The property was lovely. It was easy to find, extremely convenient to Fairfield University (we were attending graduation) and was in a great location. Communication with Jeff was exemplary - he is extremely responsive and gracious. I would highly recommend Jeff and would definitely rent from him again if I were in the area.

This studio apartment was so sunny, open and clean. Lovely even in the cold November days when I was there visiting family in for Thanksgiving. The location was amazing, and everything was just perfect. I look forward to coming back.

Great property and location! We enjoyed hanging on the beach and walking into town. Unfortunately, the construction activity that was underway put a bit of a damper on the experience. That being said, we would rent this property again.

Wonderful stay

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.

A Stay-vacation

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!
