Robert was a great communicator and answered all questions rapidly! We were fortunate enough to be there during the Shrewsbury Fall Festival, which was just steps from the house!
Our family loved the location and the updates the home had. Very pretty. Nice yard that hosted family and friends we haven’t seen in years from when we used to live in Shrewsbury (now Texas). 10/10 would stay again and recommend to anyone.
The house was perfect, it was everything we were expecting! Very clean and smelled so good when we entered! Kitchen was well stocked, would definitely recommend and rent again.
Check in/parking instructions were not clear enough. Host was very responsive though. and check out instructions were not given until I asked for them. House was super clean and beds were comfy!

Hi Maura, glad to hear the home was clean & comfy. Sorry to hear about the parking confusion. I will add a note for future renters to park in the driveway adjacent to our garage with the home number on the wall. Also, for your future reference, checkout instructions are in your booking details, no need to ask the renter, but we do try to respond quickly, as you mentioned. Safe travels back to Maine. We were just there last month, a beautiful state!

A charming Colonial townhouse, obviously recently renovated to a high degree. Beautiful arrangements, luxurious master bathroom, charming backyard. Would stay again in a heartbeat!
Our host decorated the house for Christmas so we were very excited to celebrate the holidays with this added touch. Plenty of everything in the house and the fenced in yard was just what we needed for our pups. Great stay!!!
Very clean and comfortable house. The neighborhood was quiet even on a main road. Beds were comfortable. All the bedrooms were on the second and third floor. Very comfortable rooms. A nice large yard. I saw my first red cardinal. A nice park and antique store were within walking distance. Our stay was very enjoyable and I would book this home again if I ever get back out to PA.
Owner is very responsive and accommodating. The home was absolutely adorable. I was honestly surprised at how roomy it was for our group. We especially loved the board game selection. Amenity-wise, it had everything that we needed for our stay. There are multiple antique shops, a grocery store, coffee/ice cream parlor, playground, pizza shop, and a locally owned restaurant all within walking distance. Just wish it was a little warmer outside as we would have definitely loved to sit out back on the patio and relax/grill some food. Would rebook again in a heartbeat. Thank you so much for a lovely stay!
It true! Like all the other reviews. This place is top notch! It has everything you need and then some. Quiet neighborhood. Smells great upon opening the door. It’s bright, clean, newly remodeled, comfortable beds, comfortable temperature, spacious and cozy at the same time. Fresh water waiting in the refrigerator, coffee in the cupboard. Back yard was beautiful and a perfect place for coffee in the morning listening to all the birds. This place didn’t lack anything. Host made sure we checked in ok. We didn’t need anything or have any problems so we didn’t hear from them again until we left. I definitely recommend this home. You won’t be disappointed!
Very clean, cozy, and very comfortable home which is also pet-friendly! We enjoyed our stay here while in town for a family event. It was exactly what we needed including a good night’s sleep in a comfortable bed to enjoy our son’s wedding. Host was very communicative as well. Thank you so much for a memorable stay!
