The quaint, quiet house and yard were perfect for a peaceful long weekend with family. The house feels private despite being on the main road due to beautiful plants and landscaping. The yard was perfect for the family dog. There are ants, spiders, and a mouse but it's a country house. I was very pleased with the house and thought it was a good value based on what we paid.
The fenced in yard and everything was great for our pets. Communication with the hosts was also excellent! Everything was clean, the A/C window units and ceiling fans did the job of keeping us cool. All the appliances worked, including the washer and dryer in the basement.
I love older houses, this one was charming, clean and pefect for our family. It had a fully fenced back yard for the dog, a pond and wasn't far from anything. A great stay!
Picture posted had nothing to do with actual property, bus, spiders and a mouse. Had to call owner for loose railing outside and broken/loose bricked step. Shower upstairs-poor draing. Next vacation better questions. House is on an main county road w traffic 60 mph. Wasnt ideal for my family. Better questions for next vrbo vacation
Smelly house and rude hostâŠ.The place was dirty and bathroom was very smelly which caused the entire house to smell bad. The water smells like rusted water and the windowsills were filled with dead bugs when we opened the windows to âair the houseâ the worst part was the bath tub was clogged. The owner did work with us to send a plumber to fix the bathtub issues and someone came to mopped the bathroom and kitchen floors. When we expressed our displeasure and requested a compensation, the owner rudely texted and over the phone said 2-3 times that we can pack our bags and go. We had to wait until the next morning for the plumber to come @8am. The washer/dryer wasnât accessible since the basement was dirty and flooded. When we asked the owner, he said we arenât suppose to use the washer/dryerâŠbut it was LISTED on VRBO. Vrbo wasnât helping neither. They werenât able to find another location. They offered to atlas have the owner not charge the 159 cleaning feeâŠbut the owner said he wasnât refunding any money if we stayed. We ended up staying and cleaned the house since we have a 3y/o and 6y/o children playing. Not to mention, one of the meshed window was opened so there were bugs in the house. We made the best of the trip, lost our first day reservation of activities trying to get to the bottoms of this. We didnât plan a trip, Took off from work, drove 3 hours with made reservations just to have the host tell us to pack our bags and go back home.
It's an older house, but it's got cute rustic kind of decor. The property itself is great - lots of space for kids and the fenced in area for dogs is great. We would stay again.
The real draw for us was the proximity to Foxwoods and the fenced in yard for my son to run and play. We were pleased to find the house just as described: a bit rustic but charming and with plenty of space for us to spread out. The hosts were communicative and helpful. We didnât have time to make use of the kayaks/pond but the kids enjoyed a sâmores night at the fire ring, and were treated to a gorgeous display of fireflies at sundown. The only caveat I would say is that it is a hard place for people with mobility challenges due to bedrooms upstairs and cement steps into the house, and for people who are not used to country living, they might find it a little rustic for their tastes. And as with any place in New England, if you visit in June or July, bring bug spray!
Affordable, fun, relaxing house. Indoor and outdoor things to do. Some pretty glass decor in the dining room, so I easily moved a few things to temporarily kid proof it. A/C in bedrooms, ceiling fans in almost every room. The hosts were very responsive and addressed our concerns exceptionally well.
Super busy road. Lawn not mowed. Outside lights didn't work. The water is rusty brown, ant the water pressure is terrible! Couldn't take a shower how bad it was plus like I said the water was rusty brown. Missing and broken filthy window blinds. Ants spiders and ear wigs in the house. Sink in bathroom didn't drain. Missing remote for one for one tv. The manger did s
