"Our group of four friends in our 50s loved our stay here. Heather was a responsive, welcoming, flexible host who left us a card, bottle of wine and a prepped wood pile in the fire pit. The decor was tasteful and beautiful, clean and modern. The mattresses were firm, which we liked. We made use of the comfortable couch on the deck as well as the gas fireplace in the living room. The location is lovely and we had a short, 5-minute walk to the beach. Birders would enjoy the tremendous diversity of...

"This VRBO was very Comfortable. Old Rustic House thats Been Upgraded with Modern Accomodations. We felt Very Relaxed here. We cooked Dinner /Breakfast . and enjoyed some Livation. Sitting area outside was perfect. . and we slept well.. . The only thing we were surprised about was the On Street Parking for unloading. And the Stairs at the Entrance.. Not Handicap Accesibble. But, in the end.. We were very happy. And will stay again. No Problem"

"We had a family stay-cation and the kids loved all the amenities the house had to offer. The adults loved that it was centrally located to all the shops and eateries. I’d stay there again."

"This was a well equipped gem overlooking the lake. My family of four adults rented this for two nights in order to attend a wedding. The whole place was elegantly decorated and very comfortable. The kitchen had everything you could want - coffee bar, expresso machine, sparkling wine in the fridge,, and even a station for creating S'mores - yum! The views of the lake were outstanding. We've rented many VRBO's and this was probably the best yet. We will definitely be coming back. Beautiful place."

"House was very nice. Location is great. Easy walk to beach and convenient to Westbrook center."

"By far the most unique architecture that we have ever stayed in. Every room is an adventure from its shape to the stunning artifacts from around the world. A gorgeous setting that was perfect for relaxing. Everything is first class-five star. So memorable that we are coming back next year."

"Beautiful house and in a great location. We had 12 adults for a long weekend and the house worked well for our group. The kitchen is a bit tight but fully functional. Having a second full size refrigerator was a plus! The living rooms and dining room area were comfortable and plenty of room to spread out. We enjoyed time on the large screened in porch and playing pool in the den. Overall it was nice stay and great for a large group."

"Nice quiet neighborhood. Plenty of bedrooms, really great comfy beds, & 3 bathrooms! WONDERFUL!!! Large dining room table where you all can gather for meals. The very best guide book of how the house works, places to eat & general information that was so nice to know, not being from around there. Welcome snacks, a very nice touch! Would HIGHLY recommend to anyone looking to visit UConn, the navel academy or the Mystic Seaport area."

"Very nice house. Was unable to enjoy surroundings as we were in town for a dance competition that consumed all our time. Property was as presented. Would use again."

"This was such a cute place. We visited in spring where everything is just start to bloom the yard was fenced in so great for dogs, with a cute play place for kids. The neighborhood is so quiet and peaceful. We walked several of the streets and meet a few friendly neighbors. The host was fantastic checking in to make sure we had everything we needed. The house was clean, Air with lots of windows and light. We spent time playing board games and reconnect. Definitely would come the area again and...
