Hi, I’M MEG.

I live in West Hartford, CT with my husband Chris and our baby girl Nell. We love classic American style and bickering about whose turn it is to unload the dishwasher. Glad you stopped by!

Ocean House

Ocean House

I have wanted to stay at Ocean House in Watch Hill, Rhode Island since I was a little girl - the iconic property overlooks one my favorite beaches and I've always wondered what it looked like inside. During Christmas break Chris and I realized that we had an entire week of unplanned time off together and decided that we should go on a little getaway. I was so excited that Ocean House had availability (and a few openings at the spa) so we jetted down to Rhode Island on a whim. 

Our stay was so relaxing - from the champagne at check-in the floor valet that brought us ice and a champagne bucket for our Veuve within minutes, it was such a nice break. We had lunch at Seasons (A+) and drinks by the fire in the bar after a windy walk on the beach. I also love staying somewhere with a club dress code - there is something about dressing for each part of our stay that makes a two-day getaway feel like an event. A lot of places that I travel for work have a strict dress code and while our crew sometimes complains, I secretly love it! 

To be honest, the spa was just ok - the facilities and staff were lovely but the treatments were really mediocre for the price. Regardless, I highly recommend an off-season visit to the Ocean House for a little R&R!

HAPPY NEW YEAR
