july vacation

The property was terrific the only thing I didn't like we had a (10) guests staying there and there was only (8) dinner plates and (8) dinner forks that makes it difficult to eat together also there was only (9) chairs inside for eating as well . The house was clean and the floor plan was amazing looking forward to staying again

The Perfect Seaside Vacation

The house has it all! It was spotlessly clean, comfortably furnished, and the location is fantastic. We were all in heaven, sitting on the deck, swimming at high tide, and exploring the sand bars and tide pools at low tide. Perfect for our multi-generational family that includes small children. We walked on the beach, played in the sand, and sat on the deck morning and evening. Check in was easy and the hosts responded quickly to our inquiries. Only quibble: the kitchen could use more plates, coffee mugs and glassware. Other than that, it was perfect in every way. We'd love to return.

Location location location

3 generations enjoyed everything about the beach house ! The house having 5 bedrooms and three bathrooms gave us plenty of room for the 10 of us . The house has a wonderful porch off the back with an enclosed portion so you can be out of the sun and rain if need be ! Four of the bedrooms have balconies , two over look the water. It will always be a treasured memory !

Enjoyable stay right on the beach!

The cottage is clean and spacious. Roseanne is the agent/owner who is easy to work with and she responded very quickly to a few minor problems that arose during our stay. I think the best I can say is that we've booked the same weeks for 2018!

Ted S., Fairfield, CT

Great location, plenty of space, lacking bare necessities.

The house is renovated due to Sandy and the outdoor deck is large leading directly to the beach which is great. The host Roseanne is nice and mostly helpful but gave misinformation right off the bat... Was nice to be able to check in a few hours early because no one had it booked before us, thank you again for that. However, one of the first things I checked was that there was propane for the grill. There was an empty tank next to the grill and when I asked about getting more Roseanne tried to say that was my responsibility to get more and cover the cost. Absolutely not, the rental details says it comes with the grill -- that should include the propane too! She called the owner (her family member) and they agreed to reimburse the cost. Second, NOTE: there's a massive storage unit taking up two car spots in the driveway. She told me they were going to be having it removed that afternoon. That would've been nice especially since I had a number of people driving in for a birthday surprise party. 5pm rolls around and the unit was still there. Two unanswered calls and a couple unanswered texts to Roseanne later and i get a call from George Ganim's office explaining the unit isn't going anywhere because that's where the owners keep their own furniture for the house. It would have been nice to know when booking the rental and also not be misinformed that it would be moved. Playing car Tetris all weekend wasn't the most enjoyable experience. Once in the house things were clean and there was a ton of space. All 5 bedrooms are well sized. They do not supply any soap, shampoo/conditioner or extra toilet paper other than the half rolls already on the holder. They do supply enough towels for 8-10 people, however, so that was nice. There is an outdoor shower but when we turned it on it started leaking under the siding of the house and into the interior of the house. They may not have winterized the pipes. Upon inspection inside we found black mold on the walls next to the plumbing. Roseanne sent over their handyman who couldn't come and fix it until two days later and he didn't come until dinner time. Rather than ruin our dinner experience I told him to come back later that week after we left since we were checking out a day early anyway. Would've been a nice feature to use during our stay, however. Overall the house serves it's purpose well for hosting larger groups but it's clear the owners are trying to maximize profit via cost cutting.

About the host

Hosted by Roseanne Ganim

Host profile image
It was 1967 and we were looking for a place to rent for a few weeks at the beach with our 8 children. We came across this house on Fairfield Beach with 7 bedrooms, a large kitchen, dining room and living room. Built in 1902 and known as the Ivy Inn, a retreat for New Yorkers' for the cool breezes and cool waters of Long Island Sound. By 1967 the 10 room Inn had been converted to a year round use that included off season rental to Fairfield University students. A practice that continues until today allowing the property to be availible for summer rentals June 1st to August 31st. Off course we thought it was made for us. We spent the next 35 summers having a wonderful time on the beach with our eight children. It was our Paradise. A great place to spend our summers.

Why they chose this property

A Beautiful private beachfront property. Swimming and a sandy beach steps from your door. View the lighthouse and Long Island Sound, from your the first floor level and beach side bedrooms.
Grill your meals on the over- sized beach side deck while watching the waves crash the shore. Walk the shoreline and catch the breeze and surf at your feet. See the
seagulls fish at low tide and look for shells. Fishing can be done off the rock jetty.

What makes this property unique

A Gentle surf. Very private. No public access to the beach.
Jetty yards away for marine exploration. Great restaurants, shopping, grocery store 2 miles away, metro-north nearby, close to Interstate 95, off street parking for 6 or more cars.
