    This house is the perfect location to walk to the square! It’s on a very nice, quiet street. It’s decorated so cute & Aaron was an excellent host. The few questions we had were answered so quickly and he was so accommodating. We loved the rocking chairs on the front porch too. Overall, great experience!
