Very quaint house in a wonderful neighborhood. Close to all the amenities one would want, groceries, restaurants, parks, BSU campus, and more. Enjoyed our stay. The only drawback would be the large host fee and the expectation to take out trash, trash bins, run dish washer and washing machine before leaving. What is left for the cleaning crew to do?

Really loved the location of this home for a visit to BSU, and furnishings were nice and comfortable. The issue for us was cleanliness as there were crumbs and debris from previous stays throughout the home. The daybed is fine for kids but not a good option for anyone over 5'6". Management was very communicative and is aware of the issues.

Quaint cottage close to BSU campus

Clean and adorable house within walking distance of BSU campus. Loved everything about it, especially the patio which we used every day. The only downside is the loud air conditioner. We'll definitely be staying here again.

Great place, close to campus

Loved staying at this cute little house! Quiet street even though it was super close to campus-would be a great place if you're going to a BSU game as it's walking distance from the stadium. We had everything we needed and my dog enjoyed the back yard immensely. Communication was seamless and easy. Thanks so much!
