Pet-friendly holiday rentals in West Hartford

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!

A lovely place to stay. Beautiful view of the animals and mountains. Host was nice and accommodating.

We stayed at South Quarter House for a week with our dogs while competing in a national agility event in the area. It was a great and quiet place to stay and rejuvenate before each day’s events.

Had a wonderful time at Granite ledge. Absolutely beautiful backyard. Very peaceful and comfortable. The bed was very comfortable and we slept like babies. Highly recommend and would definitely stay here again.

This was a great place. We were in town for a couple of days with our dogs (all the way from Alabama) and the neighborhood was perfect for dog walking and getting some rest. The place was pristine and and the host was excellent. We somehow got ourselves locked out one day and he got over within 10 minutes to help us get in. Will definitely stay here again!

We had an amazing stay at Peter’s home by Saint Clement’s Castle for our wedding weekend! From start to finish, Peter was an exceptional host—friendly, responsive, and incredibly flexible with the details of our stay, which helped make a busy and emotional weekend so much smoother. The home itself was spotless, modern, and thoughtfully maintained. Every room felt comfortable and inviting, and the clean, updated aesthetic made it the perfect place to relax between events and get ready for our big day. It truly felt like a peaceful retreat during a very special time in our lives. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience and would absolutely recommend Peter’s place to anyone visiting the area—especially for events at Saint Clement’s. Thank you again, Peter!

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 layout is definitely as it was in the photos. A little smaller than expected but very homely and comfortable. Grew on us and we felt very much at home. Place was very clean, John was very accessible and was swift in responses. I appreciate the details of the little things from the bathrooms to kitchen and bedrooms that made the house unique. Parking space was there, soaps for laundry, kitchen and bathrooms. It’s really nice we would definitely return. The downside was the mattresses probably needs replacing and would be good if there were televisions in the bedrooms. No other complaints location is nice. Just great.

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!

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!

Glenda was friendly and had great communication from Start to Finish. This was a nice location for a family fun weekend. Although the drive is close enough to stores if you need anything (target/stopnshop/bjs etc), the property is in a quiet and safe neighborhood. The yard is a great place to hang out and relax with the fire pit or have fun in the pool. And when the weather was crappy the pool table and hanging out in the basement den was nice. Everything in the house is labeled and easy to find. We enjoyed the space and would definitely recommend. Thanks again! 😊

Melissa and Geoff's place is in beautiful surroundings and well within a short drive to excellent restaurants, museums and outdoor activities. We were there during an especially rainy and cool period, but the apartment kept us toasty and warm after a day of dodging the raindrops. The king size bed was lovely and a white machine lulled us to sleep. The deck attached to the house was wonderful and when the weather looked as if the blue skies were here to stay, Melissa asked if we wanted dry cushions for the chairs- just a lovely thought. The gardens were just beginning to bloom and the property is spotless. We will definitely return to Sweet Dreams; the apartment was a pleasure to be in. Andrea and Ray

It's not a private space with a door that locks behind you, but it felt pretty private up on the top floor of that huge old house. The main room is enormous, with plenty of open space if you wanted to do yoga or whatever. The bedrooms are also a good size, and there was lots of space for my dog. It took a moment to get use to not having a sink in the "kitchen" area, but the bathroom sink is kitchen sink sized, and had everything you'd need to clean up breakfast dishes. All in all it was a good value for a place that was virtually private and had 2 bedrooms, AND allowed me to bring my dog.

We had an amazing stay! David was quick to respond with any questions I had and even came out to hook up the propane tank for the heated pool. I saw in previous reviews about the tricky driveway but David’s description of it is perfectly accurate and not any trouble, just a little steep but nothing super tricky to deal with! The house has a beautiful setup and view, very clean and so much space. Even though it was cold and rainy we had the most fun and peaceful stay at this home. The bride of the bachelorette group said she wants to book with David on her own just for another stay/get-a-way! Highly recommend this beautiful space!

We really enjoyed our time at Elizabeth Jane's place. The home is spacious and quaint, with nice furnishings, a tasteful colonial feel and easy access to downtown Litchfield and the Berkshires. The bucolic setting is lovely - scenic, relaxing and peaceful.

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

Great little spot. This rental has everything you need. Forget something-they got it. Very clean and modern with thoughtful touches. Had an extended stay here and extended for longer. 1 bedroom with loft that owner made into another bedroom for me. Loved it. Great deck, stunning lake view from all the windows. Owner very responsive to any needs. 100 percent recommend. Neighborhood lovely and quiet. Amazing respite.

Great host, clean & cozy place. Local to all freeways, spacious parking in the back with easy access entry. Nice neighborhood and plenty of lounging space with roomy bedrooms. Recommend more towels and a full length mirror in both rooms. Will definitely book again!

We love the Collinsville area and are very familiar with it as well. We love the walking trails, restaurants and especially the location which is close to our family. The parking and entry to the home was extremely convenient. The nice little touch was the basket of snacks that Tammy left.

Pleasant stay in a clean, cozy space. There is a bit of noise from traffic on the nearby road, but not a big issue for us. Would stay here again.

This was the perfect home base for our week exploring Connecticut and Massachusetts. It was a quiet location, comfortable and clean space. Close to everything we needed. Would definitely recommend!

We had a wonderful experience! We traveled to New Haven for a concert. It was only a 15 minute drive from the home. The Airbnb had everything we needed such as extra towels, snacks, and even a homemade candle, which smells lovely. Ryan was quick to respond and made sure we had everything. I would book with them again.

This was the PERFECT getaway pit stop for me and my family from a long day of driving. The host were fast, responsive, and helpful. If I am ever in the area again this will be my go to place.

Amazing cabin!! My third visit. Was there with friends for fishing and I love the cabin so much that I booked my anniversary weekend and my wife is also in love with the property. Relaxing Birding Fishing Kayaking Fire pit Romantic This place has it all! Book it now! You won’t regret it!
