This is a great hide away just across the street from the beach. Karen was wonderful- very responsive and great communication before arriving. No complaints at all about our stay, but just a few things to note for those looking in the future (although all fairly represented in the photos)! Beds are on the floor and are soft- may not be great for anyone with back issues. No TV at this time, but wifi password provided and easy to stream from personal devices (and here to be outdoors anyhow!) And lastly- may not be a great place for people who are not dog lovers- neighbors were very friendly and polite, but have a large dog with a hefty bark that could scare kids or adults who aren't dog lovers. Otherwise its a great little escape and had a great time. Thanks Karen!

The host canceled this reservation 7 days before arrival. This is an automated posting.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Karen's place. The close proximity to the beach was perfect, and all the windows in the front room made that area a relaxing place to be when not at the beach. We would not hesitate to stay here again if we are in the area.

Perfect small getaway for my wife and I and 2 kids under 2 years old! Small private beach area literally right across the street perfect for this age as well as a trolley ride and museum 10 min drive away! The trolley was the perfect activity for kids our age... enough stores around to get basic needs and still nice quiet area

We had a great stay at Karen's beach house for a relaxing girls getaway. We had complete privacy but Karen was always reachable and responded quickly in case we needed anything. The first floor was spacious and open, much bigger than we expected. When you open the windows the breeze from the water feels great. The master bedroom is open and spacious with a screen door to a small balcony that is awesome to sit on for breakfast or to enjoy the night air. The guest bedroom was also very nice and a decent size. The bathroom and kitchen were both clean and had basic items we could use if we needed to. We loved the simple earthy boho decor and the colors decorating each room. We could not believe how cute the place was and how close it was to the beach. People on the private beach were friendly. It was a great place to sit and enjoy the sunshine, collect shells, and listen to the waves. The public beach is very close and it is more of the classic beach experience plus it was free, clean, and right across from a great spot for lunch or dinner. The neighborhood is very friendly, comfortable and feels very safe. We expected the lack of air conditioning to take a little adjustment, but the ability to keep windows open at night helps keep the temperature comfortable for sleeping. With the windows open, you can listen to the waves in the distance, which is really nice. The sunshine is very bright in the morning so you may want to bring an eye mask if you want to sleep in and the birds wake up very early near the master bedroom so any light sleepers would want to use the guest bedroom. All in all, we had an excellent stay and would definitely stay again. Thank you Karen for a great place to stay in East Haven!

Very nice home walking distance to the beach. Very comfortable Karen was a wonderful hostess. Would definitely stay again!

Karen's home is absolutely wonderful. Rooms are great, the kitchen is great, you get a nice view upstairs, and the beach is right there. There are a couple of Resturants that are a walk away to enjoy some fresh seafood. Topped my group's expectations, and very much thanks to Karen for her strong sense of communication.

We had a great time renting Karen's home. It is very spacious downstairs with all the necessities. The walk to both the beach and the restaurant are very short. Cleanliness was spot on everything was perfect. There is no Television which is fine but would be a nice addition for late night relaxation. I would recommend this place to anyone, well worth it. Tyler,

Great communication. It is a great home situated in a wonderful area. Thanks Teresa!

Very pretty house, well furnished and well stocked. Gracious and very responsive host.

The house is very charming and well appointed. We regretted not being able to take advantage of the outdoor grill and patio but it was perfect for our needs, centrally located and spacious enough for 3 busy professionals.

My family of three has found this to be a very comfortable, clean and well equipped vacation home, which is why we've stayed multiple times dating to a time before it was listed here.

The house had everything that we needed. It was comfortable, clean, and in a really good location. Close to lots of good places to eat. We enjoyed our stay, and will definitely return.

