Definitely. Having a hard time writing a review, I was under the impression that they were having a dinner party and not a work party. Too many people too much alcohol. Other than that, they're a good people.

Everything was clean, rooms, kitchen, beds etc. The listing was not clear that it is a guest house which was a surprise to us. There are 3 floors, the guests (us) have access to the first 2 floors while the owner is on the third floor. My wife was a bit uncomfortable with this setup. I do think it should be clearly mentioned in the title or description.

Sweet Wedding

We used the property for 2 nights to hold a small wedding (with the owner’s permission). Everything was wonderful. So much gorgeous restored wood set a very romantic Victorian feel. 4 large, comfortable, master painter themed bedrooms with 2 convenient full bathrooms on the second floor. Especially appreciated the owner leaving welcome items for things we forgot. What a beautiful historical property that was the perfect backdrop for lasting memories!
Incredible, romantic staircase
An inviting entrance and off street parking
Relaxing private deck and herb garden
Front porch that was great to enjoy the quiet neighborhood

Good morning ☕️ Kiera was a joy like family always welcome. So sorry about the dog I do have 3 air filters and a high tec vac to eliminate any pollutants and a ozone generator that kills infections. For the most part the air in the house is cleaner than outside.
