You really feel like you are experiencing what it's like to live in the delightful New England community of New Canaan. The hosts are most gracious and kind (another characteristic of NC).

It is much more spacious than it looks on the outside.It was clean and had everything we needed.

The communication we had with the owner from the beginning was prompt and informative. You do not need to bring any extras, they are all there! While sitting on the deck one morning, the owners brought over a book of the history of the cabin which made it all more interesting! The location is great and convenient and quiet! We will be back!"

A charming two bedroom apartment located within a private community with a quiet, park like setting near the Sound. Convenient to I-95 and commuter lines, Chelsea Piers, shopping and excellent restaurants. Walking distance to Cummings and Cove beach parks. The property has private parking and seasonal views of the water.
- "Great location in a quiet neighborhood. The rental is nicely done and had everything we needed for our stay. Would definitely stay here again." - "Everything we needed on our trip. Great neighborhood and easy access to stores and interstate." - "Came to the area for my daughter to tour some schools. The location was relaxing and peaceful. Close to 2 beaches- yet there is a daily charge of $69 if you want to park and use the beach front. Walking to the beach area is also an option- 30 to 45 minutes. The apartment was beautifully decorated and very clean. We cooked breakfast each morning as there were pots and pans and other supplies. Beds were comfortable and the attention to detail was appreciated! Great towels and linens. Owners very responsive."

An historic cottage, built in 1790, in Westport, CT is 55 minutes via train to Manhattan NYC, 30 minutes to New Haven, CT (home of the prestigious Yale University and historical area). You are also 1.5 miles from Westport's private beach, 2 miles from the public beach, Sherwood Island (both are historic as the arrival place of George Washington's troops!). The owner family Agnoloni-Speciale restored this charming historical apartment with full modern amenities and many comforts . Comfortable for all seasons, there is a deck for sun bathing or grilling, and an original fireplace for warmth.
- "I came to Westport to see if it's a place I would want to live in, and I found a great place to stay while I was checking out the area. Not only is the town and surrounding area a wonderful combination of country and suburban city comfort, the cottage we stayed at was very sweet and charming, built in 1790! The owners are warm and friendly and very accommodating and helpful to any needs or questions you may have. I would definitely recommend staying here. Thank you Jennifer & Lorenzo!!"

- "My husband and I are relocating to the East Coast and after a week-long drive across the country, we were happy, tired and grateful to arrive at Leti’s lovely apartment for a 3-week stay. It was exactly what we had hoped for —in fact, better than expected. The unit had parking, a fenced yard (with patio table and grassy area), a washer-dryer (with soap provided!) and a wonderful, well-appointed full kitchen and living space. The apartment was extremely clean with new furnishings and thoughtful, pretty decor. The bed was comfortable and the linens fresh and clean. An upstairs loft area with skylight provided the perfect spot for my husband to work-from-home. Location-wise, the neighborhood is busy, but we did not have any problems with noise and it was only a five-minute drive to a cute downtown with great restaurants. It was also super close to freeway entrances which made it easy to get wherever we wanted to go. New York City was about an hour’s drive away and it was only 15 minutes to hiking trails, or in the other direction, shopping, etc. Bottom line, we loved our stay here and were impressed with Leti’s quick and efficient communication and response times. She addressed any and all questions that arose in a helpful, friendly and professional way. We would definitely stay again and would recommend booking with her without hesitation."

Our charming beach cottage is available in the exclusive Saugatuck Shores area, literally steps to the water (150 steps to be exact!). The neighborhood is great for walking, running, biking and water sports. The house is located on a peninsula, so there is water at every turn. You can experience the truly spectacular morning sunrises and afternoon sunsets. In the summer, walks to the yacht club for an informal lunch or lounging on the several small beaches nearby are lovely ways to spend the day. Our cottage is located within easy distance of the highways (I-95 and the Merritt Parkway), the train station and the downtown areas of Westport and South Norwalk with all their shops and restaurants.
Our home is sweetly decorated and has been curated with relaxation and beach living in mind. It has three bedrooms downstairs, each with a queen bed. Upstairs is an entire second floor loft space done in bright white strips with a large desk and an oversized pouf - ( there are no beds in this space any longer).
There are two bathrooms with Waterworks and Restoration Hardware fixtures and a petite yet gourmet kitchen with Italian marble countertops, stainless steel appliances, a farmhouse sink and a Viking range. The dining alcove is especially sweet as it is strewn with seashells. There are two enclosed porches plus an extra large yard fenced yard with outdoor grill.
Cloud 9 is the perfect place to rest your head while in town for business or pleasure.
Rentals longer than 1 month may be subject to different pricing and utility inclusions / exclusions.
The furniture changes frequently as we are decorators and are continually imbuing the space with fantastic finds - what remains is the charm and serene energy surrounding the cottage.
SAME DAY BOOKINGS WELCOME if we have availability. Homeaway does not allow this automatically so reach out to us if this is your situation.
***Fall 2024*** Our calendar is set to accommodate one month stays or longer to prevent any short term booking issues with Homeaway - which happen quite often for both travelers and owners. Feel free to write us for a shorter stay. If we can accommodate you, we will try.

Very cozy and comfortable." - "Amazing location, cozily & completely appointed cottage that fit us like a glove. Comfortable for a couple or more, good vibes abound at this graciously hosted home. Loaded with charm and lovely, indoor/outdoor spaces, it was our good fortune to find this wonderful respite. Morning coffee on the screen porch looking out at the backyard followed by a walk along the waterways was a fav every day. Lucky we were to find this little slice of harborside heaven!"

- "Just returned from my trip. The cottage was adorable and clean, well stocked and the owners were available if I needed them. The beach was a short walk up the road, but I was disappointed that the beach is all sectioned off with private beaches. The beach at the end of the road was the width of the one way road the cottage was on. I assumed that was for anyone on the side road where the cottage sits. Not sure how it is at busy times, but at least nobody was on the beach and it was peaceful - maybe because when I went, renters were done with vacation and focused on school? The scenery was breathtaking. It felt like a safe area. I did walk back to the beach and once I accepted the private beaches situation, it was very nice. No parking, however, so you have to walk to the beach, but it's not far - about 8 houses down. Restaurants are close and very good. The center of town (also close by, but not within walking distance) had a concert series happening with little shops in the downtown area, including an ice cream shop that was excellent! There is no Handicap access for this property and it would be tough for an elderly person or someone with a disability, including not having grab bars in the bathtub/shower. Overall it was quiet, felt safe and it was quaint and clean. I would definitely go back again! The area has a lot to offer and the location is perfect."

We dont have a ton of storage space but it hasnt been a problem so far. It will depend upon how much you are bringing with you.
Because this is a cottage associated with a main house, you wont have your own mail box. Deliveries would come to the main house and we can bring them to your front door. If you are needing your own mail delivery, you might consider leasing a PO box at the local office if necessary. So far it has worked out even for long term guests.

We would like to meet in person in advance of accepting any reservation. No smoking on or around premises.
