Serenity on the sound
Great location, great view of the water, peace and quiet, no sand or salt spray, the house felt like a home. Best equipped kitchen in a beach house ever. I would have no reservations about taking this property again. Just a suggestion for the future, the bathrooms and water pressure could be improved. Not a show stopper considering how wonderful everything else was.

Great stay on the island
Scott's sound front house was a great blend between sound and ocean. I was supprised with how well the kitchen was supplied. It had plenty of dishes, silverware, glasses and pots/pans. I think the only appliance missing was a blender. The rooms were nice, but a little cozy for 8 adults. A/C worked well. The dock and views were amazing. The walk to the beach was one of the shortest and easiest. If you are looking for a comfortable, layed back place to engoy the sound and surf, this is the place to be.

Little piece of paradise
Our family had a blast and made so many wonderful memories at Briggadune. We were shocked how accessible it was to the beach. The views of the water way were incredible. We really enjoyed sitting on the deck and rocking on the rocking chairs at night to watch the sunset. We also loved watching the fish jump out of the water right from the dock. The kitchen was stocked with everything (pots,pans,air fryer, microwave,toaster, cookie sheets,etc,). Our kids already asking when we come back

Amazing Views - Great House
Wow! I go to the beach with family most summers and this was our favorite house. The house is on the sound with stunning views from the living and dining room. We cook all our meals and were happy with the kitchen equipment. The house is older with expected wear and charm, but everything worked well. The air conditioning was great. We played many board games, went kayaking on the sound and walked the few blocks to the beach. We are already talking about coming back next year.

Family Vacation
We really enjoyed our time at the house. It was clean and had a great view of the sound. The beach was a very easy walk across the street. Our grown boys enjoyed fishing on the pier and we enjoyed watching from the porch rocking in the chairs. Thank you letting us spend some time at your house.

Nice place to stay! The outdoor shower is awesome and so is the pier, and having a very short walk to the beach is a plus!

We'll be back!
Briggadune is our favorite place to stay at EI. It is in a perfect location on the sound in a quiet neighborhood with an easy short walk to the beach. Really enjoyed the swimming, crabbing and star gazing from the pier! Hoping for steps into the water again. Wonderful view from the rocking chairs on the spacious deck. Home/kitchen was well equipped with everything we needed. Great addition is the outside shower. We never showered inside!! Communication with Scott was great, very helpful and available for any questions. Perfect place to relax and enjoy the beach. We will come again!!

Hidden gem!
A wonderful property with beautiful waterfront views of the Sound and a close proximity to the ocean. Lots of space on the decks and a great little sitting area at the end of the dock. A secluded neighborhood that was so peaceful. We listened to the water at night and it lulled us to sleep. This place is even better equipped than noted in the listing. You do have to bring your own sheets and towels though. We had a great time and wonderful weather!

Great Home Space
Briggadune was an awesome home to rent. We really enjoyed the location and sights from the decks. This home had everything we would've wanted or needed to be comfortable. Beautiful view of the sunrise and sunset, the pier on the sound was amazing to deep our feet in on hot days, very short walk to beach. We will be revisiting the house in the future if still available.
