Great location! Jeff was a great host who answered any questions and was always pleasant. The apartment was very clean and super cute. It made the perfect spot for us to stay while we attended the Soundside Music Festival. The charming downtown was two minutes away and we were within walking distance to the beach. Lovely spot.

Just as described! Spacious 1 bedroom with large kitchen. Location is great! I was there for business and the weather was snowy, so no trip to the beach. But it's right across the street

Very quiet and peaceful place. I enjoyed it. I was not aware of stairs, and being handicap it was a challenge.

our stay was for personal reasons as we are born and raised in CT and have family here. We had beautiful weather, we were two minutes from the beach, and centrally located to 95 and the Merritt parkway. Everything was very close, especially the little village of Southport with Sammy's pizza and the little bakery Sono. Overall the stay was great and the cottage was wonderful. it me all our needs. Thanks to Jeff for being such a great host.

a lovely, well-maintained apartment that's a short walk to the beach. With lots of showy mansions in the area, this house is a pleasant contrast. Wish we'd booked a longer stay!
(Our only complaint is very first world: the coffee-maker requires specific pods we couldn't find. We had to :::sob::: buy our coffee elsewhere.)

A really lovely “shabby chic”cottage styled for easy summer living.
I stayed two nights to gain easy access to the beach without going far from my home nearby.
Fun idea!
The bed was comfortable, the bathroom is very nice, The living area is pretty with a great table and four chairs. Tv is well set up.
The Kitchen is ok, no ice machine, so be prepared.
My only critique would be to have that one cupboard filled with a nicer assortment of dishes and especially glassware instead of looking like it was collected from someone’s leftovers.
The host, Jeff, is 100% attentive when needed!
