Great Location
We were so lucky to have found Sojourner’s Roost last minute for Graduation weekend. Not only was it close to the stadium, but to everything. The house was clean with a large fenced yard. Perfect for our pups. Love the amenities in the basement and board games. Wasn’t able to do a s’mores night, but such a great touch to have all the ingredients. Place was clean, with lots of new supplies. Thanks, Samantha!
