Notes
  • A care-free environment for a good vacation. A quiet environment away from traffic since it is located near the railroad tracks for Amtrak. A few trains go quickly by, but it provides the advantage that few cars drive by. The 15 mile/hour speed limit, combined with the lack of traffic, make it a safe and relaxing place for those with children. If you come, you will probably come back.

10/10 Excellent Stephen P., Sun City, AZ 5 Aug 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy None A week in Old Lyme Michael was a great host for our family get together in Old Lyme Shores. The house was well equipped for all of us to just move in and enjoy ourselves without having to worry about anything. We would definitely come back for a future rental with Michael. Stayed 6 nights in Jul 2019 Response from VrboOwner on 21 Mar 2020 Steve and family were great. They took care of the place and easily adapted to it. We hope they return.

8/10 Good Nancy and Glen E. 26 Jul 2019 Liked: Check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy None Life at the CT shore Roomy house with lots of sleeping possibilities but very close to railroad. Washing machine often took 2-3x the time stayed on the front of the machine. Stayed 86 nights in Apr 2019 Response from VrboOwner on 21 Mar 2020 Glad to have Steve and Family as guests.

The washing machine has an energy saving feature that stretches out the time. I forgot to tell Steve to use Quick wash.

The train is in a gully across the street on the north side of house. With AC on it does not bother must people. Infrequent runs during the week from Amtrak.

10/10 Excellent Colleen R. 31 Dec 2018 None None Very nice! Great location, short walk to the beach, and plenty of room for the whole family! Stayed 4 nights in Dec 2018 Response from VrboOwner on 21 Mar 2020 This is the second year Coleen and her family enjoyed the house. They are great guests and we wish they return next year.
10/10 Excellent Evelyn R., PA, USA 7 Nov 2018 None None Lovely Second time staying in this lovely home; comfy, close to stores and recreation. Mike is wonderful to work with and I’ll definitely stay here again. Stayed 25 nights in Sep 2018
10/10 Excellent Amanda S. 27 Sept 2018 None None If I travel to the area again next year I’ll be checking the availibilty of this place first! I cannot tell you how pleased I was with my recent stay at this property. The house itself was much more spacious than I had expected it to be. The kitchen is fully equipped with a Keurig, the bathroom has Qtips, the refrigerator has condiments, I could go on about every room!

The upstairs has three bedrooms with a full bath and downstairs has a Large bedroom with a full bath. Downstairs also has a daybed along with another couch. The downstairs would be perfect for a couple with a few kids. The house is situated at the end of an extremely quiet neighborhood. The Amtrak line runs pretty close to the property but it certainly wasn’t loud unless you were on the deck. Even being on the deck you couldn’t feel the train go by and the deck is lovely. It’s completely surrounded by trees and greenery so it feels completely private.

It has parking for up to three and you can see the beach from the front of the house. It was ideal for me and my family.

The owner was super easy to work with. He stopped by while we were there to bring a full propane tank for the grill and to make sure we didn’t need anything. I would definitely recommend this property!

Stayed 5 nights in Sep 2018 Response from VrboOwner on 21 Mar 2020 What a great review! I do hope Amanda and her friends return because they were friendly and very respectful of the house.

In my humble opinion, the house is fine, but it is not over the top. But reasonably priced, comfortable, and clean.

10/10 Excellent Verified traveller 21 Aug 2018 None None Enjoyed our two- month stay. Very nice house. Great owner. Stayed 67 nights in May 2018
10/10 Excellent Anne-Paul S., West Hartford, CT, USA 27 Jul 2018 None None Perfect…location, house, kitchen, deck, outside shower, beach, and very accommodating owner, Mike Mike, the owner, could not have been more welcoming and helpful! The house was beautiful; the kitchen fully equipped even with herbs and spices; the living room pleasant. The train was intriguing! Never disturbed us. The steep circular staircase to the 4th bedroom was an issue for small children and me (age 70 with cane…I never used it). The walk to the beach was easy…just used care crossing rt. 156. The beach was beautiful. Having good laundry machines was helpful…small children needed laundry every day. And the outside shower was great! As was a hose at the front door to wash your feet before entering the house. There were five of us and it all was so nice. Thank you, Mike. Oh, the very close-by carousel was perfect for the 3 1/2 yr old and we went to Mystic one day, easy distance…under thirty minutes. Thank you so much Mike! Stayed 7 nights in Jul 2018 Response from VrboOwner on 21 Mar 2020 Anne
I appreciate the review and Anne kind words. The family was very respectful of the property and I would like to see them return
10/10 Excellent James S. 21 Jan 2018 None None A great place to stay and a wonderful owner to work with First and foremost the owner, Michael was a superb to work with. Family members were coming to CT for a funeral. We were all scheduled to arrive Jan 4, yes the same day as the blizzard. All four of our flights from CA and MI were all canceled. We were all rescheduled for the next day. The communications with Michael was timely and accurate. Everything in the home worked perfectly. His home was warm and welcoming. The home provided us a calm and inviting environment to relax and unwind. This place is number one on our list when we need a large cozy home to stay in. Jim Stayed 6 nights in Jan 2018 Response from VrboOwner on 21 Mar 2020 Jim is very kind in his review. But we are glad he and his family found the house comfortable and inviting.
