Exceptional!
Absolutely beautiful location with a view of the beach through the living room and the master bedroom windows. The owners could not be any nicer! Lesley is lovely, involved, communicative, and available. The beach in steps away from the house and the neighborhood is friendly and warm. Exceptional and highly recommended!

Beautiful view!
Great spot steps from a small beach. The view was beautiful! We were pleasantly surprised with the space and proximity to the beach, and were even able to walk to a restaurant. The house has everything you’d need. The WiFi was spotty and unreliable, but otherwise everything about our stay was amazing and we hope to return!

Right at the beach, and close to everything
We enjoyed our stay and loved the beach and neighborhood. The pictures do not do the location justice. The local people are very friendly, and accommodating. We had everything we needed to enjoy our time there. I would definitely recommend this location and property.

Loved our stay
We SO loved staying here over 4th of July, watching the amazing neighborhood fireworks display, sleeping in every morning, fishing off the rocks. The house was immaculately clean with comfortable beds. The owners were away, so we were able to use the second floor balcony. I think it would have been a bummer if that was off limits, although I would have loved to meet Lesley in person, she does very important work with the elderly. Also note - only one of the bedrooms has an AC.

About the host

Hosted by Joseph Hartman

Host profile image
I grew up in England and came to the US in High School then to Connecticut for Yale where I am now an Associate Fellow. I owned a 25 room Victorian Inn on the shore for 10 years, winning the Governor's Award for service. Hospitality is in my DNA! For the past 20 years I have owned Griswold Home Care and won the CT SBA Business of the Year award after being nominated by US Sen Richard Blumenthal. We have also received awards from the Alzheimer's and Parkinson 's Associations. My partner, Joseph, and I, are a quiet but sociable couple who have enjoyed many relationships with our compatible long-term tenants.

Why they chose this property

I'd lived in New Haven for decades before wanting a second home on the shore (without dealing with the Q Bridge!) Nothing in Connecticut beats the well-known spectacular views combined with the ocean-side walking and friendly Borough of Woodmont within Milford. Located on a point (where we own the land to high water tide) the views are sun up to sunset. Added to that small, good restaurants and a mini-mall are all within waking. Just park your cars and stay. I have an award winning garden on the front of the house with a fountain for dogs on the outside of the fieldstone wall.Outside the kitchen is a grilling deck that wraps around to the patio with seating for six. This is the first time we have made this sought-after 2-storey home available for the summer season.

What makes this property unique

It's the views from the living room and master bedroom that first draw people. The house maintains its original beadboard walls, narrow stairs to the second floor and the yellow leaf pine flooring from the 1880's but the high ceilings are newly sheetrocked with ceiling fans (as well as AC but you may not need it on the water). The kitchen is small but leads to the grilling deck and is fully equipped for year-round living. We even include basic condiments! You'll also enjoy the high quality linens and original artwork.
