About the host
Hosted by Gwen Campbell

This house was my childhood home. We are a military family who moved to CT from Hawaii in 1990. Upon my dad's retirement, we bought this house and have been there ever since. I spent my young adult life in the New England area, however moved to settle in Key West Florida in 2009. My parents both lived in this house until their passing (2013 and 2022), and I do not want to sell this beautiful property as I fully enjoy my Connecticut summers away from the hot Key West ones! Depending on time of year, I may be in town during your stay and I would love to give you any tips on your time in my hometown!
Why they chose this property
You will find Mystic is a peaceful and beautiful place. The neighborhood is very safe and walkable. It is only a mile to downtown if you don't want to drive!
What makes this property unique
I have tried to bring a little of my southern home to my northern one. I believe bright colors make people happy and I hope you enjoy it as well! The art throughout the house is from my family-- many from growing up in Hawaii and of my mom's art collection or her paintings she did herself as an artist in the 1980's. I also try to add little new pieces to the house as I travel around the world and visit new spaces. I hope you enjoy the art as much as I do! There is a guest book as well as a PUSH PIN map to tell me where you're from!
Amenities that are unique to the house:
Coffee bar with multiple options (drop, keurig, french press, creamer, sugars, etc)
Vintage records (from my mother) and a player to play them on! (Board games and other rainy day activities in this 'game' area).
Old fashioned popcorn machine!
