Wonderful stay - perfect location
My husband and I really enjoyed our stay at the Riverbed Cottage. The cottage was very comfortable for the two of us and we loved the nautical/vintage decor. The location was perfect - within walking distance of everything in the downtown area. We enjoyed sitting out by the river in front of the cottage in the provided adirondack chairs - lovely view! Communication with our host was excellent. We highly recommend this cottage!

Just close enough, but far enough away
The decor was perfect for the experience. Nautical mixed with fun elements. Just steps away from the action, but far enough to walk home to tranquility. Located right on the river, this apt has great views of all the boats coming and gowing. Great communication with yhe owner.

Charming property
Beautiful and well decorated property. Very clean and in a great location overlooking the river.
There is a little place to make some coffee but not a real kitchenette, as there is no sink or space to make something to eat.
Overall we enjoyed our stay there.

Perfection! The apartment was meticulous, well

Sweet getaway
The location was perfect! Walk to everything and enjoyed our stay! The hosts are
Very attentive to your needs but leave you with complete privacy. The only things ans a gentleman just mentioned is the staircase is enclosed so you have to be a little
Agile to get over it and the parking was difficult
Because if
You left your street space people are
Quick
To take it! Otherwise it
Was perfect
Thank you!

Amazing weekend
Perfect location , perfect accommodations and perfect host … I would recommend 100% and will def be back ! Clean , amazing Vrbo , one of the best we ever stayed in !!!!!
Charming apartment. Access to the entrance meant climbing over a brick barrier. As we are both in our 80th year, this was a challenge for my wife. Parking was also a challenge as the street parking is limited and gets very busy during this time of year.

Just what was needed
Although we were familiar with the area and had passed by the property 1000’s of times we couldn’t have been happier with everything. From the initial contact with our host , to the quality and layout of the space and of course the location. Being able to relax and stare at the river first thing in the morning was priceless. We are better for having found the property and stayed there.

Perfect Mystic spot!
Cute space in an historic building right on the Mystic River with a view of the bridge and only a block from the main downtown area. Quiet, clean,convenient. Barb was upstairs if we needed anything and she even offered to let us use her kayak! Wine, coffee and treats were a nice surprise waiting for us on arrival. Perfect for any vacation time in Mystic.
