Superlative Stays—Mystic, Connecticut

Sitting on the Atlantic Coast, Mystic, Connecticut, hasn’t forgotten its deep seafaring roots. The town was a leading New England seafaring village dating back to the early 1700s and, lest anyone forget that, the Mystic Seaport has gathered and fastidiously restored over 60 heritage commercial buildings from those days. With more than 500 authentic watercraft on site, the seaport lays claim to being the world’s largest maritime museum.

Boat rides range from sightseeing cruises of the Mystic River on coal-fired steamboats to tall ship sailing adventures out to sea.

For 21st century entertainment, two of the world’s largest casinos—Mohegan Sun and Foxwoods—are less than 15 minutes from town.
