About the host
Hosted by Karl Denton

As a full-time firefighter serving this community, hosting is a natural extension of what I enjoy most, helping people and taking pride in where I live and work. Willimantic is not just where I invest in real estate, it’s where I protect and serve the citizens every day.
I grew up in Connecticut and have always been hands-on, building, fixing, and creating spaces that feel like home. My real estate journey started right here because I believe in the small-town character of places like Willimantic — a city with a rich history, local pride, and a growing sense of revitalization.
When I’m not at the firehouse or managing properties, you’ll find me working on my next project, exploring outdoors, or spending time with friends and family. Hosting gives me the chance to welcome travelers into this community and give them a comfortable, clean, and reliable place to stay.
I take great pride in every property I offer and I’m always just a message away if there’s anything I can do to improve your stay.

Why they chose this property
We chose this location because it offers the perfect blend of small-town charm and convenience. Willimantic is known as Thread City, rich with mill history, local pride, and a growing food and brewery scene.
The home is just over the iconic Frog Bridge, making it easy to walk to Downtown Main Street where you’ll find local breweries, coffee shops, unique restaurants, and small businesses. The neighborhood is a mix of single-family homes with long-time residents and college students from ECSU nearby.
We love this area because it’s quiet at night but still central, you can be at UConn in under 15 minutes or exploring hiking trails within minutes from the house. It feels like a true New England town with everything you need close by, but without the crowds of a larger city.
Guests often tell us they love how easy it is to get around from here, whether it’s grabbing coffee downtown, hiking in Mansfield Hollow, or heading to Mohegan Sun for a night out.

What makes this property unique
Thread City Escape offers the best of both worlds, a fully updated home with modern amenities while still being walking distance to Willimantic’s historic Downtown and Main Street area. What sets this property apart is the attention to detail in creating a space that’s comfortable, functional, and ready for all types of guests — families, professionals, or college visitors.
The home blends modern touches like high-speed 1 Gig Fiber WiFi, a Roku TV, a fully stocked kitchen with a pot filler, and a heavy-duty commercial washer/dryer, things you don’t always find in short-term rentals.
We’ve set this home up to be flexible, whether you're here for work, visiting ECSU or UConn, or just exploring Eastern Connecticut, this space is designed for easy living.
The location is a huge draw — just over the famous Frog Bridge and within walking distance to breweries, restaurants, coffee shops, and local shops, yet tucked into a quieter residential area that feels like home.
As a full-time firefighter and local host, I care deeply about creating safe, well-maintained properties for guests to enjoy — and Thread City Escape is a reflection of that commitment.
