Police & Fire games
We came up for the games. The place was clean. We enjoyed the spacious accommodations. There was 7 adults staying in the house and it was a lot of space for us. If you don’t like old houses, this isn’t place for you. That’s not us!! Loved it.

Honest Feedback
The property was not but not quite as pictured. I think the furniture in the living area needs to be replaced. Also, pay close attention to the bathrooms. There is only one full bath upstairs and one downstairs which can be tricky for three couples and a little misleading when there are "4 rooms".

Response from VrboOwner on 17 June 2024
Thank you for the review. I am sorry you felt it wasn't as pictured. We did put a new table to fit the historic feel of the home. The upstairs 2nd bathroom is intended to be a full bath with a handle for the shower portion. I am sorry for any confusion, we never want to mislead anyone. We aim to be the best host we can.
