Beautiful home
Home was beautiful, everything you would need for a great getaway. Went with my college roommate, spouses and our adult children. Plenty of room for everyone. Beds really comfortable, large kitchen table to gather and play games and bonus pool table.

what a jewel - understated
The house was absolutely perfect for our family reunion. The pictures don’t even begin to describe how well decorated and spacious the home is. There’s plenty of common areas to relax and the Kitchen/dinning room was perfect. The neighborhood for walking is great and very close to the water. The host was very accommodating and the process worked like clockwork. If you travel to this area I highly recommend renting this house. We will be looking for excuses to come back.

Perfect family gathering
This beautiful, well-appointed house turned out to be the perfect venue for hosting our family to celebrate mom's life. The weather was rainy all weekend so we couldn't enjoy the proximity to the Thames and Long Island Sound, but indoors was warm and cozy for catching up with family and friends. AnnGina graciously allowed us early check-in, which facilitated our attendance at the burial ceremony. All around 5-star stay.

A wonderful week
We rent a house for a family gathering each year. When I asked my wife and children to compare this year’s rental, they all agreed that this year was at the top of the list. The house itself was so comfortable, and the location was ideal. We took advantage of the proximity of the beach, the opportunity to rent kayaks, and the varied activities of the Mystic Seaport and aquarium. The rental house was in excellent condition, and the owner supplied everything that we needed to make our trip successful. She responded quickly to any questions that we had. One thing that renters should know is that there are strict rules about outdoor gatherings in the evenings. This was not a major problem for us, but if you want to sit around the campfire, be forewarned that you are expected to be inside the house no later than 9:00 PM. All in all, this was a great house in a great location.

Old House expertly updated! So nice!
Really great house. Its a very old house (maybe a boarding house from the 19th century?) but its meticulously updated. Be prepared for the idiosyncrasies of an old house - low ceiling on 3rd floor, bedroom floor levels are different than hallway floor level, water takes a minute to get hot. I live in an 1890 house so I'm used to these sorts of things. The porch is really excellent. We had 10 people in this house and we had room to spare. We usually stay in a country house near nothing but we all agreed staying in a neighborhood in New London was great. The parking passes to beach were a definite plus.

New London Gem!
We were three families of 4, looking for a beautiful house big enough for all of us. We found this amazing house! It was just like advertised, and so comfortable. Great bedrooms, nice kitchen and large dining room table. And so beautiful! Free access to a nice beach. And the owners were available for any questions/issues. We had a wonderful time! Merci!

A perfect and Convenient Company Getaway
I hosted a two day company offsite for my leadership team last week and this home was perfect. Large, well equipped, clean, and convenient, with all the bells and whistles one might wish for. I highly recommend this place and host, and would stay here again.

Excellent long weekend!
This is a fabulous rental house. We were in the area for a family wedding and housed 15 family members, who all had very comfortable sleeping quarters and access to plenty of bathrooms The large dining room fit everyone for dinner, there's a well equipped kitchen, and a wonderful wrap-around porch for morning coffee and chatting with family. We couldn't have been more pleased with this rental!

Three Generational Gathering
This Victorian-style home, close to the water and the park is located in a quite neighborhood. Since we were in town to bring our parents to their final resting place, this large house provided enough room to house three generations. The main floor had many gathering areas, both inside and out. Every level had thermostats, even the master bedroom had its own separate thermostat. Any problems we had were solved quickly and easily.

Perfect house for a Girls Weekend
We stayed in this house for a Moms Weekend away. There were 11 of us, and we all fit in the house comfortably. The house was beautifully decorated and very clean. We were so impressed when we walked in with the decor. It is so tastefully done. The house has everything you need... bed sheets, ample towels, K-cup coffee maker, dishes, utensils... and more! The rooms were good sized and the beds and pillows were very comfortable. There is ample seating in the kitchen and family room for many people to gather and spend time together. The hosts were easy to communicate with and were very responsive to questions we had upon check-in. If you are thinking of booking this house, you won't regret it. I would definitely book this house again for a group looking to enjoy the mystic area in a quiet neighborhood away from the hustle and bustle.
