We booked this home for a family wedding nearby. The host was great to work with- very responsive and helpful with clear instructions; check-in and out was easy. We had small children with us- a toddler/baby and the toys and amenities for small kids were amazing! We were a bit disappointed that there wasn't more to do in the surrounding area.

Great Stay!

We were in New Haven for a Yale graduation and this home was a big win! We were only 12 minutes from campus and it was great to come back to a clean and spacious home to relax. The house is just as it’s pictured and Chris was excellent to rent from. We would definitely recommend for groups staying in New Haven!

Home away from home. Perfect for family get together.

Excellent experience. Chris was an awesome host: informative, responsive, and very pleasant to deal with. House is spacious, meticulous, and has all the amenities of a typical home. We were very comfortable with 5 adults and 2 children. Kids (7 & 9) loved the huge 3rd floor bedroom/playroom with oversized bunk beds and lots of toys. Close to I-95, Yale University, Tweed airport but tucked away in a quiet neighborhood.

This property was perfect for a multi-generational family reunion. The open and comfortable layout was ideal for group meals and after dinner games. The location is amazing. Walks to the Lighthouse was a daily occurrence and easy access to grocery stores. Very convenient to New Haven (5 miles) but quickly out of the 91/95 traffic. Chris is a great host.
