This place was great. A restored old home with tons of character. The kitchen was nice and roomy and had all that we needed. And we really appreciated the bubbly that was left for us for our anniversary. It was a very enjoyable stay.

We had a wonderful stay at this large historic home while in town for our son’s wedding. The home’s retained beauty and architecture made a perfect backdrop for the bride and her attendants’ photos. Walking distance to so many things was very nice. Great communication with the host as well.

Wonderful updated property! We were the 2nd guests to stay. A few minor issues: the microwave didn’t work nor did the water hook up to the refrigerator. Alex the property manager was wonderful to work with and took care of our needs and delivered a bag of ice. I’m sure the repairs were made quickly after our check out. We would definitely stay here again!
