The property was great. Clean, cozy, comfortable and beautiful. Great beds. The only reason that I did not give it a full 5 stars is that there was a water pump that made noise and that was challenging at night. The owner was aware is in the process of getting it fixed.

House was immaculate and very comfortable. Everything was great!

Was very close to town, aquarium and restaurants which was wonderful! The only thing the home is on a main road which we was noisy and we weren’t aware of.

Fun Weekend in Mystic!

What an amazing stay in Mystic! My friends and I celebrated my sister in law getting married in the beautiful magnolia house. The house was so specious and perfectly fit eight people. Foxwoods was only a 20 minute drive and downtown Mystic was only an easy 10 minute walk. Host was super accommodating and even stopped over to give us a bottle of wine. Perfect stay and would highly recommend the house!

Beautiful. Spacious. Immaculate. Well appointed. One of the best rentals we’ve stayed at. Wish we had more down time to enjoy the house more, but we had an event filled weekend trip. Maybe next time. Would definitely rent again.

Graduation Celebration

Magnolia House is a lovely modern home in a great location for easy access to Mystic and the surrounding communities. We enjoyed the large, well appointed kitchen and spacious gathering areas for our family group. The bedrooms are roomy with very comfortable beds. Ample towels, linens and cleaning supplies were on hand. Our host Ellen was very available and thoughtful. She even offered to pick up groceries for us for our late arrival. Very nice!

Great week in Mystic

This is a great home very close to downtown Mystic. An easy walk to the drawbridge and shops and restaurants. This house has recently been completely refurbished and upgraded throughout. The kitchen is very well equipped and the rooms, beds, flooring - everything is new, functional and spotless. One of the nicest properties we have stayed in over 20 years renting from VRBO. The host and property manager are super attentive and made sure everything was perfect for our stay. We really appreciate everything about this rental and highly recommend it for anyone considering a stay in Mystic. If we come back, we will definitely want to stay here again.

Perfect home and perfect getaway!

The Magnolia Property is completely stunning and extremely comfortable. It felt like home to my family of four (2 adults, 7 y.o. & 11 y.o.. The home was fully stocked with anything you may need, from detergent, paper towels, kcups, extra towels, extra sheets, etc. The communication with the owner Ellen and house manager, Maura was superb and much appreciated. We had no issues at all and a truly perfect stay at the home. We shopped in downtown Mystic which is less than 2 miles away from the property, visited East Beach which is the best northeastern beach I have been to, and spent the day at Mystic Aquarium. Also went to the submarine museum and watched an active submarine coming in to the base. So happy we decided to visit Mystic and plan on coming back soon. 🤗

We absolutely loved our stay at this beautiful home in Mystic, Connecticut! The house was spotless, well-furnished, and had a warm, welcoming feel from the moment we walked in. The kitchen was fully equipped and made cooking at home a breeze. The location couldn’t have been better—just minutes from downtown Mystic, making it super convenient to explore shops, restaurants, and the waterfront.Ellen, our host, was truly wonderful—friendly, responsive, and made sure we had everything we needed for a perfect stay. We’re already looking forward to coming back again. Highly recommend!

Everything was as described and represented in the photos.