First, the location is stellar. It's a short walk to restaurants, a short drive to shops and anything else you need. It's a beautiful area, even in winter. The home itself is lovely, nicely decorated and really comfortable. We were pleasantly surprised by how well-stocked it was, we didn't need to buy a thing other than our own food. The pics don't do the home justice, it's beautifully updated but still maintains a beach cottage vibe. We'd rent it again in a heartbeat. We've vacationed in this area for almost 30 years, and this is by far our favorite rental.

Awesome place to stay! Highly recommend!

A perfect spot to visit or work in Branford, especially near Linden or Pawson Point. Just a short stroll away from some good restaurants, or a nice walk along the shore of Long Island Sound. The quaint village of Branford is a short drive away. The home is great for a couple or small family, with a nice kitchen and dining area. The Master Bedroom is spacious, and the bathroom is wonderful with a walk in shower and separate Jacuzzi tub. Internet was fast and there were plenty of TV channels to choose from, after a long day. We'll definitely be back!

We did not get to meet Serkan, but he was available and made sure that we had everything we needed. The apartment is exactly as pictured and a great choice for our 2-night stay. It is just a few minutes away by car from downtown New Haven, Yale and even beaches - we went to the Lighthouse Park ($25, but worth it for the kids) as well as the West Haven beaches (free). Our boys loved Serkan's place! They slept downstairs near the air conditioning unit and we slept on the mezzanine. Even though there is a ventilation system upstairs, it still gets pretty hot at night - if there are only two of you, you may want to consider sleeping on the couch or the comfy air mattress. It might not be the ideal place if you plan on cooking a lot, but does the trick if you are planning on staying a night or two.

This was a great Airbnb stay! Serkan was at the apartment when we arrived. The place was clean and had everything that we needed. He and his girlfriend even put together a box of treats for my boyfriend and I, since we were celebrating our anniversary. Overall, very thoughtful hosts- we have no complaints whatsoever!

Serkan and his girlfriend were extremely attentive and friendly. Beautiful home with amazing design. The house was very clean and close to lots of nice places for food. They are amazing hosts and we will definitely come back one day!

It's easy to get to this house if you use (SENSITIVE CONTENTS HIDDEN) map. The home address was 100% accuracy. And also you can get to the beach park which is small but quiet peaceful. Just 8 min to Yale campus.

Close to everything! Serkan was a great host who made sure we had what we needed before our arrival.

Serkan's place is pretty convenient for business trip, a couple or 1-2 nights of a family (just keep in mind it's a couch, not a bed). Overall it was good, not great for the value. I wish the stove worked and that we understood that the couch were not a sleeping one. That being said, It's well located close to park and the ocean and there's space to park. Checkin was super easy and checkout too.

This place was an awesome deal for our trip on a budget. Worked out well for our needs - three people crashing near New Haven for a night. Serkan was easy to communicate with so check in and out was a breeze.

A nice place, convenient for anyone commuting up and down the Northeast, looking for a place to crash. It's a simple place - nothing too fancy, but convenient with parking and close to main roads. Host was great with communication, and made it easy. Would stay again!

This cottage was just as described. It is located in a residential community with a small bay beach within walking distance. The cottage was clean and looked just like it does in the pictures. Communication with the host was excellent. Very fast responses and very accommodating.

Cute, cozy cottage a short walk from the water. The front, screened-in porch is a perfect reading spot and stayed cool on hot days, and the large back deck was great for sunning and hanging out. The area offers beautiful towns and beaches, and the Thimble Islands are an easy paddle from the nearby beach. If you're a kayaker or SUP boarder this is a must-visit spot.

This place is like a dream come true! My girlfriend and I loved the quiet surroundings. Short walk to a private beach which was amazing, not to mention the outside shower in the back of the place which was perfect to wash the sand off. We would definitely recommend this private, quiet, romantic getaway!

