Rustic cottage on brook

The spaceThis small cottage is by a brook, 1 mile from the center of New London and less than a mile from beautiful hiking trails. A deck provides views of a woodsy yard – and a wood-fired kiln. The back of the house is a screened in porch above the brook, where you’ll feel as if you’re in a tree house. It’s quiet yet it’s only a short drive to hiking, skiing, restaurants, and shops—perfect as a writing or painting retreat.Two indoor cats will be in residence -when requesting an exchange, please indicate that you enjoy cats and will feed them. There is an automatic litter box that will need tending every 8 days.There is a queen bed in an upstairs bedroom. Seasonally, another queen bed is available on a screened-in porch by the brook. I have a twin bedroom that I use for personal storage but if needed, can be made available.This is my primary residence so there are personal items in the home. The home is clean and well-equipped but needs some cosmetic repairs—please ask for details if there is concern.Please no parties, smoking, or candles. Not suitable for young children. Maximum four guests please.Guest accessEntire houseOther things to noteThe house, deck, and sloped yard make it unsuitable for small children. There is a hill to walk down from the parking area to the house.
