We found the property to be just as it was represented in the listing. It was a great location. Dave was a great host, replying almost instantly to a slight issue we had getting into the place, turned out it was user error. Best stocked kitchen we have had in ages. High quality everything in kitchen as far pots, pans, collunders, knives and silverware, even nice storage containers for lest overs. We had eight of us there in town for a wedding. The five bedrooms and three bathrooms really worked out great. Don’t hesitate to rent this place.

Great house for extended family get together

This house was terrific for our three generation family vacation - grandparents, three children, four young grandchildren. There is space for eating in the kitchen at a big table for 4 plus island for 2, a big dining room for a dozen people (or more), large living room, 5 big bedrooms on two levels, with good (i.e. not fold out) beds plus many additional beds for children sleeping with parents etc.. Very pleasant small backyard patio and grass. The host lives next door and is usually at home, so he could answer questions and helped when we wanted to fill up a kiddie pool. We may return to Salt Lake City just because it was such a good house for our extended family.

Just Perfect!

I brought a group of my voice students with their moms to Salt Lake for a competition at the University. The property was clean and spacious with enough privacy for all to feel like they could get away and think but also enough gathering space to enjoy being together! The beds were comfortable and there were plenty of towels! The host was friendly and responsive. The property is very close to the University and fun places to go. We walked to "The Wildwood," a restaurant down the street (about a block). It was quaint and cute! Great food! Make a reservation because it is small. Thanks for making our stay stress free!!

Beautifully. Maintained Home in Excellent Location

My family of 7 adults and 2 small children visited relatives in the Salt Lake area over a long weekend. Everything about this home was perfect for us. There were 2 bedrooms on the main floor for the older generation unable to do stairs well. The upstairs bedrooms were large and comfortable. The home was equipped with everything we could need! There was plenty of room for us to have a few relatives visit us for dinner. Our group included several runners and walkers who enjoyed exploring the beautiful area around us. The host was always available to answer any of our questions. I would highly recommend this home if you’re in the Salt Lake City area. We had a wonderful stay in this beautiful home!

Marathon

We came into town for the Marathon and stayed a few nights. The house was perfect. Everything was just as advertised. But what I was most impressed by were the details. So many little things were thought or and made easy. From dishwashing soap, toilet paper, coffee, towels, etc. It just seemed like all the little things were there to make our stay easy. And the house does not feel like it was intended to be a VRBO, but more like someone's final home project. The owner casually checked on us to make sure that everything was well, while not interfering. It was a wonderful stay for all of us. Thank you, David.

Great location in a beautiful historic home. Dave, the owner who lives next door who was wonderful, told us a little bit about the history of the house. It would be a nice touch to have the history written up and left in the home for future guests. Jennifer

A beautiful home enhanced the visit

We had visitors from out of town stay here instead of staying at a hotel and this made their visit so much more enjoyable! Most had never been to Utah so to stay in a lovely historical home elevated their experience. The hosts were easily accessible and accommodating. The home was beautiful and had everything they needed to enjoy their stay. So much room that one of the guests led a yoga session for everyone each morning!

Great place to stay on short notice!

Our daughter was admitted to Primary Children's hospital, and we needed a place to stay. This home was close, but it was also really nice! It's beautiful, clean, well stocked, and with a really great location. We would definitely stay here again (though hopefully in different circumstances).

Big house for an extended family

The host, who lives next door, was very responsive and accommodating. Very big bedrooms, kitchen, and dining room, so it was easy to have twelve people sharing the house, while feeling as though there was plenty of space. This was our second time staying in the house, we highly recommend it!

Great historic SLC house

This was a GREAT house, well kept, clean and convenient. It was perfect for my family, especially for my elderly parents, since it has kitchen, dining room, living room, two bedrooms and bathroom with a walk-in shower on the ground floor level. The neighborhood was quiet and great for short walks. Dave provided good restaurant recommendations for places nearby. Overall, a great stay and would definitely rent this house again.
