Location: Waterford, Connecticut, United States

Nestled just off Niantic River Road, this delightful home is steps from the scenic Niantic River, a predominantly tidal river in eastern Connecticut. The 5.2-mile river is crossed by the Niantic River Bridge, which carries Amtrak's Northeast Corridor and connects the towns of East Lyme/Niantic and Waterford. With fantastic fishing and kayaking opportunities, the river's mouth opens to the Long Island Sound, where you'll find tranquil waves and saltwater beaches within 1-2 miles.

Take a leisurely stroll or bike ride to explore nearby eateries, such as the renowned seafood restaurant, The Dock, Fat Tuna. Cross the bridge into Niantic to discover an array of charming antique, consignment and upscale retail shops. Don't miss the exquisite chocolate croissants at Sift, a French bakery, while enjoying views of the Long Island Sound.

Mohegan Sun and Foxwood casinos within 20-30 minutes. Mystic aquarium and Seaport nearby similar distance. Beluga whales to make your day.

Great Family Vacation
Spent two weeks celebrating Thanksgiving with family. Our son is a member of the Coast Guard Band. The house was great for preparing the holiday feast. The neighborhood is peaceful and the water is half a block away.

Gary's Review.
The property was everything as advertised. Easy to get to and convenient to Niantic and the surrounding area. We had a very enjoyable stay. The house could not have been better. This house is a gem with anyone with a family.

Great location
Nicely decorated house. Close to Mystic, Mohegan Sun and multiple beaches and state parks. My son loved the house as well. Very accommodating and had a lot of things that were helpful (beach chairs, bikes, blankets, shades/curtains, suggestions on where to eat). Overall a great place to stay!
