We had a wonderful week at this kid friendly home. Very spacious and a quick walk to the beach. The back yard was a marshmallow roasting, fire fly catching heaven!
Excellent stay for our extended family of 9. Having the bunk bed in the queen room downstairs perfect for our family of 4 with two elementary school aged kids!
We rented this lovely home to serve as our base while attending our sonâs Yale graduation weekend. It was the perfect spot for our family of five, aged 17-86, to get ready for multiple events and unwind afterwards. About a 10-15 minute drive from campus, with grocery stores and restaurants near by. While we didnât have much down time to enjoy the beautiful location, we would love to return and do so. The beach and park nearby looked lovely and we could tell there was a lot to do. The home itself was immaculate and had everything we needed. Highly recommend if you need a base for visiting Yale or if you just want a peaceful, beautiful place to relax and be with family and friends.
The house was beautiful and a perfect place for our family to be at while visiting our daughter who is a student at Yale. We saw the sunrise over the ocean from our bedroom window. Wish we found this sooner!
This house is beautiful and has everything you need, including a gorgeous view of the Sound. All communication was swift and easy. My family built some wonderful memories here this week!
The home is spacious, up to date, clean and child friendly (equipped with both indoor and outdoor toys).
The beach is a very short walk and never busy. Some spots are pretty rocky but there are areas that arenât and the kids did fine with water shoes until they were settled.
Household item wise, we had everything we needed and then some.
The owner communicated well and was a pleasure to book with, weâll definitely keep this property on our list for potential trips each summer!
This is our second time staying at Mike and Stacy's beach house in West Haven and it was just as wonderful as the first time. The property is lovely with a delightful backyard for a BBQ / fire pit, but the true delight is being just a stone's throw from the beach. All necessary accommodations were provided to ensure this was another delightful visit.
We were in town to celebrate my son's college graduation, and stayed at this beautiful home about 30 minutes from Quinnipiac University. The house was very clean and the check in process was smooth. Stacie was extremely responsive to our inquiries, despite being on vacation in a different time zone. The sitting room area overlooked the Long Island sound, and the master bedroom and kitchen also had beautiful views. The house was stocked with some board games, and also outdoor games (Spikeball, KanJam, etc.) The beds were extremely comfortable as well! The weather wasn't cooperative, so we didn't get to visit the beach that was down the street, but I highly recommend this house and hope to stay here again in the future.
Sometimes you stay somewhere and the actual accomodations don't live up to the pictures online. Not the case here. This property is every bit as nice and clean as the photos make it appear. The downstairs is a very spacious, open layout. From the kitchen you can see all the way to the front windows. The bedrooms are very comfortable. Upstairs bathroom is large. House was very clean and had everything we needed. Seriously, no one in our party had a single complaint. Didn't need to contact Mike and Stacie for any issues but exchanged a few updates with each other and never had a problem reaching them.
I recommend this property very highly. You will not be disappointed.
This home is beautiful and looks directly out to the water. We were 8 women celebrating our 70th birthday and the house couldn't have beem more suitable for us. Lots of open spaces and seating areas. After it stopped raining it was nice to be able to just cross the street and go for a walk on the beach. There were some many good restaurants and things to do in the area for our long weekend. We couldn't have picked a more perfect place, and Staci and Mike were great hosts.
The house was absolutely perfect! We had plenty of space for everyone and the accoutrements were perfect for our family. There were chairs and toys for the grandchildren and most importantly, the bed in the master was wonderful
Canât say enough about this property. We are not novice home renters and this was one of the best properties in which we have vacationed
This is the second time we have stayed at this house. The house was immaculate & very comfortable with wonderful views. We will stay here again in the future.
Stacie and Mike's home in West Haven was absolutely wonderful. The common area was perfect for hang outs with a large, modern kitchen and dining room to accommodate bigger parties. Watching the sunset from the large front windows was a wonderful experience. The back yard is a lovely spot with a grill and fire pit, assuming you can break away from the ocean view. Beds were comfortable and the upstairs master bedroom is especially gorgeous with its view of the beach.
Speaking of the beach: it's an easy walk and was mostly vacant throughout our entire weekend. It can be a bit rocky in the water though so be mindful if you have any younger guests in your party. West Haven was lovely with close places to walk to, though word of warning for any vegetarian/vegans that your selections will be a bit limited. This is more of a pizza/seafood town.
If you're planning a stay in West Haven, I'm not sure you can come up with a better spot, both for its location or its quality. Hands down one of the nicer places I've ever stayed.
We can to town for our daughters graduation from New Haven! This place was the perfect location and distance from everything we wanted to do! Sad we could only stay for 2 days but definitely enjoyed the house! We travel a lot and this was the most inviting and well stocked place weâve ever visited! We made all of our meals at the house for the weekend and the kitchen had everything we could have needed and more! 5 stars for sure!
The home was beautiful and exactly as advertised.
The hosts were accommodating and easy to reach.
The home was fully stocked with every essential. I wish every play I have rented was this one.
This was the perfect place to stay in West Haven. Beautiful views overlooking the Sound, close to delicious restaurants and a really nice house! We had a blast!!!
