Sail of the Century Stonington, Connecticut

Holiday Rental Description

Sitting on the edge of Mason's Island, this waterfront location doesn't just bring peaceful views of Fisher Island Sound – there's also a private beach plus a dock so you can fill your stay with swimming and watersports. If relaxing is more your bag, the large terrace has plenty of seating, plus an impressive outdoor kitchen for when dinnertime rolls around again.

Although it's an address in which it's easy to imagine countless carefree hours being spent in the open air, there's a lot to like about what lies within the home's four walls. Entertainment-wise, you don't need to worry if rain stops plays, as the games room with ping pong, foosball, air hockey and basketball is sure to keep guests of all ages distracted. Add to that a wealth of spaces in which to bring everybody together, from dining rooms next to large windows and living rooms with cosy fireplaces, and you've got a home that's ideal for big family gatherings that are talked about for years to come.

When it comes to filling up your itinerary, there's a nature reserve in the middle of the island with forests and a large salt marsh to explore. The typically New England town of Mystic is only three miles away if you're in the mood for museums and restaurants.
