Private Island Retreat – Luxe Canfield Island Escape (Westport, CT)

3 BR | 2.5 BA | Sleeps 6 | 3,131 Sq Ft

Private Gated Island | Cove + Long Island Sound Views | Spa Amenities



Welcome to a rare opportunity to stay in one of Westport's most exclusive and serene private residences — a refined, design-forward home located on the secluded and gated Canfield Island.



This is not your average rental. It’s a private residence, lovingly curated and maintained, and now selectively offered for guests seeking a truly special stay. The homeowner is delighted to share their home for a few select dates each month — think of it as an exclusive invitation, not just a booking. Because of this, the calendar may show limited availability and we do not accept last-minute bookings (notice required).
