The apartment was very comfortable and had great views of the waterfront from the second floor. It is in an excellent location near downtown Essex.

Visiting family in the area and this was the perfect location to do it from. Accommodations were very comfortable and looked very nice. Made for a very relaxing atmosphere in our down time and at night. Bed and chairs were all very comfortable, everything was very clean. Lots of great places to eat, grab a drink, coffee or a snack just steps away. Definitly will be back!

This property was truly unique and the location could not have been any better. Walking distance to everything in town. The property owners were very helpful and overall it was a great stay. Lose to Old Saybrook where my dad is in assisted living. The location of thisproperty allowed us to spend quality time with him.

We loved our stay! Apartment was perfect. Upstairs views to the harbor were lovely to wake up to. Easy, quick walk to town and restaurant. We will be sure to go back and stay there again.
