Beautiful location in the middle of so many other old impressive homes. Great house with everything we needed. Would stay again if the opportunity presents itself.
We had an incredible weekend in Quincy! This house/mansion, was perfect for our group of 6! Great location, spacious, beautiful and fun to stay in one of the historic homes we admired while in college at QU 24 years ago! Thank you for a great stay!
It's a beautiful yet very comfortable home away from home. The neighborhood is lovely and conveniently located with eaay (close) access to all our venues and anything we needed (groceries, pharmacy, restaurants, etc.), The house was a magical place to stay in anticipation of and through our daughter's wonderful Quincy wedding. The host was very responsive and welcoming. Thank you!
Perfect for my parents and sister’s family while they were in Quincy. Well maintained (especially given the age and size), and very comfortable beds and furniture (while still maintaining its historic architectural charm). We will rent again.
Great location. Beautiful house. Great porches. Kitchen includes every kitchen implement imaginable (not just 4 plates, 4 forks, one pot and one big bowl like some properties).
We are very pleased with stay. Home was clean with everything needed for a beautiful weekend with family from Kansas, Wisconsin, Florida & local family. Our granddaughter graduated from Quincy High School so wonderful memories were created.
Appreciated the home that had every thing we needed. I would definitely recommend the home & return if we have the opportunity.

Great neighborhood, beautiful historic home but needs updating badly. Kitchen is big & ok, bedrooms are huge but only 1 had a TV, bathrooms are very dated, the primary bath was clean but dated & the shower was very tiny…could barely turn around.

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We appreciate your compliments on the neighborhood and the beauty of our historic home.
As the home was built in 1910, it retains many of its original features, which we believe add to its unique charm and historical significance. We understand that some aspects may feel dated, and we strive to balance modern comforts with the preservation of its character.
Regarding the TVs, as noted in our listing and shown in the pictures, there is one TV in the living room and one TV available in the master bedroom. We aim to provide clear and accurate information to set the right expectations for our guests.
We acknowledge your comments about the bathrooms and the primary bath’s shower size. Your feedback is valuable, and we will take it into consideration as we plan future updates. However, we believe some of these concerns could have been avoided had the property description been read, considering the age and historic nature of the home.
Thank you again for your review. We hope you had an enjoyable stay overall.
I was born in Quincy, as were my parents and their parents. Six family members came from Seattle and California to visit family and feel lucky to have stayed here. We'd long driven down these blocks, salivating as we looked at the gorgeous homes, so this was heaven. Comfortable beds, very well-stocked kitchen, plenty of outdoor and indoor space if you want time alone, although we also gathered in the spacious kitchen and living room on a rainy day. The walking was great as well, so we put on a lot of miles (which we needed because we got our Quincy pork tenderloin fix.)
Perfect place to stay and to reconnect with friends for our 50th QHS Reunion. Kitchen was very well equipped and made cooking easy. Definitely would consider on my next trip to Quincy.
Neat old mansion. Parts have been renovated; others still need work. It was fun to stay in one of the historic mansions in downtown Quincy, where my husband’s grandmother used to take me driving to see them all from the outside and to view the dogwood trees. What a treat to be able to not only see inside one of them, but to stay in one. Can’t wait to see what it looks like when it is fully restored.
The home is very spacious and has many cool original features. We enjoyed sitting on the back porch and playing pool in the basement. The house was spacious and the kitchen large; providing enough space to spread out. The fresh roses left on the counter and the other special touches were very nice. I would highly recommend this home and we look forward to returning.
