About this property

Mystic - Island retreat

Spend Thanksgiving by the sea in this lovely island home located on Mason's Island between the New England villages of Mystic and Stonington Borough. Walk to Kitchen Little for the best breakfast you'll ever eat and stroll out to Ender's Island and imagine you have arrived on the shores of Italy. On Saturday, Santa arrives by tugboat and lighted boat parade, and you won't want to miss that! Do your Christmas shopping easily in Olde Mystic Village and the charming shops in Stonington Borough. If thrifting is what you like, you can shop at The Como in the Borough, or Blue Mitten and Johnycake's in Westerly, RI, 9 miles away. Head to Watch Hill for a peaceful walk on East Beach, finished off with a cocktail on the porch at Ocean House. On the way home, stop at Dogwatch for dinner on the dock or Seawell to pick up lobster rolls to bring home for dinner on the backyard patio. At dusk, keep your eyes open for deer and coyote beyond my fence.
Home is a charming 3-bedroom cape, filled with ocean breezes on quiet lane. Open floor plan and sunlit living room with French doors leading to a screened porch and beautiful gardens beyond. The back yard is fenced. A sitting room is filled with books to read at your leisure. Second floor master bedroom has a view of Long Island Sound.
Three marinas within walking distance, a 10 minute walk to Kitchen Little for breakfast, fish market and newly-built YMCA with pool, classes, gym, playground and sandy beach. Bring or rent kayaks to launch from the shore nearby to explore Mystic and Stonington from the water. One mile walk to serene Ender's Island, a retreat known for its ocean front and gardens. Perfect spot for fishing, picnics and collecting sea glass. Walk two miles to Mystic shops, restaurants and the famous drawbridge. Minutes to Amtrak station and I-95. Enjoy this charming home and all that it has to offer!

Mystic Island Retreat Review

When I walked into Mystic Retreat I felt at home. Tucked into a quiet neighborhood on Masons Island. It was as if I were staying at my sisters, but she wasn’t home. The vibe is peaceful. The back patio is a great spot to relax & chat. The owners artistic personality graces the house. There’s every amenity you would have at home. Nice trip!

Cozy stay

Kevin's home is spacious and cozy. Surrounded by books with the perfect sunroom to curl up and read. We stayed for six days and it was perfect for our family of four, including two kids. Communicating with Kevin was a true pleasure and we would stay there again anytime.

Relaxing Home Away from Home

Thank you Kevin, Great communication before during and after our stay. Relaxing trip even with the heat wave! Wish our daughters & family could have come, plenty of room. First floor Open so air circulated and stayed cool while we were out on adventure's. Home was clean all furniture comfortable. Beautiful breeze in the yard & through the screened in porch. Walk a block away to see the sunset. Breath taking! Close to everything 5 min Mystic village shops, 25 min Misquamicut Beach RI & and so much in between.

Wonderful Week in Mystic

The location on Mason Island is fantastic. We very much enjoyed being in the resort town of Mystic. There's so much to do in the area - swimming, shopping, hiking, boating, museums, restaurants, and more. The house was great - in a quiet neighborhood, with a lovely yard - very relaxing - plenty of room. Our family had a glorious vacation together.

3-Day Stay

We found this home to be cozy and well located for touring around Mystic and Stonington. Comfortably accommodated our party of five. The owner was extremely communicative and helpful directing us to sites and restaurants. Owner also encouraged us to use the fireplace, which was perfect for the cold November evenings.
