About the host

Hosted by Susan Mansfield

My name is Joan McGee and I grew up in Stamford CT. I have lived in Rowayton for 45 years and I am the mother of Brendan of Brendan's 101, a favorite spot for Rowaytonites to meet and eat. I am a retired educator and am enjoying spending time with my three grandsons. I love to travel and enjoy sharing my home with others. My close friend, Susan Mansfield, manages her two homes on HomeAway/VRBO and has added mine to her repertoire.

Why they chose this property

It is a sweet home in an ideal location near the village of Rowayton which is very desirable. People who have stayed in my home always love it and want to come back; many have even offered to buy it!
