Welcome to Wayland Island, also known as Little Pumpkin, a private island oasis located just off the coast of Branford, Connecticut. With only a short water taxi ride from the mainland, you'll arrive at your own exclusive boat basin and step onto a truly secluded retreat. Surrounded by the natural beauty of Long Island Sound, this one-of-a-kind island offers privacy, tranquility, and breathtaking waterfront views. Unplug, disconnect, and unwind with all the nature that surrounds you-whether it's fishing, sailing, swimming, or simply finding your favorite lounge chair and soaking it all in. The Thimble Islands are one of the best-kept secrets on the East Coast, offering a lifestyle sought after by many but realized by few. Wayland Island features three charming homes, making it the perfect setting for a family compound or a legacy retreat to be enjoyed for generations.
