Revisiting hometown memories

My daughter and I stayed for a week while we were handling some family business. Our mornings were glorious as we walked through the community to Central Park and up Main Street. The location is convenient to the parks and restaurants; the backyard is comfortable for relaxing morning and evening; the kitchen stocked well; the bedrooms comfortable and stylishly decorated. I would definitely choose this property again for a MIlford visit.

Charming, Clean, Excellent Location

I cannot say enough wonderful things about our stay! We selected this rental to attend a local wedding and made it a long weekend. This house is adorable, super clean, and the host has thought of everything a group would need to have a comfortable and entertaining stay. The coffee/tea bar, locally brewed root beer on tap, cozy family room with soft blankets, comfortable bedding, and wonderfully stocked kitchen! We walked into Milford to shop and eat and enjoyed a day at Kensington Park a short drive away. Brandy was amazing and so accommodating for everything we needed!

Perfect Girls Night

This was the perfect spot for our girls night. We enjoyed every part of the house and yard. The fire pit was the perfect touch to the cool night. One down side was that we only stayed one night. Thank you, Brandy, for a wonderful and beautiful place to stay!

Overall the house was in great shape. There were many nice touches, like snacks and coffee, everything in the bathroom was organized and labeled. The location is perfect. The only drawback is having just one bathroom.

The Perfect Place for Families

The Hickory House was the perfect place to stay while in town for a family reunion. The house is on a quiet street in the beautiful community of Milford. A short walk to the downtown area for dinner was very convenient and the long walks to see the historic homes were fulfilling. The Hickory House had ample room for my crew, and everything in the home was well appointed and amazingly comfortable. We will absolutely be back to Hickory House to make more memories! Brandi is a wonderful host, thoughtful, responsive, and the property was exceptional!

This house was set up for anyone coming in from a long drive and needed time to get settled in. Perfect location to drive anywhere or stay in Milford. Owners go above and beyond to make you feel at home and the details like cookies made it perfect.

Lovely home near downtown Milford

This is a beautiful home within walking distance to downtown Milford. It’s very clean and beautifully decorated. The backyard is surrounded by mature trees and it’s very serene to sit on the deck. Linens were of excellent quality as are the mattresses. The neighborhood feels extremely safe and quiet. The host left us a delicious batch of homemade cookies and a welcoming note. Everything was in good working order and the home was stocked with any toiletries you may need. We hope it’s available for our next trip to Milford!
