We were happy to be able to bring our pups on our family beach vacation. It was a wonderful neighborhood to walk and look at the ocean. The house was welcoming and large enough for each of us to sleep comfortably.

The house is a quaint older cottage with plenty of room for five of us. The house contained everything we needed and was tastefully decorated and very comfortable. Location to beaches and other ocean activities was most convenient. Communications with the owner were both pleasant and accommodating.

We absolutely loved our stay at Brian’s beautiful home—truly one of the best vacations we’ve ever had! The massive porch with ocean views was our favorite hangout spot, perfect for watching boats go by and soaking in the sea breeze. With tons of windows, the whole house felt light, airy, and peaceful.We also really appreciated how tastefully decorated the home was, with so many thoughtful touches that reflect the rich history of New London. The location couldn’t be better—an easy walk to a private beach and walking distance to Ocean Beach where we enjoyed the cruise night, mini golf, and even the water slides.Brian’s home is comfortable, inviting, and full of charm. We’d stay again in a heartbeat!
