Perfect for us
I grew up spending summers in the East Haven/Branford area. As an adult my husband and I started renting cottages in the area. We have stayed in many different sized houses but this year it was just the two of us. It was a welcome break after a year of covid. Neil’s cottage fit us perfectly. We fell in love with it. The cottage is cute and quirky. Nicely decorated. Comfortable beds and the kitchen had all we needed. Perfect location close to Lenny’s restaurant and Bud’s for fish or his crab spread which I highly recommend. The porch is a perfect spot for eating or just sitting. The day bed was my favorite lounging spot. The neighborhood people were very friendly and most importantly the beach is steps away. We hope to return again and again. Thx Neil!

Picture perfect Summer Island
One of the best shore spots on the Ct. Sound -great for young and older for water fun including a row over to Clam Island to scout for sea glass. As an artist I found lots of inspiration for future paintings. Cottage well equipped. Friendly neighbor-hood. Thankyou Neil for sharing your cottaged.

Relaxing haven
This is the 3rd time we’ve stayed at Neil’s cottage. It is such a lovely, relaxing spot, just steps from a private beach, and the cottage is decorated with so many beautiful little touches. Everything is very comfortable. Neil is such a welcoming and helpful host!! We can’t wait to stay again next summer!

Perfect week!
My sister and I along with our husbands just spent a week in the beach cottage. Everything was perfect. We enjoyed the close proximity to the beach. We were able to kayak right across the street from the cottage. The neighborhood was lovely with several restaurants close by. We will definitely return next year. Thanks!
