Captain Grant's 1754 - Preston, Connecticut

Kaitlin B.

This was my husband's and my first time staying at a Bed and Breakfast...and we are so glad it was Captain Grant's! We decided to go to Foxwoods for my husband's birthday weekend. Usually, we stay at the casino, but the rates this weekend were astronomical! We looked at some local chain hotels and their prices were also through the roof. Then, we remembered that Captain Grant's 1754 was nearby, and we have been wanting to stay here since we had seen "28 Days Haunted" on Netflix. We didn't experience anything particularly supernatural, but this inn was so beautiful and cozy. Also, very reasonably priced. We stayed in the Colette room, and it was perfect for us. The property is beautiful and the cemetery in the back was very cool. Definitely felt some unusual vibes in there. The staff is very friendly and welcoming. Sadly, we couldn't stay for breakfast because I was having some issues with my blood sugar, but we saw the setup and wish that we could have! Everything smelled amazing! There will be a next time for us, that's for sure.

We rented the Inn to have a friends getaway. We loved the location history and the Inn’s paranormal history. The location is kept immaculate and the owner, Carol, was hospitable and so friendly. We wanted for nothing and we were left with the run of the house when she left us. The spirits did not disappoint and I highly recommend this place for any kind of getaway you’re looking for. The breakfast was delicious and the host was amazing.

We stayed in the Adelaide room and the stay was amazing. Carol, Ted, Nellie and John were beyond kind and helpful. The room is beautiful. The breakfast was really good. The game room with the pool table is a nice addition. Could not recommend high enough. Will definitely visit again!

This is a historic inn owned by a lovely couple. The staff I met, Nellie and John, were two of the nicest people. Upon check-in, Nellie told us to make ourselves at home, and added, “Literally make yourself at home.” We did! This was such a fun little getaway for my sister and me. It was a rainy, foggy day/night, and we had just spent several hours running around checking out nearby used bookstores. We got comfortable and had dinner by ordering DoorDash. We played pool on the beautiful antique pool table, made late-night tea, and lounged in our room reading by the fireplace. Other guests were delightful to chat with, and breakfast was so, so good! Carol and Ted, the owners, joined us, and it was super nice to get to know them a little. Our room, as well as the whole house, was extremely clean—not remotely dusty—which is impressive for such an old house. Both my sister and I truly enjoyed our stay so much and look forward to going back in the summer when we can explore the area more and hang out around the fire pit. Be clear about the fact that you are not booking some high-end luxury hotel—it’s a charming B&B in a home rich with history, run by really great people! And PS: We stayed in the Adelaide room and found the rumors to be true—things do get a little spooky. 😉

My boyfriend and I stayed for our anniversary, and it was such a great idea. The inn is so cozy (especially in the winter, it snowed which added to the ambiance) and the breakfasts were great and filling. Also Carol, Ted, Nellie, and John were all so sweet -- I would recommend this inn to anyone passing through the area!

Beautiful historic building with wonderful hosts and a comfy bed! They were kind and flexible as I was arriving fairly late (after 10pm.)

Breakfast was tasty, with fresh fruit, delicious biscuits and sausage gravy and nicely fried eggs. Additionally, they were very accommodating to another guest who was vegetarian and brought her jams and offered her other options too.

Would definitely stay again!

We arrived later than expected and the two onsite caretakers/staff were fabulous and oh so friendly. They welcomed us warmly and showed us to our room, then recommended a local Italian for our dinner. We stayed in the Adelaide Room which was cozy and comfortable. We had a great nights sleep. The breakfast the next morning was fabulous. We really enjoyed our stay at the Inn and wish we had more time there. We highly recommend staying at this property with the amazing staff and accommodation. 10/10. Overall fantastic.

Close to downtown Mystic and, while I am sad to report we did not have any supernatural experiences, we did have a delightful time.

It was all rather spur of the moment and I was very happy to stumble across this place almost by accident. My search criteria was 'haunted places to stay in mystic ct' and this charming place came right up.

Very thankful to have stayed in such a historic gem and hope to return to stay again in the summer. Thank you!
