It was the perfect location for our visit. Carol communicated professionally and quickly.Wishes - It would be convenient to have closets in the upstairs bedrooms; updated pots and pans, an extra kitchen towel and sponge, fresh paint on a lot of the white baseboards (especially upstairs bathroom), and some sprucing up of the basement,Concern - the first handle rail on the right side going down the basement stairs is broken.

Weekend stay for basketball tournament

Nice home in a nice location in Fort Wayne. Close to downtown and the various locations we had to go to for basketball. Neighborhood seems safe and well maintained. Close to restaurants and the local park. Very happy with our host, and she was flexible with our checkout due to our tournament times.

Our go-to place to stay in Fort Wayne

This was our second time staying for multiple nights at this lovely property. Everything was very clean and the beds were very comfortable. The decor was very nice and it was the perfect place for our party of 4 adults to stay while visiting family. Really enjoyed the beautiful rose garden at the park a couple blocks away. Host was very easy to work with. Would stay here again!

Extra space needed for family

We had a family celebration and needed extra space for our crew. Carol’s home is very clean, comfortable, quiet and close to downtown. Our guests loved walking over to Lakeside park to see the gorgeous rose gardens. Beds are comfortable. Carol is very responsive and easy to work with. Thank you Carol!

About the host

Hosted by Carol G

Host profile image
Thank you for taking the time to get to know a bit about me and my family! We are a family of 4 from the Midwest. When we decided to venture into hosting, we decided to start small and local, in our home city of Fort Wayne. We love hosting and meeting guests so much that we expanded to Bradenton. Our love of beach and tennis brought us this "second home city". The laid-back atmosphere makes it a great place for our family to get some needed R&R, away from work and school. We are a tennis family and IMG offers great camps during the holidays, spring break, and all summer long. We love to lounge on the hammock and float in the pool after a day of fun at the beach or sweating it out on the tennis court. Recently, our love for Notre Dame lead us to invest in a property in South Bend, where we hope to have the opportunity to host ND families from all over the world. We take pride in taking great care of our properties and set high standards for ourselves and our team members. Our #1 goal is that our guests have a relaxing, stress-free stay and enjoy our homes to the fullest!

Why they chose this property

Our location is perfect for travel nurses as we are walking distance to Parkview Randallia Hospital. Our location is also perfect for traveling professionals as we are near Downtown and offer 1 G WIFI. We have a long private driveway that easily park 2-3 cars. On snowy days, our guests have the option to park inside our garage! In the summer, guests with children can walk to Lakeside Park which is literally in our back yard, 5 minutes away. We provide travel crib and high chair at the property. Our large deck offers seating and a propane grill.
