Relaxing weekend at a beautiful and comfortable cottage

I loved staying at the cottage on this property. The entire property is beautiful, well-maintained and in a great location. Not too far from anywhere you'd want to go. I am thinking of booking the cottage at this time next year.

Beautiful spring getaway

My boyfriend and I had a wonderful time returning to our favorite Newtown VRBO. We’ve stayed here before and loved it. The wild turkeys greeted us again each morning, and we enjoyed coffee on the patio taking in the beautiful views. We hope to come back for future visits!

Very well maintained and peaceful.

The cottage is comfortable, clean and although "in the woods" it is about ten minutes from the Metro North rail station in Bethel, CT. From there day tripping to NYC is a breeze.

Excellent getaway without the long trip.

Our family thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this guest house. The property is well-kept, private, quiet, and well equipped (we especially appreciated the screened in porch with the BBQ), and the location is convenient to the many Connecticut attractions. Its a excellent getaway without the long trip. The kids didn’t want to go home—and neither did we!

Perfect rental!

Had the most perfect stay at Janet & Steve’s guest house. Our dog loved the space to run & play in the backyard, and the rental was exactly what we needed for a 4 day stay in Connecticut. The bed is SO comfortable - we had the best sleep we’ve had in months! Thank you, Janet for being the perfect host. We can’t wait to come back again!

Incredibly cozy cottage on a beautiful property. The king size bed is very comfortable. My kids loved running around the yard and the porch doubles the size of the cottage. We live in the area and needed a place to stay for a bit.

Homey Guest Cottage

This was perfect for me and my husband to stay. We came back to Newtown to visit family and friends and the cottage was delightful. The weather was warm enough for us to sit out on the screened in porch and enjoy the afternoon warmth and setting of the sun. Perfect location and perfect proximity to great restaurants. We will definitely return to this gem next year.

Great escape

The weather was so-so through our 5 day stay but it didn’t really matter. We loved the space, the location, the country atmosphere, and that amazing deck. I spent as much time out there as I did inside. The host were very accommodating and great to interact with. I look forward to staying here again!
