My two besties and I were looking for a get away to celebrate our birthdays and we could not be happier to have stayed at Dawn's house - it is truly a hidden gem!!!
We originally looked at Mystic / Newport area but ultimately wanted to find a house where we could relax and walk to the beach. We didn't know much about New London, but had searched the coast using the map function and the property seemed perfect. We were SO impressed with how it exceeded our expectations!
We live in CT and have driven through New London, but didn't realize it had such beautiful properties on the water. This house is less than a block from a private sandy beautiful beach, a nice walk to a buzzy boardwalk, and there are great restaurant options nearby. It was PERFECT for us.
Dawn is definitely a super host. You can feel it in the way she has maintained and decorated her home for guests. Being on a girls weekend, we wanted it to feel a bit elevated and this house delivered. The house is not only clean but has a beautiful modern feel, the bedrooms are perfectly sized, updated bathrooms, there is a ton of natural light, adorable outdoor seating, the perfect selection of kitchenware, new clean beach chairs and towels. Even the toiletries, towels, hairdryer, etc were top notch.
While Dawn respected our privacy we were so happy to meet her as she was incredibly friendly and we got to share our compliments with her - and told her we'll be booking again next year! It's a hidden gem!
