Lovely home in a quiet neighborhood
Exactly as described and clean. Beautiful fenced in backyard with plenty of shade provided by some very old trees. Nice large back deck with table and chairs. Great house if you have kids or dogs. Close to everything, right off Rt. 1.

Perfect place for our family
Our family needed a house to stay in near Haddam Connecticut for a friend’s wedding. Rosemary’s house in Old Saybrook was the perfect place. We loved the area and quaint town near 95 and the beach. The house was clean and she provided all the amenities needed to feel like home. Our twin grandkids and our dog loved the large fenced in yard. The beds were extremely comfortable. Everything you could possibly need was in the home including toys for the kids. Her communication was awesome and we had a delightful time.

We enjoyed our stay
This home had what we needed. It was easy to find things around the kitchen. The beds were comfortable. The large back yard is fenced-in, so our dog had plenty of space to run around. The location is great for children to play outside because of the family-friendly neighborhood. Easy drive to Mystic Aquarium and other attractions. Recommended.

Loved everything!
Great location and great house. Everything we needed to be comfortable, not a single complaint. Rosemary was a great host. My pups loved the big backyard and playing in The leaves. Rosemary even had even put a water bowl down for them. It is wise I think for hosts to realize that it is often our pets comfort that leads us to seek out homes with yards as opposed to hotels. Thank you for your thoughtfulness :)

September trip to shore
This was a beautiful place to stay! Well stocked kitchen, lovely fenced in yard with a deck. Great view of the yard though the sliding doors in the living room. The beds were comfortable. The neighborhood was quiet and a relaxing place to walk my dog. There's lots of places to eat in Old Saybrook and surrounding towns and there's a large grocery store in town. We stopped in at the Kate Hepburn museum on Main Street. We really enjoyed our stay!

Family Holiday
Perfect! We stayed the week of Christmas with our 2 dogs. The open living/ dining/ kitchen was great for hosting a holiday meal and the kitchen has everything you need to do so. My pups loved the fenced in yard. The neighborhood is quiet and walkable yet close to everything. We all had a fantastic stay.

A little bit of heaven for a week
We so enjoyed our week at your home. The neighborhood was fantastic-made us feel like neighbors immediately. The house was immaculate and far, far better than the pictures showed. Our little girl (Hanna, the dog) absolutely loved the backyard and not having to be tied up. If you are thinking of renting this home, do not hesitate-- I am VERY fussy, and I guarantee you will not be disappointed in any way.

Wonderful, very comfortable, and clean property. Even better than pictures and descriptions listed. Everything was provided. Loved the backyard to sit outside with our coffee and the gas firepit at night. Great area with lots of stores/restaurants nearby. We would like to definitely make this at least a yearly thing!

Wonderful House in Peaceful Setting
My husband and I thoroughly enjoyed our stay in this immaculately clean, comfortable house, which was equipped with everything we could possibly need. The location is convenient to restaurants, stores and beaches, but is in a quiet neighborhood and has a beautiful, private backyard. The owner, Rosemary, was very helpful and easy to reach with any questions. We definitely hope to come back!
