A perfect home for our reunion

The Arts and Crafts home was more beautiful than the pictures reflected! We loved all of the details in the woodwork, hidden little corners, tons of space to spread out and wonderful places to gather together. Having recently sold our "family home" we were thrilled to find this home in which to have a mini- family reunion. The kitchen was incredibly well-stocked- from serving platters to garlic powder to paper towels...We had everything we needed. The gas fireplace created a beautiful focal point and the kids enjoyed all the games (especially Connect Four and Jenga).We all loved staying at the Art and Crafts home in Milford- it was a unanimous decision to try to come back next year!!

Anniversary Trip

We had a great stay at this home. It was wonderful and quirky in the way all 100+ year old homes can be. Lots of space for all of us. We were a big group from 3 to 83 years old. The porch was our favorite spot watching the water and all the neighbors who walked by, many stopping to chat. Shared great meals in the large dining room and even had a ping pong tournament. Loved that the outdoor shower has a hot water setting. Just loved it.

Great host, great views

The house is so well suited to a small group. The kitchen is fully stocked. The location is magnificent - right across the street from the beach. We really appreciated the EV charger. The front porch is the perfect place to relax and watch the world go by. Our host was so friendly and accommodating and easy to work with. Responded very quickly to all messages. Highly recommend.

Perfect Getaway

We had an absolutely fantastic long weekend at this spacious and beautiful house near the beach! It was a perfect getaway for our extended family, with ample room for everyone to spread out comfortably. We enjoyed leisurely walks by the beach, cozy evenings gathered around the fireplace, and breathtaking views that truly enhanced our stay. The house was impeccably clean and well-maintained, exactly as advertised. We couldn't have asked for a better retreat. Highly recommended for anyone looking to create lasting memories with loved ones.

Delightful!

What a fabulous house! I just happen to adore the arts and crafts style so I was already thrilled, but the house was so much more! The art work and collectibles and books - everything was so unique and interesting! My 7 year old granddaughter was fascinated by much of the art on the walls. I felt like I was in "Downton Abbey". We loved it! We enjoyed the beach across the street and Silver Sands State park. Our favorite pastime was sitting on the front porch watching the people, fancy cars and dogs go by and looking at the water and ospreys. I saw my first monk parrot in a big nest down the street. It was a wonderful vacation. Thank you Deborah, you made everything so easy!

Lovely house

We loved staying at this house. The elevator was important to me & was perfect for my arthritic knees. The house had so much character & the views were outstanding. A lot of time was spent on the front porch looking at the amazing view of the sound. Definitely will stay here again.

Great place for a large family

I'm one of 11 children. We all live out of town except my brother whose 70th birthday we were celebrating. The house held all of us who were able to make it, spouses and 3 grandchildren. Spacious, clean, plenty of room for us to have conversation and relax. The large windows are really wonderful. You can't beat the views. Books galore! We all thoroughly enjoyed our stay!

One of a Kind - Great Stone Home

The house and location are a 10. Beautiful home with easy access to beach, stores, and restaurants. Our family loved the space, piano, ping pong table, great porch beach view, and walks along the shore with big beautiful New England shore homes. Family would like to return next year.

About the host

Hosted by Deborah Schwartz

Our family has owned this house for a very long time, and we have had joyous years of using the house for summer fun, Christmas time parties, lounging on the porch, watching fireworks on the fourth of July, fishing off the pier, and great nights of cooking for large groups of friends and family. Some of us live in NYC, others in Washington, and others in Connecticut. This is our favorite vacation place.

Why they chose this property

This is a magical house, with warm rich wood and stone details, on the beach, with lots of lovely rooms for rest and privacy, and spacious communal spaces for parties, family reunions, or work retreats.

What makes this property unique

Great location on the beach, perfect for large gatherings, but the house has so much space, and so many remote niches that it is also easy to find a quiet place to curl up and read a book. Private space and party space all wrapped into one incredibly beautiful house!
