This place was lovely and perfect for our stay in town for a wedding. My son enjoyed exploring the area around the house and taking in the beauty of nature. It was clean, and stocked nicely. It wasn’t too far to the venue for the wedding and we enjoyed the peace and quiet.

We loved the isolation of the house but it was a little further from St Francisville than what was advertised. The closet in the king bedroom was filled with junk and not very presentable for a VRBO property. All in all it was a great property for the price. Loved the porch and deck!

Our stay at Melody house was not quite what we were expecting. It is neglected and in need of maintenance. I cannot recommend this rental at all and is not good value for money.

This home was beautiful and well-appointed! The back patio with bridge was amazing. Perfect for a peaceful morning coffee before the day’s events. The home is spacious and accommodating for a family trip. If you need more space, you can combine it with the Harmony House with the connecting bridge if it is available. We will stay here whenever possible if we are in the area.

Perfect Weekend Getaway

This cabin stay was exactly what we needed. The cabin itself is absolutely beautiful and very relaxing. We loved sitting outside and just taking in nature. There was also plenty to do in St. Francisville during the day. We had a wonderful time and we will be back!
