Lovely comfortable home, with antique charm but beautifully updated with thoughtful touches. It is great for families and pets, stocked with games, baby equipment, books, and small but comfortable outdoor space. The beds were comfortable and cozy and everything felt clean and nice. The location is fabulous and easily walkable to downtown and very close to all attractions. I highly recommend and hope to visit again.

The perfect stay

We absolutely loved the Dollhouse. My husband and I ‘eloped’ in Mystic with an intimate group and this was the perfect place to stay. The house was the perfect size for us and the location is right in walking distance of downtown. Kerri was an amazing host as well (the best I’ve experienced so far!).

A Great Family Time in Lovely Mystic

We really enjoyed staying in this charming home. It had plenty of rooms for gathering, a kitchen that worked for family cooking, a dining table that seated 8, and comfortable bedrooms. We enjoyed the decor as well as its functionality. We could walk to many shops and to the Mystic drawbridge, which the two grandsons particularly enjoyed, along with the nearby ice cream shop. I highly recommend staying here.

Kerri’s home is a quiet oasis and perfectly located to both downtown Mystic and the Amtrak station. Her home is also charming and decorated just as the pictures described. She was so kind as a host and ready to make my stay perfect. Skip the other options in Mystic and stay at Kerri’s home - You won’t be disappointed. #BestStayEver
