This property was perfect for our family to gather for my daughter's wedding which was held locally. We had everything we needed, a beautiful screened porch overlooking the pond, comfy beds, full kitchen, and a movie room. We were able to go to Atkins market for local veggies and after the wedding we were able to get to Rehoboth Beach boardwalk! Perfect stay! Host was great!

It's a nice house in a nice neighborhood, very good for our family visits. The downstairs bedroom/bath works for an 89-year old man with limited mobility. Kitchen is well equipped. Didn't use the basement entertainment area. Liked the screened porch overlooking the pond. In the Spring it's not so covered with the nuisance weeds.

Great location to Salisbury University

Came to Salisbury to watch my daughter play a few soccer games at Salisbury University this past weekend. Location was perfect for our family and friends to hang out while in town to support my daughter. Highly recommend this place and if we need a place in this area in the future, we will be staying here.

Great house for group or family

We loved our stay where we met up with family from two different areas. We had plenty of space, kitchen with everything we needed to cook at home, and were able to drive 45-60 minutes to Ocean City and Chincoteague for day trips. The host was responsive as well.

Salisbury graduation

House was in a great location for attending graduation events at Salisbury University. Large enough space for immediate family and grandparents. Only negative was that one of the 4 bedrooms was listed as having 2 double beds, instead had one double bed with a twin trundle underneath

The house was clean, beautiful, and comfortable. One of my friends got injured on the beach, needed a walker. The house layout was great even injured. Not exactly the vacation we expected, but not because of the house.

Better than expected

I did not find many listings in or near Salisbury so I naturally assumed that the bar would be low when we got to this house. This rental is in one of the nicer neighborhoods in Salisbury. It's beautiful country, there was a great "lake feel" to the place that made you feel more remote than you actually were. Will stay here again and I would recommend others as well.

Beautiful home and location

Beautiful home and location, loved the pond view from enclosed porch. Was very close to the zoo and family activities, shops and restaurants. If I had to point out a "bad" thing? Something that is not in the control of the owners....the driveway entrance is narrow, and takes some maneuvering, haha. But there is ample street parking, anyway. Enjoyed our stay!

The house was lovely and in a nice, quiet neighborhood. The kitchen, deck, and master bedroom looked out on the pond, which was neat. The kitchen was well stocked. The place was spotless. We were six adults and there was plenty of room to spread out comfortably. Note that the owners are very energy conscious. There are smart thermostats set at certain temperatures. You can change them but they revert after a while to the default programming. Additionally, the bathrooms all have sensors so the lights go out if you are not moving around enough or are in the shower. Overall, we enjoyed our stay and would return!

Sibling Reunion was Perfect

My 3 sisters flew in from around the country and we spent a long weekend in this house in the town of our childhood. Being together made for an amazing weekend but the house added to the enjoyment. It was clean, comfortable, well-stocked, and the neighborhood was quiet. We thoroughly enjoyed reconnecting in this beautiful home. I thought the lack of control of the heating/AC temp was going to be an issue, but a text to the local host and it was quickly resolved. Really appreciated her reaching out with her contact before the start of the visit and was quick with responses. Thank you for sharing your house with us.
