| We rented this cottage for 2 weeks in July 2009. The location and place was just what we needed. The house in clean and spacious. We entertained friends and family without feeling crowded. Would definitely consider renting from the Ditter's again. Thanks for one of the most relaxing vacations in quite a few years. |

| We really enjoyed our stay in your house. It was a close walk to the beach and the house had everything that we needed, including games for the kids to play. The owners were very accomodating and pleasant to deal with. |

| The stay at the house was everything I could ask for. I am a cadet at the United States Coast Guard Academy, and the academy was hosting a formal on one weekend. Myself, three other cadets, and our dates were able to stay at the house for a night without any trouble. The house was comfortable and hospitable, and the beach is right around the corner. The transactions were quick and easy, and contact with the owner was efficient. I plan on renting the house again in the future! |

The owners where a charm to speak with and were very trust worthy. I will definatly be coming back to rent this home again. |

| We enjoyed our stay tremendously. The house is very clean and neat and has everything/anything you may need. We had a group of 8 and the house was more than spacious enough. We will keep the Dittner's in mind if we rent on the CT shoreline again! |

| Renting this house was a huge success! The pictures of the house do not do it justice; the house was even cozy and was in great shape. The private beaches close by are more than you could ask for. The house is located in a very welcoming neighborhood and for the area, you could not ask for more value for your dollar. I plan on using the Dittners again if I'm ever in the market. Thank you Mr. and Mrs Dittner. |

| It’s a two minute walk to the beach from this house in this beautiful town. This was a clean, spacious house with all the amenities. The owners are very nice and were very helpful not only with the renting process, but with information on the sights and sounds of Niantic and the surrounding areas. I highly recommend this house for your spring, summer, or fall vacation. |

| The house worked out perfectly for our two-family group. It was very well equipped and the yard was great for the kids. With the beach, snack bar, playground and park all within an easy and scenic walk, the kids had a full week of non-stop old-fashioned fun. Thanks for everything and making our week at the beach as easy and enjoyable as possible. |

| Our family found your house to be very comfortable for our stay in Naintic. There was plenty of room for our group of six adults plus a four year old. The house was immaculate and stocked with everything we needed. It was wonderful to have a dishwasher and washer and dryer. The beds were nice and firm making them very comfortable. We enjoyed grilling, eating and playing in the back yard. We had three cars and there was plenty of room to park them without blocking anyone. The beach was just a short walk. We enjoyed every minute of our stay. |

I'm from NY and have friends from Mass. My son and I and her, her husband, teenager daughter and friend, and college-bound son stayed in this charming home. It was clean and comfortable, a quick stroll to the beach, and near plenty of ice cream places (near and dear to my 5yo's heart). Even though it rained for most of the week we were there, the area had plenty to keep us entertained. Plus, with a mixture of good restaurants and grilling,we were well fed for the week. I'd definitely revisit and stay at this lovely house.

Our stay at the Dittner's home was wonderful. The home was perfect for four adults and four children. There was enough space and the house was comfortable and clean. It was equipped with everything you would need.
The beach was clean and the children enjoyed swimming out to the dock.
We would recommend the Dittner's as your host and we would rent their home again. The Dittners are extremely pleasant and wonderful people. It was a pleasure meeting them.
PS. Eleni's restaurant was delicious, thanks for the recommendation. Eric, their homemade chocolate chip cookies rock! I did enjoy the egg plant. Thanks |

| The house was very clean, with firm beds, a big gas grill, and a very well-equipped kitchen--even a blender--which made eating and sleeping (our favorite vacation activities) very pleasant indeed. A great location--just a stroll to the beach, and to the end of the boardwalk; and a pleasant walk to downtown. Recommend highly. |

| We loved your house. We had a packed house and still the house seemed big enough where we were not crowded. The beds were extemely comfortable. It had all the essentials that you needed. The location was great -close to the beach and other touring sites. We highly recommend this house. |

| Our family of 2 adults, 2 teenagers and one preteen stayed at the house in August, 2005. The house was immacuately clean, and had enough space for each of the kids to have their own bedroom. Fans are provided in each bedroom and the kitchen, plus there is a whole house fan to cool off the house at night. The house is only a three minute walk to the beach. All kitchen utensils and dishware are supplied. We also appreciate that there was a washer and dryer for us to do laundry while at the house. The house is also decorated very nicely with a lighthouse motif theme. We enjoyed our stay very much and will probably come back to stay there again at some point. |

We found the house to be exactly as advertised; no surprises. It was very clean. The Dittners met us at the house. They are very pleasant. We had a very nice time, the beach is a very easy walk; good to know when you are carrying all of your stuff.
The one thing that the house does not have is air conditioning. There is an attic fan, and fans in every room though. Therefore it is only uncomfortable when it is very hot and humid.
We had a very nice time and would recommend this house to anyone.

| This house was perfectly suited to our small family reunion--us, 3 kids, 2 spouses, 2 grandbabies & great-grandma. The decor is charming and the location was excellent for our excursions. There was space for all of us around the kitchen table, and we liked the outdoor cooking & eating options as well. The Dittners have done a great job of providing amenities for their guests. |

| I just wanted to share what a wonderful house this is and how it accomodated our family perfectly. Not only did we receive it clean but we were welcomed by a sister in Christ whos graciousness helped us feel comfortable and safe in an unknown area, and that meant alot to us! This home is in a great location for all that the area has to offer. The private beach was that much more enjoyable knowing that it would not get too crowded and is in walking distance. We are hoping to rent ths wonderful place again next year! |

| My family & I enjoyed our stay at your lovely home. It had the perfect set-up for the 3 generations in our group. We found it to be immaculately clean and well-stocked with everything from cooking utensils to games & videos. We are looking forward to returning in 2005 for another relaxing vacation. Thanks! |
