It was wonderfully updated. So cosy, and the backyard was an oasis. We loved the little house and would stay again. There are only 2 things needed, a shade on the front door for privacy, and a non skid mat to use in the shower I almost fell twice.

Pigeon House is a Great Location

Great, walkable location! Cute, clean, updated home. We were able to walk to restaurants and sites we came for. I even recognized a couple of the homes Erin & Ben renovated on the same street. The Host had great recommendations. Highly recommend.

Staying at The Pigeon House in Laurel was one of the highlights of our trip. From the moment we walked in, we were impressed by how well-designed and inviting the space felt. The décor strikes a perfect balance between charming and modern, and the house was spotlessly clean — you could tell the owner cares about every detail.We particularly appreciated how functional the layout was. Even though it’s a cozy space, everything felt spacious and comfortable. Cooking in the kitchen was a breeze because it was stocked thoughtfully, and the seating areas were great for unwinding after a day of exploring.The location couldn’t be better if you want to experience Laurel’s historic charm. We enjoyed wandering around the neighborhood and popping into the nearby shops and cafés every day. It’s close enough to town that you can easily walk, but tucked away enough that the evenings were quiet and restful.Communication with the host was excellent. They provided clear instructions - no stress Overall, The Pigeon House is the perfect base for discovering Laurel. Comfortable, convenient, and well cared for — we’d happily book it again on our next visit.

We just totally fell in love with The Pigeon House. It’s on a beautiful, historic, and quiet street. Upon entering the house, it was immaculately clean. It is tastefully decorated! Just a gorgeous house! It had everything you needed if you wanted to cook a meal. It’s stocked with all essentials. Our hosts were just a text away if we needed anything. Thanks for allowing us to stay in this beautiful house.

Perfect Home Away From Home

This place was perfect in every way. The furniture in the living area was very practical and quite comfortable. The bed was a king which is necessary for us and the kitchen had everything you could possibly need. It was the perfect home away from home for us. We will be back!

This house was exceptional. For a small(er) house, it feels expansive. The living room and kitchen are large and not cluttered by excessive furniture. The bathroom was similarly large with a long countertop, multi-head shower and washer/dryer behind closet doors. We look forward to returning.

Perfect location for fans of Hometown

Although not a Ben & Erin remodel, this property is in the heart of the area where a lot of their remodels have been done. This property feels new & old at the same time with lots of shiplap. You will feel like you are staying on set of a Magnolia/HGTV show. Just make sure you walk the neighborhood, dine in downtown, and enjoy Laurel's hospitality.

The Pigeon House was GREAT!!!!!

The Pigeon House was a great place for me to relax and let go of the stress of the world. It was the right size for one person - far better than a hotel room! The fully furnished kitchen allowed me to cook or warm up leftovers. I felt at home mainly because I felt safe. All questions I had were answered via text or phone call. The owner takes good care of the property. I will definitely return to "my get away".
