Life can certainly be looked upon as a dynamic journey. One that involves near constant change. And, while steadfastly retaining its maritime heritage and time-honored traditions, our quaint village has enthusiastically embraced the notion of sensible evolution. Since it was originally settled almost four centuries ago, Mystic has continued to flow as prosperously as the incoming tides.
Last year we established a rather extensive section within our website that invited you to explore Our Neighborhood. Truth be told, on occasion it can be quite a challenge to keep up with all the comings and goings, especially with those of our many top-tier dining venues and drinking establishments. That’s just the nature though of being a leading U.S. travel destination for foodies now. We’re genuinely fortunate to have this pleasant little dilemma to manage.
However, it’s not only the nearby places to Eat & Drink that are featured. We also maintain categories highlighting Shopping, Attractions, Arts & Culture, and Activities & Adventure. Importantly, most are within easy walking distance of Maxson House. We even indicate how many minutes it’ll normally take to either walk or drive to each location.
Today, on this Valentine’s Day 2026, the section that we’ve officially designated as EXPLORE MYSTIC x MAXSON HOUSE has been thoroughly brought up to date. Nevertheless, tomorrow is yet another day ripe for change.
