From the minute we stepped into this lovely home, we felt welcomed. Water and snacks were provided, extra toiletries were available if needed, and even a sweet”happy birthday”balloon was waiting for our daughter to celebrate her special day. The house was cozy and exactly as advertised. We enjoyed every minute of our stay.

Everything was very clean, Lisa the host was exceptional. Was a little Leary of the surroundings after dark. Especially with it just being me and my granddaughter. But other wise it was great.

Thank you for your stay and glad you liked the house. Unfortunately during your weekend our long time neighbors were moving so there was a little more activity on the street. Nothing other than a moving truck and men moving out the contents of the house.

Lovely home with special touches

We enjoyed our stay. The home was very clean. There was an abundance of toiletries, snacks, towels, kitchen items, laundry necessities, etc. I felt like the owner knew me when I found the coffee and half and half in the fridge. The story of the history of the place was special to read. Instructions for check in and check out were clear. Very nice visit and we would stay again. Thank you.

The place is a row home, with plenty of amenities inside and all parts functional. From the front door you enter into a living room, then to a dining room and then the kitchen (which is the back of the house).We were there, unfortunately, to attend a family funeral followed by a celebration of life on the next day. So, needless to say we did not have much spare time, Still, one bathroom worked fro 3 persons and the kitchen was where we sat around and ate breakfast at the start of each hectic day. I liked the Kerig coffee machine and the choice of coffees and our son like the tea selection.
