Amazing!
We rented this property for ourselves and family to stay in for my son’s wedding at nearby Smith Farms and Gardens. (Highly recommended for a wedding venu). The hosts were so welcoming, showed us around property and made us feel very comfortable. Everything was pristine, very clean, comfortable, and we were welcomed with a tray of delicious croissants! Property was beautiful, our teens loved the pond that was equipped with everything from paddle boats to paddle boards. They even welcomed our dog. We will be back to stay and we highly recommend!
Stayed 2 nights in Jun 2024

About the host

Hosted by William Terry

Host profile image
As a life long Connecticut resident, I want my guests to see the rural countryside I have come to know and love. Spending hours as a child in Antique shops that dot the country roads, swimming on Long Island Sound, attending Goodspeed Opera House and seeing the fabulous shows and now having two of the largest Casinos, Foxwood and Mohegan Sun, a short drive away.

Why they chose this property

East Haddam, Connecticut is very wooded with great history. Gillette Castle State Park has recently been renovated and makes a great sightseeing attraction overlooking the famous Connecticut River.
Our property adjoins the State of CT, Devils Hopyard State Park. Offering 1000 acres of hiking, picnicking, fishing and camping. Don't worry about reserving a campsite, plenty of areas on our 15 acre property if you or friends wish to camp out for a night or two.

What makes this property unique

We have more than a cabin on the property. You have room to spread out, listen to the wildlife, relax on your own beach. The pond is fed by 3 brooks and underground springs. Insects are very few and and little need for spray repellents.
In the years we have been here, we have never seen the local bear, and only once saw a shy coyote by the pond for a minute. Lots of birds! Hawks hunting mice!
Don't forget your legal firearms!! We have a formerly NRA approved 1000 yard legal shooting range to practice your aim. Some past guests have brought their Bows and arrows for practice.
About once a year a lost hiker or two may stumble out from the Devils Hopyard State Park. Happy to see us and ask for directions. Other than that no visitors other than USPS, Amazon, FedEx and UPS deliveries! NO CLOSE NEIGHBORS! TURN THE TUNES UP!!!
Plenty of spots for parking.
New HUGE Bull Barbeque Grill with griddle, and pizza stone.
