Mystic - Island retreat

Kevin's gardens are beautiful, house is so lovely.Fully equiped kitchen made hosting family dinners easy!

My husband and I stayed in this lovely Mystic home for 8 nights. My son joined us for the last night. This charming home looks deceptively small from the outside but, magically, when you open the front door, the first floor is very large and open and bathed in light. The living room has a big comfy couch, chairs, a great table for games and eating and is connected to a wonderful kitchen packed with everything you could possibly need. Off this area is a roomy screened-in sunporch with a vaulted ceiling and more comfy couches. Having coffee in the morning out on the porch or reading out there by lamplight at night was a delight. There is also a large, sunny front room with comfortable chairs and fabulously stocked bookshelves. This is an artistic home - there are objects of interest everywhere. Even on rainy days, we still felt we were on vacation because the house itself was such a treat. The three bedrooms upstairs are very pretty. Each room has a ceiling fan. The host left extra fans and there is a powerful ductless air conditioner in the master bedroom (also downstairs). We were visiting during a terrible heat wave but found the fans and the air conditioning more than sufficient. And we are very particular about the heat. The bathrooms were more than fine, especially the upstairs bath. Water pressure was great. This is a special place. The host is lovely. She was available for help or questions immediately. It was very hard to leave and we hope to come back.

When I walked into Mystic Retreat I felt at home. Tucked into a quiet neighborhood on Masons Island. It was as if I were staying at my sisters, but she wasn’t home. The vibe is peaceful. The back patio is a great spot to relax & chat. The owners artistic personality graces the house. There’s every amenity you would have at home. Nice trip!

Kevin's home is spacious and cozy. Surrounded by books with the perfect sunroom to curl up and read. We stayed for six days and it was perfect for our family of four, including two kids. Communicating with Kevin was a true pleasure and we would stay there again anytime.

Thank you Kevin, Great communication before during and after our stay. Relaxing trip even with the heat wave! Wish our daughters & family could have come, plenty of room. First floor Open so air circulated and stayed cool while we were out on adventure's. Home was clean all furniture comfortable. Beautiful breeze in the yard & through the screened in porch. Walk a block away to see the sunset. Breath taking! Close to everything 5 min Mystic village shops, 25 min Misquamicut Beach RI & and so much in between.

The location on Mason Island is fantastic. We very much enjoyed being in the resort town of Mystic. There's so much to do in the area - swimming, shopping, hiking, boating, museums, restaurants, and more. The house was great - in a quiet neighborhood, with a lovely yard - very relaxing - plenty of room. Our family had a glorious vacation together.

We found this home to be cozy and well located for touring around Mystic and Stonington. Comfortably accommodated our party of five. The owner was extremely communicative and helpful directing us to sites and restaurants. Owner also encouraged us to use the fireplace, which was perfect for the cold November evenings.
