Lovely House for 10 people
Pretty nice house, not exactly beachfront, but a lovely house nonetheless. Good space for entertaining 10 adults. A lot of bugs so tiki torches would be a good addition. Would certainly return.

Perfect break by the water in Branford
An idyllic setting on the mouth of the Branford River, this beach home is meticulously kept and well stocked for visitors (just bring food!). A private beach adjacent to the home is the perfect launch point for water activities or just relaxing in a beach chair, and affords the best view in town of the annual fireworks display. Back on the deck is a hot tub with an amazing view of LI Sound, Branford River and surrounding wetlands. Carol the property manager is attentive and very responsive with lots of local knowledge. New visitors shouldn’t miss having a meal (or two) at the legendary Lenny’s Indian Head Inn just a short drive away. Also highly recommend a visit to the Thimble Islands via tour boat or water taxi from nearby Stoney Creek (Outer Island is a nature reserve and the perfect spot for a seaside picnic). The icing on the cake of a perfect week was access to the Owenego Inn, including its lifeguard attended beach and Friday evening festivities.

Girls weekend
Absolutely perfect! This was my first experience renting a VRBO property and I was not sure what to expect. The reviews were helpful so I wanted to return the favor. Carol's home is just that...a home. It doesn't feel like someone's rental property. It is beautifully furnished and very well stocked with everything you could possibly need (and then some) The beds, pillows and linens were very comfortable and good quality. Carol was very responsive answering my questions in advance of our booking and with one small question during the stay. Otherwise, everything was clear from the listing materials and as pictured and described on the site. The one thing that can be hard to convey is the beautiful views from every room. There are lovely view of the Long Island sound from one side of the home and entirely different harbor views on the other side. On the first floor you can look out at both side and feel surrounded by the water. We marveled at all of the interesting marine birds both out the windows and on walks around the lovely neighborhood. One of the nicest things that I can say about the comfort of the home is that the weather was not cooperative, yet we were so happy in our surroundings, we barely left and had the most wonderful time! We would definitely rent this property again.

Wonderful waterfront stay
Our family had a truly wonderful long weekend. The house was everything advertised and more. We were hoping for a few days of water views and the views were fabulous and manifold. Lots of classy comfort throughout the home as well. Carol was as good a communicator and supportive owner as one could ask for. Would stay there again!

Immaculate and lavishly furnished, but the location, with marsh and river views and the floor to ceiling windows letting the outdoors in, was the highlight for us. The hot tub was fun and refreshing too.

Beautiful Branford
This beautiful home overlooking the sound and harbor fostered a wonderful time spent with family. There is so much beauty in the views, the wildlife, the water, all the beautifully designed and kept landscapes and gardens throughout the surrounding area… And many great restaurants nearby, along with the oceanfront country club and private beach.

Buyer beware owner unreasonable with no compassion
The beach is not attached to the property it is down the street. View from deck is of a marsh...the pictures are deceiving. 4 days prior to check-in, 2 out of 4 couples had significant health issues they were just recently diagnosed with. Two had a recent cancer diagnosis so couldn't travel, 2 people tested + for covid and another had a death in the family. The months of Nov and Dec were totally available on owner's calendar yet owner refused to switch to another weekend. Owner lied to us and told us that VRBO told her she couldn't refund or change to another weekend. VRBO urged her to give us another weekend or refund but the owner refused. Half of our party wasn't able to go and the ones that did had to leave a day early. Owner was slow to respond to our emails about this as well. Kitchen was not gourmet and slightly outdated but functional. Visitors are asked to wash sheets and linens at end of stay as well as take trash out. Because of the owner's lack of compassion and the fact that our dear friends who needed this weekend the most were unable to attend there was a dark cloud over us during our stay.