We got to the house late in the evening. The bedrooms are tiny. The sitting room is very sweet, just like the photographs, the kitchen is very nice too. But the house was not clean. There were adult hairs in the bath and around the wc. Dried food in kitchen sink, counter, fridge and freezer. We took pictures and sent them to both the owners and air b and b. Amanda (Mike's daughter) said it had been cleaned. We ended up moving out the next day at lunchtime. It has been extremely disappointing for us as we trusted that we would have a clean house to stay in. All in all this experience could not have been any worse for us and this house has proved to be a real low point to booking property through air b and b. There is another house very close to this property in the rear garden, which is not clearly described by the selection of pictures online. We would absolutely not recommend this booking after our experience.

Perfect escape to relax and connect. Perfect for a small family, close to town for groceries etc. Cottage has all the necessities, walks around the neighborhood, picking up shells on the beach, wish we could have stayed longer!

Little Harbor is a great little cottage in a secluded part of Connecticut. You're on a small, very quiet private road with other houses, but very few people about. Four minutes walk down the road is the private beach, which overlooks a small sheltered bay. It's terrific. It's a ten minute drive into Guilford, which is a wonderful town. Small, but several amazing cafes and restaurants. The green is pleasant, and there are a few historic buildings and small museums to visit. The house is small, but fine for two or four people. Everything is on one level, with the living room and kitchen open plan and comfortable. The two bedrooms are off the living room. One has a slatted sliding door, while the other has a curtain in the doorway. Both rooms have blackout blinds, so can be made dark to suit you. The bathroom has a lovely roll top bath tub and shower over it. The porch at the front is large, covered, and glazed. it has two sofas and a couple of chairs, so plenty of space to relax. Outside, the deck is fantastic. It's about as large as the living room, with chairs, tables, umbrella, and a large gas grill. A third of it is covered with a veranda. I hope you stay when it's sunny, as you'll be out there a lot. It overlooks the grass yard and onto trees at the back. It's pretty private, with one neighbor (who we didn't see) able to see you. There are steps down to the yard, which also runs around to the front of the house. Very quick and helpful communication with Amanda and Mike. Overall, a lovely area, and a lovely place to stay.

Great location, easy parking, nice house for a getaway.

Great stay near the beach!

Abie's place was clean and comfortable. It was the ideal place for me and my family.

Abie is a welcoming host and her place is clean, cheerful and conveniently located.

Nice historic home. We had a great stay, and Abie and her family were great hosts. The street is busy, so we were grateful to have the option to park in the rear of the house. We would stay again.

This place was pretty quaint! Nicely located and pretty spacious. Abie was a great host and it was a quick Lyft to downtown!

Abie is a very nice woman who was very flexible with us when we had a snafu on our drive and had to arrange a much later arrival time than expected. At the same time, I thought the pics of the beach seemed (URL HIDDEN) doesn't seem to be 'close' to the water, to me. Also, although the house was clean, we were disappointed with the neighborhood as well as the condition of the house. It has very slanted floors up and down and is at a lower standard of aesthetic than any Airbnb I have ever stayed at.

The ocean is an easy jog or bike ride away at 1.5 miles over gently rolling terrain. There is a sidewalk all the way and a generous breakdown lane as well if, like me, you'd rather not run on a sidewalk. While the beach area isn't like the Cape, by any means, you can swim in a protected area, look for shells, or participate in water activities. Other beaches are nearby as well, but this is handy for a stroll at various times of the day without going far from the house. The house itself was very clean. As described, it is cozy, small in square footage, but plenty big enough to feel as though you have space around you. The half bath upstairs, located in the bedroom area, is convenient as is the full bath downstairs. Parking on the street is recommended (and safe) as the driveway is very narrow and used by the owners throughout the day. Either the owner or her daughter work out logistics with you and they are very accommodating. Since they live next door, problems could be fixed straight away (we had none). Very easy access to/from I-95 and all points of interest in New Haven and the surrounding towns. Overall, a worthwhile experience!

We needed an extended stay and were lucky to find Abie's place. Great location to New Haven and the shoreline. Everything we needed was provided. The hosts were extremely warm and friendly and made us feel at home. Would definitely recommend Abie's place!

