Not a ton to do in Mystic, so we spent an hour walking through the shops in the Village. Nothing all THAT special, but we weren't disappointed. more

I remember when they first built OMV back around 1975. Its been expanded over the years. One of the highlights is that it has several areas where there are ducks,and you can feed them-for 94 cents a bag. On this trip, I made my usual stop at franklin's general store for fudge,some sauces and marinades,a yankee candle and a small... more

I enjoyed my time at this charming shopping village and it was a pleasant way to spend a few hours. The buildings are quaint and there are lovely gardens, ponds and ducks. I noticed that some of the shops need a little bit of sprucing up (on the exterior), but overall, the village was very pretty. There are some very... more

We had a nice time walking around and going in all of thei little shops. The duck pond that wraps around the entire village was really cute and a nice surprise. Old Mystic village is a great place to spend the afternoon walking aroiund, especially if you plan on going to the Aquarium which is within walking distance of Old... more

It is a cute place to go and wander around for a few hours. There were several shops I really enjoyed and did purchase a few items. It wasn't what I was expecting. I heard about it and everyone talked highly of it so I think in my mind I created high expectations and in the end I was a... more

A cute little village of shops. It's a nice way to spend a couple of hours wandering around. Most shops are cute with nice people; a few were a bit pretentious. Worth a visit on a nice day. more

After an enjoyable morning at the aquarium across the street, my family and I headed over to the village. There were plenty of shops to explore. The Toy Soldier toy shop was one of our favorites, as well as several of the country stores. I also have to agree with an earlier posting: Avoid the "Country Kitchen" restaurant- the portions... more

Great time

Every year we go here and always have fun. Not a shopper but traveling with others that are? There are plenty of places to sit, enjoy the flowers, watch the ducks and geese play in the ponds,and listen to the chimes of the little church. This year I had two 14 years old girls with me - they loved the... more

Although Old Mystic Village is quaint and a nice place to shop for trinkets and mementos of your stay, I think it would also be great to have antique shops located within the village along with more country shops. We did enjoy shopping in the cooking store but other than that, we were not very impressed with what was there,... more
