Perfect house for our family! My family lives in town but hotels aren’t the greatest option around there. Close to the cutest downtown area but still quiet and cozy location. Will definitely be booking again for our few trips per year to see family.

We had a lovely stay! The home was very well equipped with everything we needed, making it comfortable and easy to settle in. We especially appreciated the thoughtful dog-friendly amenities — it made traveling with our pups so much easier. Overall, we had a wonderful time and would absolutely stay again!

We came is from Houston stayed 3 nights for a wedding and to visit family. I grew up just a few blocks an away so the location was very nostalgic. The house was exactly the right fit for our trip and easily accommodated our group. We had everything we needed for the stay the host’s extra touches were appreciated. We enjoyed breakafast at Paul’s cafe and dinner at Roux and Brew. We shopped at all the stores along Main st and spent several house just relaxing on the front porch. We will be booking again for our next visit.

Our weekend stay was amazing, I can't say enough good things about it!! The hospitality was outstanding from the moment we arrived. This house is perfect for family gatherings! The only way it would be better was if it was in the woods so we could go camping there

This house was very charming. The host was very helpful and responded to messages very quickly! She knew great places to shop and eat. Any question or problem that I had was immediately addressed and resolved. The beds were very comfortable and there were plenty of linens for both beds and bath. There were 3 different outside sitting areas which was very helpful because they were situated in such a way that you had a pleasant place to be outside no matter where the sun was positioned. I highly recommend this VRBO!
