Beautiful home in a great location. We loved walking to restaurants and taking in the sights of Mystic. Our Westie loved walking around town and watching the squirrels from the patio door. The home was very clean and the kitchen had everything we needed to cook our Easter dinner.

Best little house in Mystic

House was cute and convenient to town. The bathrooms were clean except for moldy windows shade. The beds were comfortable and the kitchen was great- so nice to have milk, coffee and bagels! Loved the out door area - in the back. We’d stay again!

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!

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.
