We had a lovely time. The host was so kind to check on us during a local storm. The house was equipped with all kinds of thoughtful little touches to make our stay more comfortable!

It was a great house for us five seniors. Very homey, peaceful, a good amount of cookware, the appliances worked well and close enough for access to the museums and of course the famous Mystic Pizza restaurant. By the way the house special pizza was delicious!When I had questions the host replied reasonably fast. We all commented how it was so nice to stay there.

This was the perfect home base for our Mystic vacation. It’s super close to everything, which made it easy for us to put our 2 year old down for mid-day naps. For being so close to downtown, the house offered a lot of privacy and a nature-y feel. The home was also very well equipped between the kitchen and the toys/games/books that our kids (5 and 2) loved. The host was very communicative and gave us a heads up before check-in of some of the quirks of the house.

Everything was clean and cozy. Friendly touches throughout. More space than I anticipated. It has an "old place remodeled" vibe that I like. Definitely feels like you're in the forest.

Quiet, quaint, cottage style home with more room than we expected. Very clean and comfortable home located a short drive to downtown but on a quiet wooded lot adjacent to a nature preserve. Literally the perfect location for our family of five. We could go see the area attractions and downtown by day and retire comfortably for family time in the evening. Host was excellent with communication and check in and out was easy. We had a couple minor concerns that came up with the property and they were resolved promptly and overall a great stay. If you are looking for a quiet and cozy location this is a good choice.

This was a wonderful house in a great location. We loved how quiet it was but still only a short drive to downtown Mystic and surrounding attractions. The house was very clean and well stocked. The kids loved playing with the toys and reading the books. The house was very spacious and the kids had lots of room to play on the hot and rainy days when we were stuck inside. Both Mary and Liz were very helpful especially during an unfortunate storm related power outage.

The house was lovely and had everything we could need for a family trip. The games/toys/books for kids were a hit. They had a step stool in the bathroom and a door that separated the bedroom section of the house for night time quiet. The kitchen had everything you need to cook - it felt like someone has actually lived there. The owners were quick to respond and very flexible about checkin/checkout. The checkout list was almost non-existent. It was a relaxing place to stay while still being very close to Mystic and nearby beaches. Highly recommend!

Nice Stay in Mystic

Mary’s home was wonderful. Great location and very clean. Better stocked than anyplace we have stayed before. Mary was easy to communicate with and was ready to help with anything needed. The house is a real gem. We hope to stay again sometime. The location was great. Private, quiet yet easy to get to the attractions.

Great location!

We loved Mary’s place! It was perfect for our group which included 4 adults and 2 kids (4 and 7). There were so many books for the kids (and adults too!) to enjoy and they also loved the toys! The house was comfortable and clean and communication with Mary was so easy. She thought of every detail. It’s also close to all the local attractions but on a nice quiet street. I would highly recommend staying here!

Great spot in Mystic

Mary is a very communicative host. Check in was easy The house is darling. The back patio has so many bird feeders which makes it really fun to watch. We grilled out which was nice. Very easy to get to town. One note, the 2nd bathroom is next to the kitchen and not near the 2nd and 3rd bedrooms. Loved our stay.

Most organized Host ever!

Mary's home is a sweet getaway in a country setting just 3 mins to Mystic by car. The house had everything you could possibly need. Mary was one of the nicest and most responsive hosts I've ever dealt with on VRBO. The home itself is a perfect size! The layout is great with bedrooms separated from the main living area. We really loved our stay there and would stay again in a heartbeat.

Wonderful Home!

What a great trip to Mystic and this home was amazing! The location is ideal - away from downtown traffic, yet only a 4/5 minute drive from all the attractions. Beautiful home fully equipped for cooking your fresh seafood dinners, enjoying reading in the lovely sunroom or spacious patio, and has everything you need and more. Mary is absolutley wonderful and was so helpful with area questions before we even arrived. We will definitely be back again.

Lives up to the hype!

Adding my 5 star review to the list of many! The Little House is just as wonderful as the listing and other reviews make it out to be and Mary is an exceptional host. We stayed for a long weekend and were able to enjoy so many of Mystic’s attractions thanks to the great location. We’ve stayed in several VRBO properties before and the Little House was far and above the cleanest as well as best cared for we’ve experienced. Our 3 children were all daydreaming about living there forever!

Wonderful experience

Mary is the perfect host! She accommodated our needs before during and after our stay. The house layout was ideal for our group. Laundry room right off the entry, bbq patio with umbrella table and chairs, sunroom for dining and post dinner card games, seperste ac units for each bedroom, well equipped kitchen, privacy and nature located 5 minutes from groceries and restaurant. We could not have been more satisfied with our stay. Thanknyou Mary for everything!!

Closet to Everything!

Our stay at Mary's home was lovely. It served as home base for my annual girls' trip for myself and 2 daughters and provided everything that we could have needed. My children (2 & 4) loved the toys and spent much of our free time enjoying them, especially the picture bingo! The yard was private and well cared for. I enjoyed morning coffee on the patio and the variety of wild life! We visited the seaport and aquarium; ordered in from Mystic Pizza (for delivery after 4 p.m.!), and found Dog Watch, which was a great/close eatery with a kids play area! We would totally stay at here again in the future! Thanks, Mary!

Birdwatchers Paradise close to everything Mystic

It was perfect. We were looking for a short get away that provided some fun things to do as a family, but also a quiet place to retreat. That is exactly what the little house offered. We spent hours enjoying the birds both from the window seat in the sunroom and from the back patio with a cup of tea or coffee in hand. There are several bird feeders on the property and if you have a keen eye you'll see humming birds, woodpeckers, nuthatches, sparrows, cardinals, blue jays and more. The house was clean and had everything we needed. The kitchen was well stocked, the beds were very comfortable, and the towels were soft and plentiful. Mary responded immediately with answers to any questions we had. She also has the house labeled so you can figure out which light switch turns on which light and where to find everything. The house is only minutes from Mystic Seaport, Mystic Aquarium, Olde Mistick and downtown Mystic, all of which we enjoyed visiting. We also traveled a little further to Niantic to the Book Barn (huge used book store). The only downside was that we had to leave. I would happily return to this little house and bird watching paradise.

Utterly Charming

Utterly charming cottage that backed to woods (we saw several deer); gleaming hardwood floors, lots of windows, large kitchen, very spacious. Loved the glass panel door to the bedroom wing and the built-in bookcases in the hallway which were well stocked with books and movies! You’ll gravitate to the bright sunroom/dining room with windows on three sides and a view of the many bird feeders which Mary has kept well stocked, summoning dozens of feathered friends to our continual delight. It. Was. Magical. Home was very clean and well kept; beds were super comfy. Mary is a terrific and responsive host. Location is perfect - just minutes from downtown Mystic. Loved our stay!

Amazing Rental Property

This house was amazing. The back yard is beautiful, and so many birds watch. It's private and relaxing. And so close to the Aquarium and Olde Mystic Village. We had a wonderful stay, and felt right at home. Mary made us feel she would be easy to reach if we needed her for anything.
