Our family of five really enjoyed our stay here! The location was safe and very walkable to restaurants, groceries, Forest Park, and coffee shops. The house was clean though the plug in air freshener was too strong and we needed to unplug it and air out the home. Some noise from renters above especially in evenings and early mornings, but overall we had a great stay.

Thanks for the great review — we're glad your family enjoyed the location and walkability. Sorry the plug‑in air freshener was too strong; we’ve removed it and instructed housekeeping to avoid strong scents and to air the home before arrivals. I’m also sorry about noise from renters above — we’ll remind future guests about quiet hours and explore extra sound‑dampening options. Appreciate the feedback and hope to host you again. — Home Team Vacation Rentals

First off, great neighborhood - so safe! Walking distance to great CWE restaurants and whole foods. House is outstanding - great decor and eye level lighting. Comfy beds and linens. Back yard is lovely - not exactly as pictured with the grass but nice ivy ground cover. Such an efficient use of space with the three bedrooms and two full baths. AND love that it’s all one level and not lugging suitcases upstairs. Perfect backyard for dogs as well. We will be back for sure.

Thanks so much for the wonderful review! So glad you enjoyed the safe neighborhood, walkability to CWE restaurants and Whole Foods, and the home's layout and lighting. Happy the beds and linens were comfy and that the single-level setup and dog-friendly backyard worked well for your group. Appreciate the note about the ivy ground cover — we’ll make sure the listing/photos reflect that more clearly and will pass your compliments on to our team. Hope to welcome you back soon!

It was a great stay, place was implacably clean when we got there. Kids loved it so much they said we should buy it. Lol. There was enough towels and linen and pillows. The Full-size bunk beds were perfect. Perfect stay. *Only compliant we had was out of your control. The upstairs tenant keep smoking weed a lot. So sometimes we could smell inside, faintly but it was noticeable for our kid to smell it.

Thanks for the review — glad you had a great stay and that everything was so clean. Love that the kids enjoyed it (and the bunk beds) — that comment made us smile. I’m sorry about the smoke smell from the upstairs tenant; that’s frustrating, especially with kids. We take that seriously and will follow up with building management and remind neighbors about our no-smoking expectations. Appreciate the feedback and thanks for staying with us!

I often stay in rental properties when traveling, and this property is top notch! Everything exceeded our expectations. It was quiet and cozy while still offering plenty to do nearby. We loved walking to pick up groceries at Whole Foods or to grab coffee or dinner in CWE. The only note I have is that parking can be tough to find if you get home late. I wish I had known sooner as I would have planned ahead.

Thanks, Guest! Really happy the place exceeded expectations — quiet and cozy and great that the CWE/Whole Foods location worked so well for you. Thanks for the parking heads-up; street spots can be tight late, and we’ll add clearer tips to the listing so future guests can plan ahead. Hope to host you again next time you’re in town. — Jeff & Bridget

Perfect location, felt very safe in area, if weather would have cooperated we would have enjoyed the back yard more. Love the coziness and lighting Friday March 6 was a beautiful day enjoyed the swing and front porch with wine and cheese happy hour. Would recommend your home to friends who need a place close to Barnes without any reservations! Perfect 10! The host was wonderful!

Everything was great about this property. Having stayed in many Vrbo's, this property easily rates in the top 1%. The Rooms were comfortable and Bathrooms clean. The spice rack was well equipped and the air fryer was a nice touch. While there was a great coffee bar, I am a Keurig guy and that would be a nice addition. I highly recommend this property and will be booking with them again.

Everything was lovely from the second we pulled up to the moment we checked out. The porch light was on and the address was easy to read as arrived late at night. The property was very pet friendly. We spend a lot of time on the front porch. We walked to the Basilica and a coffee shop. Location was key for our stay and this location in the central west end was perfect! The kitchen was fully stocked with enough dishes for our large family. We appreciated the full sized washer and dryer. It was quiet and warm and comfortable. The property is beautifully updated. They have thought of all the things: charges by the beds, lamps in the right spots, ample toilet paper/towels & soap. The host checked in multiple times to see how things were going or if we needed anything. Lovely hosts.
