This was our second time of staying here. We love it! It’s great location to walk to town and love all the bathrooms, with ten women staying here it works out perfect! We also love the theater room, we watch our hometown football play at state the past two years! James is a great host! Thanks again!

The location can't be beat. Short walk to downtown, on a hill with a great view and right next door to Belvedere House. The house was full of history and had beautiful furniture and comfortable beds. The ensuite bathrooms were also a big plus.

James was a great host! Loved his suggestions on places to visit and wine to drink. Very cool building- very clean and well maintained. We completely enjoyed our stay. Two things to be aware of- lots of stairs and lots of traffic on road. It can be quite noisy.

Girls’ Weekend

It was a great place for our girls’ weekend of old high school friends, with room for all 10 of us comfortably, including a few others who stopped by for a few hours one afternoon. Only suggestion would be to have one or two more chairs in that front parlor on the first floor. 60 yr old folks can only sit on the floor for so long… Loved the proximity to Main St, too.

Great weekend with friends

Property is historical and charming. Love the original decor, location, and size of the home made it really convenient for all our guests. It was great to have privacy and our own bathrooms when needed. I think the home has even more potential for upgrades in the future. TVs in the bedrooms would be a nice touch.

The Mansion!

Great location, was awesome having my family all in on big house. Really loved the aged feel of being in such an old historic house. I can’t imagine the original owners and their lifestyle.

We were 8 older people. The stairs made it a little tricky, but we enjoyed ourselves in spite of them. A great house. Great hot.

The house was very spacious, clean and nice for an older home. Loved the gardens and that each bedroom had a private bathroom. James was a great host. Very quick to respond to any questions. The neighborhood is beautiful and walkable.

Family Weekend Fun!

My family rented this home to all be together to celebrate my mom's birthday! There was plenty of space, the house is huge. We spent most of our time on the middle level in the kitchen, game room, and theater. The theater seats were very comfortable and it was the perfect place for some downtime. The only negative is the train close by, and with it being an old home, voices travel and the floors creaked, so it could be pretty loud, but that was to be expected. The location was great and close to main st. for shops, bars, and restaurants, our favorite was Fried Green Tomatoes & Miss Kitty's Grape Escape.
