Home away from home.

My out of town daughters and granddaughters stayed with me in this home to have a little more space for a long weekend. Staying in such an old house definately made our weekend more fun and interesting. The house is wonderful with all its quirky features. The host was great as well. Thank you for a wonderful stay.

Time capsule

This house is situated on the mainstreet of a quiet old town. Walking into this house is entering a time capsule with the antique interior, from the lights to wood floors. Out the backdoor is a patch of grass covered yard, perfect for the dog in your family. The three bedrooms are at the top of a set of old fashioned stairs, that you will need to take care using. The four beds are very firm with plenty of pillows and blankets. The main bathroom is also upstairs. The water pressure and hot water are amazing. The note on the fridge from the host asks that the pets be crated while you are out of the house and to keep the pet of the future. Which is a respectful request to protect the house. My tips for renting this house are to bring mattress foams for those who need a softer nights rest, bring crate for pet, bring laundry soap (double check if washer/dryer are in working order) and if you prefer filtered water, buy Crystal Geyser drinking water, it is the best.

Good stay.

It is definitely an old place. I like older properties though since Im a history person. So the timelss stay definitely fit the advertising. It could use some detailed instructions on where to put the garbage and things like that but besides that a good place to stay for the price. Be warned on the stairs...not for elderly or frail people. They were put in before the safety standards I suppose. It was more like climbing a ladder. Also the clawfoot tub is not for a fragile person. You have to step up into it...almost climb in. I loved the host though. Very easy to communicate with and very responsive.

Not a place for older people. The house is very quirky. Very clean and fairly comfortable. Stairs are a nightmare, very steep and narrow. To shower you need to get in claw foot tub with no grab bars or anything to hang onto. If you aren't fully awake, when you open the frig you will be! The creak in the hinges will wake you. The kitchen faucet may end up in your hand! It could be much nicer with some quick changes. Maybe listing the history of the house would people accept the quirks.

This house is a whooole viiibe!

Listen, you’ve gotta appreciate old houses…very old houses…and we do! Not gonna lie, we arrived at night and it had a very haunted house vibe but we were down for the adventure! Old, eclectic furniture, oil paintings, knickknacks, estate sale type of decor which matched the house and the area perfectly (though it’s hard to tell this from the online pics)…It’s definitely an experience…kind of hard to put it into words actually bc it is unlike any place we have ever stayed. We thought it was really cool but it may not be for everyone. If luxury and modern amenities is your thing, this one may not fit your style…it felt like staying in a museum, or a time capsule…it was very cozy for hanging around in though, very comfortable…our main complaint would be that there is not one decent sized bed in the house. There are two fulls and two singles, and bc my husband and I weren’t comfortable (small, old, super springy and small full mattress), we had to sleep in separate rooms. Also, the shower situation needs some attention. It’s a cool old claw foot tub but a pipe has been Jerry-Rigged with a shower head at the end of it and there is no way to adjust it, also no way to keep the water from getting out on to the floor so the whole situation is kind of flustering. All in all it is clean and has what you need (kitchen stuff etc.). The kids decided they loved it bc it was “cool”and “kooky” and with a few tweaks, my husband and I would 💯 agree! The owner was incredibly responsive!
