Very comfortable and homey house. It was so convenient to our wedding venue, Amsler Hills Winery. We found excellent places for breakfast and pizza close by. The variety and comfort of sleeping accommodations would make it great for any kind of gathering. The host was very easy to communicate with and check in and out was easy. Thanks for making a special weekend even better!

Cute, clean, and comfortable home! Great location; close to the grocery store and gas station and a short drive to the middle of town. It is close enough to the railroad tracks that run through Bellville to hear the train blowing the horn in the night. I understand that that isn’t unusual in Bellville, but earplugs should help with that. The host was great with communication and quick to respond to any needs. Would love to stay here again!

About the host

Host profile image
Bellville is where I grew up and still call home.

Why they chose this property

This neighborhood is quiet with little to no traffic. You will see the children racing from house to house visiting their friends.

What makes this property unique

I love this charming house full of history and notoriety. For generations, the youth of Bellville came to learn piano here. Long-time residents refer to this house as, Mrs. Menke's house, where they learned piano. Mrs. Menke still teaches piano lessons next door.
