10/10 Excellent
"This is a great location on the Main Street, perfect for parking your car and then walking everywhere! We loved finding the nearby bakery, chocolate shop, waffle shop, Edge Cafe, and more! Lovely town -- just know that it gets quiet about 4:30pm when most shops close. So, we did sleep well, and our room was spacious. Amenities like coffee, dishes, and a mini refrigerator were very nice."

Treetops Seaview Montville

10/10 Excellent
"We stayed here for two nights as a couple and it was a really wonderful experience. The view from the room was incredible, and the room had a lot of nice touches. From a lovely breakfast hamper (which comfortably lasted us two mornings), fireplace with ample firewood, a very welcoming reception team, and did I mention the view, it made for a great cabin stay. For a property so close to Montville main street you would never know it once you are in your room. Would definitely recommend it, and we will be looking to stay again in the future. The only warning I'd offer is if you have accessibility issues, definitely call them first. Things like a step down into a spa bath with shower overhead, and at least some of the cabins using a number of stairs to access, you'd definitely want to call and discuss first. But these seem pretty well flagged by the provider as well."
