Burlington, Vermont
Welcome to the Carriage House on Caroline street in Burlington's charming and historic South End Lower Hill Section. We are ideally located on a quiet residential street, walking distance to Church Street Marketplace, Burlington Waterfront, local beaches, bike path, and so much more. Park at the end of our street with tennis, two playgrounds, soccer, and baseball fields. Excellent for dog walking and frisbee.
I came here to spend Christmas with my daughter and we had a wonderful. The space is beautifully renovated with plenty of room and a nice kitchen to make Christmas dinner. The location is great - close to downtown and right near some athletic parks where the dogs enjoyed playing. We hope to come back.
It went well until the end. The owner was very aggressive with me after I checked out. Had not conversed with them prior. She accused me of having more guests than allowed. Able to sleep 3. Not true. My son and I stayed. My daughter lives around the corner and she came by to see the space. She was angry about my dogs despite listing saying the place was dog friendly. I apologized for my oversight not checking the boxes upon rental to say how many people and presence of dogs. Told her if she needed to charge me for extra person and dogs to do so. Complained about use of 3 sets is sheets. Explained I took off sheets on pull out and used another set bc the original set did not look fresh. Anyway she txtd me and told me she never wanted to have me rent again. Quote “ don’t come back”. Unfortunate - I have never had any interaction like this prior and hope I never do again. I’m 58 and just wanted to visit my daughter for her bday. Woman said she just started renting I think she doesn’t have the temperament for this. No hard feelings just bummed bc it was reasonable and close to my daughter. I think these rental places should not be allowed to charge for extra person if the amount of people do not exceed number place can sleep. But that is just my opinion. Feel bad how it went.
Carriage House was the best location! The neighborhood was so beautiful. We easily and safely walked to the Marketplace and Island Line Trail. The house itself had every amenity you could possibly need. The property manager made our stay very comfortable. Once again we leave Burlington loving the people and the city more than before! Can't wait to come back!
The owner thought we were coming the next when we showed up, the outside of the apartment needed some up keep there was a window air conditioner for the apartment
We will be back!
There was a mix up during check in. We understood that it was resoved with the landlord (we actually got an email stating that). The following evening we returned after dinner and realized that all our private things had been moved from our appartment to another one without our consent. We left immediately and went into a hotel. Draw your own conclusions.
Quiet street and walking distance from all we needed. Accurate listing.
The carriage house was perfect for me. I had everything I needed and it is very charming. Location is on a nice quiet street with a park at the end, in very easy walking distance. My dog loved it! The whole South End area is very walkable and has lots to offer - lakefront, lots of good food, coffee shops, etc. Dori was a great hostess - gave me my privacy but was always responsive if something came up. Highly recommend!
I could not have had a smoother, more pleasant, or stress,-free stay. Dori was a wonderful host who was easy to get a hold of, did everything she could to make my stay perfect, and continuously went above and beyond what I would expect from a host. The unit I stayed in was clean, comfy, and had everything I needed for a month-long trip. The location was also fantastic and even in the cold of February, I enjoyed walking around the neighborhood to all of the nearby places I could explore. I look forward to coming back and staying here again.
We stayed for 12 nights in early August 2019. The house was exactly as described and was clean and had everything we could have needed or wanted. The location is fantastic in a nice neighborhood of quiet homes, right down the block from a huge park, but on a street that dead ends on both ends, so virtually no through traffic. Everything was clean, neat, and homey. We were really comfortable and have nothing but good things to say. And Dori is fantastic!! I was really amazed at her responsiveness while making the reservation and with a few questions we had between the time we reserved and our trip. I don't think it ever took more than an hour to hear back from her. And during our stay, she was helpful and attentive, but it never felt like she was intruding. Really, the perfect balance!! I guess the best measure of any place is would you go there again? and the answer to that is a definite YES! I hope this review doesn't make the price go up or make the place so popular that we can't get it the next time we want to go back to Vermont!! LOL
