HISTORIC MANSION, DOWNTOWN, WALKABLE, COLONIAL REVIVAL

This is a beautiful old property in a very special lot conveniently situated above the main street of Stillwater and with a lovely view of the river. There are plenty of bedrooms and baths although a bit quirky for a group of adults. The third floor was magical for children. We loved being there. Would ask for another full length mirror or two for hosting wedding parties etc.

Understandably a historical property will have quirks, however this place needs a ton of renovations. Prior to arrival bathroom flooded and kitchen ceiling was damaged leaving house smelling. Added to this fireplace really smelled and combined with moldy smell was not pleasant. For the price you would expect updated furniture, fresh paint and overall attention to decor and cleanliness. Exterior of house is in very bad shape and nothing like the listing picture with peeling paint and missing steps, etc. Grounds were not maintained. Weeds everywhere. No landscaping at property other than lawn and weeds. But if traveling with children it was a great place for them to do what kids do. Would also work for bachelor party. Property manager was quick to respond, which was nice but unfortunately property really needs a total overhaul.

Loved our time here for a family event.

Beautiful property

Stayed here for a long weekend celebrating a family wedding. Great location and an awesome view of the river. Lots of bedrooms and bathrooms was appreciated for the large group. Great outdoor patio and huge backyard! Ping pong table upstairs was an added bonus.

My group of friends had a wonderful time in this gorgeous, spacious home! We enjoyed being so close to downtown while also having the quiet neighborhood and beautiful river views. More than enough room for everyone to spread out and sleep comfortably!

The house was beautiful.

In a convenient location to downtown Stillwater, this property has enough rooms to accommodate large groups (we were a party of 16), and many amenities for entertaining (fully equipped kitchen, dining space and large living room). Some of the aesthetics of the house need addressing. For example, the 3rd floor bedroom/den had an entirely exposed wall where a bathroom was being installed, and the locks to at least two of the doors leading to the outside were broken (one in the living room, and one on the breezeway into the kitchen). Most concerning, however, were the stone steps leading from the driveway up to the house, which were broken and crumbling. Our group included one woman in her 70s and another who was very pregnant, and these stairs were a huge hazard, especially in the evening when it was dark. For a business that is trying to make a good first impression with its property, this was a disappointment.The house has great potential, and I’m sure once these issues are addressed it will be a 5 star property. We wish we had been alerted to them prior to check-in.

Absolutely beautiful home and the perfect place to host my son's wedding-party guests. I would have given 5 stars for the accuracy of the online listing if I had known about the in-progress updating of the third-level loft and the difficulty of navigating the outside stone steps from the back porch to the driveway for my elderly parents. I whole-heartedly recommend this place for anyone who does does have walking impairments.

The house was spectacular. We had everything we needed for our group and more. Everything was clean and up to date. Would recommend to anyone. Right in the heart of Stillwater where it’s a short walk to downtown.

This home was perfect for our family.

I booked this house for the groom’s family to all stay together- there were 12 of them. I toured the house before their arrival. I wish I could have stayed there myself! They raved about the house and how perfect everything was. It was a beautiful weekend in Stillwater and this mansion on the hill is so conveniently located with excellent views . Very happy with the rental

The Durant House was the perfect spot for home base for our daughter’s wedding! Brian was easy to communicate with and understood we were busy with wedding festivities so was patient when things came up, like cars parked on the wrong side of the street. :) The house has plenty of bedrooms and bathrooms so we never felt crowded. Would highly recommend! It’s a beautiful historic home and the location is perfect to enjoy the fun in Stillwater.
