We lived in West Hartford for 23 years before moving to the Midwest a decade ago. We had an early Christmas celebration with our children who live in the area. The location was super convenient to the freeway and walking distance to groceries, restaurants, stores and the library. The house itself was very clean and comfortable for our family of 8 to gather around the dining room table. With the extra bedrooms, our children were able to join us for days of hanging out. The only down side is that while well equipped, the kitchen is limited. Since I didn’t want to cook, it was ok just for breakfast. The host was very responsive and says he is updating the kitchen soon. I would book the place again and still might not cook! Our dog loved the back yard and nearby trails along Troutbrook too.
