Why they chose this property
Our deep-rooted love for nature and the great outdoors led us to the charming town of Weston, CT, a true hiker's paradise that we've been proud to call home for the past 14 years. Nestled along the banks of the famous Saugatuck River, our neighborhood offers an idyllic setting that merges the tranquil beauty of nature with the warmth of a tight-knit community.
Each morning, we're greeted by the gentle sounds of the river, a peaceful backdrop setting the day's tone. The area is laced with numerous trails and scenic paths that beckon to be explored, each offering its unique view of Connecticut's lush landscapes. Whether it's the vibrant hues of fall, the serene snowscapes of winter, the bloom of spring, or the lush greenery of summer, the changing seasons add a dynamic beauty that never ceases to amaze.
What we enjoy most about our neighborhood is the sense of escape it offers from the hustle and bustle of daily life. The proximity to nature trails and the river means adventure is always just a few steps away. It's not uncommon to find us embarking on impromptu hiking adventures or simply enjoying the tranquility of the riverbank, where life seems to slow down just enough to appreciate the moment.
This connection to nature, combined with Weston's friendly faces and community spirit, makes it more than just a place to live—it's a place to thrive, connect, and rejuvenate. It's this unique blend of natural beauty, community, and adventure right at our doorstep that we love sharing with our guests, offering them a slice of our paradise.
