This house screams the color green and verde, meaning green, elevates its ambiance. It sits on a corner lot with enough greenery, grass, and trees, to give it a country feel. Yes, so cool...a country feel in a neighborhood that's a hop, skip, and a jump from the action of downtown Fort Wayne. It's country life in the BIG city...It's the El Verde Escape! Come for a refreshing and peaceful stay!

This cozy cottage has everything we needed as we were up in the area for my son’s state music association event. Conveniently located, well appointed, and a great responsive host!
It was so clean and comfy ! my daughter has autism and it was such an easy transition for her ! they had sensory toys available as well which was so accommodating . Mr Bill also came during a snow storm and shoveled and cleaned our cars off and ensured we had everything we needed , the wifi worked amazing and it was so warm and cozy .

I am so happy you enjoyed your stay and that it was an easy transition for your daughter! Thank you for being a great guest. Come back again!
I appreciated how responsive the host was throughout our stay. However, I felt the property was not accurately represented in the listing. Although it was described as non-smoking, there was a strong and noticeable odor of smoke upon arrival, suggesting prior smoking in the home. Additionally, there were several safety concerns that ultimately made the stay feel inconsistent with the price paid.
We really enjoyed staying in this home for our Thanksgiving trip. It’s got the perfect mix of historic charm and modern updates, especially in the kitchen, which had everything we needed to heat up our Thanksgiving dinner. The house is small, cozy, and just right for our dogs, who loved exploring the yard and going on walks around the nearby elementary school.Our stay also felt a bit nostalgic since my husband’s 85-year-old uncle, who came with us, used to go to Harrison Hill School right across the street. It made the visit even more meaningful.There was plenty of parking, lots of natural light throughout the house, and everything was clean and in working order. Nicole was a super accommodating host. We’d definitely stay here again on our next trip to Fort Wayne.
