It was a great place to stay. Just enough room for all of us. The outside seating also came in handy. And the air conditioning works great in this historic house.

My family and I had a wonderful time at this adorable little home! The pictures are accurate, and Amelia is very responsive and accommodating! We enjoyed the outside area, and with permission we had a few of my Dad's friends come over for dinner, and everyone had a great time! (Please note that it is located on one of the main streets, so there is a lot of traffic to be cautious of if you have small kids/pets. It was pretty quiet during the night, however. If you are a light sleeper I would bring ear plugs for the occasional loud vehicle.) We would definitely stay again! Thanks!
