Tranquilo y privado situado en la playa Cottage Escape!

everything we needed for our fishing excursion. comfortable and clean, great kitchen and really appreciated the gas grill.

Its a very cute cottage. Road noise was not a problem unlike a previous review. We had a really hot weather and sleeping was difficult, no a/c in bedrooms. They each had a small fan.

Its location on Post Road with the sound of cars whizzing by was not at all beachy. No warning was given of steep narrow driveways unmarked with house hidden and I was not provided the location until the day before travel. The laundry is in the basement down a steep open stairway with only a railing on one side. I managed to make it down 3 steps clutching the rail with both hands. Half the basement was covered with thick plastic and there was lots of debris, maybe dirt or crumbling cement. I opted to leave the cellar door closed and locked and to forget the laundry. The owner was polite and helpful although he categorically denied my request to refund our money. The house looked like the photos. It was not a good house for dogs as there was no fenced in areas and right in a high traffic zone. The bathroom is tiny. Mattresses were good. I could go on but enough said.

My daughters (14 and 18 mths) came to visit my son that is stationed in CT with the navy. He came to stay the weekend with us. This house was a short 18 min drive to base. It was close to the beach and many other things. Only took us only 16 mins to get to mystic. The kitchen was great for me to be able to make my boy some home cooked food. We throughly enjoyed our family time here together.

We cannot always know what the expectation might/should be for rentals and everyone has a different take on what they find acceptable. Renting away from home places has been a 20-year practice. Therefore, thoughtful and detailed reviews are always appreciated when shopping. The goal is always to provide a decent overview since rentals represent a large part of a travel budget. That said here are what were seen as the pros and cons of this rental each with a 1 to 10 rating for a final average (88 ÷ 12 = 7.333). Pros Dog friendly even for the bigger 4 paw crowd – of course the expectation is tempered because of this wonderful allowance, thank you Tony and Laura - 10 Host responsiveness - 10 Privacy - 10 Location for beach and shopping - 10 Bed in master, very comfortable and this was a bonus and surprise - 10 Outdoor shower with warm water for dog clean-up when needed - 10 Water pressure decent but for only 1 thing at a time, doable - 9 Cons Musty in general. The upstairs loft was not usable for this guest due to air quality which is where the work from home space was to be used. Instead, work was done from kitchen table. Using closets to store clothes did not seem like a good idea - 4 Maybe not fully set up for month long stays in late fall? Nature makes a mark - 2 Kitchen could use good clean and reset/update - 4 Decorations did not leave much space for guestitems without rearranging some things - 5 Rug and couch (although comfortable)could use replacement - 4
