We loved this house so much. The neighborhood was so peaceful and quiet. There is a gorgeous Catholic Church around the corner, the Bunker Hill Memorial down the street, and Warren Tavern a couple of blocks down. I highly recommend staying here! The owners are so kind and are easy to reach if you need them. The house is beautifully decorated and so comfortable.

The apartment was exceedingly well stocked, right down the tums in the night stand. The host and hostess were wonderful. Great place, very clean, bright with a great hello/explination from the hostess. Would gladly stay there again. Only complaint, move the subway station a little closer!

We’ve stayed here a few times and find the apartment a perfect place to stay. Everything you can possibly need is available and handy. The bathroom and kitchen provide everything you need and the beds are cosy and comfortable. And there’s a Whole Foods in easy walking distance, along with some wonderful restaurants.

The host, Cindy, was easy to communicate with and very welcoming. The house is in a great location - close to the Monument, shops and lots of great restaurants. It was a warm and comfortable place to return to after our day’s adventures. We visited during the Halloween celebration. We will return to this wonderful home again!

This was an absolutely enjoyable place to stay. The hosts, very nice people, thought of every little amenity we may have wanted even down to umbrellas for a rainy day. It’s a great location in a lovely neighborhood and is so easy to get around. It’s right down the street from the Bunker Hill monument. Found a wonderful bakery/coffee shop a couple of blocks away. The water ferry takes you to the wharf. Recommend the hop on and off buses too. Charming, and we highly recommend this place!

This is a delightful spacious ground floor apartment in the beautiful neighbourhood of Charlestown. Arthur and Cindy were perfect hosts, friendly and welcoming. Their communication was great and they kindly accommodated our difficulties after a stressful journey. The property is no more than 30 minute's walk from the major sights of Boston and public transport is also excellent. The historic Warren Tavern is 2 blocks and serves great food in an atmospheric surrounding. We would stay again without any hesitation. Thank you.

Five Wonderful Days in Massachusetts!

Our family of four was visiting Boston and the surrounding region for 5 days. For our two daughters (ages 14 and 16), this was their first trip to the region. We combined college visits with standard "first time tourists in Boston" activities (e.g. Freedom Trail, Swan Boats, dinner in the North End), and also side trips to the Cape, Plymouth and Salem. Every minute of the trip was fantastic, and we loved our VRBO. The Charlestown neighborhood was lovely, and a great location from which to launch all our other activities. The apartment itself was a great size, and very nicely arranged for our family. It was a great balance between unique and charming decor, but also simple, clean and clutter-free. Our host Cindy was great and very easy to work with. We would definitely recommend this VRBO to our friends with 2-4 people who are visiting Boston.

Great little apartment!

The owner greeted my daughter and me with a smile and gave us a tour. The little apartment is filled with every amenity you could imagine including a fresh container of coffee creamer in the fridge. It was clean and in a great, quiet location right near the freedom trail. Way better value than a hotel!

We really enjoyed our stay! The house and location offered the “New England charm” we were hoping for while being conveniently close to Historic Boston. We took advantage of several great restaurants nearby, the parks and used Old Town Trolley passes—walking to the USS Constitution Museum stop (#3) made it easy to access all the historic sites Boston has to offer. Cindy and Arthur were incredibly helpful, providing tons of information about the area. My husband says that our “history lesson” with Arthur was one of the highlights of the trip!
