Fabulous Rental
This studio style rental was immaculate and stocked will all kinds of goodies. Our hosts were quite gracious making us feel welcome on their property. Branford is a gem in itself with beautiful coastline, great food, hiking nearby and the Thimble Island cruise opportunity. We will definitely go back!

Relaxing long weekend!
Was looking for a coastal retreat to enjoy a couple days with my daughter who lives near this location. This property had everything from a super clean, cozy studio with fridge and counters filled with surprising treats, incredible hot tub with lights in the trees, pool to cool off and little private beach to launch a paddlleboard and kayak, or hang out at night with a burn pit. If you are just a beach person and want toes in the sand and to swim in the ocean, this area is not for you. Otherwise...it is perfect for 2 people.

Delightful in every way!
Our stay here was well worth the 8 hour drive. We couldn't have asked for better hosts. They provided all sorts of goodies upon our arrival. We immediately felt welcomed and our stay was very comfortable. The views and sunsets were some of our favorites! Thank you again for making our stay fun and truly enjoyable! We do want to come back!
