House was excellent. Very spacious with plenty of room to spread out. Everything was clean and well organized. The kitchen was great but was lacking in some things which we usually find in most rentals such as foil, wire wisk and only 1 dish rag. Overall, a nice home and good location.

Great Place, Accurate Listing
House was perfect and clean. Exactly how it was described in the listing. Solid location walking distance to food & entertainment. Only small issue I had is that check in wasn’t until 4:00 but you can request early checkin and the host was great with communication.

Great, large house for family stay
Great, large house in convenient and pleasant neighborhood. The house is very spacious, with big bedrooms and plenty of hang-out spots. Very clean, easy communication with management.
Quick walk up Park Street to cafes and stores or head to the river to catch the sunrise. Glad we stayed here.

Wonderful home for families
We loved our stay! Ample space for our family, comfortable and good quality furnishings. The weather was perfect while we were there, so we spent several hours on the porch, as well as walking and playing in the park across the street. Would definitely return!
