    We rented this house for a week for the whole family - my wife and four kids. The house was clean and has lots of charm. It's about a 10-minute walk to the grocery store and to all of the shopping and other activities in town. We made this walk daily and it was no big deal. Although we ate out a lot, we did cook in a couple of nights, including using the outdoor grill. Everything was really easy. We love the house and would stay again!

    Location was key when finding a home and this did not disappoint. Short walk to town. Spacious, clean, owners were extremely responsive. Will def book this home again if they’ll have us! Thank you!

    We came for the winter stroll. The house is a great location, easy walk into town. Clean, and the beds were very comfy. Plenty of common spaces to hang out, host was easy to access and helpful.

    We had a great time staying at Amelia’s place. It was clean, comfortable and well-decorated. We loved being able to walk into town every morning. Having the parking spot was a plus for us too.
