This cottage was perfect for our trip! It had a great view of the bay and a nice breeze off the water. It was convenient to get to downtown New Haven, Wooster St, and surrounding parks! The house was clean and comfortable with window AC units in the living room plus each bedroom so you could set the temp how you liked it, and they were efficient at cooling! The kitchen had all the essentials, including a coffee pot. I would highly recommend Michelle’s place for your visit to New Haven!
