If you’re dreaming of a coastal escape that blends charm, comfort, and unforgettable memories, this Madison Vrbo is your ticket to paradise! Nestled in one of Connecticut’s most picturesque shoreline towns, this rental exceeded every expectation and then some.From the moment we arrived, we were captivated by the immaculate interiors, thoughtful amenities, and breathtaking views. The home was spotless, beautifully decorated with coastal flair, and equipped with everything we needed—from plush linens and a fully stocked kitchen to fast WiFi and cozy reading nooks. The layout was perfect for our group, offering both communal spaces and private retreats.What truly sets this place apart is its prime location. Just minutes from Hammonasset Beach State Park, we spent our days soaking up the sun, strolling the boardwalk, and exploring the nearby nature trails. The town center is equally delightful, with local gems like RJ Julia Booksellers, charming cafés, and farm-to-table restaurants.The hosts were phenomenal—responsive, welcoming, and genuinely invested in making our stay exceptional. They provided a detailed guidebook with insider tips that helped us discover hidden treasures around Madison.Whether you’re planning a romantic getaway, a family vacation, or a friends’ retreat, this Vrbo is a five-star sanctuary you’ll want to return to again and again.

Such a beautiful apartment, so well appointed with lovely furniture, full kitchen with new appliances - the beds were so very comfortable!Sitting outside was glorious, as well! Beautiful grounds, so well-maintained.Our host, Kevin, was instantly responsive to questions as we planned our stay, giving us confidence that we could reach him if we had any questions during our stay - but everything was so perfect, we didn't need to call!We will hope to return to this lovely place next year for our annual family reunion.

Perfectly Located Lovely Home

The carriage house sits on a nice piece of property directly across the road from the trail to the national park. We went off-season and didn't lack for anything in the cozy home. During our four-day stay, we cooked one meal and ate meals out the rest (except for light breakfasts). Kevin is so responsive. The trail goes in two directions, so you get some variety right there, and you are close to many different small towns and beaches, including Clinton, Madison, and Guilford. Jacob's Beach is nice; you can walk there from Pa's Restaurant in the Guildford Marina.Had a great time overall. Thanks for your lovely home!

Sweet carriage house

I’ll be returning here whenever there’s no room to stay at Mom’s house. Immaculate, light-filled rooms with comfy new furniture, bedding — what a treat. The kitchen has everything you might need and the host has provided basic items that will please dog-owners and “I forgot to pack X” packers. The location is a stone’s throw from the beach and a nice walk into charming downtown Madison.

Clean and bright and great location

Everything was up to date, beautifully decorated, and very clean. Each bedroom has a closet with shelves because there is no space for anything but a bed and two bedside tables. The skylights in the bathroom and living room make it really bright. Totally updated with new bathroom and kitchen. With windows shut the road noise is minimal. Close to town, beach, stores. Great location Kevin very easily reached and he gives heads up about people staying at the house on the property We brought a baby gate so our dog could enjoy the porch. Pretty much everything you need is there. Loved all of the outlets and USB ports in the living room and bedroom. And also the lights on the stairs leading up to the apartment for after dark.
