New London House | ELEGANT AND RELAXING BEACH GETAWAY, STEPS FROM THE WATER

4 Bedroom House in New London

Welcome to our charming, art-filled four-bedroom home in Lower New London, an eight minute walk to the beach. This 1930 Dutch Colonial is uniquely situated within walking distance of three bodies of water: we are 200 yards from Alewife Cove, which flows out to the sea and can be explored with a kayak; two and a half blocks from the Thames River, where you can stroll along the shore and to the lighthouse dated 1761 (the first built on Long Island Sound); and four blocks from the immensely popular Ocean Beach Park, with its marvelous white-sand beach, boardwalk, waterslide, Olympic-size swimming pool, amusement park rides, diner/gift shop, miniature golf, nightly concerts, and arcade. Or walk to the neighborhood grocery store, colorful local hangout, the Egg Yolk Café, or the historic Lighthouse Inn.
This vintage home is loaded with original molding and hardwood floors throughout. The first floor has a living room, dining room, kitchen, half bath, and sunroom/office for those who may still need to work while away. There is also a recently tuned piano and stereo. Upstairs is a full bath and four bedrooms (one queen, one full, and two twins). Although it does not have central air conditioning, it has AC units in three of the bedrooms and wonderful ocean breezes. The house sleeps six and is fully equipped with linens, towels, pots and pans, utensils, and dishes as well as a coffee maker, microwave, toaster, dishwasher, high chair, and gas range. There is a WiFi-enabled Smart TV, as well as numerous novels and children’s books, board games, beach towels/chairs/toys/umbrella, and a cooler. There is a washer/dryer and iron/ironing board in the basement. The back garden is set up with wicker furniture and a Weber barbecue. Note: We do not have a pool on the property; there is a public pool down at Ocean Beach Park.
A parking pass for Ocean Beach Park is included with the rental.
Note: After each guest's visit, our home is thoroughly restocked, cleaned, and sanitized by a professional cleaning service.
Welcome to the Dutch House!

Summary: For those who are tired of kitsch and cheap furnishings, 8 Greenway is an elegant respite from the City. A home that feels both new and shiny as well as lived-in and comfortable. this VRBO property is a stellar example of a vacation home that provides a truly sophisticated welcome mat. A backyard with Weber grill offers out-door relaxation; and bedrooms with AC (all but one) allows for cool rest. A pass to nearby Ocean Beach along with beach chairs and towels completes a full-rounded stay.

Summary: We had a great time here. It was our jumping off point to a variety of places relatively close by. The beach pass saved some $$, too. If you are looking for relaxing, avoid the beach on the weekend! The house was exactly as described. It has everything you'll need except groceries. Pay attention to the details. The day we arrived it was in the mid 90's. The house was hot - not a surprise, though. The description clearly indicates the A/C situation so no-one should be complaining about that. Definitely recommend!

Summary: My family and I rented this property for 2 weeks in July. I utilized the fabulous office space for those two weeks while my teenagers hung out at Ocean Beach Park, just a few blocks away. The house was perfect for our extended stay, and had everything we could/would need. Paper supplies, linens, towels, detergent, etc. The neighbors are super friendly, and the neighborhood is nice and quiet. Our check-in process was very easy, utilizing the door code for entry to the home. Although the downstairs is not air conditioned, the cross breeze always kept the downstairs cool. I would highly recommend staying here if you are looking for a getaway next to the beach!
