This was a beautiful property with a ton of charm and fun details throughout! It's also in a great location - very easy walking distance to shops and restaurants. My kid and I even spontaneously walked the 6 minutes to the drawbridge to see it go up at 40 minutes past the hour. I was also impressed by how well the AC worked in all the different parts of the house and found it easy to use. Thanks for a great stay!

Excellent Location

This property was great, located right on the end of downtown Mystic. The only reason for 3 stars was because there was construction going on that we weren’t made aware of until the day before we got there. We were unable to park in the parking spot during the day, and had to navigate under ladders and through contractors. Otherwise it was a great experience. We understand things happen, but it would have been good to know ahead of time. The hosts were very responsive, and like I said, great location.

College Tours & Aquarium

Super easy to park and get into the place with instructions sent in plenty of time. Kitchen had all of the things we needed. This is an old home -- the stairs are steep and the floors are all wonky. But it has lots of character and is comfortable! The house is right on the road so you can hear traffic, but at night it was quiet. Heating system was easy to figure out. Hot water was abundant and water pressure is excellent. Host responded immediately to my questions. The St Patrick's parade was there which was a surprise and made for a lively experience. Loved walking into town and having a dedicated parking spot.

Incredible location for families!

A very, very short walk to historic downtown Mystic, and just down the street from delicious restaurants and cafes! We loved not having to worry about parking and being able to go back and forth between the house and downtown. The house had everything our family needed, and was very comfortable. The floors are very sloped, but that didn’t impact our experience. Lots of stuff for very young kids and Michael and Kevin were wonderful hosts!

Last Minute Getaway

We had a great time at this Mystic house. We lucked out, snagging a last minute few days, at a very affordable rate for the area! The house was great - definitely on the older and quirky end. They weren't lying about the slanted floors...but it gives the house good character! It was a great size for our family of 5, with enough space to spread out if needed. The kitchen was small, but well stocked. The location was in perfect walking distance to downtown, to check out all the stores and restaurants. The driveway was a bit tough, depending on the traffic, so highly suggest backing into it if you can. Great weekend - highly recommend this place!

Second time for us, staying at this home. Each time we have enjoyed it more. Very clean and comfortable. The location is great, easy to get around. The house itself makes you feel welcomed.

Wonderful Weekend with Friends

The house is a very sweet old fashioned cottage but has all the important updates. The living/dining room is large and comfortable so it is great for spending time with friends and family.

Beautiful historic home

We loved our stay at this beautiful historic house in Mystic, located within close walking distance to the main street and river. Beds were comfortable and furnishings simple, historic, and tasteful. Be aware if you have mobility issues that, being a 150+ year old house, the floors are quite undulating! Thanks for a lovely experience.

Because i have lived in Mystic, i knew exactly where this property was and it checked all my boxes. The location is so close to all things downtown Mystic has to offer. You can park your car and walk everywhere. Parking in Mystic has always been a problem, however now there is a huge parking lot at the end of Cottrel Street.
