Daughter and USWNT vs China visit
Loved my stay. It was quiet and restful. The bed was super comfortable. the entire place was clean. Easy walk to grocery store. Owners were on site (upstairs). Nice to know they are there but not overbearing. Had a great weekend visiting my daughter.
The home is in a beautiful neighborhood with many trees and lovely landscaping. The yard has seating and bean bags for a relaxing outdoor experience! The interior was furnished with items appropriate for a historic home. The decorating was tasteful and included artwork for sale by local artists! The owners were friendly and welcoming.
We loved our time in this beautiful home. Everything was clean, cozy, and as described. We were within walking distance of restaurants, parks, St Paul's Cathedral, and a market. The front porch was perfect for sitting and having our morning coffee while admiring the fall leaves. The sweet owners left an activity book for our 9-year-old, which was a lovely touch! It's a charmer and we will be back.
