Pet-friendly holiday rentals in Branford

This is our second visit in the Recycle House. It’s such a lovely oasis. We love all the unique touches and creative uses of materials throughout the house. The location just steps from the charming town of Chester could not be better. The perfect CT weekend getaway!

This house is a gem! I came to stay a week in off season with my dog, Rollo. The location is breathtaking, right on the Long Island Sound. We had a great time exploring the beach, looking for all the biodiversity in the birds and sea creatures, watching the boats, and this place is relatively close to an airport so watching the planes land and take off was awsome as well. We came for privacy, and I expected the beach to be a little more private than it was due to my dog's reactivity. But the neighbors did not seem to have issues with us, and once you are close to the water, especially in low tide, the beach is pretty open for all the locals. Walking around, the locals all waved and said hello. Not too many restaurants close by, but the Lobster Shack down the road had good food! Would stay again! The deck alone was worth it!

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ A Perfect Stay! From the moment we arrived, we felt completely at home. The space was sparkling clean. The host was incredibly responsive, kind, and made check-in a breeze. The location was ideal—peaceful and quiet, yet close to everything we wanted to explore. After long days out, it was so relaxing to return to such a cozy and comfortable space. We truly didn’t want to leave! Highly recommend this Airbnb to anyone looking for a restful, welcoming, and seamless experience.

We loved Laura and Dana’s Big Easy home by the beach. It was big and comfortable and every detail had been thought about to maximize our enjoyment. Drawers and closets and cabinets were all labeled so we didn’t have to search for anything or guess where anything was. Literally every need had been anticipated! Amazing. The beds and bedding and linens and towels were abundant and soft and comfortable. The kitchen amenities were awesome, from an air fryer, to a full set of bar tools and blender, to great appliances. The decor was happy and cheerful and creative and fun. There were so many places to sit and enjoy, both inside and out. Do not hesitate to choose this wonderful place for a visit of any length. You will love it!

We had a marvelous stay with our friends and dogs. The location and grounds were perfect for getting to our daytime event and the Dragonfly Garden was serene for relaxing in the evening enjoying tasty delivered dinners. Thanks, Todd. We will definitely stay there again when we are in the area!

Great location, private and comfortable. Close to wineries and breweries. Very clean and convenient. I highly recommend.

A wonderful little house with a great location - right next to east rock if you want a walk and a stone’s throw from east rock market for coffee and restaurants and Mactivity for a gym!

Betsy's cabin was fantastic. It is even more charming in real life than in the photos. The directions getting there were perfect, the cabin was super clean, and Betsy had left snacks and water for us and for our dogs. We were in town for a family event, but did take some time to explore. We ate at the Oxford House, which had a patio that allowed our dogs to go with us. We had great hikes at Southford Falls State Park and Kettletown State Park (if you're from out of state, you have to pay a fee to enter Kettlewood). It was a quick trip; Betsy's cabin was a great spot for us to make home for 2 nights.

The pool house was cozy and clean and the bed was comfy. John gave us restaurant suggestions and when the TV acted up, they were immediately out there to fix it. It was a quick trip but it would be nice to stay longer to appreciate this hidden gem!

Beautiful home, very clean, spacious and comfortable to stay with the family. We used the grill on multiple occasions and it was easy to use. The fire pitt was also enjoyable. The kitchen was well stocked, would bring own source of caffeine if you’re picky with your coffee though. Stephen, the host was very responsive and easy to reach when asked questions. The one thing I would recommend is to check in with the host if the pool is available to use prior to booking. Overall a great experience, would stay with them again.

The pool house is so cute and the outdoor patio is gorgeous and the perfect place to relax. Great place to stay if you want to stay near New Haven but also want to enjoy quiet away from the city. Sue is a responsive and very generous host!

We had the most beautiful weekend stay at Tim’s home! Everything is accurately described and the pool and hot tub were amazing!! All the beds were very comfortable. Was perfect for a 5 girl weekend getaway!! Tim was incredibly communicative and checking in was a breeze. The location is PERFECT in East Hampton!! So many amazing restaurants and bars nearby. 100% will stay here again for my next Hamptons trip. Thank you so much Tim!!

