The Dollhouse was very well kept and comfortable. There were dozens of books for my grandchildren and room to spread out for 6 adults and 3 small children. Very close to restaurants, grocery stores and other attractions. Wonderful hosts as well. I would return to this property.

The Dollhouse was the perfect spot for our family for graduation weekend. We loved the character of the house, the beautiful antique furnishings (though nothing felt too precious to be used and enjoyed), and the spacious indoor and outdoor places for us all to be able to gather. The house is an easy walk to Mystic shops, restaurants and attractions plus close to essentials like grocery store, cvs, train, etc. Kerri is a fantastic host who made everything about our stay easy, pleasant and stress free. We would stay here again and absolutely will recommend to friends and family.

Lovely comfortable home, with antique charm but beautifully updated with thoughtful touches. It is great for families and pets, stocked with games, baby equipment, books, and small but comfortable outdoor space. The beds were comfortable and cozy and everything felt clean and nice. The location is fabulous and easily walkable to downtown and very close to all attractions. I highly recommend and hope to visit again.

The perfect stay

We absolutely loved the Dollhouse. My husband and I ‘eloped’ in Mystic with an intimate group and this was the perfect place to stay. The house was the perfect size for us and the location is right in walking distance of downtown. Kerri was an amazing host as well (the best I’ve experienced so far!).

A Great Family Time in Lovely Mystic

We really enjoyed staying in this charming home. It had plenty of rooms for gathering, a kitchen that worked for family cooking, a dining table that seated 8, and comfortable bedrooms. We enjoyed the decor as well as its functionality. We could walk to many shops and to the Mystic drawbridge, which the two grandsons particularly enjoyed, along with the nearby ice cream shop. I highly recommend staying here.
