Perfect city getaway

Came out this way to do a weekend of hiking and relaxing outside of the city and this place didn’t disappoint. Super clean, updated, and most importantly comfortable! The area is incredible and includes a lot to do right outside the door to this place. Would come back for ice cream and coffee and Bruce and Ollie’s and a beer at Ginger Road any day!

Wonderful weekend

Came to Utica for the Wine Walk. The location was perfect. The suite was clean and had everything we needed for a short stay. Communication with the owner was great. We enjoyed staying over the shop, which had great coffee and tasty food. The staff were helpful and very friendly. Will definitely come back.

Perfect location

Slight hiccup with checkin but owner really responsive so worked out fine. Loft is beautiful, clean, well stocked and perfectly located for hiking. The shop downstairs is great and everyone is super friendly. The street outside is basically a beer tent so keep in mind it's probably kinda loud on weekends. Besides the weather, our only disappointment was how many shops only had wknd hours.

Perfect Weekend Getaway

The property was completely as pictured if not better. The property owner was fabulous. From the big to the small, they thought of everything when putting the property together. The location was great. Right in the downtown with access to food, drinks and live entertainment. Things shut down around 9:00 so no noise issues. Highly recommend!

Just Beautiful!!

What a beautifully renovated and historic place to stay for a quick girls getaway! Everything was very clean, comfortable, and instructions were clear and simple. The pull out couch was a little uncomfortable to sleep on, but I think that’s par for pull out couches lol. We would 100% stay again! Thank you!
