Great place to stay.

This was a wonderful place for a short stay. The only issues we encountered were one stained sheet that was on the queen bed., the mattress in the main bedroom was too soft, and the mattress in the spare bedroom was too hard.

Great stay!

This is a clean, cute and well kept property! I have had unpleasant surprises with stays before. Happy to report this was stellar. It is a small house. It was perfect as a hotel replacement. I would certainly stay again.

Great stay

We had a great stay, tiny but we didn’t need much room. It was clean and host was quick to reply. It is not very toddler friendly but that is not a negative necessarily just something to keep in mind.

Very Charming!

This house was perfect for my daughter and I. It had everything we needed, was very clean and decorated nicely. The bathroom was very spacious and the bed in the main bedroom was very comfortable. The only negative was the comfort level of the futon in the second bedroom. This host was also very responsive and accommodating.
