Comfortable cottage with a beautiful view

The cottage was very clean, had nice linens and the kitchen had plenty of dishes and accessories. The furniture was clean and comfortable and there was plenty of living space for 6 adults. We were fortunate to have lovely fall weather that weekend, and we spent a good deal of of free time on the porch enjoying the view of the sound.

meet me by the sea

We had a charter boat out of Groton to fish Sunday afternoon and caught a bunch of bluefish and striped bass. The cottage is beyond charming. Fully stocked and wonderful views of Long Island Sound. We will be back !

Wonderful home in fabulous setting!

We had a wonderful week in this beautiful home in a gorgeous setting! Everything was perfect -Cynthia thought of everything from stocking essentials to providing welcoming flowers and a banana bread! She was so responsive to my questions before and during our stay. Sitting on the front porch was our favorite activity with the fabulous views and sound of the waves. We did not want to leave and would love to return - highly recommend!

Charming getaway on the shore

This charming cottage is perfectly stocked for an easy getaway! Cynthia is a delightful host and we felt at home with a well organized kitchen, beautiful linens and a shed full of beach gear and toys. The pictures are spot on for what you will find when you arrive.

Quiet Peaceful Beach House

If you are looking for a quiet get away - someplace away from the crowds of the Northeast beaches, Meet Me By the Sea is a great place for a family retreat. We were only there for a weekend, but this large, immaculate cottage was the perfect getaway. The property is exactly as pictured and is only a short walk to the beach and the home has a terrific view of the water from the front porch and from the upstairs screened in deck. We hit the farmers market on Saturday morning and picked up some local goodies, barbequed and took a nature stroll in a State Park nearby. The host, Cynthia, went out of her way to leave fresh flowers and biscotti for us when we checked in. When we got about a half hour from home, my daughter realized she left some clothes in a drawer and reached out to Cynthia who replied right away and said they had the clothes and would send them to us. Five Stars!
