Absolutely 10 out of 10! The views were spectacular, the studio was immaculate, and Kris and Beth were so friendly and helpful. Added bonus was meeting their 2 dogs, Max and Ginger and being entertained by their ducks! This was the perfect place to stay and hope to be back!

We absolutely loved our stay here! Kris and Beth were great with communication from the start and made us feel very welcome. We got to meet a lot of the family and I’m usually a shy person but they were all wonderful people that you can instantly click with and have a great conversation. They provided everything we needed and more. The ducks became our favorite part of the morning, but the water view and fall foliage was breathtaking! Even at night the water is calm and the stars are very visible! The shower which I believe Kris designed and built himself was a work of art and was so relaxing after a day of being out in Mystic! Overall this is a great place to stay with great people and we wished we would've spent more time on the property and are sad to go so soon!

Beautiful Location and Wonderful Hosts

My family has stayed at this property many times. Kris and Beth are wonderful hosts-very responsive to anything we might need, and the studio is always cleaned meticulously.The location is picture-perfect. It is on the water with an abudance of windows that allow you to see the sunrise, boaters and birds. We had access to a fire pit and chairs overlooking the water. Just being there is so relaxing, it is always the highlight of our stay in Mystic. When we do want to venture out there are many shops and restaurants withing walking distance. We wouldn't stay anywhere else!

A Mystic(al) Experience

Can't say enough about great things about Kris & Beth's studio. From the stunning view to the gorgeous dogs and hilarious ducks, this location is so charming you'll think you're in an alternate universe of relaxation. Conveniently located less than a 10 minute stroll to restaurants, shops, bars, and boating, you're going to regret not discovering this location sooner.

Mom's Bucket List East Coast RT`

After having planned this roadtrip over the past 5 years with my life partner, he passed away April 2024. My daughter had to work in Pennsylvania in July/August and suggested we meet in Washington DC and do the roadtrip together. She did all the driving and we took our time, relaxing, eating fresh seafood, and visiting lighthouses. Bucket list roadtrip satisfied for mom.

Soothing, calming, local paradise

We had the best time and some much needed R&R. There is no better place to just disconnect and take in the surroundings with the amazing views, incredible sunsets and sunrises, and the best ducks ever (bring watermelon!). Kris and Beth were amazing hosts and we will return soon!!

This is such a unique place to stay. The view from the apartment is stunning and will take your breath away. The layout of the studio is perfect. The owners, Kris and Beth, are so warm and welcoming. The oyster farm is fascinating and is complemented well with the family of ducks that will charm and humor all guests! What a one of a kind, special place!

The 180 degree water view is stunning but the tranquility that view in-vibes is priceless. Absolutely loved this experience waterfront view, homey, comfortable and the location and proximity to downtown made this one of the best VRBO stays. Beth and Kris are wonderful host.
