family weekend getaway
The property is ideal for families or groups of people. The home is well maintained with comfortable bedding and a large yard for relaxing or playing. We enjoyed our brief visit with young children who loved running around the backyard. I would note for future guests that the air conditioning provided is not central but a unit in the living room and one bedroom.

Family Weekend Getaway
We had a terrific stay at this home. The owner was very responsive and I felt comfortable with the level of communication I was able to have with Charlie. He helped address any questions I had while planning our vacation, and while enjoying it. There was a quaint downtown area not too far from the home. We were able to easily access the grocery store when needed. Popular beaches were about 20-30 minutes away. Very comfortable stay for 6 people. We had eight family members and we easily placed an air mattress in the home gym area! We enjoyed our stay very much.

Ideal CT Coast Rental
If you are looking for the perfect CT coast rental; can’t recommend this house enough. Very efficient home, well set up and surprisingly spacious. Exactly as advertised. Perfect neighbor within steps of the coast line and a nice walk into town. Very good property manager. A must rent if you are seeking a visit to Old Saybrook.

Great weekend
This property was great! Very clean, lots of space in the house, big fridge and kitchen area too! The backyard was good minus the grass being a little rough on the feet and a few uncovered pipes sticking up. But overall great!

Long Weekend in Old Saybrook
My husband and I stayed with out two young children for a long weekend. We found the listing to be exactly as advertised and perfect for our stay! The communication with the owners was great. We enjoyed walking around the neighborhood, going to the Mystic Aquarium, and going to Hammonasset State Park to go to the beach and nature center.

Quick visit
House is in a lovely, well located neighborhood with long, private drive. It's nicely furnished, well equipped and has a large yoga studio. Owner will likely not forward entry details until 24-48 hours prior to arrival.
