About the host
Hosted by Erika Hall
As a hospitality professional with over 20 years in the business, I have learned through experience how to be a great host and anticipate guest needs.
I've lived in the Southeastern CT area for decades and love great food, exploring, having fun, and knowing the insider secrets. I will share all of my best tips with you to try to help you have the best time here you possibly can have according to your interests. Whether you're looking for outdoor active adventure, quite relaxation, or cultural stimulation, I'll have lots of ideas.
As for food, I have a bunch of great suggestions for both casual and upscale dining. There are also plenty of not-so-good restaurants in the area. My goal is to steer you away from having a not-so-good meal at one of those.
As for me, when I'm not hosting guests, I love traveling, especially in foreign countries. I love having great food when I travel and getting a sense of a place from the perspective of the locals.
In my free time I kayak, go for long bicycle rides, practice yoga, and go to the beach. Watch Hill beach is just 30 minutes away and phenomenal.

Why they chose this property
This property is professionally run and inspected. We have an annual inspection by the town's fire marshall. Every guest bedroom has a direct exit to the outdoors as well as a fire extinguisher. There is a whole house generator which powers the entire property in the event of a power outage. Very few listings can offer this level of peace of mind for you and your family.
What makes this property unique
Taking care of the natural environment and living healthy are two passions of mine. I provide natural, mostly organic food and treats for my guests. I run the property as sustainably as I can, recycling, composting, using energy efficient products, and natural cleaners and bath amenities. It costs extra, but I feel good about running my business this way.
