What a great little spot in downtown Harrisonburg. It is incredible walkable to campus and all of the shops and restaurants downtown. Great location, the house was super cozy. Great natural lighting. And check in/out was smooth and simple. The hosts were very easy to communicate. I would definitely recommend and stay there again for a future visit.
This is a perfect little spot near downtown Harrisonburg. The neighborhood is safe, parking is easy, and the house provided everything we needed for a quick trip. The beds and couches were very comfortable and everything was clean and in working order. Would definitely book again!
We were very pleased with this house, exceptionally clean and comfortable, and located near the downtown of Harrisonburg. When we return to Harrisonburg we hope to rent this place again.

Thank you so much for the kind review! It was a delight to host you and we will look forward to your next visit! :)
This was a super convenient location for me to attend an orientation at JMU for graduate school! Within walking distance of campus and downtown it was perfect! Nice and clean, although I wish I had known there would be downstairs neighbors beforehand. Other than that, I thought everything was great!
This small yet perfect size home was located near local businesses of all sorts (restaurant, shops, groceries, etc) yet tucked away on a side street that was quiet and offered peace and quiet.
The home itself was cozy with muted colors and a welcoming atmosphere. Though it was a short over night stay for us, we appreciated all this home offered. Clean comfortable rooms, inviting furniture, and adequate linens, dishes, and throw blankets. Highly recommend this place. Would stay again.
Location, cleanliness, and check-in were great. We never heard the tenant downstairs either. It’s spacious and fit our needs well. There was even some welcome snacks our kids were excited about. They do need to add a curtain in the bathroom, and thanked us for our feedback on that. We’d definitely stay here again!
