This was the perfect home for our family’s stay in Mystic. Plenty of space, plenty of parking, a spacious yard and amazing location. James was amazingly responsive to all of requests. You won’t be disappointed with your stay in Mystic with this home!

The filter puts it as having a hot tub. It does not. Then you go to listing and it says spa/whirpool tub, it does not have either.
Property is beautiful, warm, manager is friendly and helpful. Couple items missing though he was responsive upon hearing about the missing items.
Overall great place after we got over the disappointment over no hot tub.

Loved the place, one recommendation is suggest using Mystic address vs Groton address.

Cousins yearly gathering! This year we chose Mystic. James was quick to respond to my questions and he was very accommodating. The home is charming, clean and the many twin beds was a plus! The round table sold me as it allows for great conversations, game playing, etc. The house is a quick walk (downhill) to downtown….all uphill on the way back! Loved our stay!

The house was perfect for our annual mini college reunion. It was a nice walk to downtown Mystic. After our fabulous dinner at Mix, the uphill walk back to the house was a great way to burn some calories! The house was very clean and had ample room to chill out and catch up with friends. We would have liked to sit outside around the firepit, but it was pouring rain. Next time!

This home is perfect for a group visiting the area. A beautiful walk to downtown. The house itself is cozy with any amenity you may need. Spacious backyard for playing corn hole, which the owner provided, a fire pit and grill for cooking out. The owner also provided refreshments waiting in the refrigerator upon our arrival. The whole experience was wonderful!

I can't say enough good things about this stay! We were very comfortable and had everything we needed for a week, even with babies and kids in our group! The area around the house was safe and very pleasant for meandering walks. We all enjoyed easy access to restaurants and events happening in historic Mystic. Thank you to the owners for their hospitality.

We really enjoyed our stay, it had everything we needed in a clean and spacious atmosphere. It’s a quick walk into town, and the fire pit was wonderful to enjoy. Thanks for hosting James!

The house was exactly as described, had everything we needed, and even exceeded expectations in several ways. The owner was very responsive to inquiries. We had 9 adults in town for a graduation and the sleeping arangements were very accommodating. Downtown Mystic was a .5 mile walk (this did include a rather steep incline). We spent a lot of time in the yard while enjoying the outdoors and the firepit. We walked to town nightly. We highly recommend this location and wouldn't hesitate to stay here again.

Rented this house for a weekend trip with the family. Upon arrival, the home was extremely clean and some beverages were waiting for us in the fridge (this was a first for us and we’ve been renting VRBOs for many years), a wonderful touch! Plenty of space for my family of 5 to relax, eat, and sleep. The solo stove and comfortable Adirondack chairs in the spacious, fenced in yard were perfect for a relaxing fire. Plenty of delicious restaurants to walk to in downtown Mystic. Lots of neighborhood streets with beautiful historical homes, easily accessible to walk the dog. My daughter said, “let’s make this an Easter tradition every year!” I think we just might!! We highly recommend this home for your next trip to Mystic!

This was a great place for two families with 4 children under 10 to visit their grandparents for Thanksgiving. The dining table was able to fit all 10 of us comfortably and we really enjoyed being able to interact with everyone. The attic space was awesome for the children to play independently. Overall the house was clean, well provisioned, and very comfortable. We hope to stay here again for future visits.

What an awesome stay we had! Mystic is charming, walkable, and this lovely house was as perfect location for us as we navigated the various locations of the Mystic Film Fest. Everything was clean, bright, orderly, and extra drinks in the fridge. Thank you!!

Coast Guard Academy visit
We came to visit our child who attends the USCGA. The property was about 15 min from the school, near shopping and great restaurants, and a good get away. The owner was easy to communicate with, and I would definitely stay there again.

pleasant convenient mystic stay
Very pleased with this spacious VRBO conveniently close and walkable to downtown mystic. The house provided all we needed included two large bedrooms, 1 small bedroom and a loft on 3rd floor. Friendly host and responsive. Outdoor bbq, big lawn, and a fire pit is a big plus, along with yard games. The mystic town as so much to offer as well so this location very convenient. If/when back in mystic will try it again, thanks James,

Week in Mystic 2021
All good, the weather wasn’t the best but the house had lots of games to keep everyone occupied. Location was great for our needs. Thank goodness there was air conditioning, it was a very humid week. The owners were great.

Property had everything for a great stay!
Property was as advertised, walking distance to downtown Mystic. Each time we went looking for something we found it in multitude (firewood for pit, propane for grill, kitchen items, consumables, yard games, etc), very prepared and detailed.
House although older build was very well appointed and owners had good taste in decor.
The only item that is not five star is the road can be busy during the week.
Thank you to the owners for their follow up to ensure we had everything we needed and making local recommendations.

Beautiful house, great location
I would buy this house if I could. Absolutely perfect location for exploring Mystic (and a morning walk to Mystic). The house has all the amenities you could want (washer/dyer was a must after all the swimming and walking) and is super cute to boot.

Great place to stay!
My wife and I stayed here with our adult children and their families. House is spacious, clean, with plenty of different rooms to hang out in. There were 7 of us and we could all fit around the dining room table at the same time. We walked to downtown Mystic from the house (about a mile, although uphill on the way back). James was super communicative. We would definitely stay here again!

Perfectly located and appointed!
James’ home in Mystic was lovely! From his clear communications, to his welcome beverages, to his having just the right provisions that we may have forgotten - our stay was perfection. Our family reconnected here after being all over the map and we were able to have dinners all together around that wonderful round table and catchup around the outdoor firepit. Add to that the ability to walk into town for a bite to eat or some shopping - this is the ideal spot. Hopeful we’ll find ourselves there again one day.

Great House for Friends
We enjoyed breakfast around the big table, which is perfect for large groups. Plenty of space for a group of friends to hang out and have somewhere to retreat to. We enjoyed this property and would return again.

Great! Great! Super Great!
Thank you for everything! This property was perfect for our family to step into a comfortable home and be together, with the availability of the near-by Mystic attractions. We loved gathering at that enormous round dining table (genius idea!) and the fire pit. Our host provided a lovely, well maintained home with many thoughtful touches. Super clean! James, I speak for us all- it was all much appreciated!

Successful Surprise Birthday
This property was perfect for my boyfriend’s surprise birthday weekend with his friends. It fit 10 of us comfortably! The downtown area was close and had plenty of options for food. A bonus for having the casinos less than 30 minutes from the property. James made sure to answer all my questions and even give me some recommendations on the dining options nearby. My boyfriend and friends wouldn’t stop saying how great of a time they were having!
