A Historic Mystic Showpiece

We loved this house from the moment we opened the front door. It’s a vintage house modernized beautifully. It was very clean and the beds were comfortable, and having four bedrooms, along with the three modern bathrooms was perfect for our eight member family. We loved the coastal decor which gave it a perfect New England flavor and It’s right up the hill from downtown Mystic so access to it was just a walk away. We enjoyed every minute of our stay in this wonderful house, can’t wait to go back. I must also say, Gerard was a great host, the best!

Exceptional property

Loved our stay here! The house is actually larger than it seems in the photos. Plenty of room for everyone. Three full baths are quite a treat! The house was spotless and its location to downtown Mystic cannot be beat. Literally, a 5 minute walk and you're in the center of town. No worries about parking when going out to dinner on a busy night in town. Check in and communication with Gerard was perfect. He's quick to respond to all questions! Would rent again without hesitation.

Better than advertised!

Our stay in Groton/Mystic was fantastic thanks to this fantastic property! Gerard keeps a pristine home with every charm we could have hoped for. We dined inside and outside, slept comfortably upstairs and down, and enjoyed many walks to town immediately around the corner. We have already started thinking about our next trip north and without question, this home is at the top of the shortest list!

Best house in Mystic

The town is great for adults and families. There's plenty of places in Mystic and the surrounding area to eat, shop, and sites to see for everyone. Then there's the house we stayed in, you couldn't ask for a nicer house and location. Everything we did in Mystic proper we walked to. We did have great weather for walking. The house was wonderful, it was clean and well maintained, it was spacious and there was plenty of furniture, inside and outside to relax. The beds were comfortable and the kitchen is well stocked if you choose to cook your meals. There's also a couple of outside patios and a porch to relax or have a meal after grilling outside. Maybe the best VRBO home we've ever stayed at. Lastly, you can tell the owner wants you to have the best experience you've ever had. He checked in with us once or twice, without being nosy or pushy, to make sure we were happy and assure us if there was anything we needed, just ask. He gets right back to you.

Perfect!

Six of us stayed to celebrate a bachelorette. The house was clean, large with plenty of beds and seating and outdoor spaces, and well stocked. Its the perfect location to walk to a ton of restaurants, shopping, etc and it was great to just park and walk the where we needed to be all weekend. Gerard was very responsive and helpful and accommodating.

Great place to stay in Mystic

This house suited us perfectly for our Mystic vacation. My husband and I and our two daughters and their family were there. The four bedrooms and three bathrooms were perfect. Each family had their own bath. This house is big and spacious! It had a great deck out back with a table that fit all of us. We were 6 adults and 3 littles 3 years and under!

Mystic getaway

The property is absolutely lovely. The beautiful kitchen is well appointed and thoughtfully stocked. We enjoyed the comfortable furniture and charming decor. Our only idea for additional equipment is to add a tea kettle. One small concern was that the control knob in the upstairs bathtub fell off - I think it just needs a small screw. Not a big problem because I was still able to use it carefully. Also, I was heating a washcloth in the microwave to apply to my leg cramp and I left it in too long. I scorched the cloth and had to throw it out. My apologies! We are looking forward to out getaway next year and will look for a property in your group! Thank you!

Exceptional Stay

The property, accommodations and location could not be more perfect. Gerard is a super friendly and communicative host. The check-in and check-out process was the easiest I've experienced so far. The home is very spacious and charming - and immaculately clean (including all dishware and utensils, which I always pay particular attention to). The rooms are all extremely comfortable and sunny with TVs in every room. And the location cannot be beat. It was a joy to step out and walk directly into Mystic downtown. If you want a quaint, comfortable and picturesque stay choose this home in Mystic for your next trip. We cannot wait to come back and stay here again.

Ideal Group Vacation in Downtown Mystic

The home is ideal even better than the description and photos. We loved the location, spacious rooms indoor and comfortable outdoor living areas as well. The fully stocked kitchen, bathrooms with child's step stools & first aid kits, and nice book, puzzle & toy collections truly made the rental feel like home (without the worries or cares). Such fun to be able to walk to pizza, ice cream, book shops, the most delicious bakery and much more. The worry free check out was icy on the cake. This was the best rental experience.

Could not ask for more

This really is a gem. IMMACULATE. It was just my sister and me. Furnishings were incredibly comfortable and clean, with a beautiful selection /mix of antiques & you can see there was careful thought put into the décor and design of the home- thank you for keeping the original elements, like the pocket doors and the fabulous original wide-plank flooring throughout both levels. Excellent floorplan. Quiet. Awesome outdoor spaces. Brand new driveway and you could tell it was painstaking to do any refurbishing. Kitchen is AMAZING! We planned to eat dinner out each night, but decided to stay in and cook together. They have thought of everything - food wraps, super sharp knives (look new), condiments, and the appliances appear new - so clean! Complimentary baskets of possible needs in each bathroom (make-up towels, micellar water, cotton cleansing pads, etc.). Owners are only a call or text away and are immediately responsive. For our stay, they actually contacted us ahead of check in to let us know the home was ready to check in- we REALLY appreciated that. This would be a perfect family rental - so much room, indoor and out and walking distance to the main avenue of shops and restaurants by the bridge. We will definitely be back. Can I give them 20 stars?

Magical time in Mystic!

My family of five spent the long Easter weekend in Mystic and had the most amazing time. The home is so well-acquainted. My family had room to spread out, but also enjoyed the cozy living space to all be together. Gerard is the most wonderful host. He touched base at check-in and his company provides thoughtful amenities at the property. We would definitely go back!
