Manager Communication

"All well except only small garbage both upstairs and in basement area. Communication excellent. Place was very clean but I only gave that part 4 stars due to the lack of proper garbages in rooms."

CleaningAs Advertised

"Everything was great. The place was clean and very cute. Looked just like the photos. The location is beautiful and a quick walk to the sculpture gardens. The house was great. The only negative would be that the next door neighbors kept walking around in the front and back yard and looking in the windows. We spoke with them and they were nice, but they were definitely a bit nosey. Overall wonderful experience, highly recommend and would rent again!"

Lovely neighborhood stay

"Property was lovely, great neighborhood, comfortable home with nice little back porch. I would love to see them add a pillow top pad to the mattresses and a king bed downstairs. Love the three stories. We stayed in the basement with full bath and our adult children had 2 beds and a bath upstairs. Beautiful and quiet place. Will stay again."
