Nice house, pictures accurate, clean and tidy!!
Nice house, pictures accurate, clean and tidy! Overall it was a nice stay but there are some updates that could be used, like more basic kitchen items and new beds. Not a ton of silverware or cereal bowls to use so we ended up buying paper and plastic for the week. The AC worked great, beautiful view of the water from the living room and porch area. Small gas bbq on the porch was nice for a few homemade dinners. However, there wasn’t much of a yard. We had brought some kiddie games and outdoor things to do but really had nowhere to do them. There are a couple of private beach options, the furthest one is the largest if you have a bigger group. All walkable even with little kids. The smaller beaches don’t fit more than 1-2 groups and also looked pretty rocky when tide was low, so we didn’t use them. Only 2-3 other families were at the larger beach with us at a time, it was usually pretty empty except for us, which was really nice! Ice cream truck comes by every day at different times - the lady was so friendly and prices were low; this was a highlight for our kids! Parking was tricky for large SUVs, and there’s only room for 2 cars maximum. Strict no street parking allowed in the neighborhood, so there’s no wiggle room for a 3rd car. We had to have our friends park at the Big Y grocery store (4 min drive) and carpool them back to the house when they came over for the afternoon. Luckily no issues at the Big Y with our car. Not sure what we would have done if we had more than 2 cars that needed to stay overnight. We also blew a fuse the second day when we ran the dryer and the dishwasher at the same time; thankfully the owner was quick to respond and walked us through instructions on finding the fuse box. No issues after that because we were careful not to turn on too many things at once. The lighting in the bathrooms were very dim, difficult to see in the shower with the curtain closed. Wonderful shopping, restaurants and mini golf.. all of which were great in Westbrook and neighboring town, Old Saybrook!