Abie's place is the perfect spot to stay for anyone looking to stay in New Haven! The house is adorable and the location is extremely conveniently located to everything. Abie was readily available if we had any questions and she gave us some great tips about the neighborhood. Next time I'm in the area, I look forward to staying here again!

The place is lovely and has a great scenic view of the water. I think Joyce is a great host and is very helpful and kind.

Everything was as described. Stunning view. Huge kitchen. Kayaking was great. Thank you both.

The host was welcoming and the place was as described. It made for a fun and interesting stay to be in a seaside escape. Coffee and some breakfast nibbles provided.

Joyce was extremely welcoming, kind and knowledgeable on things to do in the area. The listing was exactly as described. The location was unique and beautiful. Boasting amazing views of the sound from our room and the common area. The neighborhood was very nice as well. My wife and I walked to nearby lighthouse point and if the weather had been a little warmer we would have walked the other paths around the sound. It is about a 12-minute ride to downtown New Haven.

Joyce and Patrick were there when we arrived and made us feel right at home from the get-go, Joyce giving us a tour of the property so we would know where everything was. This place is as great as described in reviews and the photos depict the property well. We went kayaking a couple of times thanks to Patrick and Joyce for the kayak and life vests. We also walked 1/4 mile to Lighthouse Point Park and had several nice hours at the beach there. (Don't drive, it costs a lot to take a car in, but free to pedestrians.) This place and the hosts are a treasure. The hosts provided basics (food in refrigerator, coffee/tea, salad dressings, etc.) which was so convenient for travelers.

We had a wonderful stay at Joyce's. She was easy to communicate with and helpful with our questions. The home is lovely and right next to the water. Perfect for a one night getaway!

Awesome people in an amazing house. The view is stunning! William definitely ne back

Pat and Joyce were great hosts. Very welcoming and the night we arrived they invited us to join an informal potluck dinner and card games in the beautiful main floor of the old yacht club. Water view from the bedroom is expansive and soothing. Comfortable bed and use of big kitchen. Fifteen minute drive to downtown New Haven. Nice area for bicycling during warmer months with two state parks nearby.

Superb Host! John truly goes out of his way to make you feel at Home! Plus the place is amazing(with Netflix included!) Would definitely come back to his place! Gracias John!

Very nice place with a large living area and spacious bedroom and closet. Really enjoyed my stay here!

Impeccably clean and close to New Haven. Over a bridge that is illuminated beautifully at night. Quiet neighborhood.

Karen is a sweet person. She was there when we arrived although she said that the key would be in a safe pick-up place. The apartment however is weird, empty and not cozy. The bed sheets had a terrible cigarette smell. The wifi password was nowhere to be found. The neighborhood isn't attractive. That said, with some extra cleaning and some extra decorating efforts, this place has potential. The sheet's cigarettes smell was a big turn off though.

Karen's place was in a quiet, distant neighborhood. It's great if you have a car or you want to get a taxi, but it's a bit tough when walking to and from (nevertheless, manageable). It was a clean place and Karen was really nice to us. I recommend it, but make sure you know a bit about the city because you can get easily confused. The house is really nice!

It's a comfortable house, lots of room to move and relax and in a very quiet neighborhood. The back yard is lovely, comfortable chairs to lounge in, it's a short walk to the water. We can highly recommend the Lobster Shack and the Stony Creek brewery.

I had the best vacation I've ever had with loved ones. This home was full of comfort, luxurious bed clothes, towels, music, and a well stocked kitchen. The location was quiet, the garden uplifting, and had a beautiful walk to the beach. I made a memory there that I will cherish my whole life.

My family very much enjoyed our visit to this charming town. Beth's home is unique and cozy. I enjoyed the eclectic decorations and was very pleased to have chosen a home of a fellow cook. I found all the things I needed for baking, cooking, grilling and serving. The location was perfect for us and the neighborhood was very peaceful.

