Family-friendly vacation rentals in Old Saybrook

Our stay was peaceful located in a great place , the home its self was perfect if we come back next year we will book this place again

We loved staying at this home - it was the perfect place for our group of ten. The outdoor space was definitely the highlight, with the pool & spa being our favorite part of the trip. The only thing to note is that we weren’t supplied quite enough toilet paper or paper towels, though I did not reach out for more - It was the last evening when we ran out and we were leaving early the next morning. The trash requirements were a surprise after booking, but going to the transfer station was easy enough, and it is listed on the house rules. Overall, an excellent stay and would absolutely return!

This was the most beautiful house in a private area in Wading River. It offers peace and tranquility and lives up to its name of Zen Retreat. It was exactly what we were seeking. Conveniently located near parks, farms and wineries I would definitely go back to Brian’s AirBNB. He was an excellent host and very responsive to our needs. Thank you Brian.

We thoroughly enjoyed our time at the cottage. It was so very peaceful and we loved being literally right around n the water! Slept amazingly well and the cottage was just lovely! Robert was also a great host. 5 stars all around and we hope to return again!

Victoria's place was wonderful! It was spacious and comfortable and gave our family plenty of room to spread out and enjoy our visit. Victoria was a very responsive host and made check in and check out stress free and easy! There was ample parking for our cars and the house was private - it was the "house behind the house" so we weren't subject to busy traffic noise on the street. (Got a little confusing for DoorDash drivers but we worked it out :D). I will book this same place next time I am up for an extended weekend with the family. Highly recommend!

We only stayed at the Wandering Peacock for 1 night but it was such a treat as a place to crash along our road trip. Not a corner of the home was glossed over, every inch of the place is beautifully curated. Abigail was super responsive and a welcoming host. We squeezed in some time for the hot tub, it was ready to go in 2-3 hours and super relaxing. 10/10 would recommend.

The home is beautiful, clean, and very comfortable. We were there for six nights celebrating our son’s graduation from the United States Coast Guard Academy, and couldn’t have found a better place. Our family enjoyed gathering and spending time together. The house had everything you could need - Tracy and Patrick clearly care about creating an inviting place for families to enjoy and were very responsive. The location was perfect with easy access to restaurants, a grocery store, New London, Mystic, Foxwoods and Point Judith.

Stay was great, enjoyed the Spa and the hot tub ! I wish the hot tub closing times were posted somewhere but other than that it was great ! Fire place was a also very cool and the fire starter that is supplied was very helpful

Was the perfect little get away for us. And it was nice to find a place that accommodated the dogs so well. We appreciated being able to get to places easily but at the same time have a peaceful place to return to.

We can’t say enough about how grateful we are for Linda’s hospitality. From the moment we arrived, she made us feel completely at home. She’s a warm and gracious host who genuinely cares about her guests—and it shows in every thoughtful detail. Our dog absolutely loved exploring the beautiful grounds, and we loved waking up to the view of the pond and fresh coffee. It also happened to be my birthday during our stay, and Linda surprised us with birthday treats—such a kind and memorable gesture! She truly goes above and beyond. Her home is perfectly located near Watch Hill and everything Westerly has to offer.

This home was perfect. Loved that it is dog friendly. Its location to the surrounding cities and attractions will be the reason I will rent this home again.

Paris is a wonderful host. His property and cottage is a perfect retreat for two. Charming accommodations with a beautiful view and an easy walk to town. We’ll be back soon! Angelo C.

I stayed at Mary's rental with my sister's family including a 4yo and 6yo, as well as my 72yo mother and the house was a perfect fit! The downstairs bedroom and full bath were perfect for mom to avoid the steep stairs, and the house was well equipped with a ton of kids books and some toys. Proximity to town was the highlight, we were easily able to walk with the kids which was perfect since the weekend was too chilly for the beach. Mary was responsive if needed but the house is well stocked and easy to navigate so we felt at home right away. I will absolutely be renting from Mary again!

This was a great find! I booked this Airbnb for myself and 4 other girls and there was plenty of room and space for us to hangout, sleep, and get ready. Walkable to town. Extremely clean and had all the amenities you would need for a short weekend getaway. Marianne and Steven were very responsive whenever I had a question. I would totally book this Airbnb again!

We love staying at George’s place, it feels just like home away from home for us. We’ve visited this property several times over the years, most recently with our son who’s now old enough to fully enjoy the yard on his own. He had a fantastic time playing outside, talking to the deer and rabbits that came to visit. We even saw some turkey vultures! Overall a solid place to stay and it’s become somewhat of a family tradition. Thank you George!

This quaint far stay is a must for families! The abundance of animals is always entertaining. It felt right at home with all the personalized touches, including fresh eggs for breakfast. The location was easy to find, and there was a dedicated parking spot The accommodations were unexpectedly spacious and fun. My kids can’t wait to return

Friendly and prompt responder. Really clean. The kids more than loved the game room. And I personally loved the decor. Only objection is it’s kinda out of the way and you’d have to drive to do any activities, but other than that a really great stay.

Marta could not have been more accommodating! She was responsive and provided everything we needed. She even went the extra mile and insta cart-ed garbage bags and paper towels when we ran out. She could not have been a kinder host! We had the best weekend and would HIGHLY recommend staying at Marta’s place! We will definitely be back!

The pool house is so cute and the outdoor patio is gorgeous and the perfect place to relax. Great place to stay if you want to stay near New Haven but also want to enjoy quiet away from the city. Sue is a responsive and very generous host!

We had an amazing time at Marybeth’s suite—it truly felt like a winter wonderland. Our kids had a blast "swimming" in the snow and "rolling" over the gentle hills. Every moment was filled with joy, whether we were relaxing in the sunroom, playing in the snow, or swinging outside. The time spent together as a family, along with our conversations with Marybeth and her family, was truly precious. We can’t wait to return in the summer!

We had an excellent stay while attending our son's graduation at UCONN. The place was clean and homey, perfect when traveling back and forth. Our plans changed and we did not bring our dog, and Ashley was kind enough to refund us. My son goes back to UConn in the fall for his master's, and we know where we will stay again next May.

Always love staying at Ron’s. It’s so peaceful. Perfect location and beautiful Ocean views with a short ride if you need to go to town. Montauk Music Fest is a must. Amazing talent and great way to see all Montauk venues. Ron so great to have as a host!

We had a lovely stay at Eric's home. The home exceeded our expectations and we felt right at home. The decor was warm and inviting. Everything you could possibly need was in the stunning, modern kitchen. The beds were all comfortable and we slept very well. The property was very peaceful. We enjoyed seeing deer, turkeys and hawks each day. The fixtures in the home were modern, clean and high-end. It was great being so close to Greenport with it's wonderful restaurants and shops. We can't wait to return.

Alice’s place was great! We’ll be back again for sure.
