Avis pour 1ST FLR APT Your Private Resort, now FAMILY-ized: 1 BR + LR suitable for 2 kids
The property was beautiful! The homeowners were very sweet. The rental had everything you could possibly need and some! I highly recommend this property!
Beautiful property with unbelievable views. Imagine this would be stunning when leaves change in the fall. Plenty of room for us and all the things you need for your stay. Will be back on our next visit to Connecticut.
Comfortable apartment, lovely pool with gorgeous view. We had some trouble with communication prior to our arrival (coming in from overseas which was a bit of a worry) but once we got settled everything was ok. Gabe was a responsive host. Our 17 year old slept in the living room. Found the couch more comfortable than the inflatable bed and wasn't impressed with the sleeping bag for bedding. Overall a comfortable, quiet place for a few days.
This was an amazing trip for me and my wife to enjoy a nice private get away. The property was very clean. The owner Gabe was very friendly and kind their dogs were a delight and very playful happy dogs. The experience overall was very nice for both of us.
Very cozy, spectacular views and very accomodating hosts. The kitchen is fully stocked for preparing meals at home and very near major grocery stores for food shopping
Not very welcoming and definitely not a resort feeling
I stayed here by myself for 3 weeks while I completed a summer internship at a laboratory in Milford.
I made the mistake of not reading the house manual in detail. Nevertheless, I apologized to Pat and Gabe for not having read the rules and committed to following all of them.
I did my best to communicate with them that I would like to have 1 or 2 people over a week. It often took them 24+ hours to respond to my messages, which was pretty frustrating.
They told me that I would have to give them several days' notice to have 1 or 2 friends over (this was NOT listed in the house manual at the time). When I told them that I couldn't guarantee several days' notice but would try my best, Pat voiced that she thought I was disrespectful and mentioned my age as potentially being the reason why.
Pat's allegations me very uncomfortable, especially as a 25 y/o woman of color who frequently experiences discrimination and microaggressions. It didn't help that my dad had been injured by one of their dogs while helping me move in and Gabe couldn't even ask him if he was okay.
The owners updated the house manual during my stay and listed "harassment by some guests" as the reason they don't allow guests to have visitors. If following all the house rules and asking to casually have a friend over (to not be in complete isolation for three weeks) is harassment, then I don't know what to say.
I wouldn't recommend staying here if you're young or plan on having anyone over.
We really felt like we were secluded from the word but for the view. This place was relaxing, clean and close to everything we wanted to see and do. Easy to find! Lots to do right there too.
Gabe was very communicative and we just loved the dogs. Very friendly.
Beautiful place and attentive and friendly host. The mountains the pool the peacefulness were all incredible. The guides and info left were so thorough and thoughtful. Def an A+ place to visit for one or a family!
