Excellent choice! In a quiet neighborhood, this adorable ranch provided plenty of space for our “Lifelong” friends group (3 couples). Great kitchen, cute living area where we watched ‘Mystic Pizza’ I loved the decor, sweet message and treats in the kitchen and the coziness! Host was very responsive to my messages and we appreciate that we were able to stay one night as we were traveling home to Delaware after a 10 day stay in Bar Harbor, Maine. Not all VRBO’s allow a one night stay. We would have definitely stayed longer if adulting wasn’t a thing 10/10 recommend!

This home was beautifully decorated, super clean and in a perfect location for exploring Mystic! We loved that everything was on one floor as we were traveling with our toddler. The home was fully stocked and we appreciated the little touches that made it feel like home. The neighborhood is quiet and we really enjoyed relaxing in the living room each night. The owners left recommendations for activities and food in the area which was so helpful. We are hoping to come back in the future!

If I could give 10 stars, I would!!! The property was absolutely perfect for our weekend getaway with friends (6 adults). The house was fully stocked in every aspect, all the way from bedding to the kitchen, bath towels, toiletries and beyond! The hosts keep the home very clean and it shows! Regina was exceptionally responsive both prior to and during our stay- I never had to wait more than 5 minutes for a response on the few times I reached out to her. My friends and I really enjoyed the spacious backyard and beautiful patio! We loved being able to start our day on a relaxing note, sipping our morning coffee while lounging on the Adirondack chairs and listening to the birds chirp. At night, we loved sitting around the cozy fire pit under the stars (and Regina made sure we had ample firewood to keep it going for hours!). I would highly recommend this property whether it be for a mini weekend vacation like ours, or week long getaway. You won't be disappointed!

Cozy, and comfortable
This place was very comfortable and welcoming. I really dont have anything bad to say about this home. It is very well stocked, extra towels, to soaps, shampoos, conditioners in the bathroom. Extra beach towels, sunscreen if it was needed. Ive stayed at some wyndham condos that arent as well stocked on supplies. Will definitely be returning for a longer stay.
