Perfect Mystic Weekend

Perfectly located within walking distance of shops and restaurants in downtown Mystic, this charming historical house was a gem. There was plenty of room for 2 couples and 2 grown kids with ample space in the living room/kitchen and great space on the front porch and patio. The house was nicely decorated and the owner thought of every amenity his guests would need. We definitely would come back again!

Unbeatable location

Property inside & out was as advertised. Location was perfect. Mystic traffic is no joke, especially when the bridge goes up, but we could park the car & walk just about anywhere we needed. Would rent again & will recommend to friends & family.

Townhouse Downtown Mystic

Our stay at the property in Mystic was fantastic. The property listing is just as you see. It's a charming and historic townhouse within a short walk to downtown Mystic. We walked every day. The neighborhood is wonderful to walk as well. The townhouse was exceptionally clean and lovely. Gerard, the property owner, reached out daily to make sure everything was going well. He also made the check-in and check-out process convenient. I would stay again!

Mystic vacation

The house is in an excellent location, just a short walk into town and had every amenity you could need. As a first time house renter in USA it was great to find everything you need for washing and cleaning and all the things we would normally bring with us. We also loved the porch which was a real sun trap and a great place to spend sn evening.

Fabulous Friends Getaway

We had a perfect stay at this lovely Mystic home. It had absolutely everything we needed and the beds were very comfortable. It is just a short walk into Mystic town center so we never had to drive anywhere except for a quick trip to the grocery store. We enjoyed coffee on the covered porch in the morning and cocktails on the patio in the evening. Our host Gerard was accommodating, kind and considerate. It was the perfect place for a small group of teacher friends to relax and unwind at the end of a long school year. We will definitely return here to enjoy Mystic again one day.

We had a wonderful stay and truly enjoyed this home. It was perfect for our family of four and exactly as advertised. The house was clean, comfortable, and thoughtfully set up, with all of the amenities we needed to feel right at home. We especially appreciated the attention to detail, including the welcome basket, which was such a nice touch and made us feel immediately welcomed.Working with Gerard was a pleasure. He is a great communicator and was very responsive and helpful whenever we had questions. We have stayed at another one of his properties in the past and had a great experience, and this stay was just as positive.The location was ideal, with an easy walk to downtown restaurants and shops, and a CVS right up the street for any essentials you may have forgotten. Some of our favorite nearby spots were Sift Bakery, Bravo Bravo, Taquerio, Engine Room, and the Mystic Drawbridge Ice Cream shop, which our kids absolutely loved. We would absolutely stay here again and highly recommend this property to others!

Everything about our trip was perfection! Mystic is such a beautiful and amazing little town! Gerard’s home was in the perfect location! Walking distance to so many things including Main Street and the Maritime museum! The aquarium and old Towne village were a short drive away! The home was decorated beautifully and so clean! Gerad makes the check in and check out process so simple! We will definitely be back!
