Relaxing & Convenient Place to Spend the Week
This was a very nice property for a couple or a small family. It was located near the best restaurants with convenience to all the CT shoreline has to offer. It was a great place to walk with the water being right across the street. It was a pleasant and relaxing place to spend a week!

Week at the beach!
We had a lovely time! The beach was about a 2 minute walk away which was fabulous! Sadly there were a lot of jelly fish so no swimming this time! Trish was very communicative and when we had an issue with WiFi she worked quickly to address it. Bed was a bit small (full) and in an alcove so only one way in and out. Very tiny bathroom but served it’s purpose. Our dog loved the cottage! She could see out the window and enjoyed the AC. They were very accommodating to pets which we so appreciated! Hope to be back again maybe in the fall!

Relaxation at its best
Loved my week at Ennis Cottage. The beach is only steps away so I spent the majority of my time there. The house itself is tiny but perfect for 1-2 people. Had everything I needed and the owner was responsive when I had a minor issue. Bedroom and bathroom are very tiny but again not much more that you need for a short stay. Would love to go back!

An Opportunity to Get-Away
The time of the year and the beach across the street which I had to myself made the stay at the cottage relaxing.
