Annual Girls Getaway
We're a group of high school friends who have been getting together annually for many years. We've had some great houses over the years, and this qualifies up there with the best of them. Even though it's a little smaller than the houses we've booked in the past the location was great, and the house was incredibly well stocked. We loved it so much we're looking to book again for next year if we can make the dates work with the property availability.

Dream Beach Week
This house met every need. Comfortable, well stocked with extras, everything we needed for beach fun. One room great for the younger set and the other living space great for the older set. Space to spread out, carpeted second floor and stairs plus solid walls kept kid commotion in check. Nice deck, nice chairs in front, nice back yard seating, ample kitchen space for big meals and family cooking…and those beaches….a wonderful week for everyone, and we are booking again😊

Great stay
The house was exactly as a described and has every amenity you could think of! The bedrooms are all a nice size and the beds are very comfortable. There were more than enough towels and blankets and the kitchen has everything you need ie platters, pressure cooker, spices, pots, bowls, waffle maker, etc. just a few minute walks to the beach and driving distance to everything in mystic. The host was extremely communicative and our group of 8 was very happy! Can’t wait to stay here again.

This house was the perfect location with access to the private beaches. The house was very clean and well equipped with everything needed for a comfortable stay. Owners were very responsive with any questions we had. Two families of 4 stayed very comfortably in this wonderful home with comfy beds! The second story deck was perfect for coffee in the morning or cocktails in the evening! We would definitely stay here again!

Wonderful stay in great New London neighborhood!
We loved our stay in New London! The house is exactly as it appears in the pictures, and it was a perfect size for our family of 4 adults and 3 children. The layout was ideal for the kids to have a room to play in while the adults could watch TV, and the kitchen was particularly well stocked to meet all of our needs. The outdoor spaces were fantastic as well - we had dinner on the upstairs balcony and played in the small backyard with the kids. The location is absolutely perfect - access to the small private beach was our favorite part and the neighborhood is so nice and quiet. Damian was super responsive and communicative any time we had questions. We will definitely book this house again!

Beach Getaway
Having rented beach houses now for 13 years up and down the east coast, I have to say that this was one of the cleanest and most well stocked houses we’ve stayed in. Cute beach decorations added to the beach vibe all throughout. Damian was a very responsive host, answering any questions we had in a very timely manner. The private beach was a plus and just a short walk away. Perfect house, perfect location = perfect beach week stay.

Comfy, chill beach vacation
House is as advertised with more than enough room for our group of 6. Nicely decorated in a relaxed, beachy vibe with plenty of amenities and supplies. Access to the private beach with chairs, umbrellas and towels was a real bonus. Also a short walk to Ocean Beach Park and boardwalk. Would have been better for us if house were closer to more nice playgrounds and rainy day indoor activities for young kids.

We take our kids and our kids away every year for a long weekend get away. This year we decided to go to Conn. We enjoyed the beach and Mystic Aquarium and just hanging around the house and playing cards. Being one that loves to cook, I was so impressed with the kitchen and everything that it was equipped with. Thank you for sharing your home with us.

A hidden gem!
Everything about the house and the beach exceeded our expectations. The house is so fully stocked with essentials from the coffee bar to the spice cabinet. Every kitchen utensil, gadget and all kinds of cooking equipment are provided. Coffee, teas, spices, condiments etc. All the furnishings are very comfortable, especially the beds. It’s just really comfortable. The private beaches are just lovely. So close and you can leave the chairs and umbrellas there all week. And they provide so many chairs and umbrellas you really don’t need to bring your own. Probably haven’t said enough about how wonderful this place is. Plus the Host is great!

Incredible stay
A really great stay! The house was incredibly comfortable, cozy, and clean. Great use of space in the living room, four season room with fireplace, nook off of the living room. Bedrooms were spacious, beds were very comfortable. Loved the view from the deck off the upstairs bedrooms. Kitchen was great for meals. And like other reviewers have mentioned, the kitchen is incredibly stocked for cooking just about anything. The quick walk to the water and lighthouse was awesome, even in the freezing cold of February. And the coastal decor was perfect, it made us feel at home. Had great communications with owner prior to arrival. We are hoping to return.

Perfect Beach House
Our family stayed for the weekend to attend a wedding at the Eloi Mansion. It was the perfect location, in close proximity to the event and to the other families who were staying nearby. The house is so comfortable and welcoming with nautical decor throughout. The kitchen is fully stocked with every imaginable dish, glass, cookware and a mega coffee station! Although it was a rainy/foggy weekend, we were still able to enjoy the ocean views, both from our upper balcony and via the private gated community beach entrance. Would definitely stay here again!

