We rented this house for a year, two adults and three kids age 5, 8 and 13. What a wonderful house in a wonderful neighborhood! People around here are so friendly and welcoming. Close to the beach and the historic and beautiful Thimble Islands, conveniently located in relation to Yale, Shoreline Railroad and I-95, and with good public schools. There is also a public library, a playground and a nice café only a few hundred yards away. The owners are very friendly and easy to communicate with. We stumbled across this house when it was advertised on the net and we can hardly believe we were so fortunate. We wholeheartedly recommend this house. Excellent Hans Butenschon 1/20/2011 11:31:00 AM
