If there were 6 stars we would assign this experience a "once in a lifetime, beyond belief" rating. The owners were amazing to work with, left us to ourselves but made themselves available to us if we needed it (for example, when we couldn't find the corkscrew!). They even swept the snow off our car in the mornings! The house is out of a dream magazine-it is lovely, the decor is stunning, the location is excellent. Yet it feels like a home, albeit a well appointed one. We felt very relaxed and comfortable there. The bedding is luxuriant, the TV tucked away upstairs in a spare room. We stayed over Christmas and had everything to cook a Turkey dinner, which is pretty amazing when you consider the dishes, pans, utensils, etc. For 2 or 4 people this is an excellent choice. The location is fantastic, right behind the downtown street facing the beautiful library. The little garden in the back is tucked away and private. And the best part of all is the house itself. It is victorian but completely renovated tastefully and in keeping with the best character of an old house. This is an excellent choice for your vacation!Recommended for: Sightseeing, tourists without a car, girls getaway, romantic getaway, age 55+, families with teenagers.

My husband and I stayed at The Verandah for a week. Without hesitation, I can say this was THE BEST VRBO we have ever stayed in. Debra and Denis have done an amazing job with this home. We felt welcome, comfortable, and, at the end of our week, we didn't want to go! They have gone out of their way to provide the best of everything. The kitchen is stocked. The linens are cozy and numerous. It is CLEAN! My husband had to work while we were there and he loved the desk set-up along with access to high-speed internet through a wi-fi connection. This place is as inspiring as the rest of Stratford. While there, the shutterbug in me went crazy taking photos of the surrounding garden and I was able to get writing done for a book I am working on. It is truly a sanctuary. With all the lovely art and knick knacks, it will take you a week to absorb how much love and care has gone into this home. Even without stopping to look at all the special touches, it is easy to *feel* it because it surrounds you and makes you feel blessed. Truly a special place. Now, add to all of that the fact that this VRBO is within walking distance of pretty much every theater, restaurant, and attraction in Stratford--it just doesn't get any better. We were sad to leave, heartbroken, really, and are already planning our next trip there.Recommended for: Sightseeing, tourists without a car, girls getaway, romantic getaway, age 55+, families with teenagers.
