Worst vacation rental

Very disappointing property with appliances, plumbing etc in disrepair, missing basic items, misrepresented on website. “Owners” non-responsive to requests. Expensive and extremely aggravating experience.

Clean home close to attractions

Very clean and tidy, the home accommodated our group of eight nicely. The pool is heated and is really nice to come home to after visiting all the surrounding sites (i.e. downtown Mystic, Mystic Aquarium, the Submarine museum). 15 minute drive from Mystic. Great communication.

Excellent experience!

Our family came and stayed at this beautiful property for a week while our son arrived home from his deployment. It was the perfect space for our family to spread out and stay comfortably for the week. The home was very clean, especially for a beautiful old historic home. The pool was absolutely perfect, as was the rest of the outdoor space. They even came and cleaned the pool halfway through our stay while we were out exploring for the day. The home was also perfect for entertaining as we had friends and family stop in to congratulate our son's deployment. The beds and amenities were comfortable. For future guests, I advise bringing a few extra kitchen items for cooking if you plan to cook/entertain while your staying. The location was close to everything, but in a nice quiet neighborhood. We could not have asked for a better experience.

Fishing trip

A bunch of friends stayed at this location for an overnight fishing trip. The house was clean, confidently located right off the highway, and close to everything we needed. Would definitely stay here again!

Nice spot for family gathering

This house worked well for a family group getting together. Nice area to walk around and explore, too. There were a couple of issues and the owners and maintenance people responded quickly.

Fantastic spot in Groton, CT!

We had a very relaxing week at the property! The house was comfortable and beautifully decorated, and the pool area was exactly what we needed. It is a short walk (less than 10 minutes) to the riverfront with restaurants and a few shops, and 15 minutes from downtown Mystic and all of its attractions. I highly recommend this property if you are looking for a place to stay in this area!
