We didn’t want to leave! Our stay was very enjoyable. The home was more than we could ever ask for. The home was clean and spacious and the host Gwenevere was a true delight. She answered all our questions and knows exactly how to make her guests feel right st home. The kitchen and bathroom were fully stocked and we didn’t want for anything. It was truly the little things and thoughtful touches that makes this home a gem.

Spacious Family Home

This home was perfect for our family gathering. We were in the area for a Family event. We needed 5 bedrooms and this home was nice and spacious. We loved the kitchen! We all felt at home. We could have used a larger dining room table and more chairs, but we used the kitchen island which definitely helped with the extra seating. The bathrooms and kitchen were clean and the kitchen was well appointed with everything we needed. Great location and it was a quiet street.

Overall stay was Ok. Amenities on the 1st floor were good. But the same cannot be said about the 2nd & 3rd floor. Locks on bathroom & bedrooms did not work. Some of the power outlets did not work. Air conditioning was not available in all rooms. A memorable experience with the creaky floors and stairs.

This big house offered plenty of space for my travel team of competitive nerf players to sleep, dine and chill out before and after our big event! It was easy to find and well-located near dining and shopping options. The kitchen is great for cooking, with everything you need, and then some! The bathrooms are outstanding--clean and modern (and enough for everyone). The room arrangements enabled us to all be comfortable. Some of the doors don't fully close because of the age of the floors and doors. It would be nice to have that taken care of, but it's an older home with modern updates. It's in a great neighborhood, and we enjoyed walking around the block and to a nearby park as well. The driveway is a bit tricky to back out of. It may be worth paying for the town's on-street parking pass if you're not confident backing your vehicle. I'd love to have a dining table large enough to accommodate most of the people who can sleep there--seating for 4 isn't ideal, though there's also a breakfast bar in the kitchen. I was bummed that the chilly weather meant we couldn't enjoy the beautiful deck at the back! We did appreciate the basement workout space though. This is a great property for a large group, and if we have another event in the area, we're likely to come back! Thanks to the hosts for answering my questions and helping us have a great stay!

About the host

Hosted by Gwenevere Motley

Host profile image

I'm a proud Montclair resident with a passion for creating memorable experiences. I've always had a love for adventure and creativity. In my spare time I enjoy traveling to new places, hitting the golf course for a relaxing round, and spending time on the water boating. I'm also an avid crafter and find joy in crocheting unique pieces you might find around the house. Above all I treasure quality time with my family, as they are the heart of everything I do.
Hosting is something I'm deeply passionate about because it allows to share my home and community with others. It's incredibly rewarding to see people enjoy my property and the charm of Montclair as much as I do. I believe a great stay starts with thoughtful details and genuine care, and I look forward to welcoming you to my home!
