    Flower shopping
    4 friends flower shopping. This house worked perfect for us. Had everything we needed. Our only regret is we didn’t stay 2 nights! We loved looking at all of the unique decorations and character of the house.

    We'll book again. Location is great geographically speaking in the city very close to what we needed; but neighborhood not so much a plus. Great vintage feel :)

    Wedding weekend
    My husband and I stayed here two nights the weekend of our wedding and it was the perfect location and distance from our ceremony/reception. The house was lovely and had everything we needed. There was plenty of space to have our wedding party over for lunch and to get ready/dressed for the ceremony as well. It's a very comfortable house and we would definitely consider staying here again and have recommended it to our friends if they have people coming to town!

    Perfect House in Charles City
    The house was beautiful! So very spacious. One bedroom and 2 living rooms on the main floor, and bathroom. Second floor has 3 beautifully decorated bedrooms and a huge bathroom. Washer & dryer on each floor. All different kinds of games. The kitchen is very well stocked. We used the house for a girls weekend and marveled at the decor and original woodwork and doors. The two summer indoor porches on each floor were adorable. The porch on the second floor even had its own coffee maker so you could sit out there and read and sip coffee. The back porch has outdoor canvas chairs and umbrellas. There’s a table, chairs, and bench outside also that we sat and visited during the night. This property is definitely worth staying at.
