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

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.

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.

Amazing Home

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.

Great place for a girls trip!

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!

Magnificent!

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!

Eight adults (60+) all happy at once! The location was perfect for a walk for a happy hour drink, shopping, ice cream and dinner! The house was comfortable, clean and cozy. It accommodated all eight of us perfectly with enough bathrooms, bedrooms and "alone" space. The setting was beautiful. The house immaculate. Thank you so very much. It was perfect!

Great place! Great location.

Our group of eight really enjoyed our stay at this home in Mystic. It is a beautiful big home with lots of room to spread out. Perfect for multiple families. The location is unbeatable. Just up and around the corner from all the activities in downtown Mystic. The kitchen was spacious and well stocked. We use the barbecue pit. And also made an outdoor fire in the backyard. Our host was readily available, and we truly enjoyed our a few days here.

Bridal Shower weekend

Headed to Mystic with my five aunts and wanted to be in the middle of things… cafes, restaurants, shopping, marinas…and we had it all! Plus, a beautiful home to gather and celebrate. Coffee on the back patio was just magical too! Practical… beds were super comfortable and home well appointed. High end appliances. Very responsive host. Will definitely return.
