Enjoyable Comforting Stay

There were so many great things about staying at this property. Relaxing atmosphere, with nice size yard for the puppies. Definitely the most comfortable bed that we have slept in away from home. Small amenities that just make life easier if you forget to bring something. Got a horrible sunburn and was able to use the aloe plant in the house and it helped so much. The owner of the property was fantastic, even when my dad showed up 3 hours early. He happened to be at the house and they talked for quite a bit. Highly recommend staying at this property!!

Clean, comfortable, and close to the Zoo

Family of six (kids ages 6-12), enjoyed our two-night stay, and house was just as described. Bathrooms were very clean, and kitchen was spacious with helpful basic supplies. There are phone chargers throughout the house and in each bedroom. Street parking only, but plenty of space directly in front of the house. It was easy to drive into downtown and to the surrounding neighborhoods. We walked to the zoo one afternoon.
