A beautiful well-designed house filled with charm as well as the modern conveniences. And that back patio and yard are so large, comfortable, quiet...such a relaxing retreat. Beds are very comfortable, as is the entire house. We already loved the area and absolutely loved the house, which is convenient to everything.

A perfect summer escape that's still close to everything. We had such fun during our annual visit to Westport staying here! We loved that it's so close to Westport Point and the Sea Farms, and just a few minutes drive to the beach. We had plenty of space indoors and a great backyard to explore. Tracy was a great host, and provided extra supplies when the hurricane was predicted. We managed just fine, and really enjoyed our visit. Thanks!

We stayed at this beautiful little cottage in Westport for a week in August - two grandparents, and our family of four (4.5yr old and 8yr old). We enjoyed being so close to the beaches (Horseneck and Gooseberry Isle) and spent most of our days there. The fire table out back was perfect way to end the evening with delicious s'mores (ingredients provided by our gracious host Tracy!). Tracy was easy to communicate with and responsive, and even sent us a reminder for trash day! Would recommend for small/young families! Couple of helpful details for families: - Further up Main Rd is Lee's Market which is fully stocked and much closer than heading into one of the bigger towns for groceries. There is also a great fresh fish shop and a gas station. - Wouldn't recommend the bike lane for young kids, its along busy roads and probably best for the experienced bikers (which you'll see many of). - Although the house sleeps 6 comfortably, there were only 4 chairs for the dinning room table. We didn't try the camp chairs or pulling over a chair from the living room, in the end, with two smaller kids we ending up eating in shifts so it worked out fine. - Plenty of chairs to sit on to enjoy the BEAUTIFUL and peaceful backyard - both camp chairs and Adirondack-style chairs. We spied so many birds, bats, bunnies, squirrels, and even a toad! The only two things that could make it better would be a picnic table and a clothesline to hang wet stuff after the beach. - The twin beds are HIGH, not a big deal for the 8yr old, the 4yr old needed to stand on a box to get a boost up. - We found window and box fans in the hall closet which helped keep the first floor cool along with the ceiling fans. The window AC units in the bedrooms worked well. - We had 3 cars (small SUVs/cross-over) and just fit in the driveway if pulled bumper-to-bumper. Parking overnight on Main Rd was not a problem though, and inevitably one of the cars was parked there for ease of access.

We had a great time at Tracy's home in Westport. We were celebrating our 10th anniversary and wanted to do something special. Westport was a great destination itself as well as an easy launching point to explore the nearby beaches and islands. On foul weather days, we were very comfortable relaxing at the house and enjoying the private backyard. Tracy was easy to communicate with and responded quickly to our questions about the house and the general Westport area. Tracy also made our arrival more colorful, we found fresh-cut flowers in the kitchen on our arrival. We look forward to returning.

Well, at first I thought, “what a sweet farm house and what a lovely yard!” As time passed, I realized a few things: 1. There was no note upon arrival giving guests info ie wifi, local recommendations-zero info. 2. My bedroom was quite smelly and I soon realized (after sniffing around) that the sheets needed washing as I think they were damp and then dried. It stunk! 3. I reached out to the owner to give them what I thought could be helpful feedback i.e. The place needed more dish soap, paper towels, the stinky sheet story and lastly that fact that the only bathroom was not very clean. I did NOT receive a text back which frankly was uncool. I imagine the owners are new at renting out their home but honestly, I feel it is common sense to respond to a guest that just paid money to stay at their home.

My husband and I stayed for over a week at the property and absolutely loved the house, yard, and location. The property is walking distance from historic Westport village and just a short bike ride to Horseneck Beach (along a new bike lane). Tracy was a fantastic host and extraordinarily accommodating. The house itself was very clean and well-appointed. We would definitely stay here again!

My husband and I spent five weeks in late spring and the space worked well for the two of us. The location near the historic Westport Point marina and storybook yard enhanced the overall experience. In summer, the lovely, super helpful owners plan to install A/C's in the second floor bedrooms where they will be needed. We are walkers and bikers and the spot was a perfect starting point for both. With the best local grocery store just a few miles down the road, trips were quick and efficient especially during the period when eating out wasn't an option. With two beaches within walking or biking distance, the location and charm of this vintage cottage made for a very special late spring, early summer stay.
