We had a fantastic stay at this beautiful home in Old Lyme! I was initially a bit hesitant to book because there were no reviews yet, but it’s clear why — this is brand new construction and we think we were the first guests.The house is beautifully decorated with top-quality furniture throughout. The kitchen is excellent, featuring a commercial-grade oven and all the best amenities. We loved the private yard and the short walk to the beach. Everything was spotless, comfortable, and exactly as described.Highly recommend — we’d definitely stay again! Thank you to the hosts.

A Must Stay!

Donnie was great from the start! He messaged us to make sure everything was perfect when we arrived. The property is exactly what a New England beach house should be, cozy, relaxing and a block from the beach. Could not have stayed in a better location. Thank you Donnie! 10/10

This place was amazing! Like moving into a brand new home, impeccably decorated, with every convenience from TVs in every room, to ultra comfortable beds, from a fully equipped kitchen (think Wolf stove) to mini-split air conditioners throughout, with family gathering spaces in the kitchen (a massive center island circled by nine cushioned benches), in the living room, in an air conditioned front porch, and on a private patio with two gathering spaces - one around a mesmerizing gas fire ‘pit’ and the other a large dinner table. We chose this place because of its strict no-pet policy so our daughter-in-law with severe pet allergies could join us, and it was as advertised, free of animal allergies. Just a couple of blocks from two beautiful beaches (passes included). Beach communities can be noisy and raucous. This was not. With just one restaurant/bar at the beach, one nice, reasonably priced apparel shop, an Italian ice place, one video arcade with a staff who seemed to love patiently catering to kids as they deliberated how to spend their reward tickets, and one ice cream shop with a full size indoor carousel next door, the neighborhood was peaceful and our granddaughters were able to safely ride their bikes.

Great Time

The cottage was great. The outdoor patio is definitely the highlight. The only complaint we had is if you are trying to multiple air conditioning units and anything the else power would go out. We were popping the breakers every 10-15 mins at night. Overall it was a great stay and we would go back.

Charming cottage with great location

We were a family of 4 in town for a high school graduation, but wanting to spend the week at the CT shore. The house was very charming and clean when we arrived. It was an older house, but had a new oven and fridge and all the dishes you would need in the kitchen. We cooked a few meals and had everything we needed. The front porch was great to sit for meals and games. There were a few beach chairs and a wagon to borrow. The beach was just a short walk down the road and there was a great crepe place, ice cream, Italian ice, snack bar and even a carousel on the way there. It was 4th of July week for us, but the beach was not too crowded. The only minus for us was that the listing had said there was a washer and dryer, but there was not one in this unit. Overall, we had a wonderful stay.
