An older house has been lovingly fixed up & decorated with “old” items from early 20th century. A real jewel to enjoy & stay in. Harry

Lovely home- just needs a thorough cleaning of upstairs bedrooms and laundry room. Too many cobwebs. Very accommodating and comfortable! Wish it had a bathroom upstairs!

The front porch! Quiet neighborhood, and perfect spot for enjoying an early morning cup of coffee or an evening glass of wine. The property is very charming, and everything you need is there. It feels like home when you walk in. Thayer is a nice, very small community and essential stores are just down the street. The host is very responsive, and nearby in case you need something.

The owner communicated ahead of time accurately and was very responsive throughout the stay. The house was perfect, beds were comfortable, plenty of towels etc. furnishings were great, really made it feel like home. The instructions for the house were easy to understand and easy to follow. I have more work to do in the area and I will definitely use them again.

Robert was a most accommodating and gracious host. I thoroughly enjoyed staying in this lovely comfortable home away from home. I have relatives in the area and I have visited the area my whole life. It was so nice to be able to come there at the end of the day and feel so at home. Very clean and well kept older home. I highly recommend booking this home, if ever in the area. I look forward to knowing I have this option with my next visit. Sandie
