The home was perfect and in a wonderful location. Only a few miles from downtown mystic. You could go into town and do some exploring of the restaurants, shops and bars which is definitely well worth it or you could hang out, enjoy the awesome views and go for quiet walks. I have used a lot of VRBO's and Air B & B's in the past and this is definitely one of my favorites

We had an amazing time at this home. Mason's Island is a beautiful part of Mystic and this house cannot be beat. The view is everything!! But the house also delivers. The kitchen is amazing - we cooked a small Thanksgiving meal while there and we had more than enough available to us to make that happen. The rooms are set up to be cozy and enjoy the amazing views. The outside is nicely done with plenty to enjoy even in the colder months. Glori was delightful to work with - her list of things to know and activities to enjoy show how much she cares about her guests enjoying their stay. My whole family loved it - kids to adults - and we are all hoping to be able to return someday soon. Just a great experience all around!

This home is the rental I always dreamed of. Beautiful home - unbelievably well stocked - perfect location in a private, secluded area but within minutes of Mystic. Large yard for enjoying games - spacious sunroom that is so close to the water that you feel like you could dip your toes in the water while sitting there. Glori was wonderful and made sure everything was well tended to. We can’t wait to go back.

We had the most amazing time watching all the birds on the surrounding property as well as relaxing and watching the waves. There is shore, marsh, ponds, grass, trees and bushes so you get great variety of birds. There are panoramic views out of almost every window of the house showcasing all the different scenery. The inside of the home is even better than it looked in the pictures. You really don’t need to leave the home. But if you do it’s also awesome that the most of the restaurants and shops are less than 10 minutes away. Great experience!
