Great site for annual family vacation
The three buildings - Main house, Guest Cottage and Pool House - gave our family both space to spread out as well as areas to hang out together. Everything was clean and well appointed. The owner was responsive and flexible.

Repeat stay - did not disappoint!
From the moment we arrived at this incredible rental we knew we were in for a treat. This beautifully designed property exceeded all our expectations yet again and provided us with an unforgettable vacation experience. The check-in process was smooth and hassle-free, with clear instructions from the owner on how to access the property and enjoy its many amenities. The spacious layout and thoughtful design made it easy for both kids and adults to find their own spaces to relax or gather together. One of the highlights of our stay was the well-appointed kitchen, complete with all the essentials we needed to prepare delicious meals for everyone in our group. There was a ton of space for both the kids to play and for the adults to enjoy some quiet downtime. Outside, the backyard provided ample space to play, while the outdoor dining table and chairs made it easy to enjoy al fresco meals. The location of the rental couldn't be beat – just minutes from some of the area's top attractions and restaurants, yet tucked away in a quiet neighborhood that felt like a secret oasis. We appreciated the owner's thoughtful recommendations for local activities and eateries, which were all fun (Mystic Aquarium!) and delicious (Drawbridge Ice Cream!) The perfect blend of comfort, convenience, and entertainment made it another fantastic stay – and we can't wait to come back again next year!

Great spot for a Family Reunion!
Gather your family at this compound by a Monet Lillypad pond. A tennis court and a pool are included on this gorgeous property of over ten acres. The two houses have modern interior decor. The spacious kitchen and dining area in the main house were perfect for our family of twelve. The separate wings of the home provided privacy and comfortable bedrooms. We highly recommend this VRBO. Close by is a magical farm and restaurant. The historic Stonington village is charming. So is nearby Mystic with its aquarium and WatchHill, RI with waves for beach days.

Amazing family getaway
Amber Crossing is perfect for hosting a family gathering. We came with grandparents and kids and it was exactly what we were looking for - great layout, tons of space, all high quality furnishings - and the property is a slice of heaven. The kids loved the pool and the tennis court and running around the huge yard. Great restaurants nearby and grilled at the house. And the hosts were super easy, communicative and helpful. We’ll definitely stay again!

Perfect work retreat, in the most relaxing setting
Our group of 14 recently had the pleasure of staying at a short-term rental that exceeded all our expectations. The layout of the space was absolutely fantastic, with a perfect balance between group congregations and individual rooms. Whether we wanted to socialize or have some alone time, there was always a cozy spot available. One of the standout features of this rental was the smart home technology. From controlling the lighting to adjusting the temperature, everything was seamlessly integrated and easy to use. It truly enhanced our stay and added a touch of modern luxury. We cannot praise the host enough for their responsiveness. They were always just a quick message away, ready to assist with any questions or concerns we had. Their attentiveness made us feel valued and taken care of, creating a truly memorable experience. Overall, this short-term rental provided an exceptional stay for my group which was perfect to provide a sense of calmness for our retreat. The great layout, smart home features, and responsive host elevated our experience to another level. I highly recommend it to anyone looking for a comfortable, relaxing and convenient place to stay. Additionally the proximity to great restaurants and takeouts made it easy for my group to focus on quality time with each other. We look forward to coming back to the property.

Stonington Getaway
The property is beautiful with plenty to do in the area. My friends and I explore the many activities in the Mystic and Stonington area. The property is in a fantastic location with bars, restaurants, and the marina all within a 10-minute drive. There is also a casino and a golf course within 20 minutes. The house itself is a beautiful 20-acre property with a gorgeous pool and plenty of space for outdoor activities. my friends enjoyed walking the property and playing tennis. The host did a great job of making sure the house was ready when we go there with all our requests taken care of in advance. The check-out process was very simple and the hosts were very responsive to any questions that we had. I highly recommend the property to anyone traveling with family, friends, or even just a couples' getaway.

Beautiful property and house for our family trip. Extremely conveniently located close to downtown Mystic and Watch Hill, RI. Our kids loved playing in the yard and the quick drive to the Mystic Aquarium. Great food nearby as well. We will definitely be returning!
