This is one of our favorite places to stay when we're in Connecticut no question about it. The…read morelocation is perfect, so perfect you can ride a bicycle to the beach. I wouldn't say close enough to walk, especially if you are bringing chairs, coolers, food, etc. You are within minutes drive to restaurants, gas stations, grocery stores, etc for all your shopping needs. Beech Tree also has a little shop that have some drinks, trinkets, clothes, decor, etc. that my fiance says is adorable, cute, etc. If you love going to the beach and want to stay at a place owned by some nice people rather than some big corporately owned motel/hotel with no personality or character, check this place out! You won't be disappointed. We haven't, we're planning our 4th trip back here hopefully sooner than later!

Fantastic stay at this bed and breakfast. We came to the coast for just a couple days to see the…read moreWhitfield house in Guilford and, weather permitting, to enjoy a day in the beach. The room is very comfortable and airy with windows on two walls, and quiet. The bed is very comfortable with nice feeling sheets resulting in a restful sleep both nights. The bathroom is well lit and has a walk in shower, with fantastic water pressure. The proprietor, Victoria, is exceedingly friendly as well as a wealth of information about the local area including where to eat. I found her descriptions and recommendations to be spot on. Breakfast is elegant. It is casual for the guest, but the table is nicely set and the food is freshly made and delectable. The weather was great during our stay so we got to enjoy a day at the beach. There are beach chairs and beach blankets available to borrow, as well as a parking pass for the Madison beaches. Victoria has really made it easy to enjoy Madison and makes you feel at home. I found everything to be in close proximity. The historical sites in Guilford are about 5 miles and the Madison beaches about 1 mile, and the on-ramp to I-95 is about 1 mile.

This quaint B&B is located only a short distance from downtown madison, easily a walkable distance in the summer. All in all I would HIGHLY recommend this place to anyone looking for a cozy getaway

Complementary water in our room and comfy robes. We had a balcony view of the sound that was breathtaking. Mathew at the front desk was welcoming upon arrival and took the time to get to know guests. He was always helpful when we had a question and took his time with us. Never made us feel like we were unimportant. The grounds were well maintained and kept up. Always saw staff maintaining the property. The property had a small private beach with overlook to rocky bluff. The hotel also has spa services for those who want to indulge in a facial or massage. On select Fridays the restaurant has a wine tasting and Al's hosts larger events. Lunch and dinner we sat outside on the covered patio with a beautiful view of the sound. Sydney was friendly and accommodating at dinner. The manager Anthony took good care of us at dinner for substitutions due to food intolerances. The food was excellent we had the short rib and steak frits with a beautifully paired Bordeaux. Lunch we had the crab cakes, house salad and smash burger. Our stay was just what we needed to relax and unwind. A definite revisit in the future.

They did put snacks and drinks out for people to have during the day, which was a nice touch. The place was easy to find and they offered free bicycles to use. There were beach towels and things. You could use the fire pit and corn hole too. They also offered free kayak use down the street. No shortage of things to do.

The floors were so filthy, the bathmat turned black after showering and stepping off it, then back on it. BLACK. There was one dim lamp, a blurry TV, a lock on the door that could be popped by a teenager (to the point we wouldn't leave our stuff in the room when we left). Oh, speaking of the shower - I also enjoyed it running out of hot water mid-way though mine. They did not have the basic amenity of a hair dryer, and the first time I used the toilet (nothing exceptional), it overflowed... and they gestured toward a plunger when my boyfriend went to the office for help. Well, at least there was a prayer covered shower curtain... a sign you'll need God to look after you if you stay in this dump that should be condemned. On top of it all, as we were trying to get ready to leave - not that we wanted to stay any longer than we had to - we received a rude call at 10:40 am telling us we needed to leave by 11am. We were aware. And were certainly not looking to stay any longer. Beware.
