    Our group of seven adults loved this property! The host was very attentive and informative. Check in/check out were easy. The house is situated over three floors. The downstairs is one of the most amazing entertaining spaces I've ever seen. Any type of hosting could easily be accommodated in this space: large, well-stocked, and highly functional kitchen (like, enviable, wow) - we used the coffee maker daily (it's a Ninja, can brew a pot or bring pods), the microwave, and the fridge and ice machine. There is plenty of space for everyone to sit, and the adjoining lounge area makes breakfast and late-night snacking social and relaxing. There are several dining areas aside from that, but we didn't use those spaces (we did ogle them, though). The bedrooms are gorgeous and well-appointed. There are four rooms on the second floor, these can accommodate 9 adults (especially if there are couples or those who are okay sharing beds). The beds were incredibly comfortable. There are three bathrooms on the second floor (all with showers/tubs). The only knock was if more than one person was showering, the water pressure was low and even with the tankless water heater, the last person showering didn't necessarily get the hottest shower. This was minor and did not detract from our stay at all. The pool and surroundings were lovely, and the outdoor seating near the home was spacious and comfortable. All in all we thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would absolutely stay there again.

    Pulling five families together for an event is not easy! But Ashley‘s property was the perfect landing spot for everyone —plenty of games and entertainment for the kids and relaxing spaces for adults. There is a fantastic fully stocked kitchen for cooking for lots of people plus a grill and a lovely pool. The house is as pictured and absolutely lovely as are the grounds. it could not have been a better weekend in Lafayette. We meant to take a group picture, but we were having too much fun and forgot!

    We had an unforgettable stay at this stunning historic home and cottage! From the moment we arrived, we were captivated by the beautifully maintained grounds—lush, peaceful, and full of character. The home itself is a perfect blend of old-world charm and modern convenience. Thoughtfully restored and impeccably appointed, every detail felt curated for comfort.The pool was the highlight of our trip—crystal clear, inviting, and surrounded by serene landscaping that made it feel like a private oasis. Whether we were lounging poolside, enjoying a quiet morning coffee on the porch, or exploring the nearby attractions, everything about our stay was seamless and relaxing.This is truly a special place—ideal for a peaceful getaway or a family vacation with a touch of elegance. Highly recommend!

    It was a fabulous experience. My sister and used both the cottage and house for our adult children to attend a family wedding. There was no detail the owner did not think of. It made for a perfect weekend. I would highly recommend it to anyone.
