Great stay in Stony Creek Village with a view of Long Island Sound and short walk to the pier, Stony Creek Market (breakfast & lunch). I used the Library and went to services at the Stony Creek Congregational Church. Overall, a nice experience.

Phoenix Engine #1

SarahRating, 5 stars1 month ago
We very much enjoyed our stay!! The entrance doors are so unique and special, and the apartment was perfect! We traveled with 2 adults and 2 teenagers. We were greeted with very clear instructions to the property and parking. We arrived very late at night, and had no issues with getting into the apartment. The teenagers were thrilled to find treats left for us. We especially love the special touch of the postcards of the property! There was plenty of room for all of us to stay comfortably. We highly recommend this apartment.

The Millhouse Downtown Chester

PhilipRating, 5 stars3 weeks ago
This is our second time staying at this property. Four of us were visiting people in the area and The Millhouse is a great location to explore the area, with nice places to eat only steps away on Chester Center Main Street. The stream-side location makes it a very unique experience and the interior of the property is very nicely decorated and maintained.

Beautiful Lakefront Retreat with Private Dock

JoeRating, 5 stars1 month ago
A gem of a home if you’re looking for a waterfront property with great lake access. David’s home is well stocked with everything you need - from baking to cooking , from laundry to great choices of board games , a nice library if reading by the water is what you care to do . If you’re a bass fisherman like me , you have direct access to Squantz Pond, which can be a great fishing alternative to nearby Candlewood Lake. The property is close to the main road and traffic can be a nuisance to folks who are not used to it . City folks like me don’t mind it. David was a great host , very responsive . There was a slight miscommunication during check in , but that was taken care of right away . My family hopes to come back again . BTW, for those who don’t know how to play the piano , take some brief lessons before coming and impress your folks. Joe

Cozy Beach - Direct Waterfront!

SarahRating, 5 stars5 months ago
This house is a gem! I came to stay a week in off season with my dog, Rollo. The location is breathtaking, right on the Long Island Sound. We had a great time exploring the beach, looking for all the biodiversity in the birds and sea creatures, watching the boats, and this place is relatively close to an airport so watching the planes land and take off was awsome as well. We came for privacy, and I expected the beach to be a little more private than it was due to my dog's reactivity. But the neighbors did not seem to have issues with us, and once you are close to the water, especially in low tide, the beach is pretty open for all the locals. Walking around, the locals all waved and said hello. Not too many restaurants close by, but the Lobster Shack down the road had good food! Would stay again! The deck alone was worth it!

Amazing 2BR Riverfront Gem

PattyRating, 5 stars1 week ago
Hard to believe how close to the highway this is. It’s so peaceful and serene. You look out onto a marshy body of water and can watch the ducks and ducklings and a resident crane. It’s lovely. Yet 3 minutes from a supermarket to stock up on supplies. Would definitely recommend.

Water front home with lake amenities

HelenRating, 5 stars5 months ago
We wanted a place to gather with our adult children and 2 very young grandchildren. The layout provided sleep and bathroom space for each family that gave privacy. The open concept living-kitchen space helped us feel like we were together and sharing in the cooking and child care. Even in winter the lake view is peaceful and lovely. Cozy, well equipped, and the lake vibe made this a wonderful family get away. So glad we chose the lake house for our Holiday get together.

Absolutely loved this location! The kitchen was perfect to cook our own dinner, and the dining room table is absolutely awesome. Love the chairs & bench, along with the view of the tv. Everything that was needed, was there. It was an awesome staycation. Thankyou so much!
