Alexis was a great host. She offered suggestions for places to visit and eat. I was only in the area one full day so didn't have a lot of time. The place was clean and well stocked with anything you might need. The location was perfect for an evening walk into Mystic.

Alexis Ann was wonderful, the photo of the lighthouse confused me at first bc I thought that was the rental unit, although the correct address was listed! It wasn’t until I confirmed the reservation and received the photo of the house that I realized it was at the address listed not the lighthouse! Great weekend, convenient to town and Would definitely stay there again Everything worked out great

Alexis Ann was a gracious host, and has set up a cozy guest suite. The galley kitchen was suitable for setting up breakfasts and light dinners, and the rooms are all very comfortable. The location is right near a food market and about a 15 minute walk from downtown Mystic (and 30 minutes or so from the train station).

Perfect spot for a weekend away

This was the perfect spot for a lovely weekend away. The space was clean, bright, spacious and had old time charm with modern amenities. It is also a five minute drive to downtown with shops, cafes and other fun things to do. The owner was kind, welcoming, helpful and we would absolutely stay there again.

Cute colorful house!

We loved the way the house was decorated and everything we could possible need was provided for us. It is very close to town, so we could’ve walked if it was warmer outside! The host was very kind, helpful, and responsive.

Delightful Victorian

My husband and I thoroughly enjoyed our three nights staying here. Everything was spotlessly clean and extremely quaint. Our host was on the ball and very responsive. We would stay here again if we’re back in the New London/Groton/Mystic area! Thank you!!

Cute and comfortable

I had a lovely long weekend staying at this little spot super close to Mystic. The accommodations were very comfortable, clean, and cheery. Alexis was kind and helpful. The location was simultaneously close to so many fun things to explore, either by walking or driving, but just far away enough to be out of the line of traffic, so it was quiet and getting around was easy. I would definitely use this little spot as a "home base" for all that the area has to offer again. Thank you!
