Summary: We absolutely loved our stay in this beautiful, historic home! From the moment we booked, Vince was communicative and so easy to work with. Checking in was a breeze and the home is very well appointed. While the home has maintained so much original charm, it is also outfitted with all the modern conveniences you’d expect, including an extremely effective heating system. We had plenty of room for our family to spread out and everyone enjoyed comfortable sleeping spaces. The area is absolutely gorgeous and we had a blast exploring. Don’t miss Galette Castle or the Goodspeed Opera House. We were lucky enough to catch a show there! There are absolutely adorable shops nearby and fantastic restaurants. Our favorites were the River Tavern and the newly renovated Brushmill in nearby Chester. You will not be disappointed with this truly remarkable home.

Summary: This updated 1852 house along the Connecticut river was an ideal place to spend some time with our college student daughter. It’s away from the rat race, but it’s not isolated. It’s on an occasionally busy road that parallels the Connecticut river. The house has a great view of sunsets across the river. The house is roomy and the kitchen is a real plus, with a nice propane range. There’s a great local grocer across the river in Haddam, and bigger chain groceries nearby. There are three different sitting rooms, which means plenty of space to spread out. The house is a mix of new and old. Expect things like door handles, floor boards, windows, and stairs to be period. HVAC is an add-on., with window unit air conditioning in the summer. But there’s plenty of hot water, laundry, and good Internet/WiFi/cable. It’s a great place for us to stay. That the current owner, who’s an awesome, highly responsive host, bought the place after staying in it, tells you all you need to know.

Summary: We really enjoyed our stay at this property. It is in a great location and was so cozy. We got lucky with some mild weather in March and took advantage of the balcony with beautiful views of the river. And the gas fireplace was great for warming us up in the mornings. Lots of cute little areas to sit and also to work. The main living area has big comfortable chairs and a nice corner dining table. Communication with owner was superb and check-in and out process very simple. Would definitely recommend staying here!!

Summary: Very nice, beautiful wide hardwood floors. Some comfortable furniture and a bit of view of the CT River (what looks like a large deck is a roof, by the way). Not for people with difficulty with stairs--the house is a typical antique with narrow steep stairs. Fine for us but not for all. Lovely host interaction and the house has most of what you will want or need. beautiful area and lots of great state parks for hiking nearby.
