Hosted by Bruce Ackman
Lynn and Bruce have lived in Providence for many years. We are experienced hosts and proud of this beautiful property. We enjoy interacting with guests and going the extra mile to make sure their stay in Providence, and in our home, is as enjoyable and successful as possible. We're both well connected to the community with ties into the clinical, sports and social networks and we would love to host you at one of our properties.
Why they chose this property
Lynn and Bruce had the opportunity to purchase this established rental property after co-hosting it for some time. Being close friends with the former owner, who established high standards for a very successful rental, we're committed to maintaining or exceeding these. It's a beautiful, spacious and historic home which reflects our vision of comfort, elegance and refinement which we hope our hosts will appreciate.
