My husband, daughter, and I had the most perfect, cozy winter weekend here. The house is full of charm, thoughtfully equipped with every amenity, and just minutes from New Prestonâs fantastic town, where we enjoyed chic shops and delicious food. We couldnât have asked for a more delightful stay!
The house was fantastic. My kids wanted to "move in" and stay forever. I loved the kitchen and primary bathroom. The whole house was charming and cozy. The hospitality was also phenomenal. We will be back! The hosts helped us feel welcome and warm.
Local host is a 25-year resident of Washington, CT. Thoughtfully restored, bringing a breath of fresh air to this locally adored New Preston property. Drawn to its charm, convenient location to all and garden for all seasons its renovation has been a labor of love.
