The facilities were amazing and a perfect fit for our family Thanksgiving celebration. The kitchen allowed for multiple work stations, and the dining area was adjusted to fit 22 for dinner. Everyone enjoyed the entertainment area on the second floor. The beds were extremely comfortable, and the whole place was very stylishly furnished and decorated. Deon was very helpful and quick to respond to any inquiries.

We had an absolutely wonderful time staying at Lizzie’s Lofts! We had a group of friends and our families stay at this property and it couldn’t have been more perfect of a place for our large group! Way better than staying in a hotel! The host was very welcoming and easy to communicate with, answered all my questions beforehand and during our stay. The check in and check out process was smooth! The location was super convenient to walk anywhere downtown, which was so nice we didn’t have to drive anywhere our entire stay! This location was also easy to get onto the bike trail. The property was spotless! Everyone in our group commented on how clean it was! The entire place is super cute and decked out with neat decor! Beds were very comfortable as well! The game room was a hit for our group! We all loved how many options we had! This kept us entertained for hours! I highly recommend this place if you’re looking for a place that has it all!! Truly a gem! ;)
