About the host
Hosted by Tommy Bodkins
Tommy was a personal chef for a private family for many decades, and his artistic soul shines through every corner of this home. When he bought this historic house, he poured years of passion into creating something truly magical—a reflection of his deep love for music, art, and cooking. Every colorful tile, every piece of musical art, every thoughtful detail speaks to a life well-lived and generously shared.
Over the years, Tommy has personally greeted and hosted over 450 guests, earning and maintaining his Superhost status through genuine warmth and impeccable hospitality.
He and his wife Jennifer spent years here crafting this sanctuary before setting off on their European adventure, where they're no doubt sampling extraordinary food and soaking in centuries of history.
The warmth and creativity they infused into this space remains, waiting to welcome you.

What makes this property unique
Two bedrooms, one bathroom - thoughtfully designed for comfort within the charm of a century-old home.
The bathroom is cozy (as you'd expect in a historic house), but we've made sure every convenience is there. We've added a makeup area in each bedroom to give you extra counter space and room for getting ready—no fighting over the mirror!
And for those seeking an unforgettable experience, there's an outdoor tropical shower in the garden. Imagine showering under the open sky, surrounded by lush greenery—it's one of our guests' favorite features.
The kitchen door opens directly onto a comfortable wooden back porch, creating a seamless flow between indoor comfort and outdoor serenity. This is eclectic living at its finest—joyful, colorful, and utterly authentic.
As dozens of guests have shared in their glowing reviews, the garden is where the magic truly happens. This isn't just a backyard—it's a transformative outdoor sanctuary that guests describe as "therapeutic," "peaceful," and "like a retreat somewhere far away."
