Vacation rentals with a kayak in Washington County

My main search was for a pet friendly rental so I could invite friends with a senior golden retriever. And secondly I wanted to be near the ocean. Having lived on Cape Cod for 25 years, I moved back to Connecticut a year ago after the passing of my wife. But the call of the ocean never fades and this rental was steps from East Beach. My stay was in February and the weather wasn't the best, but beach walks are always best when the only footsteps in the sand are your own. The rental was very accommodating with 3 bedrooms, a spacious living area and large, fully equipped kitchen. Plenty of outdoor seating is also included. Melissa was very attentive and always responded quickly when needed. I definitely recommend this rental for a peaceful adult retreat or for a full family vacation. Kids will love it with the big yard and kayaks available. Enjoy, John

The house was as beautiful as it looked on the site. It has to be one of the most thoughtful houses that we've stayed at. The house was clean, well stocked, and had plenty of soaps, towels, etc. Arthur was easy to reach and very helpful.

The house was beautiful and scenery breathtaking. We loved watching the ice fishing, skating and go carting on the lake! We even went out on the frozen lake! It was close to my daughter’s home in Voluntown…. Only 4 minutes away! The kitchen was well stocked and we had everything we needed. They went above and beyond as we were there to celebrate my granddaughters’ first birthday! They left a gift for her and some welcome gifts for us too! Amazing!! They brought a table and chairs for extra seating!! Phil and Staci were amazing hosts and always responsive. We would definitely consider staying here again.

My family and I loved the home on the lake! It was very clean, well decorated and had plenty of space for all of us. Daniela was an amazing host, she was always available for any questions and gave us a lot of tips about the local spots. We had everything we needed as the property was well stocked. We really enjoyed the beauty of this property and lake!

Bria’s home was outstanding in just about every way. It was absolutely adorable, clean to the point that everything looked brand new, appointed with nearly everything we could need, and super close to Narragansett Beach and shops. When we arrived, we were impressed to see a bowl of water set up for our dogs and a bag of treats for them on the counter (along with an assortment of goodies for the kids, aged 6 and 9, and adults as well). Very thoughtful! We found the yard to be an amazing asset for our dogs, who normally need time to adjust to new surroundings on vacation. They felt right at home! The neighborhood was peaceful. The only neighbor we saw smiled and waved as he drove by. As small as it is on paper, the home did not feel small to our family of 4. It was just right for a week’s vacation. Bria was a responsive host, helping us find everything we needed in the area. All in all, I would highly recommend Bria’s place!

Kenneth’s place was clean, comfortable, tastefully decorated and looked just like the pictures. We felt right at home and had everything we needed for a comfortable stay. The location was perfect! We were able to walk easily to the nearby beach and it is only a few minutes from all of our favorite restaurants. If you’re looking for a few quiet and peaceful days away from everything, this is the perfect spot.

Perfect stay! The location was private, beautiful and safe and also close by to Oceanside restaurants. The house was perfect for my husband, toddler and infant with lots of room to run around outside. Waking up every morning to coffee with a sunrise over the pond and the fireplace on was heaven. Thank you for the magic memories!

Perfect fit for our plans! It is centrally located with a nice area for morning /evening walks. Lovely setting.

A wonderful house, a convenient but quiet location on the island, and very pretty and peaceful views. The house is extremely comfortable and nicely decorated to provide a homey and real feel for the island. The lovely view looks out over the island at Trim's Pond, the Great Salt Pond beyond that, and the ocean beyond that. And a highlight of the house is the expansive deck, which has a variety of chairs and seating options, and part of it is covered for shade. The hosts also were extremely accommodating and helpful. Our family had a great vacation here, we hope to be back, and we highly recommend this to others.

Really enjoy our stay. View off deck to ocean in front or back deck for bird watching in pond. Perfect! Location is close to local stores for any kind of shopping you would need. Groceries, bakeries, gifts, marine-boat, rental, bait, and Dinning.All within a few miles. If your into fishing, the breachways in the area can't be beat. With the best beaches, salt marshes, ponds, fishing in the state right out your door the location is 5 stars!The house itself is clean and comfortable. Kitchen is a little tight. Expect to be side stepping to open refrig. freezer. But not a big deal. Steven was a great host. Helpful and answered all my messages. Wish could of stayed longer.

This was our 2nd stay at the Lake Cottage. The cottage is the perfect size, very clean and well kept. The view from inside and from the patio of the lake is stunning! Reb is the perfect host - ready with suggestions of where to eat, etc. if we didn't feel like cooking. Relaxing indoors or out was refreshing - just what we needed. We hope to make it there a 3rd time next year.

Charming "Windy Corner" cottage is a piece of heaven on earth that you don't want to leave once you've arrived. The location in the midst of grand oak trees and the garden are beautiful, and spending time kajaking and swimming in the lake is just the best way to unwind with friends or family from daily hectic.

The house is beautiful and well-equipped. The peninsula/island setting and grounds are magnificent. The owners were helpful and very responsive. We hope to come back next year.

We had a great long weekend at Jackie’s house! We are a family of 5 and felt very comfortable in the space. The house is squeaky clean, and we appreciated the big yard with the fire pit. The kitchen has everything needed plus welcome extras. The nearby beaches were great and accessible with the provided pass, and when we asked to borrow the kayaks /paddle boards Jackie responded right away. Thanks again, and we would definitely recommend/stay again when in the area.

It is a great cottage in a beautiful setting with lots of water toys! Mary Ann is very easy to work with! We have need several times and love it. Bill

Alison was a great host. And her cabin was so beautiful and clean. Definitely recommend coming to the area in the warmer months for a short stay.

Clean and cozy cabin. Close to Mystic without being right in the thick of it. We enjoyed a night by the fire with a friendly local fisherman. It worked nicely for our short trip to the area.

Great spot. We weren’t there to take advantage of the little marina and kayaks— though that would have been cool! Had a weekend event in New London and this was very easy, super straightforward and quiet. Thank you, Paul!

Great lakeside retreat! Perfect for our small family!

Paul was very responsive. When we got there our room had not been cleaned. We got in touch with him and he immediately switched our room to a clean one which was fine. He was very apologetic and even brought us a bottle of prosecco. The place was cute, modern, and clean. Can't really walk to anything because it's off a busy road but it sits on the river with a beautiful view and many chairs to sit in and enjoy. We made a fire in the fire pit and cooked on the grill one chilly night. It was very nice. Close and convenient to many attractions in the area. We had our dog with us and she enjoyed it too.

Angela was a very gracious host, responsive and friendly. The setting is delightfully rustic. Didn't have the weather to avail ourselves of the lakefront amenities, but we had a very peaceful and relaxing weekend! Thank you Angela!
