A wonderful stay!
This place was even better than the pictures! The location was perfect to walk to the restaurants and beach in Stonington. The house was clean, more spacious than we thought it would be, and the backyard/porch was a perfect place to hang outside!

Quiet Alternative to Coastal Towns
An elderly relative suggested that we meet in Mystic, but we suggested that Stonington would be a quieter place for a CT coastal stay. This was a great find. The rental was roomy, convenient, and well supplied. We brought two cars and didn't have any trouble finding nearby street parking in April. Our host was prompt answering pre-booking inquiries as well as the check-in procedures. If we go back to the CT coast, we will definitely check to see if this property is available.

Girls Weekend
I stayed at this lovely property for a girls’ weekend with myself, my 2 years old daughter, and two of my friends. The house was so spacious and charming! I loved the old windows! It was local to so many wonderful places (ice cream, winery, restaurants, a fun farmers market, Westerly, RI, and more!) the host was very accommodating when we asked if we could check in early. 10/10 would go back again!

Wonderful spot in the Borough!
We had a great stay at this property which is very conveniently located near the center of town. The property manager was incredibly responsive. Our kids could walk to camp at NESS. It is larger than it looks online and very comfortably fit our family of 5. We look forward to returning!

Really sweet property in the most adorable setting. Perfect for a short stay for our family of four. Love being able to walk everywhere, super quiet area, and close to beaches. We had zero issues for which we had to reach out to Bennett, however we ended up arriving super early and he was very quick to respond when I asked about checking in early. Thank you!!

Charming Carriage Home in Beautiful Neighborhood
This beautiful, comfortable carriage house exceeded our expectations for a stay in Connecticut for a weekend wedding. My family (mom, dad and two college students) likes space to spread out and this gave us that and more. We all enjoyed the home and exploring the town of Stonington. It was so walkable. Bennett was a perfect host and very understanding of our needs. Would definitely stay again.

Lovely, quiet spot in the borough
We enjoyed our stay here very much. The property is roomy and well-appointed, a quiet neighborhood spot. It's easy to see why Bennett is a premium host--he answered all of our questions very promptly, and took extra effort to accommodate any requests we had. When I mentioned that we were looking for an iron/ironing board (which I THINK was mentioned in the listing), he came by with both later that afternoon. We enjoyed meeting him, and would recommend this spot for your travels in and around Stonington!
