READ TO END. IMPORTANT NOTES AT BOTTOM OF DESCRIPTION (including official cancellation policy)

Welcome to my beautiful Seaside Retreat on the Long Island Sound in Westbrook, CT. There is so much to do and see here besides my beautiful home. Outlet shopping, movies, golf, boating, dining, under an hour ride to Mohegan Sun and Foxwood Casinos, The Goodspeed Opera House in East Haddam, The Kate Theater in Old Saybrook, and much more! Easily accessible from Rte. 1, Rte. 9, I-95 & I-91 and Amtrak, Westbrook is a beautiful, quaint Seaside New England Town steeped in history and local culture.

Enter the main floor which is up a full flight of stairs and you will find a full bath, coat closet and laundry room area before the entire floor opens up to a sunny, beautiful living space. This main living area features a beautiful custom kitchen with granite counters, stainless appliances that include a large fridge with ice & water in the door, microwave, gas range with pot filler water spigot, range hood, dishwasher and over-sized farm sink. You will find everything you need from the Keurig machine, drip coffee maker, toaster oven, pots & pans, dishes, utensils and more. If you love to cook, even while on vacation, this is a kitchen you will love especially the views you can enjoy while cooking! The dining table with banquette seating plus chairs gives you room to dine, when the weather is cooler, because in the warm weather you will want to eat every meal on the spacious deck overlooking the water or enjoy the picnic table on the waterside patio. You can grill on the deck too with the convenient gas grill (no tanks to refill!). The deck and stair surfaces are a composite non-splintering material that looks like wood. Bare feet welcome! The huge patio has lots of space for soaking up the sun with lounge chairs and a hammock and steps right into Long Island Sound! Back inside the living room with cozy sectional couch, recliner and wall mounted flat screen t.v., xFinity cable and high speed internet will meet all your technology demands. However with a view like this, you may never reach for the remote.

Upstairs you will find a very large full bath with shower/tub combo, tile floors and double vanity. The linen closet includes all the linens you will need with an extra set of sheets for each bed in the bedroom closets and an abundance of towels. There are three bedrooms here, one with a single bed and single roll out trundle bed, one with a double bed and spectacular views plus flat screen tv and the Gorgeous Master Bedroom is beautiful! Vaulted ceiling, wood floors, king size bed, wall mount t.v. and best of all - slider door to a private balcony deck. Stunning!

This is the vacation home you’ve been seeking for a restful and rejuvenating escape. Enjoy all the comforts of home while enjoying a restful vacation.

I hope you enjoy your stay at my Seaside Retreat. Please share it with friends, family and co-workers.

A joy to stay here
I had a mini vacation with my daughter. The house is perfect! Although we did not cook while there, if we wanted to, the kitchen was fully equipped. Everything has been considered to make guests comfortable - right down labels on light switches to let you know what turns on! The location is great and it’s hard to beat waking up in the morning to see the sun rise over the ocean. I hope to return at some time in the future.

Awesome House and Location
We loved staying at this property a few houses down from Westbrook Town Beach. The house is right on the ocean with a huge patio in the back, ideal for fishing and relaxing. The master suite was really nice, with unobstructed ocean views. The Host, Steve was great.

Holiday Beach House
Beautiful house right on the water. The view from the bedrooms makes you feel like you're on a ship looking out onto the water, absolutely stunning. Nice neighborhood, very quiet off-season. Thank you for opening up your home to my family for the holidays!

Weekend to relax
Just a few friends enjoying a relaxing weekend away. We spend most of our time crafting but we truly soak in glorious sunrise, the soothing sight and sound of the water lapping and the wonderful amenities of the home for meals cooked in. Warmish days beckon us out to the deck and to the beach for walks. Highly recommend this lovely home and pleasant stay.

Wonderful weekend in Westbrook
What an amazing find. Directly on the water, beautiful sunsets and sunrises. The beds were comfortable, kitchen well equipped. Steve was very easy to communicate with and was very accommodating. We came for a girls weekend and we have all been raving about this house since we left.

great weekend getaway
We went for a long weekend, just to get away without traveling a long distance. We wanted to be by the ocean, This house is right on the ocean so we fell asleep to the sounds of the waves lapping up (sometimes crashing up) against the seawall. We watched the sunrise each morning from the deck. The house was so well appointed, we were able to cook almost all of our meals there. We were a bit off season so it was very quiet in the neighborhood. We spent one afternoon in Chester which was a short drive away and has some nice shops and extremely friendly residents. Another day, we drove the short distance to the Clinton Outlets for a bit of shopping. One day was mostly stormy but we loved watching the activity of the ocean. I would most definitely return to the house, even in winter for another rejuvenating weekend.

Cottage is directly on the water…everything is new and very clean…it was off season, so you can walk a few steps to Westbrook Town Beach. Great location for beach, shopping, restaurants and golf and also a good walking neighborhood.

I rented with my parents and brought my two kids (age 4 and 7). It was the perfect location at low tide to explore the sea life and enjoy the water and to fish at high tide. So relaxing. Definitely would book again!

relaxing view and quiet neighborhood
We spent a week here with family visiting us for a day trip. Rooms are light and airy. My husband is disabled with a brain injury and found the pocket doors a problem. He kept locking himself in or out of the room. stairs up to front door and inside were a struggle for us. Better for younger folks.
