Nice home and location.

We had a small problem and the owners were very quick to respond and apologetic. They even brought over a delicious local pastry. The park next to the home was perfect for the grandkids. The cafe across the street had great prices and food. Beautiful old historic home.

In town for a conference

My housemates and I were attending a conference at the Benton Convention Center in downtown Winston Salem. The house was an excellent alternative to a hotel for our stay. It was really close to the downtown, Old Salem, and loads of great restaurants and shops. The house itself is super charming with loads of history and character. The park literally next door was icing on the cake.

COOL Older home

Lots of character, GREAT location for sure. Management was terrific and communication was spot on. We were dealing with 90 degrees but AC worked wonderfully. Kitchen itself is a little small and some of the furniture was a little rickety but it was older decor to match the home.

Beautiful home in good location

We enjoyed our stay in this large, beautiful historic home. The historic part means the windows leak a lot of cold air when it's cold outside, and the heat struggled our first day/evening and couldn't get above 65 degrees inside on the first floor. But the bedrooms got warmer (the thermostat is in the living room) and the next few days were fine. The kitchen is very well-stocked, and everyone found the beds very comfortable. Easy walk to places downtown-- some restaurants and bars are within only a block or two.

6/10 Okay

Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, location, listing accuracy
Disliked: Communication
This is an interesting house with lots of charm and historical fixtures. Of course this means you will also have creaky/tilted floors and broken door knobs but that is part of the charm, isn’t it?? The house was extremely clean, beds were comfortable and rooms were set up well for a multi-generational family of 10. Some of the downsides were the limited size for an area to assemble, especially if you wanted to watch a movie (tv room was a small den). Also, one of the bathrooms upstairs was a Jack-and-Jill which is always awkward. Finally, communication with the host was mixed/spotty. They were extra communicative at the beginning and the property owner was extremely helpful to return an item that was left at the house, but they did not respond to queries which reduced the overall positive experience.

Charming older house

This place was great. It's in a fantastic area with plenty of parking, but an easy walk to tons of cute shops and restaurants. It was the CLEANEST VRBO I've ever stayed in. The kitchen and bathrooms were nicely stocked. It should be noted that the place is old, and has some of the quirks that go with an older place. I would not recommend this for someone with a disability - you need to be able to maneuver some stairs and odd turns. The one bit of criticism I have is that it could use a little maintenance - notably the mattresses tend to lack a bit of oomph, the water barrier in my shower was falling down which caused a lot of water leakage, and the couch in the downstairs TV room really needs to be overhauled - it's pretty much unsittable. But these were minor issues and overall the place was just lovely. We had five couples travelling for a family event. I would stay here again in a second if I had a similar need.
