The Space:
Be our guests at the “Life Saver Room,” a private bedchamber in the Carriage House located in the peaceful hamlet of Old Mystic near the head of the Mystic River, only a 2 mi drive to Mystic Seaport Museum, shops, and restaurants. The Life Saver Room has a private bathroom and a private exterior entrance. Cozy up to a gas fireplace on cold nights, sleep soundly on a comfy queen pencil bed, dressed in lovely linens, and wake up rested to a beautiful mural! Treat yourself to something special!
We promise you will feel cared for the moment you walk through the door- from the warm welcome to a specially prepared bed- made just for you!
The Space
The Life Saver's high ceilings make the room feel spacious, and the half-circle window up top lets in lots of light—especially nice when days are short.
The front windows of this bedchamber overlook the gardens and gazebo. The field and stone walls out back are also lovely views.
During your stay, you will have a mini fridge for your perishables, a Kuerig, and coffee/tea supplies for your morning cup.
Enjoy the bustle of downtown, but come back to the peaceful, quiet Old Mystic- a charming New England Hideaway- a true “Life Saver!” So what are you waiting for? :-D

We are Debbie (and Paul, too:)
My husband and I live in Mystic, a 5-minute drive from Old Mystic. Even though you are set up for self-check-in, you may see one of us around watering plants, taking out trash bins, etc. But rest assured, we are harmless and will respect your space and privacy. If you seek answers, would like suggestions, or even meet us, we are here for you and delight in sharing this lovely little village with visitors! We are always available by phone or text, so please reach out if you need anything!
We are sure you would love to stay in the Life Saver Guest Room at the Carriage House, and we'd love to host you!
Warmly,
Debbie (& Paul, too)
