We absolutely loved our stay! The owners were wonderful and very accommodating. The house is stunning and we picked up lots of ideas for our own house renovation. Would highly recommend this property. All of the comforts of home and MORE!!
Highly recommended property! Everything is exactly as it appears (even better!) on website. Very convenient to FSU for football weekend. The host provided A+ communication and was very welcoming, even providing a welcome basket with treats and wine (my treat:) along with toiletry baskets. What a great touch that I rarely find at VRBO homes which sets this one above the rest!
Such an incredible place to stay. Everything was perfect. The house itself could not be any more gorgeous. The area of town was close to everything. And the host Alex was beyond helpful and just so kind. Not to mention there were baskets of goodies in the kitchen for snacking and the bedroom with extra toiletries. This was beyond 5-stars. Alex thank you for an amazing few days in your home.
The reality was as nice as the pictures made it seem! I had a great experience interacting with Alex who was a wonderful host. World absolutely stay here again and recommend it to friends!
Property was even nicer than photos show. Very clean and nicely renovated home. Nice neighborhood and great location for a Tallahassee visit. We were vey pleased with communications from the owner and am glad we chose to stay at Home on a Hill.
Host replied promptly to inquiries. Home renovated beautifully. Stay was perfect for our family and in-laws while we were in town. Home had everything we needed. Very close proximity to FSU was perfect. Highly recommend and will return. Thank you!

About the host
Hosted by Alex Douglas
Hey there! We’re Alex and Jessie Douglas and are young professionals living in the beautiful capital of Florida - Tallahassee! We met here at Florida State, got married (and now have a beautiful baby girl - Arie!) and lived in NYC and Austin, TX for over five years before returning back to Tallahassee. Alex works at Florida State at the Dedman College of Hospitality and Jessie is an Occupational Therapist at Tallahassee Memorial Hospital (and part-time florist which means the house is always full of fresh flowers!).
