Absolutely lovely stay! Due to some flight issues we weren’t able to enjoy our stay for as long as planned but Mikkie was so lovely and accommodating. The house is absolutely adorable and was exactly what we were looking for. The location was great as well. The property is perfect for a couple. Would definitely come back again.

This little garden house is truly charming. Located in a very nice and quiet neighborhood in West Medford. Mikkie was very responsive to all of our inquiries. We particularly loved petting Cooper, the beautiful Labrador. Would stay there again with no hesitation.

Mikkie welcomed us personally to the apartment along with her very friendly and well behaved black lab. The basement apartment was thoughtfully set up to make us feel right at home. Everything was spotless and worked well making things easy. Driving there from Logan airport is straightforward and parking was conveniently right in front of the house on a quiet street.Mikkie's personal touches make for a comfy, cozy and restful experience.

Fabulous time in Medford! Mikkie, our host, is an amazing human. She steered us in the right direction for lovely walks, yummy food & drinks. Restaurants & cute shops walkable with easy access to public transportation in to Boston. Her back garden is an oasis - we enjoyed morning coffee & evening cocktails! We loved our spacious & well-stocked apartment. It truly was PERFECT!

Mikkie made sure the bed situation was great for both of our kids, and everything overall. There is a binder in the kitchen that was very organized with places to eat, housekeeping tips and checkout procedures. She greeted us every morning as we went out and asked if we needed anything. The place was very comfortable and clean and had everything we needed for our 6 night stay there! I would highly recommend this place to anyone, and we would very likely stay there again next time we visit!

Our stay was wonderful. We got to walk through a beautiful arbor and walkway full of flowers to the apartment. Everything was clean and just waiting for us to enjoy our stay. The neighborhood is very quiet. Mikki is very responsive to all of your messages. After a couple of long hot days sight seeing in Boston it was a wonderful place to rest. It is a very easy drive into Boston and a great way place to get away from the busyness of the big city. Medford is a cute town. Mikki also makes great recommendations on where to eat. You will love your stay at her apartment.

The entrance to the apartment and the arbor way have been updated and I'm glad you got to rest and relax in the gardens. The apartment is indeed well located for lots of things in Boston and it's great that you got to find a balance between exploring and and downtime. We look forward to having you back!

Mikkie was the consummate host! First, we had to add a day to our trip and she happily accommodated us. We had a couple of specific needs for our stay, and she answered us quickly so we knew it would be appropriate lodging for us as we ventured to and from Mass Gen Hospital for our appointments.She was able to greet us and give us all the details.The apartment is attached to the main house, and has a stairwell entry. The place is cute, quiet, abundantly stocked with the comforts of home, and the neighborhood is lovely and is very safe and friendly. Just a short walk to the Mystic River.We took Ubers into the city and back, so the travel was stress free. If we need to visit the area again, we will definitely first check here for availabilities.

This charming garden apartment was perfect for my husband and I during our five night stay. It is clean & cozy with a beautiful backyard garden that even lights up at night. This was our first visit to Boston and wanted a place that was close to Cambridge, the downtown area and to the airport. The neighborhood is also near the river for nature walks and has easy access to grocery stores, public transportation, etc. The apartment has everything you need to feel right at home. The host is super organized and friendly. The booking was easy to do & the host kept in touch to make sure everything was Ok. She was also very responsive if we had any questions.Overall we had a wonderful stay & would recommend it to anyone who wants to stay in a good location at a reasonable price.

We stayed here on May 5-8, 2026. It was wonderful. Our plane was delayed to Boston, which made us getting in later. Mikkie was able to accommodate us no problem. The backyard is beautiful. It has beautiful lights and plants. I wish we had more time there just to relax in the back yard. The apartment was well equipped and Mikkie even gave us distilled water for our cpap machines. She gave us information for good places to eat. We were within a couple of miles of Cambridge, which is where my son was graduating from college. It was a great trip and I would stay here again!