Great Experience.. Thank you
Being a host myself it was nice to be on the other side of the experience. There were some things that I liked that you did and the experience you gave.. The home was cozy, it was comfortable. I don't have alexa or anything like that in my homes as that made me a little uneasy. I do protect my property with cameras around the exterior for the safety of my guests. The day we were checking out we did have to set about 2 hours aside to wash, dry and fold towels. It wasn't the worst thing ever. For future guests get this worked out with your team. Overall the home was amazing.. We did really enjoy ourselves. Overall the experience was a 5 star with some feedback to make it the experience even better... Thank you and we will definitely be back. - Gabriel

We've come back 4 years in a row! -What does that tell you?
Our family has come down to the New London area for 8 or 9 years. We want our kids and grandkids to enjoy the pleasures of a beach community and get together each year to bond as an extended family; for several years we switched houses until we found this house. In the 4 years we've been coming, Damian and Angie have improved the house each year with amazing additions. This year it has been a new upstairs deck with a view of the water, chairs and an outside dinner table; they add an amazing outdoor hot shower to clean off after coming from the beach; there is new beautiful stonework with a new 3 chair patio in front of the house. there is a indoor hepa filter to enhance covid safety and indoor air quality; the new enclosed front porch has a huge table and chairs along with a huge TV and a new ? electric fireplace . the house is so tastefully decorated in nautical themes. this year 2 of my grandkids got splinters on the ocean beach boardwalk; in the bathroom there is an emergency first aide kit the has a splinter forceps, a safety pin and some bacitracin that saved us 2 trips to the urgent care. Already thinking about next year

Year number 6 for our family says it all!!
We've stayed at several beach houses in the New London area as our family has grown. Each has had its pluses and minuses. We've been coming to the Neptune Court house for 6 years, and there are no minuses (Except that we don't own it!) It has everything we need and more. the bedrooms are great and plenty of room for the kids. The nautical theme of the house is outstanding; the furnishing and comfort of the house speaks to the owners thoughtfulness, sense of taste and caring. From the hair dryers to the shampoo and conditioner, the bandaids and towels and washer-dryer and gas grill and balcony porch and 2 large screen TV's so the adults an watch Netflix while the kids are watching the little mermaid in another room. Their collection of beach chairs, umbrellas and a beach caddy make it easy to walk the 200 + steps to the beach. The kitchen has more stuff available than we have in our home. Thank you Damian and Angela for helping our family make memories. PS - Almost forgot our grandkids favorite part, the outdoor shower; we can't get the grandkids to shower at home, but they will shower outdoors under this hot water shower and stay under it until an impatient sib says "Get out! it's my turn".

Perfect location for Harkness State Park
Our family was attending a wedding at Harkness State Park -- just 8 minutes away. The home more than accommodated our crew of 7 adults and made our stay a breeze. The decor is relaxing, modern seaside, there's plenty of common space to hang out without being on top of each other, and all the bedrooms are oh so comfortable. The outside is picture-perfect charming and the parking area is more than ample. The host is lovely to deal with, and provided a helpful guide of local places to eat and visit. We highly recommend this property to anyone who needs to stay in the area.

About the host

Why they chose this property

It is our cozy beach home and there are plenty of games, places to relax and you can stroll to the beach very easily for a 2 mile walk all on oceanfront. Really nice flat neighborhood with lots of runners and walkers. Bring your ocean kayaks, SUP boards or floaties for use in the water. Sunrises are awesome from the beach and bathe the front of the home in the morning. In the afternoon, relax on the shaded balcony with water views or sit on the Adirondack chairs in the backyard to catch the last of the sun. Sunsets are the best from the 4th beach (the longest one). Sit with your wine on the sand or on the rocks until the sun sets.

What makes this property unique

Super clean, organized, plenty of amenities and decorated (with a beachy vibe) for the holidays. It is pretty special to sometimes see the unique boats in the Thames and LI Sound from the beach or balcony. You may even be lucky enough to see a submarine being towed in our out. Close via short drive to SE CT shore points and to RI (Watch Hill area). Mystic, Block Island Ferry, lobster, scallops, boating, sailing, SUP/ kayak, ferries, wineries, casinos all within the area. Really quiet and peaceful at the beach in winter too and towns nearby stay open all year.
