Ashley R. Dec 2, 2024 03:29:30 AM
Summary: I am originally from Baker City, born and raised and have lots of family still there. My family of 5 and my parents decided to rent this beautiful historic home. The home itself was very clean and so cool with all the history and old charm. My family loves history and enjoyed the books about the original owners. The hosts were great, easy to communicate with and reasonable with request, allowing us to have a Thanksgiving gathering at the home. The house was very well stocked with necessities and had an impressive dish selection, great for a holiday meal.The yard was expansive and great for a holiday football. This home is in a central location, great for exploring Baker City. I would absolutely recommend a stay in this beautiful home!

Summary: Thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this historic home. It was built in 1878 but has every modern comfort and convenience. Well equipped kitchen, all the amenities you would want in the bathrooms. Lots of beds, big dining room, very nice outdoor patio. Only a two block walk to Main Street. Never used our car once we arrived. Highly recommend!

Summary: Veronica was/is amazing taking care of us/everything. She was/is super easy to communicate with even when you have issues with VRBO. She reached out to VRBO to give me a call to help me. Thank you Veronica for everything! Enjoyed all the local paintings and products for sale. Even purchased some. Read the book you had in the parlor about the house. Good read. Everything is within walking distance. We would stay here again. Our friends are considering this place for their family gatherings in near future. Enjoyed Baker City! Everyone so friendly and helpful. Thanks again.

Summary: We had a great time! The location is perfect for walking to downtown shops and eateries. The weather was lovely allowing us to enjoy relaxing conversation in the large well maintained yard and patio. Beds and linens were excellent and the kitchen was well stocked. We were surprised by the television that just came on suddenly (twice a day). We couldn't find a timer setting on it, so we simply turned it off and had a good laugh. Would definitely stay here again.
Beverly S. Sep 7, 2023 11:00:27 AM
Summary: The house was clean and just as promised, it was an historic adventure. We did have a little trouble getting in when we arrived, as there were issues with the doors working properly. the owner was quick to rectify the problem and the rest of our stay was excellent.
Jack M. Aug 29, 2023 11:01:20 AM
