"Great home. Within walking distance to a great Italian place and brewery as well as ice cream shops and coffee. It's an older home in a historic district, but it has been beautifully renovated. Hot tub was great for the kids."

"Our stay was idyllic. We could walk 5 minutes to an amazing restaurant with the best GF pizza, or a neighborhood grocery. Fresh pomelos and lemons for juice from the property trees. Hosts responded helpfully by text and delivered what we needed right away. Quiet neighborhood — a perfect getaway."

"This house was in the perfect location — it's registered as historic and is GORGEOUS! The backyard has a patio and grassy area with a hot tub. Our kids played in the backyard most days, and there are restaurants within walking distance. This stay was a great vacay home we hope to book again!"
Jerri — Sacramento, CA
"It was my favorite among the accommodations I've stayed at. It's clean and I felt the meticulous care everywhere. I was especially impressed by the efforts of the hosting team who arranged for me to have a monitor when I needed one. The location was so good that my parents in law who traveled with me complimented it. The backyard was also pretty, and my family enjoyed every part of the house, we were able to heal ourself inside the house. Thank you so much! We really enjoyed your house."
Veronica — Ashburn, VA

"We had a great time! Home was clean and beds were comfortable. Every day we used and enjoyed the backyard and the front porch. Walking to Stella Jean for ice cream happened every night. The planes were right over head but we adjusted and it seemed like white noise. We would stay here again!"
