Great home

This was our second stay in this charming historic home in less than two years, and it was just as wonderful as the first! The house is impressively well maintained given its age, and the host is incredibly friendly and responsive. It’s in a fantastic location for exploring the area—ideal for history lovers and anyone who appreciates classic architecture.

House was impressive for its age. Only, don’t think staying with Mice/Rats is what I expected. Not afraid of them. Just think they should be taken care of. How do I get a partial refund for this matter?

Happy Times

We had a great time and the host was very kind to let us pay just a small fee after we had a surprise guest stay with us.The house is at a great location for visiting all that St Joseph has to offer. One of these days I want to come to St Joseph when the Weather is not so cold and enjoy the patio area

Gothic House

House is beautiful! Clean, lovely antique furniture throughout. Fun to read the history of the house. Location in historic district makes it fun to see many gorgeous houses in the area. Only weakness is the lighting, it makes putting on makeup interesting. We would definitely stay here again but bring better makeup mirrors.

Chiefs Training Camp

Beautiful restored house! Loved the unique features. Pictures in the listing don’t do it justice! Much better then expected. Only complaint is the owner doesn’t allow you to adjust the air, he has to do it. House was HOT when we arrived but finally he adjusted the air for us and made it more comfortable. Check in and out were a breeze!

Wonderful Experience.

What can I add to the already great reviews? When you enter the house , you can feel this is not your regular rental. The furnishings and memorabilia, nostalgia can be felt. However the appliances are modern. So a combination of old and new. WIFI, TV Work great. Lots of hot water. Can't believe there's also a USB charging outlet! The house is spotless. All the basics you need. The beds are extremely comfortable. Entry is secure. Check in ,Check out smooth. Space to sit outside and enjoy. Area is quiet and safe. Short drives to Chiefs training camp, stores and restaurants. James is readily available to answer any questions and concerns. Thank you James for hosting me and giving me the opportunity to experience this beautiful house.

Awesome property

We really enjoyed our stay at this property. My elderly mom was with us and we had a wonderful time and enjoyed looking at all the antiques and the detail in this home. Anything you could ever need is provided for you and everything is so neat and clean. My mom didn’t want to leave. It was close to everything we did in Saint Joseph.

Beautiful home in St. Joseph

Our family really enjoyed the stay! The house is extremely well kept, the bathrooms are clean, the kitchen was excellent, and the beds were comfortable. Host is very easy to communicate with. The house is very secure and there is a good alarm system--not their fault, but house is not situated in the best part of town.

Enjoyed

Property was the perfect area for everything we wanted to see and visit. So enjoyed the renovations of the old mansions around your house. And the renovations you have done yourself. You still kept the old but renovated with just enough new to make it comfortable. Thank you! Tracy

The house is beautiful. Great beds (super comfortable). A lot of kitchen essentials already in the home, no scissors unfortunately. Best part was the patio, such a nice little area.

Everything I needed (and what I didn't but you might!) was readily at hand in this historic treasure of a home. The only thing missing was milk for the cereal!
