Cottage vacation rentals in East Haven

Great spot for a long weekend! Wonderful location close to the beach and local wineries. Richard was a great host offering lots of recommendations and clear instructions for check in and using available amenities.

Our family of five loved staying at Yoka and Val's place. The location is very quiet with a peaceful pond across the street. The house itself is very clean and comfortable with everything you need - towels, soap, shampoo, conditioner, coffee and spices - easily available. The beds were also very comfortable. The best part, of course, was the private hot tub in the back yard. It was set in a canopy for extra privacy and wind protection. We loved it. We would definitely stay here again if in the area.

Wonderful for a peaceful weekend away. The views were beautiful, the space was clean (with amazing climate control), and the hot tub area was very user friendly. I would definitely stay again! Highly recommend the short walk to Chaffinch Island Park to check out the tide pools.

Lil Nauti was perfect for our family. The bedrooms were adequate, with very comfortable beds and plenty of pillows. The wardrobe space and drawers were great as we had a long stay with a lot of baggage! Jason has absolutely everything you could possibly want or need for a stay. The kitchen is really well equipped. Cute cottage and delightful private garden.

My family had a great time my daughters enjoyed kayaking. They fished almost all day every day they were in the lake constantly. we also like that it’s close enough for us to have company for the day and for my daughters to have their friends come and go fishing and kayaking for the day.

Saverio’s place was just as listed. We needed a place to stop and rest for the evening and his place is just what we needed!

My husband and I stayed at the cottage for 3 months and enjoyed our time very much. We were very happy from every perspective: The cottage had all the equipment we needed and wished for. We sometimes used the fireplace and loved the bed/couch. The cottage is perfect to rest and focus. We enjoyed to have so much nature around us. We took a walk in the close park with a lake almost every day. We liked to live at a small farm with dogs, chicken and goose. Debbie and Kirk were always there when we needed them and also made us internationals feel welcome. They explained and helped us proactively e.g. changed regional weather circumstances. We also regularly got eggs from the chicken what was always a nice surprise. Communication/ interactions were always easy and friendly. I recommended my work to plan future stays for assignments in this Airbnb. In our opinion it is better than a hotel: Very comfortable, cozy, close to nature and a special American experience. Thanks a lot Debbie and Kirk

This is a great place to stay. It’s lovely and very conveniently located for the town of guilford and the beach. It’s like staying at a friend’s place, an extremely thoughtful friend who has considered what would make you feel comfortable and welcomed. This is our second stay here and it is one of our favorite air B&B experiences. Jeanne is so considerate and responsive, and has the house perfectly prepared. Stay here if you can.

As always, we love our stay at the cottage. It’s becoming our home away from home when visiting our son. Thanks for all our goodies! Always a great surprise! Have a wonderful Christmas. We’ll see you next year I hope.

My husband and I had a great stay. James and Rose are super helpful hosts. It’s a great place to relax and enjoy nature. Walking distance to a lovely park they recommended with tons of hiking trails and very quiet.

This was the perfect weekend getaway for 3 friends! The house was spotless and the perfect walking distance from the beach, a great coffee shop, and ice cream. Our hosts were so friendly and even let us check in a little early. The kitchen was well stocked for cooking dinners, the TV had all the apps one could need, and we enjoyed playing the board games that were provided. I will definitely be recommending for anyone looking for a quick, restorative trip out of NYC!

We stayed here as we needed a stop over. The house is isolated and the terrace overlooking the river is fully private. We had a great time sitting outside and enjoying the peace. Bonus: it’s walking distance to the nearest beach. Would recommend and stay here again.

We loved it. Redefines “fully stocked” - David’s place had everything we could ask for. The water at high tide was magical. Kayaking, fishing and we found over 100 (literally) hermit crabs.

Eglantine was a very responsive host! She answered immediately with whatever question I had and also very helpful. The binder provided also helped out a ton. There was a slight hiccup with the refrigerator turning off while we were away and we had to throw away some of our perishables because the internal temp of the fridge reach 84 degrees, but Eglantine responded right away when we contacted her about the issue.

Had a great weekend at the cottage! Meredith was so great letting us check in early and was super helpful and responsive. The cottage is gorgeous and has everything you need. Loved it! Thank you!

We had a wonderful stay at the cabin. It was a perfect size for our family and our son had a great time playing in the yard and the playground right next door. Our hosts were super responsive the couple of times we needed something. We'll definitely be back!

We had a lovely time spending the long weekend on Shelter Island. This private bungalow is on a property w other homes, but you still have privacy and feel secluded. The beds were so comfortable and the house was stocked with everything you need for your stay. The host was gracious and very responsive which I really appreciate. We would love to stay here again. It looked just like the photos and was so clean! I also loved the color theme for each room. Thank you again!

This house is absolutely perfect. It's clean, charming, has everything you need. The beautiful back yard has plenty of space and good stuff for kids to play with. Also, it's about a 30 second walk to the beach... neighbors are out on their patch of beach but yours is yours to yourself. It's perfect. We cannot wait to come back.

Our stay at the Lake House Cabin was nothing short of magical! This charming 1940s cabin offered the perfect backdrop for celebrating my wife's birthday with our adult children. The stunning views of the lake were a highlight, providing a serene and picturesque setting that made our family gatherings truly special. We loved the easy access to kayaks and a canoe, which allowed us to explore the water and create lasting memories together. The cabin itself was cozy and well-appointed, making us feel right at home. We appreciated the blend of rustic charm and modern amenities, which made our stay comfortable and enjoyable. If you’re looking for a place to reconnect with family and enjoy nature, I can't recommend this lake house highly enough. We left with full hearts and plans to return!

Raj was a wonderful host, very responsive and provided an awesome stay at his cabin. He’s working on renovating an old motel, and it was very inspiring to see what he’s done. The inside is beautifully renovated and offered a peaceful cozy abode complete with fresh flowers. Would definitely stay again!
