Welcome to Gray Rock, your own private island retreat! Also known as East Stooping Bush Island, Gray Rock is situated in the Thimble Islands archipelago near Stony Creek in Branford, Connecticut. Among the 23 inhabited islands in this picturesque group, Gray Rock stands out as a remarkable destination with only one seasonal residence, a charming stone and shingle-style home built in 1900. Perched atop a granite outcrop, it offers breathtaking 360-degree views of the surrounding islands, the Connecticut coast to the north, Long Island to the south, mesmerizing sunrises and sunsets and a variety of shore birds in all directions. Gray Rock features an abundance of walkways, decks, patios, covered and open porches nestled among stone pillars. With 5 bedrooms it provides the perfect haven for family and friends to enjoy summer sun, gentle breezes, swimming, sailing, and fishing in Long Island Sound. Step inside and be enchanted by the turn-of-the-century woodwork, spacious rooms, and a magnificent granite fireplace that sets the stage for evening get-togethers, storytelling, and lively card and board games. This exclusive retreat, accessible by boat or the seasonal passenger ferry from the mainland, is located just 2 to 2.5 hours from both New York City and Boston, whether you choose to travel by train or car. Escape to Gray Rock and experience the unparalleled beauty of your own private island getaway.
