Our group of 5 enjoyed our stay. The house was clean and well supplied. It was very comfortable and we spent a lot of time sitting on the deck eating our meals and. Chatting. Having a bedroom and bathroom with a zero entry shower on the first floor was very nice.

Cute house close to plenty of dining

This house is in a great location and within walking distance of a grocery store and a lot of dining options. The area is cute and the house is well maintained with plenty of room for 6 people. Downtown Boston is about 30 minutes away (depending on traffic) which was quite convenient. Would stay here again.

We love Boston and house.

We loved the house, it was clean, well stocked, and the bed was very comfortable. It is within walking distance to a big grocery store and public transportation (the trolley that takes you to the train) and the neighborhood was quiet. We would stay there again if we make it back to Boston.

Perfect place for family wedding in Boston

We had no issues with the property whatsoever. It worked perfectly for our family getaway. Kitchen was nicely provisioned. Linens were plenty and nice. Off street parking was very much appreciated. Quiet neighborhood and local restaurants were great!

Great place, nice neighborhood

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this lovely and clean home. Please make sure you double check the address as there are two identical addresses in Boston and I booked this house for Harvard graduation thinking it was 15 minutes away when it was actually about 50. However, that was my bad—it is listed correctly and public transit is convenient and close by.

This house was conveniently located near the trolley (approx. 3 block walk) which took us to the trolley then subway to downtown area of Boston, so we could leave our vehicle in the driveway (which has a nice L-shaped driveway). The 3 bedroom / 2 bath house was roomy and comfortable for four friends. Large kitchen with plenty of ‘appliances’The host was quick to respond with questions about the house / the area…. We would stay here again if in the area.

Great Boston stay

We had a great stay in this nice little house. The house was set up and decorated nicely and had everything we needed. The neighborhood was safe, we sat out on the front porch in evening to enjoy a class of wine and ate dinner outside on the completely private back deck. We walked to D&D and dinner at a local tavern that had excellent food and exercised on the greenway which is 11/2 blocks from the house. We would surely stay at this place again.

A little outside Boston proper, good value

Overall a nice property. Easy check in and check out process. It's nicely updated. Outlets in bathrooms werent working, brought to attention of owner, so should be taken care of. Nice off street parking. In better weather, couldve been walkablecto grocery store and restaurants. Not a terrible drive to get to major Boston sights.

Cozy and clean

We received all the information we needed the day before check-in. The house was as advertised. The offstreet parking was great. The house was walking distance to a grocery store, Dunkin’ Donuts, and several other places. The people in the area that I interacted with were very friendly.

Homey Abode

I stayed here with family members. We thought the property was very lovely and in a pleasant neighborhood. Everything we could need was in the house. We especially appreciated the toiletries and the Nespresso provided. Kitchen was fully functional. The property was very clean and the bedrooms and living spaces were nicely decorated. It felt more personable and comfortable than staying in a hotel. It was truly a nice getaway for us who were in the area to explore Boston!
