    Such an adorable venue! Everything was clean and welcoming when we arrived. I kept imagining what it would have been like to live there in the time period it was built. The hosts kept the charm intact. We did not know the upstairs was a separate unit that is also rentable as well. As expected for such an old home, the floors upstairs were creaky, but nothing terrible. I would love to book this annually for a visit with friends.

    Cute little place; clean and tidy. Owner had great communication. Easy street/driveway parking (we had 2 trucks pulling trailers). The owner was very gracious in working out an arrangment with us when our original stay had to be cancelled last miniute because of a car issue en route. I think the kitchen could have been a bit better stocked with cooking utensils & dish cleanup; but I know many people don't cook when they stay overnight. Overall, it was a good experience!

    This review a bit late as stayed in late May. This property was beautiful, well maintained and nice touches provided from coffee, snacks and even fresh eggs. We stayed for 3 nights and location was great for us as close to downtown Hays and close to the university where my son goes. Of course nothing too far in Hays! LOL!

    The property was easy to locate, very near downtown Hays. The house was clean and cozy, very well stocked with anyone's necessities. Would certainly stay there again.

    My friend and I had a few days off at the same time, which is rare. This property was perfect for a quick getaway to shop and eat our way through downtown Hays. Very warm and inviting and even though it was on a busy street the sound machines in both bedrooms had us sleeping like babies. Everything we would need was available and even things we hadn’t thought of were there.