The perfect home away from home!

Great place, very spacious and clean - a beautiful setting minutes from the ocean. Beth was very helpful.

Thanks Beth, great location. Quiet neighbourhood. We loved your backyard and house had a great layout. You provided lots of towels which was great. Cleaning staff definitely needs some work, but overall we had a great stay. Thank you!!

This was our first time using airbnb. We will definitely use it again. The house was fantastic. Everything was as represented, no surprises. The host was super responsive to all questions we had. We were there for a wedding. Other guests, who stayed in hotels, were extremely jealous.

A comfortable, well decorated respite less than 10 minutes from New Haven-Yale hustle. We loved the early morning walks along the beach and exploring Branford.

The pictures don't do this gem of a beach cottage any justice! What a divine and soul healing experience to stay at this lovey cottage! It's perfect!

Everything was so accurately described and the host went above and beyond in answering my questions. Extremely responsive. This is one of the best AirBnB experiences I have had yet. Perfect location one house behind the water, centrally located to great food and lots of beach options. The queen size pull out was amazingly comfortable. Had a great time and hoping to be back!

This was a great place, right on the water in Branford and so comfortable. Loved the fireplace and location! Easy check in and check out. Definitely look forward to staying again! Dont forget to get fresh seafood at Buds!

We had a wonderful time at Rachel's adorable beach house. It was exactly as advertised. Our 2 year old daughter was delighted to run around the yard and take walks along the water...HUGE bonus that family friendly restaurants and an excellent playground are in walking distance! Hope to come back again: )

The home and town were very lovely! Rachel had every stop and question laid out for us before we arrived. We would love to come back in the summer!

Homes is exactly as described and a wonderful beach location. I felt completely at home.

The place is great. It's on the water and there's a nice little stroll you can take along the sound. Very cute town also. And the most comfortable pull out couch I have ever slept on!

This charming Branford beach house is well kept and tidy. A cozy getaway with a breathtaking ocean view. We were there in mid-winter and the heat worked well. Rachel was very responsive and answered our questions immediately. We look forward to future visits at the beach house and recommend it highly to other vacationers.

Robert is an exceptional host. Not only caring but a chef who enjoys preparing a delicous breakfast. Staying at the Tyler house is as close to stepping back in history as I could imagine.

What a gem of a place! We look forward to staying again and exploring even more! So close from the city as well! Merci Robert!

It was a pleasure to stay with Robert. He is an attentive host and also a warm person. He invited us to join him and his friends for a glass of wine and breakfast, but also gave us plenty of space to do our own thing. He's got great stories from his many careers, languages, and homes. The house is special too. Though built in 1710, it has all the modern amenities. It's been a bit mistreated over the years, and I'm glad that someone like Robert has showed up to take good care of it.

Robert is a wonderful host and the house has so much history and charm!

There was a major disorder in the house and although Bob is very friendly and communicative, I think he should pay much more attention keeping the place clean and presentable. Sheets were dark blue, so there was no way telling if they were clean or not, and having the bad impression of the house in general, we have serious doubts. Our room could not be locked from the inside, so there was no way to secure privacy. Besides, we payed for a night including breakfast, but Bob left without even mentioning an apology or whatever.

Robert is a doll - a wonderful and super accomodating host! My husband and I can't wait to stay at his place again in the fall :)

