Wonderful Beach Home
Our family enjoyed a relaxing and restorative beach vacation right before the start of the school year. We were able to spend time with local friends and nearby family for meals and visits. The kids spent all day building sand castles and riding the attached rafts during the change of the tides. This is a magical place.

lots of space (indoors and out), great beach
We were looking for a house that had lots of space for a family gathering and a bedroom/bathroom on the ground floor for our eldest generation. This house had both those things, which is rare in Milford Beach rental properties I have seen.
The owner was very responsive to all our communications and provided everything advertised in the listing. The house has the needed household essentials. There's lots of sitting area inside, a large screened porch, and large outdoor deck. Great for gathering everyone. We also appreciated the abundant parking...I think we were able to accommodate 5 cars on the property, and there was usually nearby street parking as well.
A couple of things to keep in mind: there are 2-3 steps from the main floor to the 1st floor bedroom. My parents were able to navigate it, but seriously mobility-challenged people may struggle.
Also, while most rooms have A/C units, a couple don't. We were very glad that on a very hot day in August, we were able to run all the A/Cs without any power issues.

Family Holiday
This house was just what we needed for family to gather to celebrate the holidays. The kitchen supplied everything needed to have 12 people for a seated meal. The owner was very available and helpful as well. Would love to enjoy it again in a warmer, beach-friendly season.

Wonderful
We just returned from a lovely post-Christmas stay in Milford. The house was stunning and just a quick walk to lovely Laurel Beach. The kitchen was well-appointed with enough room to prepare meals and entertain. The house has an amazing layout that allowed us to spread out. Both bathrooms are recently updated, as is the kitchen. We can’t wait to come back during the summer to enjoy the porches and the ocean view. Brad was easy to reach and very pleasant to work with throughout the days leading up to our stay. I would highly recommend this beautiful beach house.

Old Fashioned summer
This house is for people who truly appreciate summer in New England. Don't pass up the opportunity to experience a vacation that will take you back in time to the lazy days...but you still get a gigantic, huge flat screen TV to watch Jaws on with all your friends!

Beautiful house by the beach
This house was amazing and provided everything we needed during our stay. It's a very short walk down to the beach, which is beautiful. The beds were comfortable and it was close to everything. The reason I gave 4 stars is because of a strong mildew like smell in the downstairs bedroom/ bathroom. Other than that the house was perfect.

Perfect match for our family, loved the beach, plenty of room
This is a large old colonial house just steps from the beach. The owner has done a good job in updating, but house is over 100 years old and there will always be some minor repairs or adjustments needed. The AC in one of the bedrooms broke, I bought and installed a new one, and owner immediately thanked me and brought a check over to reimburse me. Colorful guy, great attitude.
