Sun Room
Spectacular views of the Mystic River. This room is a guest favorite and has water on three sides. You are immersed in the shoreline of Mason's Island with ducks, egrets, swans, seagulls, and passing boats. Everybody loves to relax, watch the wildlife, read, nap, or eat here. Most evenings feature unbelievable sunsets because the view over the water faces West! Whenever we are there, when the late afternoon arrives we start sizing-up the sunset potential (some clouds are are better than none) Great sunset = eat at home and enjoy the view with a glass of wine. No restaurant has this view. The colors and appearance are a constantly changing canvas. The Sunroom now doubles as the dinning room because everybody wanted the view while eating dinner. It has a beautiful mahogany table that expands to make it just the right size for any function.
