This was my third stay here. Peter is a wonderful host. The house is quaint (as one would expect in a 100 year old home) and filled with interesting art and objects that add character. My daughter and grandchildren (12 and 5) joined me, and they loved the pool. Kevin the peacock was added entertainment. I am already planning another stay next summer.

This home was comfy, historic, and fun. The beds were comfortable, the kitchen was functional, and the back yard was great for hanging out. The kids enjoyed the pool even though it was kind of cold at the time of our trip. Kevin and Pammie Jean the peacocks were beautiful! We learned about the home’s history and that was very interesting. The hosts were great, wonderful and fast communication from before booking until after we left. We would definitely recommend staying here! Thank you!

Wonderful, very roomy, older house with antiques and lots of mystique. The bedrooms were roomy and beds were very comfortable. The pool has a ramp and steps, and has a truly deep section. The grill has both gas and charcoal/wood capabilities. Communication with the host was a pleasure. I will definitely use this place again.

This home has character and history! I must say our favorite part was the backyard. The pool was so fun! The plants were amazing with a big mix of tropicals and trees. The peacocks were so pretty. I kept waiting to hear them call but didn't hear a peep. The sound of the fountain was very relaxing. Rocking on the front porch was also enjoyable. We had fun playing games in the sunroom upstairs, listening to records with a great view of the sky from all the windows as the sun set. We're Peanuts fans and happened to find a collection of Charlie Brown albums with books inside! There are kid's books and a few dolls, and some yoga mats and dumbbells upstairs. The town had some interesting stores and restaurants we wished we had more time to explore, so we may have to come back. NOTE: It is an old home with some tight spaces in the living room and kitchen, and soft spots in the floor that lend to the character but may not be suitable if you require space for a wheelchair or walker.

Vacation with a pool

Delightful time in this 1916 house with a pool. We had the best time. Loved the uniqueness of the house. Loved the sunroom. Loved the creaky floors. Loved the pool and outdoor area. Enjoyed the peacock, chickens and pheasants. Would go back and stay again.

Fun.....Fun.....Fun....

My family thoroughly enjoyed the Kaspar House. We enjoyed reading the history and sharing in the mystery. The pool was amazing. The peacock and chickens fun (we didn't realize until our last day that they could've roamed free in the yard). Peter and Mike were super friendly and responsive to our needs. I would love to stay again.
