Charming & comfortable weekend away
Lynsey’s spot is on a quiet block but close to all Mystic has to offer. We loved being able to walk into downtown Mystic for food and shopping. It was also an easy walk to the Seaport Museum. The house was comfortable, clean and well appointed. The instructions to access the house were clear, and it was nice that there was parking available. The linens/bedding was nice - not a huge thing for me usually but something I noticed and appreciated. The host left some complimentary cider for us to try which was a nice touch :) Would stay here again and recommend to others looking to spend time in the area.

We moved from Connecticut a few years ago but were returning to Mystic for a wedding. We wanted to be among the wedding guests in downtown Mystic but did not want to drive and park each day. This charming home was just perfect for two of us. It is old and historic, but has all the modern conveniences needed for a home away from home. It is literally steps from restaurants, the drawbridge and the beauty of the Mystic River. We would stay again.

Anniversary getaway
The apartment was very nice, clean and very well stocked. The owner is very quick to respond to our questions. Lynsey even left for us the complimentary wine and cider from local Tapped Apple winery. Both were very delicious!!! Overall, we had a great stay at this historic 1839 house.

Perfect family vacation
This was our first vacation as a family of 3 and this was the perfect experience. My child is 18 months old and I love that the house was cozy, accommodating for a young child, and clean. You could not beat the location either as a lot of attractions, shopping, and restaurants were within walking distance and other attractions such as the aquarium were a quick drive. We had a comfortable and fun stay. The host was very communicative and welcoming. I would definitely recommend.
