About the host
Hosted by Gillian Preston
Hi, I'm Gillian, and I live and work in Boston. I ride my bike everywhere, and love pilates, swimming, and reading a good book. Cooking for my family is one of my favorite things to do, so you will usually find me trying out a new recipe.
Why they chose this property
My time on Lake Christopher instantly relaxes me. The Bethel region offers everything from skiing, swimming, kayaking, boating and hiking. We are so fortunate to have this gem of an area in New England.
What makes this property unique
This property is sparking clean and offers top-of-the-line everything. Modern-day conveniences are located throughout, yet this place feels like home in a cozy and inviting way. I love the stunning views of nature when sitting on the back deck! This place stands out from the rest with unique lighting, thoughtful decor, and beautiful original artwork throughout.
