About this house rental

This historic, cheerful, 4 bedrooms/3-bathroom gem, is located on a quiet side street just steps from the vibrant Downtown. Enjoy Mystic in Victorian splendor! Perched high on the hill, with partial river views, it is surrounded by elegant gardens great for entertaining or just relaxing. The sunny interior, was designed and furnished by our own Design Team. Perfect for families or friendly getaways. Return to a forgotten age of daring sea captains and prosperous merchants!

Recently renovated and updated by our Design Team, this charming historic Victorian with modern luxuries is located only steps from Downtown. The first-floor layout was designed with family gatherings in mind. From the chef's kitchen and ample dining area to the family room, the space flows through the front patio, surrounding gardens and the private deck in back.
Perfect for families, friends and foodies. Whether preparing your own meals, or picking up take out, from the best restaurants in town, it's the perfect inside/outside entertaining space!
This house has the best of both worlds: sunlit indoor rooms, meticulously restored and furnished to embrace its history, and the splendid outdoor space for entertaining, reading, working or just lying around.
The kitchen is fully stocked with all the basics and equipment you need - we provide essentials like coffee, tea, creamer along with basic condiments. There are four spacious bedrooms, six beds and three full bathrooms. One bedroom, and one full bathroom are located on the first floor. The entire home has high speed WIFI access. There is a smart TV in the family room, and one in each bedroom.
The family and dining rooms are spacious and cozy, and a great place to enjoy gathering with family and friends.

Guests have the entire house to themselves. There are 4 bedrooms. One bedroom, with a queen bed, is located on the first floor. There are 3 bedrooms on the second floor. Two second floor bedrooms have queen beds, and the third bedroom has a queen bed and a trundle bed (which can open to two single beds). We have three full bathrooms. One is located on the first floor and two located on the second floor. There are two outside gardens, and a cozy front porch. The well-equipped kitchen is surrounded by a spacious dining room, family room, and direct access to both lovely gardens.

We are always available to guests. Before, during, and after the stay.

Our location is incredibly well-suited to the quintessential Mystic experience. The historic downtown is a few blocks away and the wonderful Mystic Seaport is less then a 15 minute walk. We're so close to Mystic Pizza (from the Julia Roberts movie Pretty Woman) you can pick up a few pies and enjoy them back home before the cheese stops bubbling! Then there's the Mystic Aquarium, the diner, and a handful of things to see, do, eat, and drink. We share detailed recommendations and favorite picks with guests upon booking.

We are located on a quiet side street, just steps away from the famous Mystic Downtown. Our driveway is steep and narrow. It can accommodate two small to mid size cars. You may need to drop off passengers before pulling all the way in. There is usually parking on the street as well.

There are a few steps to access the front porch and enter the house. There is a bedroom and full bathroom on the first floor. The other bedrooms and bathrooms are on 2nd floor with steep stairs.

The outside areas are scenic (limited views of the river and drawbridge) and spectacular. We ask that when using our outside spaces, you respect our neighbor's right to quiet enjoyment.
The most important House Rule is, respect our neighbors and community. Mystic is a quaint, coastal New England town. As hosts, and guests, we share in the responsibility of keeping Mystic a great place to visit, and to LIVE. Honor the noise ordinance. Be the guest that you would want staying in a vacation rental near your home.

If you have chosen our home for a special occasion and plan on having a gathering with family & friends. Please respect our neighbors and our house. Our maximum guest policy is 9 adults. As a matter of local health, safety & parking guidelines, any prolonged gathering of more than 9 adults is prohibited unless approved PRIOR to booking.

Loved our stay here! The house is actually larger than it seems in the photos. Plenty of room for everyone. Three full baths are quite a treat! The house was spotless and its location to downtown Mystic cannot be beat. Literally, a 5 minute walk and you're in the center of town. No worries about parking when going out to dinner on a busy night in town. Check in and communication with Gerard was perfect. He's quick to respond to all questions! Would rent again without hesitation.

Our stay in Groton/Mystic was fantastic thanks to this fantastic property! Gerard keeps a pristine home with every charm we could have hoped for. We dined inside and outside, slept comfortably upstairs and down, and enjoyed many walks to town immediately around the corner. We have already started thinking about our next trip north and without question, this home is at the top of the shortest list!

This property is perfect for enjoying Mystic. It's walking distance to everything and so charming. The hosts are so welcoming and thoughtful. There are starter amenties and it's as close to a hotel or bed and breakfast as you can get for comfort. We loved it and would definitely stay here again!

The town is great for adults and families. There's plenty of places in Mystic and the surrounding area to eat, shop, and sites to see for everyone. Then there's the house we stayed in, you couldn't ask for a nicer house and location. Everything we did in Mystic proper we walked to. We did have great weather for walking. The house was wonderful, it was clean and well maintained, it was spacious and there was plenty of furniture, inside and outside to relax. The beds were comfortable and the kitchen is well stocked if you choose to cook your meals. There's also a couple of outside patios and a porch to relax or have a meal after grilling outside. Maybe the best VRBO home we've ever stayed at. Lastly, you can tell the owner wants you to have the best experience you've ever had. He checked in with us once or twice, without being nosy or pushy, to make sure we were happy and assure us if there was anything we needed, just ask. He gets right back to you.

Six of us stayed to celebrate a bachelorette. The house was clean, large with plenty of beds and seating and outdoor spaces, and well stocked. Its the perfect location to walk to a ton of restaurants, shopping, etc and it was great to just park and walk the where we needed to be all weekend. Gerard was very responsive and helpful and accommodating.

This house suited us perfectly for our Mystic vacation. My husband and I and our two daughters and their family were there. The four bedrooms and three bathrooms were perfect. Each family had their own bath. This house is big and spacious! It had a great deck out back with a table that fit all of us. We were 6 adults and 3 littles 3 years and under!

The property is absolutely lovely. The beautiful kitchen is well appointed and thoughtfully stocked. We enjoyed the comfortable furniture and charming decor. Our only idea for additional equipment is to add a tea kettle. One small concern was that the control knob in the upstairs bathtub fell off - I think it just needs a small screw. Not a big problem because I was still able to use it carefully. Also, I was heating a washcloth in the microwave to apply to my leg cramp and I left it in too long. I scorched the cloth and had to throw it out. My apologies! We are looking forward to out getaway next year and will look for a property in your group! Thank you!

The property, accommodations and location could not be more perfect. Gerard is a super friendly and communicative host. The check-in and check-out process was the easiest I've experienced so far. The home is very spacious and charming - and immaculately clean (including all dishware and utensils, which I always pay particular attention to). The rooms are all extremely comfortable and sunny with TVs in every room. And the location cannot be beat. It was a joy to step out and walk directly into Mystic downtown. If you want a quaint, comfortable and picturesque stay choose this home in Mystic for your next trip. We cannot wait to come back and stay here again.
