Relaxing vacay on the water
By far the cleanest VRBO I have stayed at. We loved the location and sitting on the from porch. It was very quiet and relaxing and will definitely stay here again next time we visit CT. Stacy was very prompt in answering my questions to make sure all I had to do was relax and enjoy! :) Thanks for sharing your home with us!

Relaxing Oasis
The perfect getaway house! It was right on the water, literally steps from the beach. Gorgeous views from most windows. We fell asleep listening to the waves...absoulte heaven. The house was pristine and clean. Books and games galore. I really liked the sunroom off the main bedroom. The perfect place to read and unwind! We cannot wait to return to this beautiful house in the future!

Stacy is a class act! Great service and immediate access for questions or needs. The space is exactly as posted…a charming beachside home with all the amenities needed for a wonderful stay. We loved the private beach and enjoyed coffee on the covered patio in the mornings. Thank you again for this stay!

Happy Thanksgiving!
This property was perfect for our Thanksgiving with our son and his fiancé who live in New Haven. House is nicely located and was comfortable for the whole family. The view is spectacular! We already plan to come back next summer to really enjoy the beach.

Bliss at the beach
We enjoyed a perfect three days at the beach! Came with three friends for a girls trip, and were so happy to find the house neat, well stocked and perfectly situated on the beach with views out every window. Loved spending time on the back porch overlooking the water. Will be back.

Beach Getaway with the Family
Absolutely stunning property that was as on the beach as a property could possibly be. The house was very clean and has all the amenities that could be expected, along with unexpected things like toys and books for my 4 y/o and 6 month old. The fact that I could have a cup of coffee on the back porch and watch my wife and son dig in the sand was such a neat experience. I’ve stayed at “beach places” before, but this was just next level. I had never really thought about Milford as anything more than a more convenient town than New Haven to catch a train to New York, but instead I found a wonderfully cute beach community with lovely restaurants and shops. The trip was a surprise for my wife’s birthday and she (and I) were so impressed with the property, the town and ease of our stay.

IMMACULATE!
My family and I truly enjoyed our week at Stacy’s property. Literally steps from the waters edge, we enjoyed kayaking, bird watching, and the most beautiful New England sunsets. Stacy is a wonderful host and managed our expectations professionally and promptly, leaving no detail out. The home was cozy, well stocked, and we needed for nothing. Stacy also has some awesome neighbors :) We will certainly book again for our next extended stay in CT.

Lovely house, great location
We loved our stay at this beautiful house and enjoyed the private beach and close access to town. The garage was well stocked with everything we needed to enjoy the water, and when we wanted to venture a little further we were able to bike to Silver Sands beach. Clear communication from the owner, with lots of attention to detail which we appreciated. Would definitely recommend and would stay again. Thanks for a great week!

Lovely beach cottage
As a former resident of Melba street, this was the perfect beach cottage to come back to. It felt just like our old cottage on Melba did. It felt like home. The house is stocked with everything you need to enjoy your time on the Sound. There were even boogie biards, toys and books for our 3 toddlers. The year round neighbors on both sides were very welcoming too. We can’t wait to come back again (and hope to stay more than 1 night!)

Beautiful but no outdoor grilling/cooking
The property was beautiful. Very recently renovated and everything looks great and works well. The ONLY reason for 4 stars (and this miss is totally on our end) is because absolutely no outdoor cooking is allowed. This is made clear in the house book/rules and we just missed it. For the week of the 4th of July we are always cooking outside with all the regular things you would normally throw on a grill. It keeps the house cooler, is really convenient (for us) and is a part of a summer week at the beach. If you don't cook out, don't grill, are staying for a short time or staying during the colder months where cooking outside is not a consideration, please consider this a 5-star review.

Fun in the Sun
We spent a sun filled week at Stacey's beautiful home with our two grown daughters and our little grandchildren. Everyone had a wonderful time. Stacy's home is immaculately clean and very comfortably furnished. The views of the water are stunning! Having the beach with such calm waters right outside our door made fun in the sun so effortless for the little ones. And rides in the kayaks were an extra special treat. Stacy was quick to respond to any concern . We look forward to another wonderful stay at Stacy's home by the sea! Ellen and George
