This was an amazing stay for my wife and close friends. The host was incredibly polite and communicated exceptionally well. Can’t say enough good things about this property and its owner. If you find yourself in or around Burlington, this property will feel much more comfortable and home-y than any hotel in the area.

We absolutely loved our stay at the Retro Rectory! The entire house was spotless, fully functional, and thoughtfully decorated. The young adults in our group were thoroughly entertained by the vinyls in the music room. Donna was super accommodating and let us know the day of that the house was ready for us and we were free to come early. Great neighborhood with walking path along the river, shops, and park nearby. Would stay again without a doubt!

The property literally was a blast to the past! From the black and white checkered floor, to the Ronald McDonald cups in the kitchen!

What a delightful, clean, and comfortable home!....and talk about 1950's motif, right out of central casting, and very tastefully done at that.....and with all the modern features you need as well.Home is cozy and comforting but with plenty of elbow room.....and everything works to a T.The location is ideal.We communicated with our host Donna to introduce ourselves and go over general topics and she was very responsive, helpful, and welcoming.There were even Christmas decorations out, a very thoughtful bonus on Donna's part.We will return for certain.....

Family Wedding

Great location! We were within walking distance of downtown Burlington, which had a nice street festival taking place and was close to excellent food. In addition, we were just minutes away from the venue for a family members wedding. The place was clean and exactly what was described in the overview of the place. Would definitely stay there again!

Perfect Little House

This charming house was very clean and all of our accommodations were wonderful. We attended a wedding at Mercantile Hall just a few blocks away, so the location was perfect. It was walking distance to everything downtown: breakfast, dinner, bars, wedding hall, coffee shops. Our group of 4 was very comfortable but there was plenty of room for a couple more. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and highly recommend this house!
