Summary: We chose this property for several couples to stay at before a wedding and it worked out wonderfully. There’s enough space in the driveway for two pickups and a car, and the porch was great for bug-free happy hours. The host was easy to contact with questions and very helpful. We had a great stay!

Summary: Communication was so great and check-in/check-out was a breeze. We were there with 8 adults and the common space was great. Three bedrooms very spacious. The room with twin beds is a trundle in small room so plan accordingly. We loved the character of the old home and was updated nicely. Kitchen was well stocked. We would stay again if ever in the area.
