STONINGTON, Conn. — One Connecticut town will serve as the backdrop for a new Lifetime movie.

“The hotel is providing the shooting location, rooms, and catering. They have been great partners in this,” said Gernhard.

Scott Barlow, the hotel's general manager of property operations said he hopes this is the beginning of a new relationship between the film industry and the property.
