AMAZING PLACE with AN AMAZING HOST!

We booked this home to attend our sons graduation from Yale. It was a short drive from the school, but well worth it. The home was peaceful, and offered a wonderful place to relax after a day of activities. Phil was the absolute most hospitable host we've encountered. The home was clean and above and beyond what we expected. Every detail was accounted for, from the fresh flowers to welcome us to washer/dryer avaialbilty. We can not say enough good things about our experience. We enjoyed it so much, that we have decided to come back and visit the cute little town and beach nearby! We are so grateful to Phil for being truly kind, and generous and making us feel so comfortable. THANK YOU!

A gem in Guilford

Went to this area from north Florida to visit our daughter who lives in New Haven with her husband and 2 little girls. This is a beautiful and spacious New England home, impeccably kept in a quiet neighborhood by the Guilford Marina. It is 2 stories high with 4 bedrooms, great comfy beds and great, well supplied kitchen. You can see the water and marina from some of the rooms. The back yard is fenced in and we were able to have an Easter egg hunt with our 2 little granddaughters that was a lot of fun, walk around the neighborhood to the water, and eat at a delicious local eatery, Pa’s Place just across the street. Phil the owner lives next door and was simply a pleasure to work with, readily accessible and kind. We travel a bit and I give this property the best scores, definitely would rent here again in the future.

Perfect for a family trip

Spacious, spotlessly clean and comfortable. Phil was there to greet us when we arrived and showed us around the property. Location is close enough to walk to the green or to Jacobs Beach but also private and quiet. We couldn’t have asked for a nicer place to stay - thank you!

The Perfect Guilford House

I can’t say enough how much we enjoyed Phil’s place. Our family of five had plenty of room for our short stay in Connecticut. The location was perfect for local restaurants on the water and a short walk to town. The backyard served as our evening play zone then trips to the beach to end the day. Phil was an impeccable host throughout the entire booking process, check in and stay. We even added on an additional night because we didn’t want to leave. We will definitely be back. Thanks
