Beautiful property in a stellar location! Easy, easy walk to Main Street Mystic.All the amenities you could ask for. Comfy beds & super clean. Great a/c in every room, even upstairs, which can be difficult to accomplish in these historic homes. Fantastic decor - quality furnishings, not that generic grey, cheap furniture so many rental homes have...plus some great whimsical touches. Parking is easy and convenient. Host is super easy to get ahold of & responsive. House really is just beautiful. This home was built by an an ancestor of ours & it's evident this owner refurbished it with a lot of TLC! Gurdon woyld be proud! Thanks for a great stay, Gerard - we'll definitely be back!

I booked this for my parents 50th wedding anniversary. Gerard was great at communicating and allowed for them to have an earlier check in and later check out. My parents and friends said the place was clean and very cute. It was in a perfect location. They had a great time and I would definitely rent from them again.

Perfect Location in Mystic

This historic house is beautifully decorated and had plenty of room. It’s within walking distance of downtown Mystic. We enjoyed the back patio on sunny days and loved walking to our favorite coffee spot “Lis” every morning. This is our second time staying at this house and will always try to reserve it when we return. The hosts are wonderful and responsive.

Perfect Mystic property

This is by far the best VRBO property we have ever rented. Perfect location to down town and seaport museum. Easy walking. The townhouse was extremely well equipped, clean with high quality bedding and towels, washer and dryer, etc. And Gerard from management stayed in close contact with us.

Great Stay at Avery

We had a simply wonderful stay at the Avery property in Mystic. The house was impeccably clean as was Gerard’s other property we rented last August. The house is very comfortable and has a great dining area! The bedrooms are comfortable as are the bathrooms. The location was great and we had a very short walk to the bridge and shops as well as to the viewing areas for the boat parade! We will most definitely rent from Great Gull again and again!

Great House In Great Location

I booked the property based off of reviews and our stay did not disappoint. The house was as advertised, a great location just a short and enjoyable walk to Downtown Mystic. It’s also just a short ride from the Seaport and Aquarium. The property manager was excellent and communicated with us every day. I highly recommend this comfortable and convenient home as a perfect place to stay. Thank you!

Fantastic

We stayed at the Avery house for 2 nights and I cannot say enough good about the place. Everything was spotless, well kept and well appointed. Everything you would ever need is there. It is only a couple blocks walk to all the restaurants and shops and sightseeing activities. Communication with manager was awesome. I highly recommend staying there!
