Personally we chose to stay here because it was more affordable than NYC and getting transportation to NYC was fairly easy. Very nice apt. with plenty of room. It was also very nice of Rick to show us around when we first got there. A huge thank you! We really enjoyed staying here.

Thank you so much Suzann for making us feel at home and so welcome and Wayne for the rides to Journal Square PATH station. Your insights and advice made our trip even that much more enjoyable. You were right about the great burgers and friendly Irish atmosphere at the Park Tavern. What a gem. The apartment in your Brownstone was very comfortable and spacious. We hope to come and visit again in the spring.

Sue and Wayne, what can we say we so enjoyed our stay at your place for my first time being in New York we loved your place. It was close to everything and it was nice getting to know the taxi driver we had to take us to the path and other places. You and Wayne were awesome in telling us places to get to and to see we are hoping to stay there again. I fell in love with New York. Thanks Again Lisa and Lori

Thanks to the smiling and ever so gracious hosts Suzanne and Wayne for our stay in there home. The place is perfect for two couples or a small family. The house is beautiful and the beds so comfortable. We took a cab to the Path train station to take the train to NYC which was so convenient and affordable just 5 minutes away.The house had a dog by the name of Cozy Bear who was adorable. Thanks again for the bottle of wine. Loved the stay.

This is a gorgeous property, beautifully appointed, and the owner is SO nice! The pictures don't do justice to the high ceilings, marble fireplaces, vintage furniture, antiques, and art in this rental. It's a very large space and the owners provided not only clean linens, towels, and bathrobes, but a vase of carnation sprigs, a bottle of wine, and lovely local sweets. In addition, the owner drove my husband to the Journal Square PATH to catch his train into Manhattan! Although this property isn't recommended for kids, we had no problem bringing our well-behaved infant. I can't give enough praise to this charming rental and the friendly owners.
