Niantic Paradise
We were in the area to visit our son who is in the Coast Guard, stationed at New London. Lynn's property was ABSOLUTELY PERFECT for our visit. We had plenty of room to spread out and enjoy each other's company. The house was very clean and spacious. We enjoyed learning about the history of the house. The kitchen was perfect for cooking meals and had every pot, dish, utensil we could possibly need for our meals. The house had a very nice washer and dryer if needed. The beds were very comfortable. The "office" had jigsaw puzzles, games and books for all ages to enjoy if so desired. The best part was the view of the Niantic River....BEAUTIFUL. The weather this weekend was not ideal for outside activity but you can sit on the front porch or walk over to the shoreline and be mesmerized by the beauty of the river. We did enjoy a beautiful sunrise on our last morning. Words cannot describe how perfect this property was for our family visit. With Lynn's friendliness and the many wonderful aspects of this house, we will DEFINITELY return.

Perfect Stay
The host, location, and house were great! It's actually located right on the cove with access to the water just steps away. Don't forget to visit the Book Barn in Niantic at its three locations.

Beautiful winter stay with river views
Lynn is a wonderful host. She greeted us when we arrived and had decorated the guest house very nicely for Christmas. The house was very clean and inviting and was well winterized. It was supplied with everything we needed for our stay including a large washer/dryer. The neighborhood was very quiet and the views of the river were beautiful. We would be very happy to stay there again.

Beautiful and Cozy; Lovely Neighborhood; Exceptional Host
Even though it was one of the rainiest weekends we've had over the past two months, the house was so cozy and clean, that we did not mind too much. Lynn was a most gracious and wonderful host. She went out of her way to make us feel comfortable without imposing at all. She has a sneaky talent that way. We wouldn't hesitate booking again, if we ever find ourselves in the area again. Lynn is not only the best host I've ever had the pleasure to meet I would say she is exceptional and one of a kind. A true gem! A lovely, lovely rental that is beautifully maintained. You can see all the care and love poured into the lovely guest cottage.

Perfect place for us to get away and allow our college student some much needed down time. The house is in a quiet and beautiful neighborhood. I had everything we needed, clean and very comfortable. The host, Lynn, is great and was available to answer any questions. Highly recommend.

Beautiful spot, wonderful host
Gorgeous, superclean house in a quiet, picture postcard residential neighborhood. 50 yards from the waterfront with a cute dock and slither of a beach. The house itself had everything we needed and more including thoughtful additions in the kitchen making it easy to make anything without having to buy loads of stuff. The neighbourhood is lovely with shared amenities like a playground and swimming beach which are perfect for kids and the town of Niantic itself is lovely and is within short driving distance of lots of great spots like Mystic and New London / Ocean Beach. We'll hopefully return sometime soon!
