This location is so close the shops and restaurants of The Hill. Very easy to walk to everything. The whole house was very clean and updated. Off street parking was very much appreciated as this is such a busy area and street parking isn't always available. Even the activities we were interested in were all within a 15 minute drive of our location.

We stayed here for 4 nights over spring break and this was the perfect place to come back to after a full day out and about. Our kids enjoyed the park across the street and walking through the neighborhood to the nearby coffee shop. We felt safe walking around and going to the park. The house was clean and had everything we needed and everything we didn’t realize we’d need! We will stay here again if we come back for a vacation!

We have stayed here many times - it is the best and our dogs now think it is their home away from home. They can't wait to walk the neighborhood & hang out on front porch or back patio. The location is the best, as is the house, kitchen. You can cook or simply reheat delicious food from the Hill. It is a great house to relax in if you need a rest from your travels. Can't wait to stay her again. Thanks for sharing!
