The place was as advertised. Two comfortable rooms. Both with king beds. Good mattresses. The house is cozy and everything was clean and neat. We stayed for graduation weekend and it worked out perfectly for us.

The HVAC system (Mini splits on the wall) was quirky and at times would shut off in different rooms. The property manager offered to send someone to look at it but mentioned they had recently had them serviced so it felt like an unnecessary offer. It was unseasonably cold and we were uncomfortable at times. Since the home was older and drafty that added to the problem. (There were portable floor heaters provided, so this issue seems to have been known about. Using these heaters sometimes tripped the breakers.)The property manager was amazing. She was very responsive to our requests for any little need we had. We were very thankful for her. We loved the decor and thoughtful touches throughout. The kitchen was stocked nicely. The bedrooms were spacious with lots of closet space.

Thank you so much for taking the time to share your detailed feedback. We’re really glad to hear you enjoyed the decor, thoughtful touches, well-stocked kitchen, and spacious bedrooms, and we truly appreciate your kind words about our property manager—she’ll be happy to hear that. We’re sorry to hear that the HVAC system didn’t provide the level of comfort you expected during your stay, especially given the unseasonably cold weather. At the time, we were not aware of any ongoing issues beyond what had recently been serviced, which is why we offered to have a technician come out right away. We understand how frustrating temperature fluctuations can be, and we regret that this impacted your comfort. Your feedback is helpful, and we’re taking it seriously as we continue to evaluate the system and make improvements where needed to ensure a more consistent experience for future guests. Thank you again for staying with us and for sharing both the positives and areas for improvement—we truly value it.
