About this property
Historic Sea Captains Home in Downtown Mystic, Walk everywhere, Pet Friendly!
The Captain William Morgan House is a 2,700 sq. ft. sea captain’s home built in 1852, beautifully renovated in 2015.
This Greek Revival has been thoughtfully updated with modern comforts while maintaining its original charm.
The Captain Morgan House has three bedrooms plus two loft bedrooms, two full baths, and sleeps up to 10.
It sits in the heart of downtown Mystic’s historic district, just a 3 minute walk to shops, restaurants, and everything downtown has to offer, so you can leave your car behind and walk everywhere.
The yard is entirely fenced in, perfect for relaxing outdoors. In addition to the cozy sitting porch out front and the large, covered, pillared porch at the back of the house, there is also a private stone patio tucked into the far corner of the yard, a peaceful spot for morning coffee or tea.
The spacious yard also features a hammock and an in-ground stone fire pit for relaxed evenings.
A picnic table sits at the far back of the yard, and the property is surrounded by beautiful flowering gardens, with roses, hydrangeas, lavender, and seasonal perennials adding color and fragrance throughout the season and creating a calm, welcoming setting.
This rental has everything you will need for a comfortable, relaxing stay, and there are also 4 kayaks available for your use.
The Mystic River is just one street away, with views the windows. You will hear boat whistles, church bells, and those familiar sea sounds that make Mystic feel like Mystic.
You are also a short drive to Mystic Seaport Museum, Mystic Aquarium, Olde Mistick Village, and nearby favorites like the Mystic River Bascule Bridge, Williams Beach, the Argia Mystic Cruises, Stonington Borough, Bluff Point State Park, and Rhode Islands beautiful beaches.
The home is available nightly, weekly, or monthly, year round. The property is very private, peaceful, and truly in walking distance to everything.
Next door to the main house is The Carriage House at 26 Pearl St, also available to rent. For larger groups, this is an ideal setup, you can occupy the entire property (a double lot) while still having plenty of privacy. Pets are allowed under the discretion of the owner.

Hi!
I've been renting the Carriage House at 26 Pearl Street since 2002 and the Captain Morgan House since 2010. I have met so many wonderful people over the years! I am also happy to say that many great memories have been created here. I have a degree in graphic design and art education enabling me to add many creative touches to each suite. I am also a people person so I love my job!
Hope you can share my beautiful space!
