The house is exactly as pictured with a great yard as well for our dog to run around. House was tidy and we loved sitting on the covered front porch. There is also a park at the end of the block as well. The house is close to the waterfront and there are lots of restaurants and shops within easy walking distance.Our host (Gail) was very responsive as well. I highly recommend this rental home.

This is a grest place to stay especially if you have a dog. Fenced yard, footsteps from Franklin Park. You can walk almost everywhere especially to the waterfront and restaurants. It is very clean and she has stocked it with everything......much better than a hotel. The decor and cottage layout is charming. I am hoping to stay there again. Communication was great!
