I've stayed at a lot of small inns and B & B's in my life, and the Scranton Seahorse Inn is one of the very best, clean, comfortable, beautifully decorated, and welcoming. Michael, the host, made me feel right at home and did everything possible to make my stay enjoyable. Breakfast was delicious. The inn is conveniently located within walking distance of a couple of very good restaurants and within a very short drive of the beaches and other local attractions, perfect for either a short getaway or a longer vacation.

The host/owner Michael is a wonderful host. Other reviewers have complimented the breakfast he prepares...they did not exaggerate. The breakfasts are healthy, delicious, innovative, fresh...outstanding.

Our room, #8, is large, clean, has its own private entrance, and a great new shower.

This B&B is located in downtown Madison in a walkable area. The house is a large, charming building constructed in 1833.

Excellent accomodations.

Breakfast included

We came from our wedding to spend the night. The next morning when I went for breakfast, I was informed that I should have responded to a text or email confirming our desire for food. This was brought to my attention in front of other guests which made me feel awkward. Totally inappropriate. I chose not to stay and eat. The booking description clearly stated breakfast included. And I checked my email and text and never received that message. Should I have to, coming from my wedding? Which I told the operator about when confirming the check-in procedure prior to arrival. Overall, neutral experience. The room was big and spacious and the had a patio which would be nice in a different time of year. It was the lack of hospitality that has turned me off.

A Gem of an inn, in a Gem of a Town

My husband and I have been staying with Michael at the Scranton Seahorse Inn since 2013. Since that time, we've developed a friendship with innkeeper Michael (and his dogs Cash and Theo), who always makes us feel at home when we visit.



We stayed in the first floor room, the Madison Getaway, this last visit, and it was SPECTACULAR. Between the giant Jacuzzi, and the working fireplace, plus the private porch, we were comfortable and relaxed for our anniversary weekend.



We brought a bag of our local farm CSA items for Michael, and he used them at breakfast each day. His breakfasts are unlike anything you'll find anywhere else--things like an egg roulade stuffed with butternut squash and leeks, or a market frittata with spinach, roasted parsnips and an heirloom tomato salad. I cannot say enough good things.



To say we enjoyed our stay is a true understatement. Michael consistently goes out of his way to ensure that every guest has their needs met, and has an unforgettable vacation.



The Scranton Seahorse Inn will always be our happy place.

This was a quaint historical inn set back from the main road so it was quiet at night. Nearby Essex is one of the prettiest small towns in New England & a place to visit while here.

Lovely old B&B in the village of Madison, Ct.

We arrived after a swim at the beach to be greeted by the affable innkeeper, who had been tending his vegetable garden. The beautiful 19th century inn is charming in a European way. Our room, which was comfortable, had the only direct access to a communal veranda decorated with wicker chairs and a table. So it was like having our own porch. We sat there and drank a glass of wine before walking to the small Bar Bouchee restaurant down the road to enjoy a really delicious French meal. The TV in the room was somewhat small and seemed to have access to only one channel (we are not techies), but who cares about TV when you have access to the beautiful village, the local beach and walks in Hammonasset State Park? The full breakfast featured a spinach frittata and tomatoes from the innkeeper's garden. It was a lovely mini-vacation. The inn is highly recommended!

Scranton Seahorse Inn

The Inn is beautiful with all its original detail and charm. Our host, Michael, was gracious and helpful. The location is outstanding if you want to enjoy the book store and coffee shops of Madison. The Sunday morning breakfast was superb!

Wish we had stayed longer....

I was in town for a company holiday party and found this lovely bed and breakfast to be charming and the breakfast was wonderfully delicious. Thank you to our host!! We truly enjoyed our night there... too bad we were not there a little longer. Very convenient to the thruway and a walk away to the village shops and restaurants.

Amazing B&B with Wonderful Service!

I enjoyed my stay here so much! I stayed in the Town View room. The bed was comfortable, I loved the jacuzzi tub in its own little room. Breakfast was delicious and plentiful. Michael the innkeeper was so hospitable~ welcoming me out at my car on arrival and helping me with my bags was such a pleasant surprise! He was very knowledgeable about the area, and kindly addressed all guest questions. The mini fridge on the main floor was a great idea, enabling us to store cold drinks in the summer. I loved the bike rentals on site, they were reasonable ($10) for the day and well maintained. I would definitely come here again!

Weekend get away !

Beautiful quint bed and breakfast in the heart of Madison Ct. The Inn is charming nicely decorated. Perfect for a weekend getaway, close to beach and town. Michael the innkeeper and chef is excellent. He offered a cheese plater that just hit the spot before going to dinner. Many 5 star restaurants in walking distance. Chef Michael breakfasts are very tasty and made with natural ingredients. We really enjoyed our selfs.

Loved it!

We absolutely loved our stay. Location was excellent for us and all that we wanted to do the week we were there. We even had extra location perks such as a nice little strip of unique shops right there, running trail, and shoreline was a walkable distance. Loved the room. The room was cozy, clean, and comfortable. The little extra touches through the Inn made for a fun and relaxing time when we weren?t out and about?movie library, books, games, bikes, and a wonderful outdoor sitting area. This made it very home like. Breakfast was delicious. Michael was an outstanding host making us feel very welcome and providing suggestions making the most out of our stay.

Rustic Charm near New Haven, CT

During our 2 day stay, we were greeted to old town feel in historic Madison. It was refreshing to take a late summer evening stroll down main street and stop for old fashioned hand scooped ice cream. Within a half a mile of this location, however, the town has a modest night life with comfortable bars that were not overly crowded and an inviting atmosphere.



Our room, aptly named The Madison, was alone on the ground floor of the home and we were free to move through all the common rooms with no disturbances providing a very private experience for my Fiancée and I. The room, itself, was decorated to give a classic look to the antique backdrop of the home. The Jacuzzi tub with rainfall shower was a focal point of our stay and set the mood for romance along with the soft lighting of the room.



Our breakfast for both days was prepared and served by Chef Michael while we ate and shared our experiences in the common dining room with other guest. The guest, who were more familiar with the New England area, was glad to give advice on sites to visit and things to do why we enjoy our 4 star breakfast.



We would close out each night with a nightcap of hot tea before turning down our sheets in our cozy queen bed and sleeping restfully without disturbance.



This B&B is top rate and provides the home feel away from home. We would gladly recommend this to any couple wishing to explore the New England area, as it is centrally located between NYC and Boston or two a couple trying to recapture their flame.
