The house is really beautiful- perfect for our group of 2 families of 4 with little kids. It’s spacious and clean with all new bathrooms and a very nice kitchen. We especially enjoyed the backyard with a hammock and pergola- great for unwinding at the end of the day and stargazing at night.

Very pretty house. The kitchen was well equipped. Nice and cosy to hang out in. Bedrooms and bathrooms all worked well for the 5 of us. We hung out in the seating area in the backyard. The house was very clean and well maintained. Excellent location. Easy walk to downtown area. Short drive to other attractions.

We very much enjoyed our stay in "the Mystic house" as my niece liked to call it. With 5 adults we had plenty of room to spread out. Very clean and had most everything we needed. Loved the front porch and backyard. The location is excellent, walk-able to downtown Mystic, the seaport, etc if you wish to avoid the hassle of finding parking. So many excellent restaurants here too. We would definitely stay here again on our next trip to the area.

A great home & location!

We stayed at the house while visiting our son who attends the United States Coast Guard Academy. Our group included a 79-year-old and a 14-year-old and everyone in between. House was perfect! We were able to entertain some of his friends one evening very comfortably. We hope to be back!

Wonderful property

4 of us stayed in this property and were very comfortable. There was plenty of room to move around and the neighborhood is very quiet at night. The beds were super comfy and the linens… oh the linens! I have to go out and buy this brand because I liked them so much! Instructions in the house were very clear - no issues. it was not a cheap stay, but as they say - you get what you pay for. This property was well stocked and had very nice accommodations. Would definitely stay here again if I found myself in the area.

Very Clean and Cozy

We stayed at this beautifully decorated and clean property for a long weekend to attend a wedding in July in Mystic. The location was ideal to walk downtown to restaurants and shops and even to the church for the wedding. The kitchen was spacious and had everything we needed. We also enjoyed relaxing in the quiet and comfy back yard that has cute areas For morning coffee or a meal outdoors. We were amazed and delighted with the comfort, beauty and thoughtful details throughout this property. The neighborhood is quiet despite being close to town. This is a real gem.

Mystic getaway

We loved our short three night stay at this lovely home in Mystic! What a beautiful, clean and well maintained home. We took our children to the Mystic Aquarium, Drawbridge Icecream, the playground and walking up and down the main street and into the various shops. Everything was so walkable from this great location. The house itself was just like how it came across on the VRBO listing- clean, well appointed, very comfortable sleeping arrangements, beautiful yard and deck spaces and clear directions. The owners left us two bottles of wine as well as a memorable engraved wine glass. What a fabulous getaway we had, we definitely plan to return.

Mystic House

This house is amazing! Everything about it was perfect. It is beautiful & exceptionally maintained. The great room, with the kitchen, dining room & living room all in the same space made being together easy. We were a party of 8 staying at the house and couldn't have been more comfortable. The house was fully stocked with everything from towels, bathroom supplies and kitchen items. It came with 3 different types of coffee makers to satisfy all coffee drinkers! The location was literally an 8 minute, leisurely walk to the heart of Mystic. Mystic itself is a fantastic town with exceptional food & shopping. And the team who manages the property could not have been more responsive. A message to them on the VRBO app was returned within minutes. If we ever make it back to Mystic, which we really hope to do, this is the only place I will stay. Thank you for providing us with a home base for our wedding weekend. We made such special memories at this wonderful house! The Tobins

Great Mystic rental

I've been getting a VRBO yearly for 17 years. This was one of the best equipped and supplied rentals we've ever stayed at. It was very clean and tidy like a brand-new home. The hosts were easy to communicate with and any info we needed was provided in a binder. It was a great location with many attractions within walking distance. It has plenty of off-street parking and a nice back yard to spend the evening.

Christmas get away

The hosts were extremely helpful and responsive to all my questions and requests.My family enjoyed our holiday vacation in the house. The location of the house was great.My only complaint is that there was a lot of black (cat?) hair in the living area. We had small crawling children and the hair was a concern.

Mystic stay

The house was very nice. Close enough to walk down town. Plenty of room for our family 3 couples and 2 kids. Only issue was there was a strange smell. Kind of a skunky smell. My husband couldn’t smell it my daughter thought it was a musty smell.
