Perfect for a long weekend retreat!

This older house is comfortable, clean, and spacious for four adults. The house is in a quiet neighborhood and a great location close to everything downtown, a short walk and you are in Highland Park. It was perfect for our visit to the area!

Fine with a few caveats

Having read prior reviews, there were not many surprises. My breakdown:Positives:-easy check-in/check-out-friendly hosts-excellent communication, always responded promptly and sent teams in when warranted-Pac-man machine was a huge hit, our kids loved it-location good, near Highland Park, good access to supermarkets and felt generally pretty safeCons:-the house is a little worn, can tell it's a rental -crib was broken-agree with prior reviews about cheap polyester/oddly fitting bedding-there was a squirrel infestation in the roof. Although we were told they hadn't breached the house, they were quite loud scampering around at night and early morning-slow shower drain-water condenser was leaking and the basement where washer/dryer was musty/damp smelling- they did fix it during our stay-the AC, which was quite strong at first, started sputtering toward the end of our three week trip and then just stopped working completely, making the last 2 days quite hot and uncomfortableOverall it was fine (but definitely not luxurious) for a short vacation, and as mentioned, the hosts worked promptly to address issues that came up. Worth noting that they also had addressed issues from prior guest visits, like the low quantity of dinnerware issue- we brought paper plates and utensils after reading reviews, but there were quite enough plates/cups for all 6 of us.

Weekend to visit family

Three generations stayed here while visiting Rochester family. The space was comfortable and convenient. Off street parking available for three cars. Location only blocks away from a nice walking park and also a smoothie place down the street at the corner. Convenient to downtown but quiet and tree lined. Highly recommended.

Very nice

Cute, very clean home in a quiet area. We appreciated that it was dog friendly. Super comfortable bed and little extras in the kitchen such as dish & hand soap, paper towels, even shampoo, conditioner, and body wash in the bathroom. We could also pack light knowing there was a washer and dryer to use. Overall a great place to stay!

Great location!

We went to the PGA Championship and the house was in a great location for the Championship parking as well as close to many restaurants. Plus you can park 2 cars in the driveway as street parking is limited. Allison was responsive right away if we had questions.

Convenient home with 3 bedrooms

The property is as described. No issues accessing the house and the location makes it easy to reach U of R and Highland Park. 3 bedrooms makes it easy to sleep 3-4 kids separate from parents. The house does smell like smoke. The house was well cleaned, but the smoke smell was throughout.
