The host was very nice and helped out with our needs. Great house with lots of room. Close to Boston College where we went for sports. Main floor plenty of room for everyone to hang out. I would go back if I was in the area. Getting out of driveway can be tough but manageable.

Evidently, the HVAC went out and the owner canceled our reservation the day before we were to arrive. This left us with nowhere to stay and a difficult time finding another place.This was very hard for 70 travelers!!!

This home was perfect for our stay. We didn’t need to rent a car as the Train was within walking distance and then there were shopping places close by. There were 7 girls and we had plenty of room with the 4 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms. The weather was perfect so we spent a lot of time on the back patio which was also perfect. The only thing would be the back door was extremely hard to close but probably just needs some WD40 or something. But, I would definitely recommend staying here and would love to go back myself.

Mass work trip

The location was perfect for what we needed. The backyard was the perfect was to unwind after the long days of work. The bird feeders were nice wish they were filled so we could have caught some action.

Perfect for graduation accommodations

Fairly close to Boston College. The house was so cute. The first floor bedroom was perfect for my mother who is elderly. The stairs to the house were a little bit rough for her, but she made it. The hosts had a lot of toiletry items in case you forgot something. Games and toys available to use. The master bathroom was very nicely done. Backyard was also a nice spot to hang out, though we just didn’t have much time to use. Logs available for fireplace though we didn’t use.

Great space for a visit!

Everything was great! Our host was very quick to respond if there was a question. Plenty of room for all 5 adults (and then some). The only negative about the location is pulling out of the driveway. Easy enough to deal with though. For us, the proximity of this location to our family and friends for this visit was great. 20-25 minutes at most whether going into Boston or heading out to family in the suburbs.

Boston College experience

My family and I were in town to tour Boston College because our son starts there in the fall and we wanted to stay near the school and get the feel of the neighborhood. The home was in a perfect location and great neighborhood. We were only a few minutes from the college and about 20 minutes from downtown Boston. The host was great with recommendations to stores and restaurants both near the home and downtown. I would definitely stay here again. Also, I drive a big truck so off street parking was a must and even though the driveway was a bit shallow and on a busy road I had no problem getting in and out. The home was well equipped with everything we needed and more and had nice appliances and furnishings.
