Lovely beach stay

Doesn’t get better than being right on the water. Circle Beach is such a special place and my family was so happy to be back this summer. The house is more of a rustic beach cottage but has so much love and history and detail and had everything we needed for our stay. Many delightful evenings spent on the porch. Rain closet shower was perfectly rustic beachy. Kayaks for use was amazing. The host was easy to communicate with and super responsive. We really hope to come back next summer.

Wonderful!!

We were so happy with our stay at "Yawl Come" cottage.! The cottage itself sits right on the beach with amazing views from every window! It was big, comfy and about as beachy as it gets!! The cottage supplied everything we needed...sheets, towels, books, games, outdoor sports equipment and wifi. We played board games around the huge farm table at night and relaxed on the back porch with our morning coffee. The kids spent hours hunting for crabs and swimming the entire weekend. We even celebrated my daughter's 16th birthday with family on the private beach creating a memories that will last a lifetime!

Fun rustic beach house

We rented this property for a family get-together (grew up in Southeastern CT, now South of Boston). I stayed with my husband, 1-year-old and other family, which included three adults, one teenager and two children (3 and 10 y/o). The bedroom situation worked out perfectly for us as we had a separate room for the baby and were still able to fit everyone comfortably. The house is very rustic but has the modern amenities you need. We spent a majority of our time outside on the beach or deck and were lucky enough to have mostly great weather. We loved the location and enjoyed morning or sunset walks around the neighborhood. Close to downtown Madison and Guilford, making for plenty of dining options relatively close by.

Ladies Weekend

Property was in a great location, but it is an older beach house in need of some upgrades. It is located right Long Island Sound with a great porch facing the ocean. Plenty of little towns to go browsing the shops.

Family Get-together

This property is just as it appears in the pictures with the exception of the bonfire. Fortunately we called the Fire Chief prior to building a marshmallow fire and were told they are NOT allowed. Aside from that, this home is stocked with everything a family or large group could ever need. Bring water shoes to fully enjoy the lovely water. Beautiful sunsets and inviting front covered porch makes morning coffee very enjoyable. If we have the opportunity, we will return. Elizabeth was easy to reach and very responsive with any questions. Great spot for the family to gather! Donna H

True beach cottage.

Grew up in this area when all the beach cottages were like this one. Not too many left anymore. Torn down or renovated to become year round homes. So it’s a little rustic but I like it that way because it brings me back to a simpler time. If that’s what you’re looking for, this is the place to be.

Family weekend with grandchildren

A great house and location for a family weekend for 6 adults and 3 kids. We had a wonderful time - perfect views, comfortable house, well stocked, kids had a great time building castles in the sand and riding bikes on sparsely trafficked road.

Beautiful spot for a vacation

Great house, rustic charm, extremely functional and well appointed. Furniture is super comfortable, kitchen had everything we needed, wi-fi was fine. So much to do right outside your door - if you love the ocean, you will love this house.

Truly provides a private beach experience.

We had an amazing stay at Elizabeth’s home. The privacy on the beach makes this house the perfect location for a family vacation. Close to downtown Madison, shops and restaurants. Plenty of bedrooms and everything you need is available. Just pack your swimsuit and go!

AMAZING

My sister and I rented the house for the week of Labor Day for family birthday parties over 15 people and the house accommodated everybody comfortably! Game night was awesome table in dinning room was perfect fit for everybody. Young and old enjoyed the activities such as boating,fishing,tubing and just relaxing by the fire at night. Be sure to bring your camera AMAZING sunsets every night!! We will be booking again for next year!! Oh and the owner is such a sweet lady enjoyed speaking with her but didn't have the pleasure of meeting her in person.

Perfect beach escape!

The house was exactly as described. A perfect beach vacation! We vacationed with a 1 and 2 year old there was plenty of sand and warm water for hours of play. The water was rocky so be sure to have water shoes. We had lots of fun in the Kayaks. It was very private and was a wonderful escape!! We will be back!
