Second time staying at Chris’ place and it was amazing! Well stocked, very clean, in a great area. Would definitely recommend others staying here, and will be doing so myself next year!
We had a wonderful stay! This beautiful home is close to downtown. It was very clean and well maintained! We will definitely consider this property when we return to the area!
We stayed here a month and it was very convenient while we visited family in the area. Very walkable to the downtown with shops and restaurants. It's short drive to groceries in Auburn. We loved it and will book it again.
Beautiful home in an historic Auburn neighborhood. Really appreciated the kindness of cleaning off the overnight snow and checking in every step of the way. Great host and beautiful home.

Thank you for taking the time to share your experience so that future guests know what to expect when they visit. I am so glad that you had a wonderful visit and hope to host you again in the future. Safe travels!
This home was a perfect spot for us when my brother and I and our spouses came to Auburn to visit family for the holidays. The home was very clean and the beds comfortable. Additionally, the kitchen was stocked with everything we needed to prepare and enjoy a meal together. Chris was great at communicating and the check-in/out process was really easy. We would highly recommend this property for anyone’s stay.