My wife Kathleen and I were coming home to South Central Pennsylvania from our annual trip to a family cottage near Lake Winnipesaukee, New Hampshire. Our two-year-old and dog were in tow, and after a very long ten-hour trip to the cabin, we decided to book a night's stay somewhere close to halfway. The home was built at the turn of the 18th century, and it is beautiful. Hand-hewn beams adorn the house, which features a lovely sitting room and rustic setting. A portion of the downstairs serves as a functional space for weaving, with looms and spinning wheels. The room in which we stayed was comfortable and homey, including a bathtub and access to a full bath. The real star of this house is the host Robert, whose kindness and hospitality were unrivaled in our experiences with Airbnb. He was accommodating and gracious, full of life and personality and kindness. We were expecting to arrive, toss our stuff in a room, get some food, and go to bed. What we ended up getting was so much more. We enjoyed talking with Robert throughout the evening, listening to his wonderful stories and discussing everything from literature to theology to politics and linguistics. If there ever was a conversationalist, he's one for the books - he's as interesting as a person can get. We've never before stayed at a place where the host was so sweet and inviting. I can honestly say, he truly made it feel like home for us. My wife and I had initially planned on getting a hotel, but when we saw this place, we couldn't resist staying. I'm glad we didn't - it was truly an extension of our vacation. We plan on making a visit to the John Tyler House a new annual tradition on our trip back from New Hampshire. If you're looking for a bed and nothing else, book a hotel. If you want a lively, interactive, historic experience with an amazing host... you won't find better.

Robert's colonial home has character in spades -- just like Robert! The location is convenient to downtown Branford and many CT shoreline activities. The bedrooms are modest, yet comfortable. One of the two bedrooms faces a busier commercial two-lane road. You may want to be aware of that. It wouldn't have been an issue for me, though I did choose the back bedroom. Overall, it's a very nice place livened by Robert's welcoming hospitality and engaging personality.

This was an absolutely charming and private get away! Doss greeted me with a warm welcome and even took me in her car to show me the beach and suggestions on where to park. The room and bath were clean, comfortable and had the most wonderful cross breeze. I had the best night sleep I'd had in a while. I brought a girlfriend by to see the house so she can book some time away. too. I can't wait to go back either with my partner or again by myself for a relaxing weekend to myself. I enjoyed the beach, the backyard and garden and the convenience to local Branford restaurants. Thank you, Doss!

As pictured, the house was cute, clean and comfortable. Doss was gracious and the house was nice and cool on a very hot day! Thanks, Doss!

This place was just as advertised. Doss is an excellent hostess and communicates very well with guests. She is very knowledgeable of the area and her recommendations for restaurants and activities were spot on. Her home is inviting and the outdoor are is beautiful.If you choose her place you will not be disappointed.

Loved that there were amenities such as shampoo and conditioner, fresh towels, great quality toilet paper that you would expect at a hotel but with a warm welcoming and homey feel. Breakfast was so sweet with toast, butter, and ham, fresh fruit and strawberries, and lovely brewed coffee. Doss let us store some of our things in the fridge which was very kind. The AC was not set up yet and it was 90 degrees the first night but she provided a large fan and there were multiple windows and light blankets to use. Thank you so much for the stay!

My fiance and I stayed at Doss's place for 2 nights to attend a wedding nearby and had a great stay. Doss was very friendly and helpful but also respectful of our privacy. We had everything we needed in the upstairs loft, and the space was clean and comfortable. She even had available a breakfast of toast, fruits, coffee, and tea. Would definitely recommend!

Absolutely lovely rooms--warm, inviting, private, spotless and comfortable-- and all the little details anticipated (drinks and snacks in room; fan and AC on when arriving on a very warm and humid afternoon; cell phone charger). Host was superb--gracious, informative and respectful. Highly recommended to others and would definitely stay here again!

Doss is a great host. Her house is beautiful and clean. She is gracious and went out of her way to make our stay comfortable.

Doss is a great host: a very clean house, great communication, good breakfast... A real superhost. Thank you Doss for a nice stay!

Paul and Donna were very welcoming. Their home is in a great location but the rental studio is in need of renovating. I am a tall person and not skinny. I found the bathroom layout inconvenient. The toilet is less than a foot from the wall of the shower making it difficult to sit and straddle the wall. The shower works but the stall is tight and would be better served with a hand-held. The shower head cleared my head by only 2 inches. The floor throughout was spongy which made me wonder what was going on under the rugs. I was hoping it could be a place for me to use again while visiting New Haven, but it was not for me.

