We had a great stay. Communication was easy from start to finish, the location was fantastic with a short walk to all the shops, restaurants, and waterfront in downtown Mystic, and the house was very comfortable for our group of adults. The host was accommodating and responsive throughout. We’d happily stay here again recommend to others.
Super close to great restaurants, bars and shopping in downtown Mystic. House was beautiful, perfect for a large group. Backyard is great for the fire pit and outdoor dining area is gorgeous under the lights. Would stay here again!
Great property for our family/group of 7 adults while attending a wedding in Mystic. Property is convenient/walking distance to everything in Mystic. Well stocked and labeling of cabinet contents, light switches, etc. very helpful. Communication with owner was excellent, including coordinating some last minute things we needed shipped to the house. Highly recommend.
Well stocked / beds were firm but very comfortable. Got down to 12 degrees one night and house was very warm. In perfect location / pretty street with short walk to mystic drawbridge.
We had a wonderful stay! The house was beautiful, spotless, and very comfortable. Melissa was an outstanding host, responsive, professional, and a pleasure to work with. Highly recommend!
Great house! Our family enjoyed the stay in this lovely home. So close to downtown Mystic. Rooms were large, beds were comfy & having 3 full baths is wonderful & a must for us. Plus the early check-in was so nice. Thanks Melissa!
This home was perfect for me and my siblings for our post-Thanksgiving relaxation escape. The Christmas boat parade was just down the street as well as plenty of shopping and dining. The table shuffleboard in house was quite competitive and fun! What a unique, beautiful home and setting. thank you!
Stayed here for a girls weekend and the house was great! Very cute house, great outdoor space, comfy beds, and an easy walk to town. One of my friends is considering coming back with her family this summer. Highly recommend!

Glad you had a great girls weekend at the house! Hope to have you back in Mystic.
The home is lovely and well equipped. A short walk to downtown Mystic, restaurants and shopping. Our family enjoyed the space to spread out and to come together at the large table. The yard and especially the beautiful Hydrangea was the perfect backdrop to pre wedding photos. Check in was a breeze and Melissa was a super host
We had a family wedding nearby so a house was perfect for us. We walked into downtown Mystic which was so convenient. The house itself was as listed. Beautiful, clean, and all the amenities. We were all very pleased with our stay.
This house is excellent for a group of friends… we were able to walk to town in a few minutes, relax on back patio, use kitchen and lounge areas and all sleep comfortably. We will definitely be back!
The house fit 8 of us perfectly, 3 generations coming together for our annual vacation. We slept great and it was a perfect distance from downtown for shopping and exploring. The only downside was having to use a silicone spatula for the grill. Aside from that the house is lovely, spacious and set up for a comfortable vacation. Thank you for the lovely week away.
The house was amazing. Perfect blend of features from the original home and plenty of modern touches. House was spacious for group of 8. Fireplace on main floor was a nice touch. We would book this every trip yo Mystic. Very short walk to downtown and all that mystic had to offer.

Thank you Matt. I’m glad you & your friends had a great time at the house. Hope to have you back.
We loved everything about this house. We were 7 adults, and we all had plenty of room. The location is the best, and we were able to walk to all the restaurants and shops in town. It was very peaceful at the house even though it was 4th of July weekend and Mystic was extremely busy. The beds are super comfy, and we had a blast making s'mores in the fire pit. We will book again next year!
My girlfriends and I had the best time! There was plenty of room for the 7 of us, and we only stayed 2 nights but wish we had booked the house for longer. The house is super clean, and the pictures don't do it justice, it's way cuter in person. The owner, Melissa was so nice and sent me a huge list of things to do, places to see, and restaurants to eat, and she basically planned our itinerary for us which was amazing. I would definitely recommend it!

Thanks Melissa for a wonderful stay. The house couldn’t have been any nicer. We were able to walk everywhere and felt very comfortable. Thank you for the generous provisions you left for us. Much appreciated. Probably be back again next Christmas.
