Location is great, immediately across from Mystic Seaport Shipyard, and since we were going to the museum, this was convenient. Also easy walking distance to downtown Mystic. Layout is relatively open with good circulation. Winder stair could intimidate some people, but owner has helpfully added an extra grab bar. We made use of many of the amenities including the sufficiently-equipped kitchen and the gas grill.

Great location to shops, the stairs to the 2nd and 3rd floor were narrow and steep but lots of grab bars for your safety.

This was the cleanest rental property we’ve had the privilege to stay. The location to downtown Mystic and the Seaport Museum was perfect! Every night my husband and I would go outside right before 8PM to hear the church bells from across the lake.The stairs are no joke but there are baby safety gates which was perfect for our 3 under 3!Gerard, the host, was amazing and so accommodating. Thank you for a great family vacation!
