    We had an excellent visit at this property! It's cozy, convenient to midtown, and very well stocked with kitchen equipment and games. The kids' sleeping/play area was great for our group of two separate families with small kids, and the common area had plenty of space for everyone. Hosts were very responsive to a minor maintenance issue as well. We're definitely interested in coming back again!

    The neighborhood and location is great. The property needs some love. The carpet is old and dirty in many spots and quite wrinkled in many areas. I slept in the master bedroom and was a little disappointed that only one bar of soap was supplied for the whole bathroom. It could be a super nice place if the owners would invest in some inprovements.

    The location was lovely, and we especially appreciated the charm of the front porch—it was a highlight of our stay. That said, there were a few areas that could use improvement. The coffee station was a thoughtful touch, though it only included filters and was missing coffee and creamer. The home wasn’t fully clean upon arrival, and the furniture felt a bit dated. Unfortunately, the washer left rust stains on a sentimental baby blanket, which was upsetting to say the least. While the backyard didn’t feel very inviting, the surrounding area was quiet and pleasant.With that said this was a last-minute booking and appreciate having had a place to stay. However, given our experience, we’d likely explore other options in the future. Thank you.

    Generally this place was great- they have some board games, a fully stocked kitchen, and room for everyone. I think we just had bad luck. The fridge went out while we were there and we couldn’t get the two bedrooms to the left to be cooled off. One of the rooms the ceiling fan did not work. But- made due with the one fan they had on the property- and the maintenance team was so helpful by bringing a new fridge! I think it was a decent place to stay for the price!

Me and my wife loved it so much we are thinking of buying a house in the area in the future . Overall we had a blast everything from kitchen to games we were able to bound as a family and grow closer to one another. We would definitely come back in the future . It was amazing
