Great stay in a beautifully decorated home
This was a fantastic rental for our girls weekend. The house is beautifully restored and nicely decorated, with everything you need. We loved our visit.

Lovely Victorian well decorated
The house is exactly as pictured on the website, large rooms we’ll appointed.
We had a few issues however. The beds in all the rooms are very uncomfortable. The sofa bed was the most comfortable which is very telling. The bath tubs are very slippery! They need mats and grab bars.
Communication with the owner/manager was very slow in responding. We were only given one key for 8 people and a second key had to be made and we had to come pick it up at the cafe.
I’ll end on a high note because overall we enjoyed our stay. Thank you

Wedding week
We were in town for or daughters wedding with some out of town family, the house was great for all of us and all the boxes and supplies we had for the wedding. Beautiful kitchen and bedrooms were roomy and the beds pretty comfortable. I would definitely stay here again and recommend it high, thank you for a great week and the opportunity to be with family.

Beautiful modern historic home !
Michael was an amazing host! The property was amazing the pictures didn’t do it justice you have to see it in person. A group of my childhood friends and I got together to celebrate our friends birthday. We are all young professionals and we haven’t seen each other in years. This home was perfect for the 8 of us. We watched movies and had a feast one night. The kitchen is picture perfect and also one of our favorite rooms in the house. The interior designs are simple, modern and classy. I loved this property and I will book here first before any where else in the area!!! Thank you for allowing us to have a home away from home !
