Our stay couldn’t have been better. The house was great, location was awesome, the hosts were very communicative. 6 of us stayed in the house. Perfect location in Cambridge. We highly recommend staying here!

Location, Location, Location!
Wonderful location. T extremely accessible. Owners so very responsive. Had absolutely everything our family of 6, with 3 generations, needed - enough bedrooms, baths, good air conditioning, not too many stairs to climb. Would stay again in a heartbeat.
There was much to love about this house, and overall we had a very nice time. One significant concern was that the renters who live in an apartment above the bedrooms

Great place for a group
Our group (several families) were attending a friends wedding in Boston and this house was perfect. Lots of space and bedrooms and great location walkable to T, restaurants, local vs park for the kids. Highly recommend Bagelsaurus nearby for breakfast

Perfect home
We needed a place to stay, very last minute, to gather as a family to say farewell to our mother who passed away recently. The location and house was the perfect respite for us as we attended to one another during a very emotional week.

This is a Victorian home in a treed and lovely neighborhood within easy walking distance of Harvard Square. The owners are friendly, accessible, and available. We were surprised to learn that a couple lives on the top floor of the house, but they were very quiet and we never saw them. Parking is tight, and we got ticketed on the street—we would have liked to have that on-street parking permit if only for the times when we were swapping out cars in the driveway (our party had three cars). These were minor details in a stay that was otherwise flawless. Morning coffee on their deck, well-stocked kitchen for cooking together, absolute quiet in the neighborhood, beautiful walks into the Square—I could go on. Perfect house share for our college reunion.

Beautiful Home in a Wonderful Neighborhood
This house was the perfect "home away from home" for both my family and another family traveling with us. The hosts were wonderful and helped us get situated before leaving the property to us for our stay. The neighborhood was beautiful, with easy access to many great restaurants and public transportation. We all enjoyed our stay and would highly recommend.

Beautiful family home with very pleasant kitchen/dining/living area on ground floor and 4 comfortable bedrooms on second floor. Historic home with lots of books, atmosphere and relaxed setting with gracious hosts and spacious front and back porches for relaxing and enjoying the flowers and lawn views. Perfect location a couple of blocks from bikeshare and transit and restaurants, great residential neighborhood.

We enjoyed staying at this house. I wish there had been some space to put clothes- the closets were all full with owners things. It felt more like staying at a friend’s house than at a house that is rented.

Wonderful Property
I was part of a group of 7 and we had a fabulous time. The house itself was loaded with dishes and silverware and household items and we all had room to unpack as well. Even though the owners live in the house when they’re not renting we all had plenty of room for our own things.
Location was the other issue and it was amazing. We were in the Porter Square area and there was a grocery store, hardware store, etc. and then so many restaurants.
Totally positive experience. Thank you Dean & Veda.

Several issues but location and size are good
Big, old Victorian full of knick-knacks with little room to unpack except on couches. Location is wonderful. Front door is in disrepair and required detailed directions on how to wiggle open. I felt like the owners were doing us a personal favor letting us stay there as she started asking me to leave by 10 AM to accomodate cleaners when checkout is by 11 AM and sending multiple texts and calling. We left by 10 AM and they were on site as we packed up. Not run like a vacation rental but when options are few in Boston, may do just fine….

Misleading Information
The house itself is beautiful, if a little worn. And our stay was fine, but the property description is very misleading. This is NOT a true VRBO. Not at all what I was expecting from the listing. The owners live in the house and move down to a basement studio when they rent the house. The closets, drawers, shelves and bathrooms are filled with their personal effects. They cleared off a shelf in the bedroom and moved clothes to either side of the closet, leaving a very small space for our clothes right in the middle of theirs.
Personal products handing in the shower.
Owner was frequently present.
Just be prepared.

Clean, furnished, good location / Hard bed, noisy old house
Dean & Vida are very sweet and gave a welcoming tour when we arrived. The house is clean, and they are very generous with their supplies. Spices, coffee, tea, paper towels, etc. Great for saving on groceries and restaurants while traveling. Lots of space, so it was awesome for spending time with family. Cheaper than a hotel (but not by much) and nice to have the communal space for a group. Beautiful back yard and a relatively short walk to the subway.
The only downside for me was the master bed — wildly uncomfortable. I honestly have no idea how they sleep like that. Hard mattress and the slightest movement makes the frame creak. If you’re a light sleeper you will wake yourself up adjusting. I have EDS and a ton of joint pain/sleep issues, so I ended up sleeping on a blanket on the floor most of the stay.
I also don’t recall if the listing said this, but there is a downstairs and upstairs neighbor. We did hear the upstairs one, which woke my partner up more than once. I knew it was an old home, so the info about neighbors would have been good to know ahead of time.
All that said, as long as your group is made of low maintenance sleepers, you will love this home!

Perfect house for reunion friends
Very good location to the local colleges for an October reunion basecamp. The kitchen and living room are large, as are the bedrooms. We used all 4 bedrooms on the upper level.
The house was easy to operate, sufficiently comfortable and convenient for our purpose. The owners provided good communication and this was an overall 'low-hassle' rental -- Thank you!

Great home for extended family in Cambridge
We rented this home for a gathering of my extended family in the Boston area. This beautiful home had plenty of space for everyone to stay comfortably and kept us cool during an especially hot week in Boston. The neighborhood was great and there were many good restaurants and grocery options within walking distance. Communication with the hosts was easy and we enjoyed meeting them.

Great summer Boston trip
We had a great experience with this rental of 3 days for a party of 7-two families. The house is a perfect choice for two families. It has two bedrooms with king size beds. The location is super convenient, to the subway stations and restaurants. We love the great selection of herb tea that Dean and Vida provided! Overall we had a great time.

Perfect for MIT graduation weekend!
The property was spacious, clean and well laid out for a multi-generation family trip to MIT's graduation. It is conveniently located by the T and is about a 5 min ride to Kendall Square. Great restaurants and ice cream shops are located within walking distance.
We reserved for MIT's graduation weekend and the house did not disappoint. It was clean, the AC worked well, and there was enough space for those who wanted to take a nap or go to bed early to do so, while others could play cards and hang out.
