This was a wonderful house! Pete is a fantastic host and makes sure you have everything you need. I’d highly recommend staying here. The location couldn’t be better - right in the town and walkable to most of the places we went to during the weekend.

VRBO sent a confirmation stating 0 pets when I had listed Sparky as a guest. Also, the house sleeps 7, but VRBO’s program only allowed a maximum of 5 to be input. Then the waterfall of advertising texts they sent was very annoying. Pete and his place are gems; just wish VRBO was better.

Beautiful and immaculately clean home. Owner was very easy to communicate with regarding check in. We didn’t have any questions to communicate about during our stay but I’m sure it would have been easy. Location is perfect—easy walk to marina and around the town. Listing is accurate. Would rent again.

A very comfortable home with all the wonderful characteristics of an older home. Peter has done a thoughtful job with all the little touches - from decor to bandaids to kitchen and linen supplies and to spices. Bed in the master was very comfortable. Great location -Walking distance to waterfront and shops in Jamestown.

Great house in a perfect location!

This house was perfect for our group with good sized rooms for everyone and plenty of linens etc. The location couldn't be beat with lots of cute restaurants and shops just a block away. Pete, our host, was super helpful and easy to communicate with. Added bonus, he supplies coffee pods for a Keurig--so handy when travelling! We would definitely book the house again and really appreciate how easy Pete made our stay!

Historic home in excellent location

This property is in a walkable location, near the waterfront, restaurants and shops. The house itself is comfortable and welcoming, with all the charm that comes with an historic home--front and back staircases, random width flooring, etc.! We enjoyed sitting on the front porch with our coffee and thought the backyard was lovely. Pete, our host, went above and beyond! I would highly recommend!

Fantastic home and location

We absolutely loved our stay here. The house felt warm and welcoming and comfortably accommodated 8 of us. It was extremely clean, which is a top priority for us when we travel. The location is perfect…easy walk into town to shop, listen to live music, eat delicious food, and be near the water. The porch was our favorite spot to enjoy morning coffee, say hi to locals passing by and have a nice drink to relax at the end of the day. Pete was very friendly and responsive. He has created a beautiful home space to enjoy and Jamestown has so much to offer. We loved everything about our experience! Highly recommend!!
