Perfect for groups

We had an absolutely fabulous stay here. We were a group in town for a memorial service, and this beautiful home had everything we needed. Clean, comfortable, in an idyllic setting. Would highly recommend for groups of any size. The host was super helpful, great communication and was always available. Thanks for hosting us

Family Get Together

This house provided the perfect accommodations and location for our family get together. We were able to sleep 9 comfortably. The house was clean, the beds were comfortable and the host was extremely responsive. We will certainly rent this house again when we need the extra room.

Eclectic historic home

Tamara was very responsive and welcoming. We were visiting family and needed overflow for our large family. The historic home was unique with original touches and more modern upgrades. The bedrooms were very comfortable. We had a great time!

Liked: Communication
Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities
The bones of this property are great but very run down. Needs a good dusting on windows especially in upstairs bathroom. And there should be top sheets on beds, not just fitted. And more kitchen amenities like non perishable creamer for coffee... These amenities would make up for slightly dilapidated environment.
