This amazing beachfront home has one of the best private beaches in southeastern Connecticut. The sand is terrific, it squishes between your toes and feels soft and conforming with every step! Seldom crowded by the few who share beach rights the views are amazing and less than 1 mile away you have a perfect view of Duck Island. Once you pull yourself away from the beach you are sure to fall in love with this amazing home. With 4 bedrooms and 2 full baths, it easily accommodates 9 guests
The Space:
Welcome to Duckling Crossing. Most female ducks hatch five ducklings. Since we have five children, as they were growing up, we always referred to them as our little “ducklings”. We still do! Even though some of our little ducklings have ducklings of their own now. Coincidentally, Duck Island is right out our window and their are plenty of ducks that love to swim in the beautiful waters. Duckling Crossing seems like the perfect name for our beach home. Come and see for yourself.
The Space:
The home has four bedrooms with two bathrooms and a large private beach & entertainment space inside and out. Inside has updated appliances and brand-new furnishings to match this completely remodeled home. Bedrooms on the second floor accompany a full bath, and washer and dryer for your convenience. Downstairs is a living area with comfy seating to relax, a dining room table for 8 plus two additional stools tucked under the island, and a modern kitchen. Outdoors features a seating area with an outdoor gas grill provided for grilling, and the beach, did we mention the beach?

Family beach weekend
We were comfortable in the very clean, air conditioned beautifully decorated house. Having the beach outside our door provided the beach experience I wanted for my grandchildren. We appreciate every thought that went into every detail. Thank you for the place to have a meaningful family reunion for all.

Adult Family Getaway
I looked for a pet-friendly space on the water for a relaxed weekend. This turned out to be a perfect spot. We enjoyed the seawall, yard, beach, and the sandbar. The house was clean, beds were comfy, and we had everything we needed. A very quiet neighborhood. I also enjoyed driving through Essex and Old Saybrook. The admin was very responsive and helpful. Recommend!

Duck Crossing was EVERYTHING it promised to be and more!! Pictures did not do justice to the view we were blessed by every minute of our trip! Whether we were Sharing a meal at the dining room table, chatting in the comfy living room, sitting on the provided beach chairs on the lawn or walking the beach at sunrise and sunset, all was done with the breathtaking back drop of the beach dunes, rolling waves, and picturesque Atlantic Ocean sights. It was the perfect setting for our college reunion getaway! Also plenty of dining and shopping options within easy, quick driving distance (Sunday Brunch at Water's Edge a MUST!!!). The home is beautiful, modern yet cozy, clean and well appointed! SO GLAD we found you! We will be SURE to be back!!!

PLace was amazing.. Exceptional clean and painting new.Hits: Umbrellas, should be a 10X 20 pop up in grilling area, we brought our own 10x10.Stairs a bit narrow. Stair cut-away in front of washer/dryer dangerous, we put a bench in front of opening. There should be a front porch for chairs and grill {which needs to be cleaned !!} Our granchildren had a great time determining who gets which bunk bed...... Thanks. Shef and Lee
