This property had everything from a super clean, cozy studio with fridge and counters filled with surprising treats, incredible hot tub with lights in the trees, pool to cool off and little private beach to launch a paddlleboard and kayak, or hang out at night with a burn pit. If you are just a beach person and want toes in the sand and to swim in the ocean, this area is not for you. Otherwise...it is perfect for 2 people. ##### Nichole R.

My wife and I had an amazing stay at the Church’s guesthouse. The backyard is gorgeous and offers many options: Boating in the bay, two firepits, pool, hot tub, corn hole, numerous lounge chairs… The guesthouse is modern and well-stocked. The walls facing the backyard and bay are floor to ceiling glass doors that offer a great panoramic view. It also has a nice little porch where we ate our meals with the great view. If you have any hesitation about staying on someone elses property, don’t. Adam and Liz were incredibly warm and gracious hosts. As Adam put it, he wanted us to think of it as a five-star resort: and we did. Beyond the amenities above they were really detail oriented on making our stay amazing. They offered suggestions of places for activities and food, made sure the tiki torches had enough fuel, gave us their fishing rods, stocking the fridge, helped make the bonfire, etc… They were available if there was anything we needed without hesitation. If you are looking for a great and relaxing getaway it’s a must stay! ##### Jonathan K. Stayed 3 nights in Jun 2020 ### 8/10 Good #### Irene K D. Jun 4, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Best gift We Ever Received I booked this amazing, fabulous, beautiful studio for my son and his wife for their anniversary. I wanted to give them a getaway that they would never forget. This lived up to everything that they ever imaged. First they couldn’t say enough about Lizbeth and Adam. My son said what first class hosts they were and couldn’t believe the extras they had for them. Everything was not only perfect but just added to their dreamy getaway. My son and daughter in law traveled to the neighborhood towns and again said the winery and the eateries were excellent. Having the beach and hot tub added to the magic.They are definitely returning next year. - My son’s final words were he had to keep reminding himself that he was still in Connecticut. If you have any doubt-don't -This is the wisest choice. ##### Irene K D. Stayed 2 nights in Jun 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Geoffrey T. Jul 3, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Amazing Dog Friendly Anniversary Stay Stayed for our anniversary as we wanted a spot we could enjoy with our pug, this was the perfect choice. It’s rare to feel you are enjoying your surroundings even when in the comforts of air conditioning but that was the case here with panoramic views of the beach, cove and yard. The space had everything we need plus cute touches which made it feel like a vacation home. Our hosts even included a multitude of snacks/drinks which meant we didn’t need to search for coffee/breakfast each morning plus enjoyed celebratory snacks, drinks and smores! The highlight for us was the neighborhood saltwater swimming area which included a diving board beach which felt completely unique. There are plenty of restaurants nearby to enjoy (including some of the best pizza in the world in New Haven), though we minimized how much we left as didn’t want to miss much time enjoying all the property and neighborhood had to offer. The heated saltwater pool, hot tub, yard games and firepits kept us from ever feeling bored, plus having the option to kayak and paddleboard meant that we didn’t even get to everything we wanted to do when visiting for our 4 nights. Adam showed us around the property upon check in and made us feel like we could make ourselves at home. Watch out for bugs when outside in evening, torches provided and bring bug spray. We have stayed in many waterfront property rentals throughout New England and this one has quickly moved to the top of our list and one we plan to return to again! ##### Geoffrey T.

Adam and Lizbeth tended to all of our needs, whether it was recommending places to eat or checking in to see if we needed anything. The cottage had everything we needed and even included some snacks and drinks which were greatly appreciated. They really thought of everything.The property is absolutely beautiful. The private beach and pool were a mini paradise! You will love your stay here. ##### Christina P.
