It is quiet, peaceful, and beautiful here, especially gazing at the spectacular sunsets, listening to birdsong, and seeing the resident snowy egret come to roost on the big rock at water's edge. The property is lovingly landscaped too.
The living space is spacious, charming, immaculate, comfortable. And our hostess Pat thoughtfully provided every creature comfort, even toiletry items that perhaps we might have forgotten to pack.
We enjoyed relaxing by the crystal-clear pool and taking a daily dip. We used Pat's kayaks to paddle around the cove and even traveled to a nearby beach, where we stopped for a pleasant swim.
We enjoyed many nearby attractions and activities, such as Mystic Aquarium, the US Navy Submarine Museum, the Denison Nature Center, Olde Mistick Village, Foxwoods Casino, and Ocean Beach Park. Pat provided a helpful basket of info about local things to see and do, and also recommended some events that were happening nearby during our stay, like the Blessing of the Fleet parade and Tuesday night live music on the beach - just around the corner!
After so much fun, we dined like locals at outdoor marina-side lobster and clam shacks, followed by homemade ice cream; then, peaceful nights of great sleep on the very comfortable bed, with soft, gorgeous linens. What a perfect vacation!
