Perfect!
Not only is the cottage cute and clean, the location is perfect! We were so close to everything in Mystic! Our two young boys were even able to scooter (while we walked) to the downtown area of shops and restaurants. We loved the quiet side street and the bit of water view from the property. We will definitely stay here again!

Just perfect!
From booking to check out, excellent experience. Fast communication with host. Very accommodating. The house was clean, neat, cozy, private and the location couldn't be better. We could walk to everything. Just by the water. Amazing in the mornings with the fog covering the water down the road. Fire pit at night. Pleasant surprise to find snacks and drinks in fridge. Can't recommend this amazing place enough. The host also recommended places to eat. Great great delicious food within walking distance. My girlfriend and I were beyond happy with the stay, just wished we didn't have to work the next day so we could stay longer.

Perfect Get Away
The hosts were very quick to respond to any questions. The location and quaintness of their listing was fantastic! I would highly recommend anyone to stay at this rental. I do not know how four people would actually fit. My daughter and I would definitely stay again and will most likely plan a trip in the next several weeks. The location is fabulous! Many thanks!

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!

Perfect Weekend Getaway
The Hemingway Retreat was exactly what we were looking for! It was cozy with all of the essential amenities, within walking distance so we didn't need to find parking, cozy, and the owners were so kind! We highly recommend this cottage and would love to return one day!

Great weekend getaway for a couple
Very clean. No need to get in our car all weekend!! Second time staying here! Great place, has everything you need for a two person visit. One thing to note, for anyone who may have a sensitivity to smells, the plug in air fresheners can be very overwhelming and asthma triggering. Also, renters would benefit from a hook or two to hang a wet towel.
