We had a wonderful stay in Rowayton. The cottage is so cute, comfy and in a great location. Walking distance to town - great parks, restaurant and market…. lots of amenities. Heather was super helpful and responsive. 5 stars across the board!

Every details attended
We weren't even there in the great weather super kid friendly property bikes in great condition helmets etc such a fun stay
We know the area and were 💯 satisfied even tho it was expensive
Very good location. We were only a short ride to our family. I enjoyed the farmer’s market on Friday! The stay was a little to short but very enjoyable.
Experience the best cottage in downtown Rowayton! Super clean cottage with a helpful property manager that is walkable to everything in Rowayton. We can’t wait to come back- you will love this cottage.
Such a cute cottage with a lot to offer within walking distance! This was the perfect setup for a weekend getaway. Everything was clean and all instructions were very clear. Heather is a great communicator and makes the experience stress free.
This was a truly charming cottage in which to enjoy a special family celebration. It was very "beachy" without being fussy. Communication with the owner was easy and prompt. We hope to stay again!
Heather's home is beautifully decorated and maintained. It has a lovely beach cottage feel and was immaculate. We felt very at home in this lovely cottage and enjoyed the proximity to Rowayton's charming village. It was just a quick walk to the local grocery market, restaurants and stores.
Heather's house was stocked with everything you would need in terms of kitchenware, beach towels, bath towels, toys for children, family games, bicycles and scooters. Heather was very easy to communicate with and she left clear instructions for anything that you might have questions about.
Overall, it was a wonderful stay and we hope to return to Heather's cottage and Rowayton again.

Magical Rowayton Cottage
We have spent multiple weeks the past 3 summers in the wonderful home. It is absolutely immaculate and charming in every way. It has everything you need to relax and enjoy a home away from home. It is walking distance to the village for restaurants and shops as well as close access to the train and highway. The owner is amazingly responsive and a lovely person. We feel so lucky to be able to share this lovely home while visiting CT in the summertime. We look forward to many more summers.

Visiting from London
While we live in London now we wanted to come back to CT to visit family and friends. We found this adorable cottage on VRBO and were thrilled with all it had to offer. First, Rowayton is fabulous. With a short walk to the village and beach it offers a very relaxed, beach-side community feel. There are many wonderful restaurants in town and a convenient grocery store. The cottage allowed our family to enjoy our return in comfort and style. It was clean, comfortable, and charming. Every amenity was available. We had our friends come for cocktails one evening and then we all walked over to one of favorite restaurants. They actually didn't want to leave the cottage! The owner was so helpful and available for all inquires. Fresh cut flowers were displayed in the house! It was a real homecoming for us. We would highly recommend this beach bungalow for families visiting Rowayton.

Summer Visit
Stayed at this property while visiting family in CT. Spent a week with my 2 children and had a wonderful time. The house is small but very cozy with all of the amenitites. Also conveniently located within walking distance to Rowayton Town Center and a short drive to Braylee beach. Also close to I95. Landlords very accessible for any questions and house was very clean upon our arrival. We will come back again.

Charming Rowayton Cottage
Great little cottage with lots of charm. Puts you instantly into the beach feel. Kids loved the long drive to play in, which is off the main road. Loved the cucumbers and tomatoes that were in her garden. Close to everything and so great to be in Rowayton. LOVED IT!
