Where Twain Shall Meet

Five years ago interior designer Kenneth Hockin chose a log-cabin getaway that hovers just paces from Stormfield, Mark Twain’s Redding estate, and is flanked by 325 acres of the Saugatuck nature preserve. Like Twain, who sought “a country home which should be near enough to New York, and yet not too near in summer and winter,” as reported in a 1917 New York Times article, Hockin found a location close enough to his New York apartment and clients but with an otherworldly feel where he might retreat to focus on his design business and entertain friends.
