3-bedroom vacation home just a 5-min walk to Main Street, Mystic

*PLEASE READ THE ENTIRE OVERVIEW & DESCRIPTION BEFORE BOOKING!

The Iconic Dutch Bell is a historic home built in 1906 to be the waiting room and ticket sales for the Trolley riders when Randall's Wharf was the Trolley barn. Completely renovated and updated in 2021, this property offers the ultimate standard in downtown living with privacy and sophistication and the vibrant pulse of Mystic just steps away.

Mystic's beautiful coastline is where you can find your ideal getaway spot at this lovely three-bedroom retreat. Situated less than a 5-min walk to Main Street, Mystic (Drawbridge, Ice Cream) and steps away from some of the regions most renowned restaurants, bakeries and nightlife, you'll be immersed in the rich maritime history and quaint New England atmosphere.

Keep connected with the free WiFi, and enjoy the convenience of a fully stocked kitchen, complete with a stove, oven, refrigerator, grill, and all the necessary appliances and utensils to prepare delicious meals.

When it's time to explore, venture just an 8-minute drive to the Seaport, a 19-minute drive to the Foxwoods Resort Casino or a 24-minute drive to the Mohegan Sun Casino for exciting entertainment, gaming or award-winning golf courses. Back at the property, keep the little ones entertained with the selection of games and books, or take advantage of the provided baby gate and travel crib for a stress-free family vacation.

Each room is equipped with smart TV's and Amazon Alexa/Echo's so you can check on the weather or play sleep sounds or white noise. Out back, we've created a new, bluestone private patio nestled in the trees for al fresco dining. Off the front you will find a side deck for grilling and a beautifully landscaped area with a year-round fire pit for seating, relaxing and people-watching!

Please note : Due to the proximity to local restaurants, eateries and bars, there may be residual noise/music durning nicer weather. If you are experiencing louder than average noise please notify us via cell. There is a noise ordinance for downtown Mystic on weekends and we can help alleviate it quickly. We have a ring doorbell installed on the rear entrance which is video enabled when guests arrive or depart. We use this feature only in the event of an incident and they are deleted every 30 days. If you have a concern please let us know in advance.

We were here for a girls' weekend November 2025. Jon was fantastic to work with before, during, and after our stay, responding quickly with any questions we had. The house was spotless on arrival. It is beautifully and comfortably decorated. The kitchen was fully stocked with dishes, cutlery, glassware, and pots and pans. The binder contained excellent information about the house and surrounding area. Everything we did was walkable: the museum, shopping area, and multiple restaurants. Parking both behind the house and in the adjacent condo visitors spots (which happened to be available) were very convenient. There was some noise both nights due to the bar next door, but this was out of anyone's control. Overall, we loved our stay here!

We love our annual stay at thw Dutch Bell! The location is perfect for walking to Main Street to enjoy our favorite spots including Mystic Pizza and Sift Bakery. Parking at the property is super convenient, which is a plus. The home is incredibly comfortable for our group (4 adults, 3 kids), and we enjoy spending time together in the open space 1st floor. The sleeping arrangements are super comfortable and each bedroom having it's own full bathroom is perfect for us. We hope to stay again next year!

Overall my family had a great time and enjoyed the property. It's nicely updated, good amenities like the fire pit and a great location. Some things that could be improved was better cleaning, cobwebs in some places, soap despenser empty in 1 bedroom and none of the TV remotes had working batteries.All relatively minor things. That being said Jon was responsive and easy to communicate with and we enjoyed our trip.

Beautiful stay in the heart of Mystic

Very tasteful and well appointed unit within easy walking distance of everything Mystic has to offer. The location was fantastic, just step out the door and you are in the middle of everything. The combination of beds and bedrooms worked perfectly for five adult family members traveling together. The house was fully stocked with everything that we needed, the host was communicative but not intrusive. Would 100% recommend as a place to stay for a lovely visit in Mystic!

Return to Mystic and Dutch Bell

This is our second stay at the Dutch Bell, and we really enjoyed coming back. The house is beautiful (looks as nice as the pictures), and everything Mystic is walkable! For awareness, the house is next to a restaurant/bar, so it can get a bit noisy at closing time, but it obviously wasn’t bad enough to prevent us from returning (and would do so again). Jon and team were great hosts, and the communication was fantastic - can’t say enough good things.

Beautiful house close to town

My family had a great week long stay in the dutch bell! In one direction we were able to walk into town, and in the other direction we took quieter waterfront walks through a charming marina. There was a lot to love about the house but highlights were the convenient parking and a bathroom for every bedroom. Hope to return! Thank you, Jon!
