This dwelling is awesome! The house was spotless. Brian was very attentive to any questions we had. The location is perfect. We wanted to visit with our granddaughter who resides close by. She had fun filling the deer feeder. The natural surroundings are beautiful with birds singing every morning. The water view was so relaxing. We were fortunate enough to see kayakers and paddle boarders enjoying the water. Because it looked so good, we’ll be returning with kayaks.The house was stocked very well. Anything we needed was supplied. The location was convenient to restaurants, grocery, shopping and parks. We were so comfortable, there was no need to venture out. I’m a huge reader so this was the perfect environment.Thank you Brian & Holly for sharing your lovely home.

In town for a family wedding at Saybrook Point Inn & Spa which made this location perfect. We lived in Fenwood, neighborhood across the cove, for 14 years so this was an enjoyable trip back home. Thoroughly enjoyed sitting on the deck, watching the osprey feeding its baby in the nearby nest, swans and their sygnets, and all of the other local birds. The cottage, fully stocked with any and every necessity, was very comfortable, and very nicely decorated, including the beautiful artwork. We will definitely stay here when & if we come back to Old Saybrook again. Great hosts and communication. All in all a great stay!
