Why our guests

LOVE STAYING HERE

The three of us (2+dog) loved this pristine, beautifully decorated vacation home. It was absolutely perfect, a comfortable home worthy of a spread in "Country Living" magzine. We were there only for a long weekend, and when the weather was not great for one of our days, we were content to "relax at home." The large, completly fenced-in yard was just perfect. Our doodle gives it 5 stars as do we. If we had stayed longer during nice weather, we would have loved to have eaten or just relaxed in such a pretty and private backyard. We were so happy with the location as it was "hidden" away from the road and set back from the houses around it. Along with the fact we could walk to a casual eatery featuring burgers and lobster, the location was another feature that created that perfect vacation feel. I had the pleasure of talking to our host, Ali, who was not only helpful, but also welcoming, warm and friendly. Our entire experience was perfect and definitely worthy of five stars.

We loved Ali and Jim’s adorable little cottage. Beautifully decorated, well-appointed and super clean, with comfortable furnishings and beds. The backyard was private and made for a nice hangout spot one evening. Great location with Fresh Salt restaurant and fantastic little lobster shack just around the corner. We took bike rides around Old SayBrook beaches and downtown, and even ventured out to Old Lyme, Chester (adorable) and Gillette Castle (quirky and interesting!) Ali was great to work with - we were last minute guests and she was very communicative and responsive, and reached out numerous times during our stay to make sure everything was to our liking - which it was! I am going to recommend her place to my family and friends, and hope to be staying there again soon. Thank you, Ali!

Beautiful cottage near the sea. Old Saybrook is my old hometown so it was wonderful to drive down from New Hampshire and spend a few nights for my birthday and go to our favorite restaurants. Thank you making The Driftwood available for us and our two dogs. They appreciated the fenced in yard. :)

This was truly an absolutely lovely experience overall: the hosts were responsive, and the precious cottage was immaculate, roomy, and welcoming! We especially appreciated the well-stocked kitchen and how easily they accommodated our dog. If the community were more vegan and dog-friendly, we would return again and again in a heartbeat!
