sheets, towels, shampoo/conditioner, etc). The only downside to the stay was while the beach was an easy, short walk, it was not accessible during high tide and during low tide was very small with no room to spread out. We ended up going to the town beach instead which was nice and pretty empty (8 minutes away; non-resident daily rate was $40 a day). If we end up back in Westbrook would definitely consider this property again!

The only reason I didn't give all 5 stars was because we're from FL and CT beaches just don't compare to our soft sand, no rock beaches. My poor feet aren't used to the rocks and shells. The neighborhood was very nice! The house was very clean.

We loved our time at the house. Kevin was a great host and was very responsive if we had any questions. The location to the beach is perfect, especially with smaller children. The house was extremely clean and a great layout for two families to stay together. I would highly recommend!

This is our first time staying at a house for a vacation and we had the best experience! This house is the best vacation home ever! Not only is it immaculate, but the entire set up was like a page out of Better Homes and Gardens magazine! I loved how it came with all of the amenities of a lived in home, plus more! I loved that I was able to find all of the utensils and dishes and all kitchen necessities for our needs during our stay. And then the beautiful private beach thats 5 minutes walk from the house! My husband and I took a stroll to that beach to catch the sunrise that you can witness coming up from the left side. It was so beautiful and serene! Thank you so much for this wonderful experience!
