Mystic weekend!

Property is outstanding!! Amenities are great; cleanliness is superb and the environment is quiet and peaceful.

Great location!

I stayed at this house with my mom and aunt in Oct 2022. The house is two stories and this rental unit is on the ground floor with a separate entrance on the front porch. The house is in a nice, quiet neighborhood in a fantastic location just a few short blocks walking distance to shopping, pubs and restaurants. There was also a CVS within walking distance. The beds were comfy, plenty of hot water for showers and fresh, clean linens. I would stay here again. Loved our girls trip to Mysitc and time together!

Great getaway

The property was clean and cozy with plenty of room for our family of four. The property management was very responsive when we called because there was a cold draft coming into our son's room from the A/C window unit. Someone came to remove the unit the same day. Upstairs neighbors were playing loud music our last morning there, but to be fair, we have an autistic son who can be loud at times, so they may have been trying to drown out his noise. Property is very walkable to downtown Mystic and a short drive to other area attractions.

Don't believe everything you see

The rooms were actually much smaller than they appeared in the posted photos. The beds were not comfortable. There were very few outlets. Most things were hooked into extension cords.

Mike, Thank you for sharing your recent experience with us, and we apologize for not meeting your expectations during your stay. Regarding your concern about room size, we've thoroughly reviewed the situation and confirmed that our photographer did not use wide-angle shots to create a misleading impression of larger rooms. We regret any misunderstanding and assure you that it was never our intention to misrepresent our historic home. While we may not have multiple outlets on every wall due to the home's age and layout, we do our best to ensure easy access to power throughout the house in a safe and responsible manner. Guest satisfaction remains our top priority, and we genuinely appreciate your feedback as it helps us continuously improve and uphold our Premier Hosting status on VRBO. Jason Owner, PMI East Lyme

Dance comp at Foxwoods

We left the location in the property itself. It was extremely difficult trying to get in the key pad. It did not work most of the time. The television was very difficult to use and we gave up so that was a bummer. We had children with us that would’ve liked to relax and watch some TV or watch some thing in the morning when they woke up and we were not able to get it to work at all.

Hi Georgia, Sorry about any inconvenience you may have had during your stay. We always strive to ensure every guest has a great experience. We changed the electronic lock batteries the next day as soon as we were made aware of the issue. Sometimes, those Roku TVs just need to be rebooted. Again, no excuses, and we apologize for the trouble. Best regards, Ed
