A great way to visit Mystic
I stayed here with my wife and 6 month old while visiting family for the Holidays. The place was very clean with nice amenities, had easy check in/access and perfect for our stay. It’s in a great location, walking distance away from downtown Mystic yet quiet and private. Overall had a wonderful stay!

My husband and I enjoyed our stay tremendously. Caitlin and Chris were very welcoming and their getaway cottage is charming and has everything you'll need. We spent a long weekend, and had plenty to do in the area around Mystic. It was very convenient to not have to move our car / walk to town.
