Direct waterfront cottage on private sandy beach
YOU ARE ON THE BEACH! Step off the porch right onto pristine white sand. This hidden gem is on a dead end street and has everything you need for a relaxing summer get-a-way. There are 2 bedroom and a loft. Open floor plan and covered porch. Beach chairs, umbrella and kayaks. Sleeps 4 to 6 (grown children would be appropriate for the loft space). Tweed Airport is just minutes away, take the train into Union station, New Haven less than 15 minutes away. We beleive dining outdoors is the porch but if you want to venture out there is an abundance of things to do and see on the CT Shoreline and great night life downtown New Haven.
During your stay at this cottage, you're just a quick walk from West Silver Sands Beach. Free WiFi and a kitchen are available in the cottage.

Beautiful!
Lori was fantastic and clearly/accurately described property and access. The cottage was perfect for our family of 5! Neighbors were super friendly and the beach was quiet and clean. Perfect for a relaxing getaway!
This beach cottage is right on a private beach! It is truly a hidden gem! The cottage is so cute and it has everything you need including linens, beach and bath towels, gas grill, kayaks, beach chairs and loungers. Great porch to sit and read or have your morning coffee. The beach has soft sand, beautiful shells, some rocks and we even found some sea glass. Close to dining, shops and an airport. Host was super nice and answered any questions we had. Neighbors are friendly. We really enjoyed our stay there and we look forward to staying there again.

Fantastic!
This place was EXACTLY as advertised!! Easy to find, with clear entry instructions. IMMACULATELY cleaned and stocked with easy to find instructions. The beach is right at your doorstep! The house is a brilliant use of space, small, but not cramped. Linens were fresh and clean and plentiful! This was a gem of a place!!

Loved being directly on the Beach
Two steps down to the sand. Air traffic has increased since the last time we rented, but they space it out. Most of the day is quiet. Accommodations were wonderful. I hope to own something like this someday!
