When you're not out and about, take a load off on the screened porch or stretch out for some leisurely outdoor living in the large, fully fenced-in backyard.

Have stayed in this home several times - really enjoyed it. We did not have a dog this time but when we did, the back yard was perfect. Had a problem with the fridge & they had a new replacement the following day. Appreciate the attention to detail.

Bungalow perfection

Home was extremely clean, updated yet keeping the historic charm. Great location as described for shopping, eating and strolling the neighborhood and park. Comfortable furniture, beds and AC. The large fenced yard, outdoor patio and enclosed front poach were great relaxation zones. Highly recommend this home

The house was so nicely appointed! Only thing it missed was a Mr Coffee sort of brewer ( not a Keurig fan). And that’s barely worth mentioning. Will definitely book again!

Liked: Cleanliness
Mostly a good stay. Good beds, good bathrooms and the kitchen was well attended. What missed was one, communication. The property changed over just before we went and we didn't receive proper check in instructions. I'm sure this is going to be better moving forward. No instructions when arriving for wifi or anything else either though but the primary issue was the back yard fence. We booked this due to having dogs but there were so many holes in the fence we couldn't really let them back there without a leash. Again, disappointing due to the fact that we booked it for being "closed in" but it really wasn't. Other than that, good stay. Close to everything we needed and was a good central location.

Beautifully updated

We really liked everything about our stay. The kitchen was fabulous and we cooked all the time. There was one feature that disappointed greatly. I was looking forward to the screened in front porch but instead of screen it was plastic and became unbearably hot so you couldn’t sit out there.

Nice but lacking care

Worth the money but…. Tub doesn’t drain, No covers for beds other than a bedspread and the yard needs some TLC.
