Great location for visit to RPI

We enjoyed this house a short distance from RPI. Definitely walkable, although we ended up driving. Kitchen had lots of small appliances and everything needed for cooking. Host was extremely easy to communicate with. Bedroom are upstairs, family areas downstairs. We will be back!

A darn good deal

A bargain deal, amazing house, amazing everything. I was a customer at the "other house reserving website" and this is my first vrbo. I most likely would come back to this place. So close to the grocery stores. So close to many attractions. It's very well situated. House is huge, bigger than I expected. Very comfortable, feels like home to me. Host left out some food and water for us, really nice. One of my top 3 house rental experiences of the past decade.
