Great place to stay!
It was a wonderful place for my daughter and her friends to stay at for her wedding.
It was close to the church, hair shop and activity center where the reception was held. It was neat and clean and great place to stay!

Very clean, updated and cute vacation home.
Our stay here was very lovely. Exceptionally clean and very cozy. Thank you!
The Historic Deshler Library was great! Plenty of room for the whole family to have space. Loved that there is 3 bathrooms. The kitchen is perfect and up to date and even had coffee pods for the coffee maker, and lots of spices we forgot to bring for Christmas dinner. Only suggestion we would add is to add some nice pillow toppers to the beds. Thank you for the lovely stay!

We had a great stay while attending a family reunion.
My husband and I along with my 3 sisters and their husband's all stayed here at the Historic Deshler Library. Check in was easy and we all walked down to a bar down the street to have a pizza and listen to some music. We stayed for 3 nights and enjoyed all staying in one place. This place was amazing with all the books to look at, games to play, coffee to enjoy, clean as a whistle and checkout was easy also. We will be back and plan to stay here again. Don't pass on this place as it's amazing.
We loved this spacious modern property with a historic twist! The lower level had plenty of room for the kids to play or watch a movie as the adults were on the main floor cooking and playing games while the big game was on a second tv.
We were so glad to arrive at this location. We had a flat tire in the pouring rain 2 miles from arriving. We were soaking wet and tired and the unit was a welcome place to land for the night before our next leg of our journey the next day. We all had quiet, pristinely clean and well kept bedrooms, huge kitchen/ dining area and quiet area. We loved it and wished we could have stayed longer.
Wow!! Definitely one of the top vacation rentals I have stayed in. What a fun property with tons of space!! Everything was super new and clean, and the house was perfect for our family stay. If you’re looking for a rental in this area, just book this now. You won’t find a better price or space in any of the neighboring towns. Location is great, you can walk to the local bar and grocery store. Also, there is an entire downstairs “rec space” that isn’t shown in the photos, but is great for kids to run around or for watching sports games! I wish we had more time to stay and enjoy this property because it was truly unique and special!
