Spectacular private waterfront home on the Niantic River. We call it the “RIVER RESORT”, our personal oasis! The photos tell the story. If you love the solitude the water has to offer, this setting is perfect for you. Great for a romantic weekend alone or simply just a place to relax and get lost in the view.
One bedroom with a queen bed located on the lower level of our home. The upper level will be vacant. Direct waterfront views from every space. There is a full-size kitchen and full-size bathroom to accommodate your every need just as if you were home. All you need is your suitcase and personal items. Walk out your bedroom door to the covered patio with comfortable seating and dining table or relax on the huge patio and watch the boats go by while you sunbathe in the lounge chairs on our beautiful stretch of the Niantic River.
Outside you have comfortable covered and uncovered seating, lounging areas and dining table options. If it gets chilly, simply light the fire pit or warm up in the optional hot tub.
Many amenities include private dockage. You can bring your boat or kayak to enjoy the river. Boarding ladder for easy in and out swimming. Fish right from one of the many rocking chairs and clean them at the filet station.
There is an additional detached space we call the “MERMAID LOUNGE” with a full-size sleep sofa that could accommodate 2 more people. This space can be made to be available after booking. There is also an option if you would like to use the soft tub! Please inquire.
The space is equipped with an AC, oven, small fridge with freezer, microwave, toaster and Keurig for your convenience.

Hi Mary Ellen,
We are happy you enjoyed your stay and hope you visit again!
Thanks so much,

River Resort was perfect for a girls weekend with my daughters. Clean & beautifully decorated. The backyard is stunning. Nearby to Mystic, a couple of beach spots, and Connecticut College which is beautiful to stroll through (my daughter is a professor there in the fall!!).We will be back:)
A sweet little comfy, peaceful place. It was well stocked with simple things. One small minor critique is to maybe have blinds, curtains, a window covering for the large sliding door/side windows for at night. This would not deter us from staying there though. We would recommend this place for sure!

We stayed at the River Resort for a weekend to celebrate our 10 year wedding anniversary and it was perfect! Right on the river with everything you could want or need to enjoy waterfront living - colorful rocking chairs which we used to watch the sun rise over the river, dock that we used to peek at a few fish swimming around, fire pit to warm us at night, and a hot tub to relax in after a day of exploring the area. The house itself had everything we needed from linens and kitchen supplies, to the special extras like a whole house speaker system to enjoy your music to while hanging out! We did not want for anything during this stay and must have said “wow, they thought of everything” a hundred times while there. Mark and Amy have a beautiful home and are great hosts. Highly encourage a stay there!

Kristina,
Thanks so much for being awesome guests and choosing our home for your vacation. You are welcome anytime.
Happy Anniversary again!!!
Wow! A peaceful river resort. They truly have an amazing property and have thought of everything. The extra touches like extra linens, pots and pans and a cooler of ice. We never cook on vacation however we bought two steaks from a local butcher shop and grilled them on the patio while watching the hummingbirds and river roll by. True waterfront dining. We wanted to see things in the area so we had to make the tough decision to leave the home. We loved sitting around the firepit in the evening and reflecting on the day. We look forward to returning to this property in the future.

Why they chose this property
Our home is directly on the Niantic River. We have a gorgeous back yard with a huge patio and dock. The view of the river is amazing. There is nothing like floating in the river and then relaxing in the evening in our private peaceful patio.
