Sunny Studio APT above historic Westport Mill

No ugly duckling. Fall asleep to the sounds of a centurys-old waterfall in this sunny studio apartment on Sasco Lake, atop the original Mill. With panoramic views and breathtaking surroundings, including endless flora and fauna, and a contingent of mallards, egrets, and swans, this hideaway may be moments from Southport Village, but feels like many miles from everything. Original hardwood floors and updated amenities make for a charming place to rest your bones, if only for the evening.

The space

This stunning, historic studio apartment is located atop a renovated Mill along side a breathtaking creek and wetlands. Original hardwood floors, exposed wooden beams and thoughtful furnishings, embrace the historic setting. With multiple windows and skylights, it is bright, airy, and filled with views. There is plenty of room for up to four people to prepare and enjoy intimate meals while viewing the beautiful Mill pond below. We also have high speed Wi-Fi and a desk / work space area making this an ideal location for business travelers. We own the building and the B@Work Co-Working space below. We have opened a multi-level work space with views of the Brook and waterfall, just downstairs from our charming studio vacation rental. Our guests have 24/7 access to this spectacular space. The apartment is located on a busy street. Most guests do not have an issue with this. However, we want to mention this up front.

Guest access

Guests can park in our private parking lot. The studio apartment is up one flight of stairs. The entire space is yours. The apartment is set up in an open layout. We have a bedroom section with a queen size bed. There is a full kitchen with plates, glasses, cups, and utensils. Of course a microwave, toaster, and coffee maker are included. The kitchen is small and quaint, but adequate to prepare a romantic meal for four. There is a cute dining section with a table for four. Plenty of sunlight (or moonlight) coming through the skylights and windows. You even have a lovely view of the Mill stream and meadow below. The living section has a cozy couch that is also a sofa bed (full size). You can enjoy our large screen smart TV with cable. Of course you can always stream your favorite music on our Amazon Alexa/Sonos System. The entire building was a working Mill until the early 20th century. We have completely embraced its history and renovated with love. Right down to preserving the hardwood floors and exposed beams.

A Very Pleasurable Stay
Gerard prioritizes guest comfort and is an excellent communicator. The Westport Studio is our second stay at one of his quality properties, the other was in Mystic Connecticut. We look forward to exploring more of his Great Gull, New England properties during our next trip along the East Coast. The Westport Studio, Old Mill and the Mystic School House, are well-equipped for eating in, the beds comfortable and the linens are high-quality. It is such a pleasure when a host takes care to provide excellent amenities. The street noise at the Studio did not disturb us and the area quieted significantly by our early bedtime. We were also treated to seeing deer on the land outside the mill. We were traveling with our son’s dog and discovered a fabulous off-leash walking spot nearby: Lake Mohegan. The trail is mostly shaded, dogs were well behaved and lots of opportunity for them to swim and play. We highly recommend Great Gull properties.

Perfect location, nicely supplied and appointed. Very clean and close to pretty much anything you could require. Back for my Moms funeral and the rental agency contacted us daily just to make sure our stay was trouble free, which it was. 5 stars! Won’t hesitate to stay here again!
