This is a great museum and Essex is an awesome little town to visit. With a salty New England charm this patriotic community oozes red white and blue. Grab some ice cream and walk down to the dock at the museum and feed the ducks... chances are someone will be by with a golden lab or some other well bred dog to frolic in the water.

Old Lyme Inn

"The bathroom sink drained very, very slowly the entire time we stayed. The room lighting was a little too dim. However, the Inn is beautiful, The room was spacious. We had a very good bed. "

Luxurious midcentury modern glass house in the woods, chefs kitchen & great art

10/10 Excellent

"The kitchen was the heartbeat of our stay and did not disappoint. Since we were a group aged 19 to 93 it was a great place to gather and my mom could sit in the treehouse dining area while everyone else buzzed around prepping and cooking. The coffee and tea area was like being in a luxury hotel and the cookware, dishware, and glassware was over the top!"

"An amazing stay! Our Hosts accessibility and attentiveness made us so comfortable. Checking in and out was a breeze. The cozy atmosphere inside; the light and beautiful views of the water from every room made us not want to leave for a minute! Outdoor spaces were perfect for coffee in the morning. The dock was made for early evening cocktails. It was a wonderful experience and we look forward to spending time here again soon!"

A Perfect Getaway. Direct assess to the 1000 acre Old Saybrook Essex Preserve

10/10 Excellent

"Our stay in Old Saybrook was absolutely perfect! The house was spacious, beautifully decorated, and spotlessly clean. We loved the cozy coastal vibe, and the amenities were above and beyond—everything from the kitchen supplies to the comfy beds was thoughtfully provided. (Laundry too!)The location was ideal: peaceful and quiet, yet just a short drive to the beach, the town center, and local favorites like Pasta Vita. We especially appreciated the scenic surroundings and the quick access to everything we wanted to do.The host was kind and responsive, making the entire experience smooth and welcoming. We’re already talking about coming back. Highly recommend this spot if you're visiting the Connecticut shoreline!"
