Relaxing

Charming house in a great location. My friend and I wanted an escape from NYC and found it here. We were able to enjoy a few of the restaurants in the area during our stay as well as the local farmers market and a quick trip to Mystic. Overall we truly enjoyed our stay and the host was very assessable to answer any and all of our questions. I would recommend to anyone looking for a getaway.
