The bedroom area, full kitchen, and cozy seating area all boast exceptional and onubstructed waterviews. The studio also has one full bathroom with gorgeous stone shower with heated seat and floor.

We feel so fortunate to have found this hidden gem! It’s located in a quiet neighborhood, but within walking distance to downtown Mystic. The space is bright, clean and suited us perfectly. Max, Ginger and the ducks made it even more perfect!

This is our second stay at the studio. We were guests over 8 years ago and finally had the chance to bring the kids back! Kris & Beth are great. The studio is beautiful, well maintained, clean, stocked with basic needs. The kids loved the ducks, Max & Ginger & learning about the oyster farm right outside your door! We went to Sift for macaroons & croissants, Mystic Pizza, Kitchen Little for the best benedicts EVER, the aquarium, Abbotts, Sea Swirl, and Mystic Village has so many cute shops. We can’t wait to be back again soon!

Beautiful home and wonderful hosts

We had a great stay at Kris and Beth’s place. They were wonderful hosts and have a beautiful property. We had a relaxing weekend, their oysters are amazing, and nights sitting by the pit fire and looking out over the water was peaceful. Highly recommend a long weekend here.

Hello!
We have lived in the Stonington arera for our entire lives, and are so excited to share this beautiful place with you. We know that you will love it as much as we do.

Why they chose this property

Start the day by watching the sunrise over the water from bed, and end the day by watching the sun set over the marina while roasting marshmallows around the fire pit. If you like to explore, it is a short stroll into town for shopping and dining, or venture further to the Aquarium, Seaport, or Casinos. Feeling outdoorsy? Relax on your private beach, or kayak and fish from the back yard. The Studio is the perfect mix of adventure and relaxation. Do as much or as little as you like!

What makes this property unique

Mystic is the perfect year round getaway. In the summer you will enjoy the beautiful weather and salty breezes and in the winter enjoy the quintessential holiday activities of a small New England town. We are currently offering customizable excursions on our 30' Cabin cruiser. We will happily shuttle you and your family to Sandy Point, a pristine island preserve/beach or take you out on a fishing adventure. We also offer sunrise and sunset lighthouse cruises with snacks and drinks. Ever been to Block Island? We'll take you there...fishing, exploring, shopping or all three!
Also unique to our property is our oyster hatchery. Feel free to pop down to the dock and say "hello" to the babies, or have a chat while we work.
