We absolutely loved the house and its location to Mystic! The host was great and lots of communication with reservations and directions. We would highly recommend this house!!
We had a wonderful stay ... the home was clean, well stocked and located right by the Seaport Museum. It was easy to walk to downtown Mystic as well! Would highly recommend this home.
This was the cleanest rental property we’ve had the privilege to stay. The location to downtown Mystic and the Seaport Museum was perfect! Every night my husband and I would go outside right before 8PM to hear the church bells from across the lake.The stairs are no joke but there are baby safety gates which was perfect for our 3 under 3!Gerard, the host, was amazing and so accommodating. Thank you for a great family vacation!
We stayed here this past weekend for a bachelorette weekend. The house was really cute, close to shops and perfect for the trip. The host was very helpful and always quick to respond which we really appreciated.
This home is gorgeous and perfectly located. The entire time we stayed here we thought about how lucky we were to have found such a perfect spot for our family. Gerard was a great host, who checked in during our stay and provided great accommodations.
My family and friends stayed for two nights. The house was super clean, well appointed, close to the main strip, and communicating with the property manager was super easy. The street was quiet and being able to have your doggo with you made this spot pretty perfect. Would love to visit again!
We had the best time at this property. We went here for our annual girls trip—six friends from college (20 years later). It’s in such a great location, just a 10-minute walk to downtown, on a quiet street. Walk for thirty seconds and you’re looking at the river. The house had everything we needed, and the owner was very easy to get in touch with quickly whenever we had a question. We would definitely come back.
This lovely, super clean home is located in a quiet location near the Mystic River. A short walk to restaurants, shops, and the Mystic Seaport Museum. Gerard is an attentive host who made sure our stay was enjoyable. We highly recommend this property.
Beautiful historic property with modern upgrades. Nice private patio and a front porch for relaxing. Right across the street from the historic Mystic Museum shipyard and minutes from the South entrance. Don't miss the Sea View Snack Bar just down the road for great lobster rolls and fried seafood.
Family had a great time in this wonderful quaint home which provided everything needed for a relaxing stay. Great location. Walking distance to all but far enough away from the immediate downtown. Beautiful neighborhood and views of water. Would definitely stay again.
The house was perfect for our weekend stay - great location, clean and well set up. Communication and check in process couldn't have been easier. Nice to have a "private" separate guest house - a real bonus. Easy walk to town with all its shops and restaurants. Would definitely stay here again when visiting the area.
Girls weekend was perfect and our stay at this property was a huge part of that. The house and cottage are adorable and the location was amazing with water views and easy walk to shops and restaurants. The hosts think of everything you may need. We would definitely stay there again!
The hosts have thought of everything with this property! We loved the comfortable accommodations, the location and communication upon arrival. We kept saying to ourselves "the hosts have thought of everything!" throughout the stay.
The location of the property was perfect. We could easily walk to town right along the river. Also to the Seaport which was right near the house. The house was spotless, stocked with essentials, and the beds were comfortable. A perfect place to stay in Mystic! Gerard, the property manager was great. He quickly responded to any questions and needs.
Great house in a fantastic location. This house was perfect for our family weekend. It had everything we needed and was exactly as pictures showed. Gerard was available if we needed anything and made sure all was going well. We enjoyed being able to walk along the river into Mystic town. We would definitely go back.
Everything about this home was great. We were pleasantly surprised by how easy of a walk to town it was, and scenic! Gerard was super easy to coordinate with and was very responsive. The online welcome packet was extremely helpful if we had any questions about using anything in the home. Will definitely be back!
Everything was wonderful. The location was perfect. A family of eight had plenty of room and plenty of amenities and I believe we use them all. Check in was painless. Gerard, the property manager owner was great. He kept in contact via phone or message pretty much daily, which was appreciated. I would recommend this location to anyone at any time. Great place .
We hosted family for a week and the house could not have been more accommodating or convenient to downtown. We were able to walk to every location we wanted to in the downtown area. Steps away from being able to use the kayaks was a great way to start the morning. The house was in great shape and we had plenty of privacy on the back patio. Communication with the owner was excellent throughout the week when we had questions. We will definitely consider this house again when we come back to Mystic!
