About the host
Hosted by Carol York
I didn't realize how much pleasure I'd take in hearing from our guests what a beautiful spot we have. I think if you stay here you'll agree!
I enjoy gardening, so you can enjoy the perennial gardens without the care involved.
I live right near by so I am available for any questions you have or anything you find you need.

Why they chose this property
Collinsville is a charming little old Mill Town overlooking the Farmington River. Rails to Trails offers walking, biking, running opportunities. Cute cafes and shops downtown. Close to lots of other things happening in the Farmington Valley. Also close to all the private schools if you're visiting your child... Avon Old Farms, Ethel Walker, Miss Porter's, Westminster.
What makes this property unique
This is a beautiful antique Craftsman home set overlooking the river. It honestly is the best house in Collinsville!
