About this house rental
*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. The first floor has a renovated kitchen with maple countertops and gas range, bar seating, and ample entertaining space. The living and dining area are open to the kitchen with a gas fireplace, coffered ceilings, wood blinds, and wide pine floors running throughout. To the rear is a study with beautiful built-ins that seamlessly transitions to a third bedroom with a custom-made, Queen-size Murphy bed, and full bathroom. On the 2nd floor, there is a primary bedroom with a king bed, a full bathroom, and a "relaxation room" for quiet reflections, reading, or streaming your favorite Netflix series! To the rear is an airy and bright bedroom with a queen bed and a full bathroom. 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.

The property is amazing. The photos really do not do it justice. It's way bigger than I imagined. 6 adults and a child had so much space to hang out and coexist. The location could not be better. Everything is walkable. It's next to one of the best cocktail bars in America too (Port of Call).

We had an amazing time during our stay and would definitely stay here again. The location is perfectly positioned in the heart of Mystic and is exactly as described on VRBO. Extremely clean and offers everything you would need for a comfortable stay. Very spacious house, beds were so comfortable and the central air is perfect. We hope to stay here again next year.

Better than the pictures even show. Absolutely gorgeous, perfect location...THE.PERFECT.STAY. My husband and I took our 11 year old twins, our 13 year old son and our dog for a 4 night vacation. Walking distance to restaurants and shops, 4 minute drive to aquarium and seaport. Would stay here again for sure! It was exactly what we needed. Owner was prompt in communication. We had so much fun at the house and in the town.

We had a great time staying here. The property was in the best location and the house was very clean and had everything we needed. Cant wait to stay here again!
5.0
Our recent stay at the Dutch Bell was a delightful experience. The cleanliness was top-notch, and the home was beautifully decorated- providing the linens and towels was a bonus. Being just a short distance from downtown was a game-changer. It allowed easy access to vibrant restaurants (our family loved Sift Bakery, Young Buns Doughnuts, and Mystic Drawbridge ice cream), shops, and attractions, making exploration effortless. The well-equipped kitchen and cozy living area (the fireplace was great when the evening turned chilly) added to the comfort, and the private parking space was a pleasant bonus. Overall, if you're looking for a clean, centrally located, and charming retreat, this property is an excellent choice. Highly recommended for a memorable getaway!

This property was an excellent choice for three couples for a weekend stay. Each of us had a lovely bedroo/bathroom with at least a queen bed. The bedrooms were separated, which gave us a great sense of privacy. We enjoyed dinner at the dining table that comfortably seated six adults. The home was beautiful, immaculate and the property manager was gracious and responsive. The property is right in downtown Mystic, which made it very convenient to walk to the shops and restaurants. There was an outside seating area with a propane fire pit, which would have been nice on a warmer evening than we had. We did enjoy the gas fireplace in the living room. One note, due to its location close to a bar and busy area, we did hear some street noise from the bedrooms. It didn’t bother me, but you might want ear plugs or head phones if you are sensitive to noise.

This is a wonderful place to stay. It is very clean. Beds are so comfortable. We were able to walk to about everything we wanted to do. The owner was very helpful.
5.0
The house itself is beautiful! Bedrooms are huge, had everything we needed for our 3 night stay. The location you can not beat however there are other rentals around the property. Each night we would get harassed by locals as they much have known it is a VRBO. Nothing the owners or anyone could do about it, mentioned only if you are traveling with kids. We would stay here again.

We stay at a lot of rentals, all over the world..and I can say this is a top five stay for us. The communication was great. The house was spotless. Everything in the house is high end…from the sheets and towels to the flatware and dishes. The pantry was more than accommodating. Big flat screens in every room. The location is awesome. Add to that, your own private parking for two vehicles which is awesome when it’s super busy in Mystic. Highly recommend. We will stay here again.

We spent our 3 days in Mystic visiting the aquarium and the seaport museum. The house was very clean and comfortable. We enjoyed being able to walk to different restaurants for breakfast and dinner.

I can't say enough great things about this house, I fell in love with it and didn't want to leave! Spent a few nights here with my husband, mother-in-law and 7 year old. It's the perfect spot for a family getaway weekend, and has every single amenity you could possibly want or need. We loved curling up in front of the gas fireplace every night and were just steps away from a fantastic restaurant, cocktail bar, bookshop and Sift Bakery. We barely moved our car and were able to walk to dinner every night. Property manager was very easy to get ahold of as well. Very highly recommended!

This was property was perfect for our weekend get away! The home itself is a gem- historical charm, with all the right updates, topped off with tasteful decor. Truly made for a serene environment. We really enjoyed being able to explore Mystic on foot as everything was walkable. A luxury stay with a location that can’t be beat!

Ideally located, this well-appointed three en suite property was the perfect home base for our group of six as we toured Mystic and the surrounded sights for a long Fall weekend. Steps from fabulous restaurants, Sift bakery, live entertainment, and the water's edge, it's a charming Connecticut destination.

We were two couples visiting from Oklahoma. Beautiful little seaport town that was such fun to explore. This house had everything we needed. It is perfect location for walking on into town. As stated in earlier reviews, there is street noise, but we enjoyed sitting out at the fire pit saying hi to all the walkers. Also, a lively bar next door. Just play sounds on your rooms echo, and all is well. We would definitely recommend this rental.

This home truly feels like your own second home. Wonderfully equipped with every possible thoughtful ammenity. Bedrooms were large with beautiful en-suite bathrooms and comfy beds. Kitchen is beautiful and has everything you could want. Just a top notch home in the middle of Mystic. There is some street noise but that’s to be expected based on the location

Perfect!
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Location is perfect. A quick walk to downtown to enjoy fabulous restaurants and shops. The condo was spacious with high ceilings, very clean, and has all amenities you could need. Host checked in on our arrival to assure we didn’t need anything and was reachable via text during our stay. I would definitely stay there again and would recommend it to others.

Super In-Town Location
We wanted to stay at a place located right in the center of all the action. The location of this property gave us the opportunity to walk to everything. No car needed. The property was very clean and the kitchen was stocked with everything you could imagine. The only thing people should be aware of is that the property has three bedrooms and three full attached baths. There is no half bath off of the kitchen or living room. If you have visitors, they have to walk through a bedroom to use a bathroom. That didn’t bother us at all. Also, because this property is right in town, you’ll hear people and such past midnight. If you are an early or light sleeper, you may want to choose a property further away from the action. I give this property five stars. It’s the best VRBO property that we have stayed in.
5.0
Really great condition, fully furnished with anything needed, fantastic walking location in Mystic, comfortable beds, AC, towels, linens, etc. The best little gas fire pit outside and two patios, beautifully furnished. Great communication with owners/managers, easy check in and out, great experience. Best short term rental I’ve ever stayed in!
