Fabulous experience. We wish the weather had been better as the backyard space was perfect for relaxing and bocci — alas rainstorms impacted our opportunities.Wonderful communication with the host.
The location was great for visiting Stonington and surrounding small towns, as well as being a walkable neighborhood with a home goods shop next door! Anna, the landlord, was very responsive to our questions. The home was charming, but somewhat lacking in privacy and security, due to the window coverings that allowed cars passing by to see directly into the main floor. The beds were very comfortable with nice linens. The upstairs bathroom could be improved by replacing the tub/shower with a stand alone shower, because the faucet spout was difficult to operate and felt loose, although there was good shower spray once the faucet was on. There were several spaces inside to watch TV or to read, and two comfortable balconies for enjoying the fresh air. I would recommend Anna’s house to travelers to CT and RI, as it is centrally located to Mystic and other small towns.
Anna's property is beautifully decorated and very clean. It was the perfect setting for a Girls Weekend with old friends. We loved relaxing on the deck with views of the water, and it was very conveniently located to all the spots we wanted to go to- wineries, Mystic, and of course great restaurants in the Borough. I would definitely stay here again!

Thank you for this review and being such wonderful guests.
While attending the wooden boat show, we needed a place that was close by. The home was comfortable and had all necessary amenities. There was a lovely back yard and porches. There was easy access to local sites.

This house is in a quaint little town with lots of history. Lots of eateries right near by and Mystic just a 10-15 min drive. Easy to find, comfortable, clean and coastal. The only negative were the window blinds weren't the best. If i ever come back would definitely stay here again.
Great location to walk to town and see the sunset on the water at night from the upstairs deck. House was clean and perfect size for our family. I was nervous about being so close to the train tracks for the sound at night but couldnt hear it at all. My toddler slept like a rock.

Great location, lovely house and property! My friend and I stayed here for a long weekend for an event in Rhode Island and very much enjoyed our stay. The house is very clean, well-kept and spacious. The back deck was a great place for relaxing out in the nice weather. The house is within driving distance to plenty of local restaurants and shopping (though on the weekends things did close early). We did not attempt to walk anywhere from the house, but probably could have if we had more time to check out the immediate area. We had zero complaints and would stay here again!

I want to be very honest with a review of this property as many others were not. This property was misrepresented. It stated AC the only AC was in the bedroom. It was very hot on the main floor. It’s summer with temps of 90 degrees. So those tenants renting in August beware! Also they neglected to mention the train in the backyard that goes by every 15 minutes. There’s a TV upstairs but it’s not connected that’s ridiculous.I love the Mystic/Stonington area but this property did it work for us.
this property is sparsley furnished with mismatched furniture that comes right out of a thrift store. There is no AC in the living room. The temperature when we walked in was 83 degrees!!! Who doesnt have AC in living room in this day and age! House must have been shut down for awhile, although we were not allowed into house til 4 pm, claiming cleaning service needed to 4 to complete house. No instructions re trash days, etc., kitchen had no salad bowls, two very small pots, no broiler pan, etc., etc. Train runs right behind house. Few hangers, and one wash cloth for two people plus one bath towel and one hand towel. I would definitely not recommend a stay here.

Communication with owner difficult & no washer
House was clean and decorated nicely but communication with the owner very difficult. I had to contact owner multiple times for check in information, and finally received it at 4:15pm, whereas check in is at 4pm. We were there for 17 nights - 04/19 thru 05/06 - and the washer was broken when we tried our first wash and it never got fixed. Backyard beautiful but overgrown and was told it was because they don't mow the lawn in May, however I asked about the mowing in April! Toilet was leaking upstairs but did get fixed within 2 days. Train runs every 10-15 minutes immediately behind backyard, so can be noisy if windows are open. Location very good to Stonington and Mystic. It really is a lovely home but owner lives on the West coast - 3 hours behind - so communication difficult.
House was a described. Good location. Our first night there we were siting in living room and the GFCI outlet kept clicking on and off repeatedly. We had not used outlet at all. Unplugged the coffee maker that was plugged in when we arrived. Still going off and on. Looked for breaker box to turn off. Could not locate so I called homeowner. She never called back only messaged after a while. Was going to send her mother to unlock basement where breaker box was. By this time it was almost 1100 pm. The mother lived over an hour away. By the time she arrived it was almost 130. Breaker box got turned off eventually but this could have been a bad electrical fire.The electrician came out to replace outlet following day. My issue is there was not one word of thanks from this hostess. She never called only messaged. A serious issue requires a phone call. By the time the situation was resolved we didn’t get to bed until after 230-300. And not one word of thanks from her.
We have used VRBO a lot to book house rentals and have never been disappointed until now. I do not feel that the pictures accurately details the house, from the pictures it looks like the house on the water, it is not- There was on a/c in the bedrooms, tv only in the living room, upstairs tv not connected to anything-
If someone needed to use the bathroom, had to go in the bedroom- deck on first floor is under deck for upstairs but has slots in it, when it rained you could not sit outside-
We are renting house in Nashville in a couple of weeks, from VRBO, hope we are not disappointed-
The property was great! You cannot beat the location and it has a pleasing layout. The rooms were spacious and we were grateful for the quality window units as it was really hot. Everything was spic and span. The back patio is a nice place to relax and the upper deck is also a fun touch. Anna was very helpful and communicative. We absolutely recommend staying here!
We stayed here for a long weekend in Stonington with a young child and her grandparents for a family getaway. The place was super clean and the owner was very responsive. It's easy access to a lot of places around Stonington and we also spent some time in mystic. Would highly recommend!
My husband and I, along with another couple, just returned from a long weekend in Stonington. We loved how walkable everything was from this rental. We enjoyed a couple of water front dinners with gorgeous views of the sunset. The rental was stocked with everything we needed for our visit. We also enjoyed nights on the balcony after a long day of exploring.
Mystic is just a short drive away, as is Misquamicut State Beach in Rhode Island.
We are already talking about returning next year.
