We stayed here during a family vacation. It is in a good location for many places. We visited lizzie borden's house, the newport mansions, and spent some time in mystic ct. The house is small but it filled all our needs. There are many cooking appliances and it is well stocked. The backyard was great for our dogs and the neighborhood was quiet. We did notice some small gaps in the fence which might be a problem for smaller dogs. The water heater settings were very high and could be painful if not careful. Kellie was a good host and helped us with our needs. We enjoyed our stay.