Nice cozy place that is near public transportation. It has the look of a typical Connecticut home so you feel like you are from Ct. The host are very nice and loved the shower!

Paul and Donna were great hosts. Everything was as described, and I had everything I needed. The room was perfect for my two night stay.

Loved the room! It is on a quiet street just outside New Haven. Just down the road is the water and marina. The room was clean and comfortable. Paul was a terrific host and easy to communicate with. He was also very thoughtful and stocked the room with coffee and items for breakfast. He even offered eggs from his chickens! Highly recommend staying here.

Paul was a great host. He communicated well, made sure we had everything we needed and gave us our privacy. Place is great. Own floor. Had everything I could have wanted including a fridge and some nice teas. Thanks for hosting us. Much appreciated. -Dan & Aranza

Though I did not get to meet Paul, he was responsive and connected me to his wife, Donna. Donna met me and quickly made me feel at home. The place was clean, private and accommodating, close enough to downtown New Haven, yet just far enough away from congestion. A short stroll from the house is the river...a very nice walk on an autumn day. Fresh fruit, juice tea and coffee were available. Great place!!!

Paul and his family were incredible hosts. He was incredible. He was flexible with our arrival and flexible with our departure. We ended up changing our entire itinerary based on our stay and our trip turned out becoming amazing. He educated us on the fact that we were staying in an old oyster house. His room was incredibly comfortable. He accommodated our desire for coffee and made us incredible home sprung eggs from his backyard chickens. His backyard was a wonderland and his family was so friendly. We even were able to borrow the canoe and go out on the river that is just a few houses down. The neighborhood is great and this stay made a very comfortable and loving impression on me and my girlfriend. Anyone would be lucky to stay here.

Paul and his wife were wonderful hosts. The room was clean and they supplied everything that I could have needed during my stay. Unfortunately I didn't get to interact with Paul first hand but meeting his wife was lovely. I would surely stay again if I ever find myself in New Haven.

Pleasant and easy stay

Such a lovely place direct by the water. Peggy and her husband are perfect hosts. They recommended so many good places. The room and the bathroom are very clean. Watched the sunrise from our bed. Definitely worth a stay. We would come back.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay with Peggy. The room was clean and comfortable and it was nice to have our own private bathroom. It was pleasant to fall asleep listening to the waves. Peggy was very friendly and we enjoyed a light breakfast with her before heading off to run the Branford Father's Day race.

Our best airbnb experience so far! Peggy was a wonderful host, very friendly and helpful. The house and the room is very cozy and you feel at home right away. The view is amazing and the place peaceful and calm.

Peggy is a kind and welcoming host, and her home is in a perfect location right across the street from the bay. A great place to stay for a weekend on the CT coast

Peggy is a very warm and friendly host whom one would appreciate especially after being caught in heavy traffic and long hour drive. The sunrise view from the room is one of a kind, be sure not to miss it! Its a must!

Peggy was a wonderful host and made us feel very welcome in her home, which is beautiful and in a quiet, scenic neighborhood. The view from the room can't be beat, it's extremely close to the water. Everything was clean and as described. We were pleasantly surprised to wake up to coffee, pastries and fruit the next morning! I would stay here again in a heartbeat.

Peggy and her husband made us feel very welcome by greeting us upon our arrival. We were not sure of the exact time we would arrive, but Peggy was very flexible. There was everything we needed to make our stay comfortable.

Rob was very welcoming! The food was great and it was a very convenient location. Very impressed with the cleanliness!

Lovely place to stay. Very clean (spotless!) and recently renovated. We enjoyed our stay very much.

I had a great stay at Rob's house while visiting Branford. The house is very clean, and recently updated with modern amenities (the room I stayed in, the kitchen, and the bathroom were all beautiful). I enjoyed my stay and will book again when I am visiting the area!

