Wow! Great Host, Lovely Place

Wow! What an amazing host. I think Nick spoiled us for all other hosts. He had snacks, beverages and even treats for my dog:-)! Nick texted us to ensure we had all we needed. Check in was so easy. Place is lovely, and clean. It is convenient to a number of activities and restaurants. We got to go to a very nice beach that was about 15 minutes away, and were able to enjoy Mystic, which was about 25ish minutes away.I traveled with my adult niece and two pets. Nick, and his hospitality, helped to make it a wonderful experience. Highly recommend.

The Dollhouse

We stayed here while attending a family wedding and could not have been more pleased. The owners checked in with us after our arrival to be sure we had everything we needed. The Dollhouse is spotless and Nick and Nick have thought of every detail to make your stay comfortable. It exceeded our expectations and I highly recommend!

Should be 6 Stars

The Dollhouse is great . Owner Nick even greater. We 2 couples stayed 2 nights. You will not find a better equipped VRBO rental. Nor will you find a nicer host. Location is perfect and quiet. We plan to return next year at about the same time.

Lovely, Peaceful Stay

The Doll House is a beautiful home. Nick and Nick thought of everything, from snacks to dog toys. I was really impressed by how immaculate the house was. The neighborhood is a quiet dead end street, which was awesome. If you’re traveling to the Waterford area, you will love the Doll House.

My family and I were in town for the weekend to visit Mystic Aquarium and Seaport and The Dollhouse was absolutely perfect for all of our needs! Nick was very thoughtful, provided anything you may accidentally in the travel prep frenzy, neighborhood was quiet, relaxing and spacious and are already planning our next trip back! We didn't want to leave! Absolutely recommend!

This is the best you could ever stay at. The owner goes above and beyond for their guests and everything is just perfect. We stayed there twice so far and looking forward to many more because we have family we visit in the area. 5 stars isn’t enough. Definitely a place you want to stay at.

Newly Renovated Gem!

My husband and I, along with our two dogs, stayed at the Dollhouse over the Christmas holiday. The hosts Nick and Nick made sure the house was immaculately clean and ready prior to our arrival. The fully stocked kitchen of utensils and appliances with was very helpful with our holiday cooking. The hosts truly made it dog friendly, to include providing a a variety of items ranging from extra leashes to dog beds for use during our stay. The hosts were very responsive and helpful during our stay, periodically checking in with us via text to ensure we had everything we needed to enjoy our stay. Truly enjoyed our stay and will definitely stay again for future visits to the area!

The Dollhouse was awesome!

We stayed at the Dollhouse over the Thanksgiving holiday and had a wonderful few days for many reasons... The house was exactly as it was presented online, but even better, as it was freshly updated throughout the house and felt practically new... including a fully stocked kitchen that we needed to help with the Thanksgiving festivities... Nick was an excellent host and was sweet on our dog Cody by providing treats, a dog bed, and a couch cover (less stress for us when we catch him on the couch that he shouldn't be on... lol ) With this location close to Mystic, we are already planning a return during the summer to see what the area has to offer. Very confident we'd have a great place to relax and enjoy with what the Dollhouse has to offer.
