About this property

5-Bedroom/2-Bath Beach-Front Cottage - Groton Long Point, Connecticut

Charming, beach-front cottage with 5 second floor bedrooms, located in family-friendly Groton Long Point. It offers everything you would expect from a relaxing Connecticut shore vacation, with sweeping views of Fisher's Island and Long Island Sound that will take your breath away. Conveniently located 5 min from historic Mystic and under 2 hours from Boston, 2 1/2 hrs from NYC by car or AMTRAK direct to Mystic.

We have completely renovated our beloved cottage. Our goal was to update without sacrificing its traditional cottage charm. We think you'll come to love this special place like so many generations of our friends and family have before you.

Our family uses the cottage for about half the summer, but rents it out for the remaining weeks to families who will treat the home with respect and who will respect our neighbors and our local ordinances.

We have a 14 night minimum stay.

It is also available for 6 months during the winter at off-season rates.

CGA Graduation
Cal’s house was perfect for family attending our son’s graduation from the Coast Guard Academy - great location, with beautiful views of Long Island Sound from practically every room. The house is well appointed and convenient to CGA and Mystic. Cal was very responsive and gave us some great recommendations for places to eat. We would most definitely love to rent this house again if we’re in the area. Thank you Cal!

Awesome accommodations!
Cal and Jenny’s House was perfect for our Multi generational group. Comfortable Groton Long point style with everything we needed. We spent many hours sitting on the porch swing enjoying beautiful views of the ocean. The sandy beach in front of us was perfect for the kids wether they were paddle boarding, floating on floats or hunting for crabs. Convenient to the “casino” snack bar. playground and other beaches. Cal and Jenny where very responsive to our needs. All in all a perfect stay!

Amazing vacation
We have fallen in love with Groton Long Point and with Cal and Jennifer’s house. Amazing views and great for 2 family’s with 4 kiddos. We will have these memories forever and can not wait to return. Cal greeted us when we got there and was very helpful with even recommendations for food and events. I can’t sing my praises of this vacation enough!!

About the host

Hosted by Cal

Host profile image
Our family has owned this cottage since our grandparents bought it in 1938. It's now owned by the third generation. Several of us live locally and all of us come back every summer with our kids and grandkids.

Why they chose this property

Groton Long Point is a little piece of heaven. Spending time there is like being transported to carefree summers of years gone by. You can choose to take advantage of all kinds of activities, or you can sit on the porch and simply watch the boats go by.

It's perfect for kids of all ages. There are uncrowded beaches, playgrounds, an old-fashioned snack shop & ice cream parlor, fishing piers and nature trails. Mystic is ten minutes away and there are nearby restaurants for every taste and pocketbook. It's convenient and easy to get to, but it feels like it's a million miles from the rat race. And its close to Foxwoods and Mohegan Sun casinos and all the nightlife and entertainment they offer.

What makes this property unique

Our cottage is a perfect mix of old fashion charm and modern convenience. The recent renovation updated everything and the kitchen has all new appliances. It features central air conditioning for those occasional days when the sea breeze isn't quite enough.
