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.

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.
