This house was a true gem. Everything about it from the communication with the host to the decor (historical and authentic) was outstanding. It was such a comfortable stay for us on our way to CO; wish we would have been able to enjoy it longer. Honestly, everything about our stay was perfect!

Loved this old parsonage with the modern amenities! Newspaper clippings hanging in the stairwell were very informative of the parsonage history. Even though it was in town, we still felt plenty of privacy. Very pleased with the overall experience.
