Exquisite Property and Host

I rented this gorgeous home for family to stay and to hold my mother’s funeral reception. The property is incredible—well decorated, fantastically equipped, and charmingly beautiful. I can’t say enough about Maria as a host. Warm, attentive, and responsive at all times. I can’t recommend this property and host highly enough!

Graduation celebration

We were in town with 3 generations to celebrate a college graduation. The house was perfect for all the family-plenty of space to be together and private space as well. The owner was very helpful during our stay. The house has everything you might need-down to lint rollers and qtips in each bathroom. It’s a beautiful, historic space.

Maria was a wonderful host with a stunning property. She was very responsive in her communications and gave us a personal tour of the property upon check in. We had a family dinner and professional photographs taken for my mother's birthday and could not have found a better property. Each of the four bedrooms has it's own bathroom and kitchenette, which was perfect for my mom and her sisters, some visiting from out of state, to all sleep under one roof just like when they were little girls. Maria even gifted us a bottle of homemade Lemoncello, which was so delish! We will will definitely be renting from Maria again!
Seating for four, adjacent to main dining room table
Farm style seating for 10. 4 chairs on one side, bench for 4 on opposite side, one chair at each end.
Bar area, complete with glasses, Babe Ruth memorabilia and history of the house (not pictured).

Amazing!

My bridesmaids and I stayed here the night before our wedding, and all of us plus our moms got ready for our wedding at the VRBO. It had amazing spaces for photos, for laughs, and for celebrating! The whole space was incredibly clean and beautiful, and very lovely! The host was so gracious and communicative as well. We would love to stay again when we need a staycation. Thank you again so much!!
