    The location was PERFECT. The unit was extremely clean, light, and well stocked. The host was most gracious with her recommendations for restaurants and sites to visit. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay.

    We’ve stayed here twice and loved it both times. Within a few minutes walking to two beautiful riverside parks, excellent restaurants, galleries and the fun Smith Hardware museum. Comfy beds, huge showers.

    The property was charming, clean and very comfortable. It was everything as described. The communication with the owners was great and very helpful in acclimating to Covington with suggestions for restaurants and things to do. We loved being able to walk to so many places, the location was perfect. The showers were huge and and a perfect upgraded detail to the charm of this property. We definately would book it again!

    Very nice that everything was provided. Coffee Pot and Keurig, dishes, pots, pans, condiments so much more. Suggest they put a shade in the bedroom window with the king bed because in the morning you get all the light coming in. Bathrooms were awesome. Definitely not good for anyone having difficulty walking upstairs. Loved it but wish there was an oudoor area to sit and relax.

    The cutest little rental we’ve ever stay at! Julie is a real host! We loved this place and will certainly be returning! We were surprised with Spark in the Park and a firework show steps from the rental!

    The property was very clean, and had plenty of room for our group of 6. Communication with Jules was always easy and open. We had such a great time, we wish we never had to leave!

    The apartment has been renovated very stylishly, while at the same time is very homey and comfortable. The beds were comfy, the shower luxurious, and the HVAC system operated flawlessly — must be a new system in a very quaint cottage. The location was superb too. Our host was gracious and helpful. We would stay here again.

    I absolutely loved my two week stay! The apartment had so much charm, and the renovation had all of the modern conveniences while keeping the character of this lovely home. The showers were fantastic and the beds were very comfortable.Julie and her husband were wonderful hosts; easy to contact and very flexible when weather impacted my arrival and departure. There are so many cute shops and restaurants within walking distance. I loved the independent bookstore on Lee Lane and Coffee Rani and New Orleans Seafood and Spirits were my favorites for lunch and dinner. It was fun to walk down to the river and enjoy the view. Spring was a lovely time to visit, and I hope to return again next year!
