A nice property at a great price. We didn’t mind the noise from the train. The property is updated and well kept.

Jack, thank you for your feedback! The train is part of the history and charm of our town, and while most guests find it adds to the character of the area, we understand that everyone’s sensitivity to sound or noise in the distance is different. We are glad is was very minimal for you! For added comfort, we provide white noise fans and earplugs for any light sleepers. We’re so glad you enjoyed your stay overall and appreciate you choosing our home!

The home was so quaint and lovely. You could really feel the love of the home in how it was cared for. Knowing this home had been in the family for 4 Generations is amazing! The upgrades to the home make it feel welcoming and comfortable without losing any of the old charm in its layout. Our girls loved the park that is a short drive (with young ones) or an easy walk with older children! The home is also right next to downtown and its shopping area. The host is very responsive and quick with her messages to questions. I Absolutely recommend this house!!