Our experience with Rob was fantastic through and through. While I did not have the pleasure of personally meeting him, my father felt completely at home with Rob hosting. It was the epitome of an ideal Airbnb trip, complete with breakfast, and we would strongly consider booking this room again! Thanks for everything.

Hotel room for an airbnb price. The room and the bathroom are spotless. The bedroom is super comfortable and spacious. Linens are fresh. Wifi works flawlessly. You will use your private bathroom right next to the room with brand new sink, bathtub and toilet. Rob even provided clean towel and shampoo/conditioner for you. He even put chocolates and water in your room to welcome you. Parking is in the lot in front of the house so you will never have to scramble for street parking. I slept through the night so soundly, since it is such a quiet and safe neighborhood. Rob is such a great host and kept asking if I need anything else. Overall I cannot ask for a better experience than this, I felt like I was staying in a hotel instead of airbnb. If I come back to the area, I would come back and stay with Rob again. Wholeheartedly recommend this room! :)

The entire home was very clean, even for a neat freak like me. The bathroom was spotless. The bed was really comfortable and I got a great night's sleep. I was worried it might be noisy since there is so much down the street, but it was actually very quiet. The room also had usb charging ports by the nightstand which was useful. My favorite part was the keypad lock on front door. It made my life much easier. Rob was a great host, although I can't say we spent much time together. He was very friendly. I enjoyed staying here.

I stayed 2 nights in Rob's home. The house is so convient to Branford town center and New Haven. Rob is a very welcoming host and the room was very comfortable, spotlessly clean and nicely decorated. As a female who traveled alone on this particular trip, I felt very comfortable and I have no hesitation in recommending Rob as a host and his home is lovely.

You won't regret staying here. Rob's place is charming, bright, and clean, clean, clean. You'll love the spacious bathroom and all the provided essentials. He really deserves the title of super host--he's thought of everything a traveler needs. We loved the bedside USB ports and the excellent wifi. And he gave us a great restaurant recommendation. We loved The Stand so much we went two nights in a row.

Roberts is a wonderful host. His home is like a zen retreat. All the essentials and no destraction. His backyard is a wildlife sanctuary in the marshes. We loved the laid back cottage feel within walking distance to the beach, yet everything was clean, redone and in working order. We were so comfortable , I would highly recommend. This is not 5 ️... it's comfortable in a casual sense.

Beautiful property! Fabulous easy quiet location. Neighborhood was beautiful and quiet. Area has lots to offer. Bob was great to communicate with and we had a great time

Robert was very hospitable! Communication was easy, and house was as described. Great location! Would definitely rent again!

Bob was great! Better than advertised and flexible with check-in and departure. Couldn't have asked for a better experience. Also, the neighbors were great as well! We watched early July 4th fireworks with them and that experience added to the overall stay. Thanks again, Bob!

A great place to stay! Branford cottage was centrally located and convenient for visiting New Haven to the west and Hammonasset Beach and other locations to the east. A local beach and restaurants are within easy walking distance and the Branford Trolley Trail is a few minutes' drive away - great for walking and early morning birding. Neighbors were friendly, and the cottage was clean and well-equipped. Bob was quick to respond to messages - a great host. Check in and check out were a snap. We would definitely rent from him again.

Robert's place is a sweet little cottage within walking distance to the beach. It's very clean, which I loved and the clever use of space allows plenty of room for clothes, etc. Thoughtful amenities and a great little deck overlooking the marsh lands was a perfect, peaceful retreat for morning coffee and afternoon cocktails. Robert is a great host and very quick to help with any questions or concerns. This was such a great find and definitely worth a return visit!!

Robert was a great host. The cabin was clean and you can't beat the location, absolutely beautiful. I will definitely stay there the next time I travel.

This was a charming beach getaway! Quick hop to a quiet private beach, dog friendly, beautiful view from the yard. Bob was a friendly, fabulous host and even picked fresh flowers to welcome us! We will definitely be coming back!
