Cozy with eclectic decor

This was enough to meet our needs for the amount of time we spent there. Was disappointed in quality of available cookware and lack of attention to cleaning in certain areas.

Lovely stay in Mystic

We had a wonderful stay at Gwen’s place. It is situated in a beautiful, quiet neighbourhood and is within walking distance of downtown Mystic. It had everything we needed and more. Highly recommended! Gwen is so friendly and gave us local recommendations too.

Anniversary night in mystic

Overall this property was very cute and cozy! It was accurately described in the listing. Minor issue with the garage door entrance but it was addressed quickly and didn’t affect our stay. Tenant upstairs was helpful and polite and we still had our privacy. I would stay here again :)

Gwen is a great host

Gwen went above and beyond for a last minute booking. Property was great for my wife and 7 year old daughter. Great communication. Highly recommend for a trip to mystic. Fire pit in the back yard was a great bonus for s’mores with my daughter.

Great spot for a quick stay on our journey

We stayed here for two nights on our road trip from Florida to Maine. It was a very nice and convenient location. We were able to spend our day at the aquarium and around Mystic, which is all very close to the apartment. Gwen was great and was there to let us in when we arrived (she was staying upstairs). She would check in to make sure we had everything we needed (which we did, the place was well stocked). Thanks for making our last stop a great one!

About the host

Hosted by Gwen Campbell

Host profile image
This house was my childhood home. We are a military family who moved to CT from Hawaii in 1990. Upon my dad's retirement, we bought this house and have been there ever since. I spent my young adult life in the New England area, however moved to settle in Key West Florida in 2009. My parents both lived in this house until their passing (2013 and 2022), and I do not want to sell this beautiful property as I fully enjoy my Connecticut summers away from the hot Key West ones! Depending on time of year, I may be in town during your stay and I would love to give you any tips on your time in my hometown!

Why they chose this property

You will find Mystic is a peaceful and beautiful place. The neighborhood is very safe and walkable. It is only a mile to downtown if you don't want to drive!

What makes this property unique

I have tried to bring a little of my southern home to my northern one. I believe bright colors make people happy and I hope you enjoy it as well! The art throughout the house is from my family-- many from growing up in Hawaii and of my mom's art collection or her paintings she did herself as an artist in the 1980's. I also try to add little new pieces to the house as I travel around the world and visit new spaces. I hope you enjoy the art as much as I do! There is a guest book as well as a PUSH PIN map to tell me where you're from!

Amenities that are unique to the house:
Coffee bar with multiple options (drop, keurig, french press, creamer, sugars, etc)
Vintage records (from my mother) and a player to play them on! (Board games and other rainy day activities in this 'game' area).
Old fashioned popcorn machine!
