Oct 9, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy The property was excellent for our group of 7 adult friends. Plenty of sleeping space, functional bathrooms, kitchen was large and decently stocked, and the backyard space was lovely. Easily walkable to downtown (with stairs) and easy drive to grocery store and all essentials. ##### Mary C. Stayed 3 nights in Oct 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Christian G. Aug 6, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy This beautiful, old home served as a great home base for my family (including our 2 kids), aunts, uncles and cousins. In total, there were 10 of us, and this house easily accommodated all of us. The kids loved the hidden bonus room and the large living area. The fenced-in back yard was a hit as well, as the kids could run and play safely. We even had a bonfire. The kitchen is spacious, and has all the cooking supplies we needed. And it was just a few minutes walk into town. We hope to make this an annual tradition! ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/f10fa39c-72b2-4ecb-9363-f6039860408b-1754443352923.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/ccc19d33-325a-4e40-81d1-99a96e35b71b-1754443352912.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Christian G.
