Perfect

This is the third time we have stayed here and we love it! The house has everything we need. It is close enough to Main Street that you can walk there in a few minutes. We have already booked it for Spring. See you then. Fred and Teresa (And Martina - Service Dog)

The layout was great for my family, and the proximity to downtown was incredible. As other people have mentioned, one of the bedrooms is right off a main street so it can get loud, but they did provide a white noise machine to help block it out while sleeping. I will say that the wifi was not great and connection was spotty.

Great location & very comfortable stay!

Our stay was great! From previous feedback from others, we were prepared for the busy street so it didn’t bother us at all! The location was great!! It would be nice to have at least 1 smart TV in the house. We would definitely stay here again!

Great place

We've stayed here a few times and have always had a great time. The location is great, and the off the street parking is a plus. We'll book here again.

Great!

We really enjoy staying here. This is the second time we have stayed here and we love it. The house is very spacious and has everything we need. The location is only a few blocks off Main Street so it is only a 5 minute walk. We have already reserved it for November.
