This was such a quaint home. It was homey and comfortable. There was more than enough room for our 9 family members. Each couple had their own private room. and the gathering areas were spacious. The front porch was our favorite place to hang out!The host was very accommodating and communicated everything very thoroughly.

Absolutely Delightful!

My husband and I and our two dogs came to Harrisonburg to celebrate the birth of our new grandbaby. This lovely home was so cute and perfectly located. Just a few short blocks to Green Berrys Coffee Shop made our morning walk special. Downtown restaurants were less than a mile from the property. Check in was a breeze, and Wesley was a gracious owner having Kcups available, linens and some basics in case you forgot anything g (soap, antacids, headache medicine, etc)! Absolutely perfect!

Clean, well maintained and stylish

Wesley is a great host and the house is very cute. It is an older house and the rooms are small but we knew that. Only drawback is small kitchen without a dishwasher. Just need to keep that in mind when planning meals.

Charming house within walking distance of downtown Harrisonburg

Myself and some coworkers rented this property for a work retreat. We stayed here because of its proximity to downtown (0.8 miles) so that we could walk to/from work. The house was very nice and clean, and each person had a private bedroom. Admittedly, we didn't spend all that much time at the property. We'd walk to work early in the morning and walk back later in the evening after dinner and activities. That said, the house was comfortable and we had no major issues. Will stay again the next time I'm in Harrisonburg! Thanks!

EMU Graduation Weekend

Wonderful home for family to be together. Our daughter's little place across the street from campus wouldn't comfortably accommodate all of us ... but New York Place was perfect! Super clean, everything we needed: parking, flexible spaces for gathering, dining, resting, etc. Wes is a very responsive and personable host. Great location with easy access to everywhere we wanted to go. It's even better than the photos show it to be! We're looking forward to returning.

The home is thoughtfully decorated with such attention to detail—Soaps and shampoos, lotions, to the tray of items in case u forgot something ! This weekend a bowl of chocolates for Valentine’s Day was left for us! So nice !!!! We will be returning again and again. Thank you!!

Fabulous place, fabulous owner--A+++

Our daughter is a freshman at JMU and we were finally able to come for a weekend to visit. We wanted a place that was close to campus yet give us the room to cookout and chill and meet a few of her friends. This house was PERFECT for that. We loved everything about it. The details put into the house for guests is top notch. linens, towels, shampoos, conditioner in every room, a nice supply of TP, basket of items in case we may have forgotten them, coffee, snacks, trash bags, dish soap! We walked the dog around the neighborhood, played games in the backyard, brought our own portable grill and cooked out, sat on the swing, walked to coffee nearby....a truly wonderful weekend during an off year with COVID. Felt like we were finally able to get a feel of Harrisonburg and JMU. Wes was extremely helpful with any questions and super responsive. We have several years left making this trip and sure hope to make this our JMU home away from home. Thank you!!!!!