Our family of 5 and pup had the best time on this gorgeous property! The photos do not do the artful design justice, it’s simply stunning and so thoughtful. Our kids swam ever day and loved the pool. We enjoyed Grace Farms, Prospect Movie Thester and a lovely Father’s Day meal at the Inn at Pound Ridge. The kitchen is incredibly well stocked for someone who likes to cook and DoorDash was also easy to use when we didn’t feel like cooking. We will definitely be back! Thank you, RJ and John!

We we’re going to Port Jefferson for a family wedding. Our Airbnb was perfectly situated. There is a pool area that we never used because we just didn’t have time. But it looked very inviting. The town of Port Jefferson had plenty of nice restaurants and shops. This house was perfect for our situation. We had six adults, all family members.

The house was perfect for my family. I loved the convenience of the one-floor layout and way it allows views of the pool and deck from the almost everywhere so we could enjoy it even when the weather didn't cooperate and we couldn't swim. The family /living room was comfortable and great for relaxing or watching a film. The lower level playroom was great fun with ping pong and billiards set up in two areas. We found everything we needed including electric outlets where you need them. The location was great for us and our rides to Montauk and the other towns in the area for museums and restaurants and views. The only thing less than perfect was low water pressure in the master bath sinks and shower, which Abigail said the plumber was addressing. She was extremely responsive and helpful.

Alice’s place was great! We’ll be back again for sure.

Immaculate space. Comfy couch and bed. Soft linens. Easy check in. Nice, historic neighborhood. Highly recommend!

Tracy's spot was as advertised . . . great location, walkable to restaurants, and well appointed. Definitely worth a stay!

This place is one I highly recommend when visiting this area. Everything was amazing and the host is very respectful of the space. I will definitely be booking this place again.

Vicky and Peter's little barn apartment was perfectly located for us, close to the beach and we so enjoyed their well landscaped and beautiful property, the birds in the trees and views out the window. The furniture and bed were comfortable and kitchen had all that we needed. They thoughtfully left us a six pack of nice water in the fridge and a pretty little bouquet of her garden flowers on the table. Vicky was friendly and gracious when we saw her in her yard and ready to assist if we needed any thing. They also made the effort to move patio furniture to a location for our use. I would definitely recommend Vicky and Peter's airbnb for others.

We were gathered from around the country for my Mother s Memorial. It was such a pleasure to stay in such a peaceful environment, as emotions were high. It was healing. Beautiful home, and all directions were clear. If it had been a little later in the Spring and the weather warmer, it would have been even better. I highly encourage anyone to stay and enjoy what the area has to offer in Gregory's beautiful home. You will have a wonderful vacation!

Great spot super close to everything we needed to go to. It was so cozy that we ended up sleeping through a bunch of our plans 😂 appreciate having pet friendly places like this since we like to travel with our pups. It was clean and quiet for being attached to another residence.

I booked the stay at the last minute, and Jonathan was incredibly kind and quick to respond, which I truly appreciated. From the moment we arrived, we felt welcomed and at ease. His place is absolutely lovely.... quiet, safe, and spotless. Everything was so clean and fresh, and I especially loved the soft, pleasant scent in the room. It gave such a cozy and relaxing feeling. The view from the room was beautiful and peaceful—one of those little details that makes a big difference. I honestly wish we had more time to enjoy everything the space had to offer, but we were only in New Haven briefly for a friend’s wedding. The bed was incredibly comfortable—so much so that I fell asleep right away and woke up feeling completely rested. Every detail, from the cleanliness to the quiet atmosphere, made our short stay feel truly special. Thank you, Jonathan, for going above and beyond and making this a wonderful experience!

Wonder cottage in a fabulous town. Stacey is responsive and charming hostess and her snack basket is 5 star. Lovely stay
