About this apartment rental

No ugly duckling. Fall asleep to the sounds of a centurys-old waterfall in this sunny studio apartment, atop a renovated historic 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.

This stunning, historic studio apartment is located atop a renovated Mill along side a breathtaking pond and waterfall. 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. If you wish to lounge on a beach, we are located very close to several popular beaches.
If you are here on business
We're thrilled to announce our partnership with B@Work Co-Working. We have opened a multi-level work space with views of the waterfall, just downstairs from this charming studio vacation rental. Our guests have 24/7 access to the business center at B@Work.

Guests can park in our private parking lot. You enter by placing a code in a smart lock, which allows for self check in. 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 pond 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 and Amazon Fire Stick. Of course you can always stream your favorite music on our Amazon Alexa/Sonos System. Alexa can also be used to set the temperature for the central airconditioning or heat, in addition to turning on or off lights and locking the door. 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. Guests also have access to the washer and dryer located in the building. If you are here for work, you have access to our multi-level Co-working space, also located in the building. There is a small cafe area below, and a quaint outside table and chairs that guests also have access to.

We are always available by cellphone:

We are located right on the Westport / Southport town line. These two beautiful, quaint, coastal New England towns, have so much to offer, I don't know where to start. First, they are beach towns, so that may be a good starting point. Plenty of public beaches to choose from. Next, both towns are steeped in history (they were settled in 1639) with magnifient historic homes. They also have an incredible array of restaurants and night life to choose from. And, it is a rare individual who has not heard of Westport's Main Street for its fabulous shops and restaurants. I should also mention we are minutes from the Metro North train station. A trip into Manhattan is about an hour away!

We have our own parking lot. We are also near two major stops on Metro North. CTDOT runs bus service along the Post Road. Also, we are minutes from both I-95 and the Merritt Parkway.

We are located on the Post Road on the Westport / Southport border. Post Road is a busy street and can be a bit noisy, however, once inside, you will find a peaceful, tranquil environment. The grounds behind the building offer a wonderful space to enjoy coffee and admire the Mill pond and all its glory. The apartment is on the 2nd floor, so you must climb stairs. We do allow pets, but we trust our guests will take advantage of this accommodation responsively, please don’t let pets soil our floors, beds, or furniture. Also, this is a mid 1800’s Mill that has been restored. The bathroom is small but cozy.

We stayed a few nights while in the area to see a concert at Hartford Healthcare Amphitheater. Great location, very easy on/off 95, many restaurants and shops in the area too. The studio was comfortable and very clean, the bedding and towels were so nice and luxurious ! A great place to rest and recharge, lots of windows and skylights to bring the outside in. Gerard was great to work with and genuinely cared about our stay from beginning to end.

We had a lovely stay in this adorable and comfortable studio while in town to visit family. It is beautifully decorated and has a lot of natural light. It is conveniently located on the Post Road close to everything but has a serene out in nature feeling to it. I loved stepping outside to see the beautiful scenes of deer grazing in the meadow behind the building.

I really liked the space - it is very clean and no surprises per the photos. This is only an 8-10 minute drive to the village center, and an easy drive to some nearby parks. Also, there are several very good places to eat within a 10 minute walk or so. It is right on a very busy road but, as others note, it quiets down by bedtime. I had all I needed - lots of light, several places to sit and work, and super clean. The downstairs shared work space is really remarkable. I wish that I had been able to use it - I got a tour, and loved it. Gerard is the most efficient communicator on vrbo (no offense to others), and checkiin to check-out was really easy and clear.

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.
