About this house rental
Contemporary and comfortable house set in a fantastic location with a great view of Long Island Sound and Stonington Village.
You can use it as a base to explore the Connecticut coast or just hang out on the sunny decks or the huge garden. Enjoy the sounds of birds and the sea.
The house is comprised of:
- Master Bedroom
A large room at the top of the house with a king sized bed and small closet. The upstairs bathroom is just across the landing.
Dark drapes keep out the morning sun so you can sleep as long as you like!
- Second bedroom
A quiet room with lots of closet space. This room is on the shady side of the house so it is lovely and cool. Double bed.
- Third (downstairs) bedroom
Double bed and two built-in singles make this an ideal kids' room. The second full bathroom leads off this bedroom.
- Kitchen, Dining and Living room
Amazing bright open plan spaces that open onto the sunny deck. The living room has a small library of interesting books about the local area and literature by local authors, and funky and comfortable furniture.
The kitchen is completely remodeled in 2025 and we're delighted by a new more spacious design and cool yellow color. We are a family that loves to cook and entertain--we've had so many good meals here and hope you do too. You'll find everything you need to make ambitious as well as everyday meals.
With the kitchen remodel we also installed a gorgeous tile floor in the kitchen and refinished the original pine floors in the house throughout. Upstairs got a new paint job too.
- The Decks
Lovely spaces for entertaining, dining al fresco at the rustic tables or just sunbathing. There is a chiminea and a gas barbecue. A solid, bespoke outdoor table is on each deck--we use one for summer breakfasts in the shade, and the other (can seat 10) has wonderful views of the harbor.
Please note that there is no air conditioning in the house. We've spent a lot of resources making the house as comfortable as possible with no a/c--with heat filters on the windows and fans in every room.
There is central heating (air), a woodstove, and underfloor heating in the kitchen/dining area, making it cozy in winter!

Plenty of room to visit and be together. Lovely views from the house and the deck. Amenities for activities were appreciated.

My friends and I (aged 22-24) agreed that this was one of the best places we’ve ever stayed at together. It was EXACTLY as described, if not better than the photos! Alison’s welcome email answered any questions we had before checking in and was very helpful!! The kitchen had almost everything you need to cook meals, but a couple of the cooking utensils are wearing out, so I recommend bringing a couple of your own if that bothers you. While originally booking, our only con was about not having AC, but not once did any of us ever feel too hot. We were actually chilly during the night! The weather was definitely on our side. Beautiful view of the water (especially during sunrise) and because of lack of light pollution, the view of the stars was amazing at night!! Thank you Alison and Jorge for this wonderful stay!!

Lovely location and excellent communication with owner. The house is beautiful, comfortable and well equipped but a little musty and needs some minor repairs.

The view and location are beautiful, and our hosts left us a bottle of wine and fresh flowers, which was very appreciated. The downside – all of the beds are ROCK HARD and old, the place has a TON of bugs, The linens are old and stained (and didn’t seem clean), we had no washcloths (they did bring us some new ones). After traveling all day, we had to make all of our beds (bc of Covid…???). There is no nightstand next to the bed downstairs. The downstairs shower handle was broken. They offered to send a plumber while we were staying there, but it was inconvenient so we opted for our rigged up system. One of the window handles was broken, and there is no AC so we were trying to manage the temperature with windows open. There is no permanent dehumidifier, it is a plug-in unit that we had to empty twice a day, but it worked. The downstairs was horrendously humid and musty when we arrived, it would’ve been nice if it would’ve been running before arrival. The deck was old and splintered, the umbrella had a big hole in it. The upstairs bed only had a couple of inches of clearance on either side and a slanted ceiling, so my 80-year-old parents had to crawl from the foot of the bed to the head of the bed to get in and out. There is another bed in the loft, but there are no curtains so the sun comes in at 6AM. There were appliances in the kitchen, but they were old and rusty. It’s beautiful, but at these prices we would not stay here again until these things are fixed.
