    Location is great, immediately across from Mystic Seaport Shipyard, and since we were going to the museum, this was convenient. Also easy walking distance to downtown Mystic. Layout is relatively open with good circulation. Winder stair could intimidate some people, but owner has helpfully added an extra grab bar. We made use of many of the amenities including the sufficiently-equipped kitchen and the gas grill.

    Great location to shops, the stairs to the 2nd and 3rd floor were narrow and steep but lots of grab bars for your safety.

    This was the cleanest rental property we’ve had the privilege to stay. The location to downtown Mystic and the Seaport Museum was perfect! Every night my husband and I would go outside right before 8PM to hear the church bells from across the lake.The stairs are no joke but there are baby safety gates which was perfect for our 3 under 3!Gerard, the host, was amazing and so accommodating. Thank you for a great family vacation!

    We had the best time at this property. We went here for our annual girls trip—six friends from college (20 years later). It’s in such a great location, just a 10-minute walk to downtown, on a quiet street. Walk for thirty seconds and you’re looking at the river. The house had everything we needed, and the owner was very easy to get in touch with quickly whenever we had a question. We would definitely come back.

    The home was very clean and in a great location. Walking distance to a lot! The only negative was the check in and check out times were firm and not flexible. We felt 4pm check in was a little late and 10am check out was early. Very kid / baby friendly, they had baby gates and a high chair at the home as well as a pack and play!

    Beautiful historic property with modern upgrades. Nice private patio and a front porch for relaxing. Right across the street from the historic Mystic Museum shipyard and minutes from the South entrance. Don't miss the Sea View Snack Bar just down the road for great lobster rolls and fried seafood.

    My family and friends stayed for two nights. The house was super clean, well appointed, close to the main strip, and communicating with the property manager was super easy. The street was quiet and being able to have your doggo with you made this spot pretty perfect. Would love to visit again!
