We had a wonderful stay in Norwood Young America! The house was spotless and thoughtfully stocked with all the essentials, which made our trip so easy. We loved the beautiful yard and the quiet neighborhood—it’s just a short, pleasant walk to a cute local diner for breakfast.The highlight for me, however, was the hospitality. I was devastated when I realized I’d left my AirPods behind, but the owner was kind enough to ship them back to me immediately. Truly a 5-star experience, and I would definitely stay here again!

We are happy you enjoyed the house. The neighborhood is actually very very safe. Since we have owned the home for 10 years, there has been no crime or vandalism and we would feel safe walking around the neighborhood at midnight.

Great place to stay

This home was easy find, lots of parking, great accessibility to unload stuff. It was clean and neat with lots of space. Communication with the host was great and the beds were very comfortable. Even had great water pressure in the shower! Seemed to have everything on hand we had forgotten and was easy to get in and out. Highly recommend!

The house was very nice. The bedroom at the right top of the stairs was very comfortable. We got groceries for several days (to avoid eating out) and found the kitchen well stocked with necessary utensils and cookware. We took a moment to play Parchese. I have one suggestion- put an film on the bathroom window to allow light in, but poeple cannot see into the bathroom. Thank you for everything. We plan to rent the house again for another visit.

We really enjoyed our stay at the Red House! It was super clean and had everything we needed for our 2 week stay. The host was very friendly and responsive. The kitchen was fully functional and well equipped. We were very comfortable. We will have the house on a return to list.
