Spent a long weekend with family during a big snow storm and it was an amazing time. The home was everything it said and more! Every corner was a new and Beautiful space in the home that is well kept, clean and fully stocked! Loved every aspect as it was secluded but near what you needed, hot tub was great along with the beautiful sunroom/reading room! 10/10 recommend!!!! ##### Stephen F.

This is a quiet home in a beautiful neighborhood. Step into a time gone by with the decor, but with all the modern amenities. Enjoy a morning cup of coffee or an evening glass of wine in the hot tub. Lots of nooks & crannies to spread out the family. ##### Lisa S. ### 10/10 Excellent #### Elizabeth O. 29 Oct 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Comfortable with beautiful surroundings With the exception of us having to leaf blow the driveway to distinguish driveway from yard, our stay was exceptional. Spoless house.Houswa ##### Elizabeth O. Stayed 4 nights in Oct 2024 This review comes from a trusted partner site and has not been verified. ### 10/10 Excellent #### Mary T. 29 Sept 2024 #### Charming and Unique Home The personality of this wonderful home charmed us. The soaring wood paneling, comfortable furnishings, and unique layout stole our hearts. The upstairs loft is full of rare children's books; the downstairs den has a piano and plenty of sheet music. This is not a generic "hotel" experience. The personal touches make it feel as though you've walked into the civilized home of some very cultured and sophisticated people. The imaginative use of lofts and interior balconies feature skylights giving views of tree tops. We are eager to return! ##### Mary T. Stayed 3 nights in Sep 2024 ### 4/10 Poor #### Allison H. 18 Oct 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, location, listing accuracy #### Nice home but disappointing experience pros of house: well stocked kitchen, great location (close to downtown and beaches), very quiet cons of house: need better window treatments in the bedrooms Additionally, we had issues with the heat/hot water during our stay, where we did not have either for almost 24 hours, and traveling with a baby, we could not stay in the house because it was 54 degrees and ended up having to check out early. The problem has since been addressed by the management team and we are appreciative of that. There was also a large amount of mouse poop in the garage (there was NO evidence of anything in the house), but this was less than ideal because we were at the house with our dog who kept getting into it. I do think these issues will 100% be fixed for the next renters (I think my family and I "took one for the team") but I do think its important to be transparent about our experience. ##### Allison H.
