About this property
Bright & Cheerful Coastal Cottage for Multi-week & Monthly Stays
Available for multi-week & monthly stays from January through April, this charming, light-filled and pet-friendly cottage is steps away from the Niantic River estuary and has gorgeous sunset views.
Set up for remote work as well as pleasure during the "off" season. There is a cozy electric fireplace and a lovely, south facing sunroom, with windows on three sides that offers relaxing sunshine even on the coldest day.
A fully-equipped and renovated kitchen with gas range, dishwasher, microwave, toaster, and oven is made for cooking and eating. For grill-lovers there is a gas grill next to the deck at the back of the garage, with a prep/serving table, and screened gazebo for enjoying the yard mosquito-free. Or, take a five minute drive to one of the local restaurants in Niantic for fresh seafood, Indian cuisine, sushi, pizza, bakery, local/organic food, pub fare, and a brewery.
There are two cottage-sized bedrooms upstairs (Double and King) and a small flexible room with TV and twin trundle bed. Both the upstairs and downstairs bathrooms have showers (tub upstairs) and there is a washer and dryer in the kitchen.
If you feel like staying inside, relax on the chaise with a good book or sprawl on the comfy couch and stream your guilty pleasure on the flat screen TV. If you are looking for outdoor adventure there are nearby beaches and parks.
Included in your stay: Wi-Fi, linens, towels, soap, shampoo/conditioner, hair dryer (upstairs cupboard) bug repellent, sunscreen, beach towels, beach bags, camp/beach chairs, household items, first-aid kit, fire extinguisher, and back up supplies (toothpaste/toothbrush, razors, shaving cream, deodorant, umbrella, etc.)
Not as crowded as Mystic and with many options for activities, the Cottage on Wood is a wonderful choice for your home-away-from-home work/vacation combo. Welcome!

This was a wonderful place for a group of friends for a reunion! So well appointed it had everything we needed and the swimming area at the end of the road was delightful!
My family and I really enjoyed our stay in this beautiful cottage. The cottage was cozy, comfortable and clean. It’s such a peaceful place. The cottage is set up for a very relaxing experience. I would definitely stay here again!
This cottage was so lovely and so close to parks and beaches! The neighborhood is quiet and everyone was so welcoming and friendly. Thank you so much to the owners! We had a great time!😊
We stayed at Cat’s house for about half a week and it was just as we expected! The small front room was perfect for my toddler to sleep. The house had everything we needed, was in a great location and Cat was super easy to communicate with. We loved our stay and will be back if we are heading to CT again!
The cottage was fantastic, great location and plenty of room for our family. The back outside patio was delightful to enjoy coffee in the morning and drinks in the afternoon ! A short walk down the road brings you to the water. Nice for a swim or to splash around. Watching the boats was great.
Everything was great! The only challenge was it was the kitchen so well stocked it was hard to fit the stuff we brought. It was great to be able to walk to the end of the road and launch our SUP and the Kayak that was there to see a beautiful sunset on the river.
Perfect location near the water in Waterford. Close proximity to Main Street in Niantic and the amenities of New London and Mystic. Very responsive host. Easy check in. Clean home. Would love to return for more time!
We stayed here over Easter while visiting our son at the Coast Guard Academy. After staying in New London multiple time, it was really nice to explore Niantic. The house was so cozy and very well stocked. We enjoyed sitting by the firepit. The beach at the end of the road was a quick walk, and my kids loved using the scooter and bikes that were available. Host was receptive and accommodating. Would definitely stay here again!
Cozy, cool, well equipped, comfortable king bed in master, larger home than expected, long yard, beautiful community dock and views. We all enjoyed our stay even Belle our little Boston Terrier. Merci! ( Bouchard family from Montreal)
We just loved our time . Beautiful back yard with plenty of places to relax. I loved the screened in eating socializing area . The house is well stocked , clean and located down the street from beautiful Niantic River . We will be back
We had a wonderful time at out rental, thank you Cate! The house is clean and comfortable in a great location. We highly recommend this house and Cate. Communication was perfect. Thank you.
This is a really cute house in a great area. It is a two minute walk down the street to see the Niantic River. You can sit there for hours just watching the boats go by. Very quiet with beautiful sunsets. Also a five minute drive to the cute town of Niantic full of restaurants and shops. The house itself has a fully stocked kitchen, very clean, multiple indoor seating/ relaxing areas and a backyard with comfy chairs for a nap. Great communication with the owner.
This quaint cottage in a lovely and friendly neighborhood is a gem! Not only was it very clean and comfortable all necessities were there for your convenience! The only thing I think that was missing was a heads up that there are very steep stairs to the second floor and as Seniors it was a llittle difficult to manage. We would highly recommend to young couples and families.
We loved our stay at Cottage on Wood. Cate was a wonderful, communicative host. The house was perfect for our group of six - we took advantage of games and activities in the house, enjoyed relaxing in the front room which got lots of sunshine, and spent time in the spacious backyard. Rooms were cool and beds super comfortable. Everything was clean and accessible. The location was excellent and we loved the 2 minute drive to the boardwalk where we enjoyed lots of restaurants and local attractions; a 20 minute drive to Mystic and the casino which we also took advantage of. A fabulous week and would stay again!
This home is exactly as described-nice quiet neighborhood,near center of town and a small private beach area to use. Catherine was very easy to contact if the need arose and very personable. I have stayed in many rentals and this was the best stocked house I have ever been in!
Nice back deck and very large back yard with access to bikes and watercraft.
The only con is if you have mobility issues the stairs to the bedrooms are a bit narrow
Would definitely recommend Thanks Cate for a nice relaxing week.
Perfect for our annual family stay! We only needed the property for sleeping accommodations and it did just that. Super cute and clean. Close to town and the water.
We had 6 of us in our party and loved it. The house is very well shocked. We only needed to buy groceries. The location is great. We really enjoyed our time there.
The cottage was great and just what we expected. There was plenty of room for our family to spread out and be together. Kitchen was well stocked. They had a great selection of things to do in the house. The location was amazing.
10/10 outstanding space, true to the listing, and one of the most hospitable hosts we have ever worked with. Thank You Cat, you made our trip so memorable.
