Beautifully situated on a hill among maple and apple trees, and with superb modern facilities, Mystic is an idyllic campsite in which to see the delights of New England. The campsite is set in the midst of classic New England imagery with centuryold maples, stonewalls, and reproduction colonial architecture. It’s also an easy drive from some of Connecticut’s fi nest tourist attractions, including the Mystic Seaport Museum, Dinosaur State Park and the Mystic Aquarium. You could even retrace Julia Roberts’s footsteps and take the kids to Mystic Pizza.

Due to its location some noise may be heard on parc.

Out and about

Mystic has more to offer than pizza… There are many fine steak and seafood restaurants to choose from. Mystic Aquarium and Institute for Exploration is an exciting day out for all the family, see the sea lion shows and the beluga whales. Mystic's famous Seaport is worth a visit for its Muesum of America and the Sea, and there's the Essex Steam Train and Riverboat journey. Then for something totally different, why not try your luck at one of the casinos?
