New! Shore Haven: Private Island Retreat w/ Sauna & Long Island Sound Views

Private Island Retreat – Luxe Canfield Island Escape (Westport, CT)

3 BR | 2.5 BA | Sleeps 6 | 3,131 Sq Ft

Private Gated Island | Cove + Long Island Sound Views | Spa Amenities



Welcome to a rare opportunity to stay in one of Westport's most exclusive and serene private residences — a refined, design-forward home located on the secluded and gated Canfield Island.



Shore Haven isn't just a place to stay — it’s a place to exhale. Nestled between the tides and sky, this ocean-side escape offers front-row seats to the rhythm of coastal life. Wake to golden sunrises spilling across the calm waters of the marsh, where paddleboards await for a morning glide — or simply float and let the water carry you as the world wakes around you. End your day with fiery sunsets viewed from the front porch, drink in hand, as the sky puts on a nightly show.



From nearly every window, nature takes center stage. Watch ospreys soar and dive in real time, their calls echoing across the island, while the gentle rustle of marsh grasses and the distant lull of the sea create a soundtrack of total peace. Here, time slows. Shoes are optional. And serenity is guaranteed.



Whether you're adventuring on the water or simply savoring a quiet moment on the deck, Shore Haven is a rare coastal haven where design meets deep tranquility — and where every sunrise and sunset reminds you that you're exactly where you're meant to be.



This is not your average rental. It’s a private residence, lovingly curated and maintained, and now selectively offered for guests seeking a truly special stay. The homeowner is delighted to share their home for a few select dates each month — think of it as an exclusive invitation, not just a booking. Because of this, the calendar may show limited availability and we do not accept last-minute bookings (notice required). Please contact us to plan your get-a-way.
