Perfect for Groups! New England Hospitality at its Best!

TWO HOME COLLECTION

Perfect for Groups | Historic Charm, Privacy, and New England Hospitality

In the Denison Home and Carriage House, you will find cozy gathering spaces, character-filled bedrooms, maritime touches, and the kind of atmosphere that makes people slow down and settle in. These are not cookie-cutter stays. Each home has its own personality, with layers of nautical history, antique details, and thoughtful comforts that make your time in Mystic feel special.

You are close to the heart of Mystic, the Seaport, beautiful coastline, shops, restaurants, and all the little moments that make this corner of Connecticut such a treasure. Spend your days exploring, eating well, browsing bookstores and boutiques, walking along the water, or heading out for a scenic drive. Then come home to porches, firepit evenings, shared meals, and stories around the table.

THE SPACE

This listing includes access to a historic home and carriage house, ideal for groups who want to stay near one another while still enjoying room to unwind.
The Denison Home is full of old-world character and maritime soul, with inviting common spaces that make it easy to gather, celebrate, and reconnect.
The Carriage House adds even more room for your group, with charming accommodations and a tucked-away feel that gives guests a sense of privacy while still being part of the larger gathering.

Together, these properties create a rare setup for larger groups visiting Mystic. You can gather for meals, celebrations, morning coffee, and evening conversation, then retreat to your own space at the end of the day.

THE NEIGHBORHOOD

You’ll be staying in Old Mystic, near the head of the Mystic River. This part of town feels a little quieter and more local, while still keeping you close to everything that makes the area special.

Nearby highlights include:

• Downtown Mystic, about 3 miles away, for shopping, strolling, dining, and the riverfront
• Scenic River Road right around the corner for walking, jogging, and biking, with complimentary bikes provided
• Mystic Seaport Museum and Mystic Aquarium, both about a 2-mile drive
• Connecticut and Rhode Island beaches for easy day trips, many about 15 minutes away
• Haley’s Way Playground and field behind the property, great for kids to run off energy

Mystic is the kind of place you can enjoy in every season, with maritime history, great food, local events, and plenty of cozy corners to relax between adventures.

TRAVEL NOTES

Mystic is conveniently located between Boston and New York and less than 1 mile off I-95 at Exit 90.

• T. F. Green Airport in Providence is about 43 miles away
• Mystic Train Station is about 3 miles away
• A car is strongly recommended

You will have access to both buildings and the property’s outdoor spaces.

Check-out: 11:00 AM

Entry is by keypad and lockbox access.

• Full arrival details will be sent about 4 days before your stay
• Door codes will be sent about 24 hours before arrival

Outdoor spaces, including the side yard, gazebo area, and both firepit areas, are yours to enjoy.


GOOD TO KNOW

• The Denison Home is located on Main Street across from the Old Mystic Post Office. It can be busy during the day but is generally quiet in the evenings.
• The Old Mystic Fire Station is down the street, so you may hear sirens at times.
• As with many historic homes, wide-plank floors may creak, doors can stick with weather changes, and original windows may feel drafty in winter.
• The Carriage House first-floor rooms are separate from the upstairs 2-bedroom apartment, so guests walk outside under the covered roofline to reach the apartment entrance.
• The Denison and Carriage House driveways connect, and we will send clear parking guidance before arrival.

Interaction
OUR SUPPORT

You’ll have easy self-check-in, and we live about 10 minutes away should anything come up during your stay. We always respect your space and privacy, but we are happy to help with questions or local recommendations anytime.

During longer stays, you may briefly see one of us outside watering plants or bringing bins to the curb, especially if your stay includes a Wednesday night.

A FEW FINAL WORDS

Time away together is precious, and it can be hard to find a place that feels both special and comfortable for a larger group. This collection of homes was made for meaningful gatherings, the kind where memories are made over coffee, shared meals, laughter in the yard, and late-night chats after a full day in Mystic.

We would be delighted to host your group and welcome you to our little corner of coastal New England.
