The cottage was exactly as pictured and very clean and nicely decorated. It was a great place for our girls weekend. It was close enough to Mystic, Foxwoods, etc. if we wanted to do something and had a deck that got sun most of the morning into early afternoon and a front porch for the afternoon sun if we just didn't want to do anything but enjoy the beautiful weather and talk. The upstairs room with the bunk beds was great, that way we could stay in the same room and talk all night. Kitchen was well stocked, could use a few new cleaner coffee mugs but on the whole it was perfect

Very Cozy Cottage

5 of 5
Submitted: January 12, 2013 Stayed: September 2012
My husband and I and our two small dogs spent 4 weeks in this cottage and had a wonderful stay. The cottage is very cozy and I loved the seaside themed decor! Having the washer and dryer was also great as we were there for 4 weeks. As it is at a dead end street, it is very private and very quiet as was the neighbourhood. We stayed from Sept.15th to Oct.15th, the weather was beautiful and the fall colours were glorious in October. A beautiful backyard, we really loved the deck.
All in all a wonderful experience and we would not hesitate to stay there again!

Very Charming Cottage

Submitted: December 10, 2012 Stayed: December 2012
My husband was relocated to the New Haven area for work for a limited amount of time and we are staying in this lovely cottage for 3 months. It is such an adorable little home and had every amenity that you would need. The home was clean and definitely has been maintained. The town of Old Saybrook was absolutely charming and we have fallen in love with it! We were able to bring along our dogs and have had no problems with making this our temporary home. I'm sure that you will love, not only this little cottage, but the area as well!

We have loved our stay here! The place is clean, well kept, simply but creatively decorated giving it a homey feel, and the yard is really nice! I just regret not having been here in the warmer months to enjoy the flowers and the hammock and bbq. As to the sleeping arrangements all of the beds are quite comfortable and there were plenty of extra blankets and pillows. In the loft there was 3 twin beds and a double. Scattered throughout the home are games, books, puzzles, etc. and the lighting upstairs is perfect for sitting in a bed, gazing out the window on occasion with a good book(i actually read 2 of my own during our stay, lol). As our stay was mainly work related the internet was a must and it worked supurb! All the appliances worked great including the washer/dryer. As for the beach I went on a walk while I was there and yes, it is quite small but my whole family of 14 would have been easily accommodated and there was even a small boat ramp! It is in a nice community and we were never bothered by neighbors. Old Saybrook is a neat little town that is a good break from the rush of the city but has a stop and shop, gas stations, several privately owned restraunts, and an outlet mall a few minutes away. I would definitely recommend this place and would stay again if given the opportunity. :)

The property itself was lovely. It was as described and pictured but I would have to question the statement that the property was professionally cleaned. It wasn't filthy...but certainly hadn't been professionally cleaned. The furniture was dusty and there were cobwebs and dust balls throughout the property. The floor in the living room (carpeting) was pretty dirty. I wasn't all that excited to sit on the furniture. The sheets on the bed in the largest bedroom didn't really fit the bed...and I found that the fitted sheet came off during the night. I was also disconcerted when I rented this property that there were several people involved in the reservation process. When attempting to secure the reservation, I got several different quotes for rates, which set me ill at ease. The other thing that put a bump in my stay was the neighbor across the street who, without provocation, yelled something at us and shut her door. Other than that, neighbors were friendly, property was well located and the "beach" (such as it was) was extremely small...not able to be walked on. Can only stand still on it and enjoy the view.

Old Saybrook bungalow

This was a nice house situated at the end of a very private road within walking distance to the beach. It was a short drive to Main Street, Old Saybrook, and well-situated for visits to Mystic, Stonington and Essex. The home was comfortable with nice, open floor plans on both floors. An enclosed front porch, large rear deck and private side and back yards offered many options for quiet time with a good book. The upstairs bedroom with walk-in closet was spacious with a choice of sleeping arrangements. I would definitely consider staying here again, if we visited the area in the future.

Lovely, Special Place

5 of 5
Submitted: October 16, 2012 Stayed: October 2012
Sometimes in life places and people that are special come into your life at the right time, you know places & people that will always be in your heart. We are getting married today and its 8 a.m. in the morning and I found myself thinking about all the good things in life, and how lucky we both are to have found this great place, for it will always be our special place. We love how it is hidden away at the end of a street, very private, with a great yard and the cottage; well from the time we walked in we felt right at home, it was so clean and neat. Everything that we read about it on this site was as described but it's much more than that, it's just special and you can feel it. The owner form the day week booked it months back has been excellent to deal with, going out of the way to offer information on the area and even offering help if we needed with our wedding. The owner even emailed us just seeing if we needed anything and making sure everything was ok. If you are looking for that special place to take a break from life and really enjoy it, this is that special place, I can't thank the owner enough, and hope they knows how special this place is, I can tell the owner is as special as the lovely cottage. What else could make it so special!

I look forward to a Great Year....

Submitted: October 12, 2012 Stayed: October 2012
I will be correcting any issues that have been brought to my attention. I look forward to seeing you this year. This will be my 8th year of renting this property and every once in a while, someone has a complaint. I address everything when issues arise and are brought to my attention. If you rent from me and have an issue but do not call me to bring it to my attention and give me the opportunity to remedy the situation, leaving a bad review is really shameful. Communication works best. Winter rates are great. The house is warm, the fireplace works well. Great house for a small family. Come and visit Old Saybrook..... I look forward to your next stay.....Thanks again.....Yvette
