A great meeting spot for families with kids

I came from NY with my 8 yr old and 5 yr old and met up w my sister from RI and her 5 yr old. We had a nice overnight at the cottage, playing with the Legos and reading books, sharing a meal after a day exploring the aquarium and shops. We hope to come back at some point! Thanks for a great, charming spot!

Great location and cute house!

My friends and I booked this spot for my bachelorette weekend and it was perfect! Very clean and the owners were easy to get in touch with. It was a short walk to downtown Mystic and had great views of the river. We could drive 5 min to mystic village as well! Awesome weekend!

Charming house, great location

Family get together at this charming house. Great gathering area for playing board and card games. Open Kitchen is well appointed and great for cooking and chatting. The location is lovely too with walkable distances to shops and seaport. But not too busy when we were visiting (winter). Host responded promptly to our questions.

Outstanding historic home!

We were in the area for a visit to local college, and we splurged on an overnight. So glad we did! Spotlessly clean, beautifully restored historical property right in the heart of a neighborhood and in walking distance to downtown. Comfortable beds, art supplies, games, and a well-appointed kitchen. Our daughter didn’t choose the college, but we will be back just to stay here again! Thank you for a truly special property.

Mom and daughters weekend getaway

We stayed for only one night. The intention was to paint wine glasses (originally we were supposed to do this in 2021). Unfortunately, I forgot to check the paint, which of course, dried out. So, we ended up sitting around, drinking wine, laughing and having fun. The house was very cozy, comfy. We walked into town to window shop. Very nice!

UCONN Graduation Family Weekend

Absolutely wonderful cottage. The owners have provided a very warm and welcoming environment with all of the comforts of home. Extra bonus is the location as the property is in downtown so you can walk to all that Mystic has to offer. The hosts were a delight to do business with as well and our family would return for another stay!
