Fantastic property near the beach
This over-garage apartment was beautifully appointed and incredibly comfortable. Walk out the door and you are at the private beach in less than 2 minutes. Lovely water views from the living room. The host had so many thoughtful extras like beach towels and sand toys, water bottles in the refrigerator, etc. We wojle absolutely recommend.

Stone's throw from private beach - literally
Visited in May 2024 - this is a wonderful, clean, stay in a second-floor carriage house, literally a stone's throw from a private sandy beach. Fully stocked kitchen, laundry, with convenient beach chairs and umbrellas, toys for the kids. WiFi is spotty, but who wants to do work when the beach is across the street?!? Highly recommended!

The owner gone had thought of everything right down to the fact that you may actually need saran wrap or aluminum in the kitchen to having all of the needs for the bath. This was our first VRBO experience where there was plenty of towels, chairs, and activities for everyone to enjoy while laid out and well thought out property very impressed and look forward to returning.

September Getaway
There is so much to do in southeast Connecticut between New London, Foxwoods, Mystic, Niantic, Madison, etc. And always great to come “home” in the evening to this VRBO. Second consecutive September stay and certainly won’t be the last. Dawn has truly earned the “super host” title!
