Property was very clean inside and outside. Clinton is the perfect location for Boston or New York. Greg our host kept us updated about the property. He was also very easy to contact by phone, when the access code to get into the property had not activated, Greg activated our entry to the property for us on his app.We really enjoyed our stay in Clinton and would not hesitate to stay there again.

We had a wonderful stay at Greg's place! The location is perfect—close to the beach and very convenient for a relaxing family getaway. The house is very spacious, and the heated pool was a huge highlight for everyone. The separate cottage is such a nice addition, especially with its own full bathroom and kitchen, giving extra comfort and flexibility for a family stay. The host was very responsive, kind, and accommodating throughout our visit. Overall, this is a great option for families, and we would definitely recommend it!

Great property with room for the whole family. We were in town for a college graduation but definitely plan on returning in the summer when the pool will be available and we have more time to check out the great area. The accommodations were exactly as seen on the page. Perfect place to entertain big families. Thank you Greg for making this available.
