This home was an absolute gem! The hostess was beyond accommodating and friendly. The place was impeccably clean and very nicely decorated. The house itself is super neat because it was built in the early 1900s with some original fixtures but has been tastefully entirely re modeled. There was ample room for our family who visited from Florida for an extended family reunion nearby. The beds were very comfortable and every room had shades and blackout curtains. My kids thoroughly enjoyed kids toys and games available in the nursery. Since we had several adult couples the separated spaces on the second and third floors were perfect. The outdoor space was also perfect. . Thank you so much for sharing your place with us!!

Great stay

This is a lovely spacious home in a quaint and quiet community. The kitchen is a dream and the house is even roomier than it appears in the photos. And the owners are very responsive. I look forward to a return visit.

Home away from home

Lisa was a great host with communicating for every question we had about the property. Also offered us so much info about what was going on in area. The home was so spacious for my big family. It was tidy and clean with all necessities. We will definitely stay here again!

Lisa’s home was an absolute pleasure to stay in. It was beautiful, charming, and incredibly welcoming. The backyard was peaceful and relaxing the perfect place to unwind after long days at the basketball tournament.We traveled with a large group for our kids’ tournament, and one of our favorite parts of the stay was that there was plenty of seating for everyone to gather around the table. It was the first trip where we were all able to eat together like one big family. The beds were very comfortable, the showers had amazing water pressure, and the air conditioning kept the home cool and comfortable despite the summer heat. The kitchen was fully stocked with everything we needed to cook and even bake.Lisa was an outstanding host from start to finish. She was incredibly responsive, answered every question quickly, and gave us fantastic recommendations for things to do during our downtime. She was genuinely kind and thoughtful, and even surprised each of our players with a small gift waiting for them when we arrived. That personal touch meant so much to all of us.This was, without a doubt, one of the best Vrbo experiences we’ve ever had. We would absolutely stay here again and highly recommend Lisa’s home to anyone visiting the area!

Perfect for Families with Kids

My husband, mother-in-law, 7-month-old baby, and I stayed over the Thanksgiving holiday. The house was PERFECT for our needs - spotlessly clean, spacious, extremely well-equipped, and very comfortable. Lisa was so friendly and communicative, and she provided almost everything we needed for the baby, including toys, multiple crib options, tub mat, tub toys, baby towels. The house is on a quiet street but is only half a block to a grocery/liquor store, restaurants, bar, coffee shop, and the train. If we have occasion to be back in the area, we will definitely stay here again!

A vital component of my wedding day

My husband and I booked this home to gather with our bridal parties and families on our wedding day while we got ready. This home was cozy, picture perfect, and big enough to comfortable host our bridal party. We ended up taking the majority of our group pictures in the backyard because it was simply gorgeous. Thank you to Lisa the host for being so attentive to detail and in going above and beyond as our host. In light of the wedding she left us some strawberries, a bouquet of white roses and wine. The house is worth the price and more. With endless amounts of opportunities to make your stay as fun and as comfortable as possible. There are instruments (which we definitely enjoyed), games, tv’s, etc. And there are so many cooking utensils and seasonings that we really were well taken care of. To try to show how beautiful this home really is in the few pictures is impossible. When we arrived, though I knew it was going to be nice, it was overwhelmingly beautiful, it was tidy, clean, and warm. It will definitely exceed your expectations! 100% recommend this home to everyone!
