Perfect for our wedding weekend

We rented 3 of Jacci’s properties for our wedding weekend. We were able to fit our whole wedding party in the houses. It was a perfect place to relax and enjoy the town. The houses were clean and beautiful and Jacci was super helpful and accommodating. I would definitely recommend to anyone!

Highly recommend!

10 family and friends stayed at this beautifully decorated home for two nights. We had plenty of sleep options, sat out on the front porch often, visited local wineries and ice cream shops and a cute farmers market, easy walks to check out the lake (or just peek across the street!). The house itself is super cozy and welcoming. And Jacci went above and beyond to make sure we were all set. She knows everything about that area, so we inquired for her advice about restaurants and wineries and shopping more than once :-) Highly recommend

Perfect location for a Girl's Weekend

This home is perfect in every way, from it's location to it's decor and beyond. Jacci was such an amazing host, full of joy and so willing to share ideas on how to make the most of our stay. The home is withing walking distance of many great things! Don't miss out on Ward's sausage breakfast sandwich at the Farmer's Market on Saturday morning. It will ruin you for all other sausage. I also highly recommend the wine tour on the lake with Bianconi Tours. It was an amazing weekend and we can't wait to return.

Wonderful stay!

We had a lovely time staying here! The house was a great size for my family (there were 5 adults and a baby). It was so close to the state park, different wineries/breweries, blueberry picking, and the playground in the back was lovely to have so close for our little one. Jacci was super communicative and made us feel at home. Would love to come back!

About the host

Hosted by Jacci & Virgil

My husband Virgil and I have lived here for over 28 years! We have always loved the quaint and quiet nature of the Village.We do most of the work on the houses ourselves from renovating to cleaning. We love to welcome people to our village and acquaint them with all that is here. In addition to being hosts, I am a photographer and Virgil is an Energy Star rater/consultant.

Why they chose this property

We own 432 and 434 Main Street, right next to each other which makes it easy to maintain. The properties are extremely accessible to everything in the village from weddings to festivals, graduations to reunions. We also manage 428 Main Street, 16 Cherry St and 293 Main Street. We recently have added HeckofaDeck Lake House near Long Point State Park.

What makes this property unique

These turn-of-the-century houses are well built and sturdy and add to the charm of Main Street. They are convenient to shopping and dining, walking and swimming. It's surprising how much there is to do here and how contemplative Aurora can be!
