Wickford Waterfront 12 min to Newport & 15 min URI
Elaine has a lovely apartment. Very pristine and quiet with amazing views. Our stay was extremely comfortable. Her instructions were perfect and we had no problem with whatsoever anything. If you’re ever there do not miss the morning sunrise. Outstanding. Thank you Elaine & Rich for a lovely stay. We hope to come back some day.

Mystical Ocean View in Historic Stonington Borough
Sam's place exceeded our expectations! The view was marvelous, and the house was beautifully decorated with a wonderful collection of books we truly enjoyed. The kitchen was fully equipped with everything we needed, and the room was super clean. We had a great time during our two-day stay. The small town offered so much to explore, and the nearby seafood market was a delightful surprise. we had fresh lobster at a very reasonable price. We highly recommend Sam's place for a relaxing and enjoyable getaway!

Cozy Private Lake Q Retreat
Great little spot. This rental has everything you need. Forget something-they got it. Very clean and modern with thoughtful touches. Had an extended stay here and extended for longer. 1 bedroom with loft that owner made into another bedroom for me. Loved it. Great deck, stunning lake view from all the windows. Owner very responsive to any needs. 100 percent recommend. Neighborhood lovely and quiet. Amazing respite.

Mystic River Getaway - Walk To Downtown & Seaport!
We just came home from our long weekend in Mystic and Anthony’s place was a great find. We comfortably fit myself, my husband, and my 2 year old with ample space. The house was walking to distance to many amenities including downtown Mystic which we enjoyed. I would highly recommend Anthony’s place to anyone else traveling to Mystic!

The Millhouse Downtown Chester
This is our second time staying at this property. Four of us were visiting people in the area and The Millhouse is a great location to explore the area, with nice places to eat only steps away on Chester Center Main Street. The stream-side location makes it a very unique experience and the interior of the property is very nicely decorated and maintained.

On Jordan's Cove!
One of the best hosts we've stayed with. Very friendly and accommodating. My fiance and I loved this waterfront locations. it's so peaceful and serene. it's located at the end of a dead end road so it's super quiet too. Would very much like to return again

The Pond Mill Retreat w/ 2 Bdrms & Pool
Dawn and Bob’s place is one of the top Airbnb’s we have stayed in! Top notch in every way. It was spotless, comfortable and had everything we needed. And on top of that Dawn and Bob were the most friendly hosts we have met! I would recommend this Airbnb without reservation and will be back whenever we are back in CT!

Lakeside apartment 2.5 miles from Wesleyan campus!
I spent the weekend at this beautiful lakeside apartment. The apartment is attached to the main home, but it is very private. There is a sloped driveway, that leads to the house. There is plenty of parking at the top near the street, and an individual space for guests, down pretty close to the door where to check-in, so I didn't have far to bring my luggage to my vehicle. My stay was so peaceful and allowed me some rest and relaxation. People were boating, fishing, and swimming in the lake. I enjoyed getting some sunshine on the upper balcony. Mark and Tina are the perfect hosts! They are the nicest couple you will ever meet. They made me feel right at home, including my dogs. Communication was excellent as any requests via text were immediately answered, and they were very flexible. I wish my stay was longer. I am hoping my schedule will allow me to return and stay again in the future. Thank you, Mark and Tina, for a wonderful weekend. I hope to see you again!

Coastal New England Waterfront Home-The Reed House
Perfect location and accommodations for extended family to stay for a college graduation weekend! Clean, spacious and well appointed. Nice views and enjoyed using the kayaks on the bay. Garon’s responsiveness and communication were excellent.

Amazing 2BR Riverfront Gem
We loved our stay. The host was very responsive, friendly and accommodating. The place was spotlessly clean and well equipped for whatever we could think of needing and then some.

Salty Breeze - Waterfront Cottage on the Cove
This was a very beautiful house on the lake. I also appreciate it a lot of toiletries and a large supply of clean towels, linens, pillows, etc. That is a very nice touch. Overall, the only regret is that I wish we stayed there for a longer duration.

Kayaks ~ Bikes ~ Boards ~ 6mins> Greenport ~ 55"TV
We had a wonderful weekend stay at Eileen's beautiful waterfront home. The view from the living room and primary bedroom of the water was so peaceful. The kitchen was well appointed and the cozy living room made for a wonderful family gathering spot when we weren't dining out at the fabulous nearby restaurants, visiting wineries, or viewing local scenery. Eileen was incredibly responsive to small questions we had. We would definitely book again!!

True Ocean Front Vacationing - Groton/Mystic
The house was very clean, with a beautiful, large, well stocked kitchen. The view was lovely and it was wonderful hanging out on the deck. The beds were very comfortable. The house would be a little more practical if one of the bedrooms had two beds, so more people could sleep in the actual bedrooms. The pull out beds were not as comfortable and the bed in the loft is only accessible with a ladder. However, for a small group or people who aren’t picky about their sleeping arrangements it is a fantastic place to stay. You can’t beat the view and proximity to the water!

Stunning Waterfront Cottage with Big Yard & Dock!
It was a very relaxing home surrounded by beautiful waterfront wildlife( a pair of swans and other birds ) and views. It was well worth the stay and I would like to stay there again and I would recommend it to family and friends in the future.

Beautiful condo on Long Islands Northfolk
We very much enjoyed our stay at the Cliffside for our wedding weekend! Alice was very flexible with us, which we appreciated because getting married is chaotic enough LOL. Would highly recommend staying here. The unit was spotless and had a wonderful view. We could not have asked for a better stay!

We loved Montauk - low key, wild and upmarket at the same time. This apartment was perfect, super quiet yet near everything and loved seeing wild deer from the terrace

We really enjoyed staying at Lynn’s place! Very clean and had a great view of the ocean from the deck. Lynn was very responsive and made the experience seamless. We would definitely stay with Lynn again.

We had a great time at Julie’s place. Would love to visit again…perhaps in the Fall. Loved the balcony overlooking the Sound. Julie was very responsive to my questions. She got back to me immediately. I would highly recommend Julie’s home!

Beachside Waterview 2Br Condo w/ Pool in Greenport
We had a great stay! Instructions were clear and the home had everything we needed.

King Bed - hot tub - saunas - 1 mile Mohegan Sun
We considered staying at Mohegan Sun for our weekend event there, but we are so glad we chose to stay here instead. It was a peaceful little escape! Taylor thought of everything and we never ran into any issues. Thanks for a great stay!
