About the host
Hosted by Jessica Parylak
For years, our family has gathered here on the water to celebrate everything summer brings: sunshine, river days, laughter, and the simple joy of being together. It’s a place where memories are made year after year — early morning on the deck, long afternoons in the sun, and evenings filled with stories and connection.
For 50 years, Lee and Susan made their home in Hamilton, NY, cherishing their summer house as their family retreat. In recent years, they’ve been fortunate to reside there full-time, deepening their connection to this special place and the rhythms of waterfront life.
What makes the Westport cottage truly special isn’t just its location — it’s the generations of love, tradition, and togetherness woven into it. We’re so excited to share this meaningful place with you and hope you’ll feel the same warmth, joy, and sense of belonging that our family has treasured for so many years.
