Night in a Museum

Wonderful stay in a beautiful, historic home, furnished with antiques and authentic decor. The best part was that every bedroom had it’s own bathroom and shower.

Home away from home

It was wonderful. Spotlessly clean, accessible, everything we needed for our stay during our sons wedding. We were gone during the day; it was so relaxing to come back to.

Comfort in Beauty

My sister and I had a wonderful 2-day stay in this beautiful, clean historic home. It had new and modern comforts amongst the treasured antiques. The décor was detailed and amazing. For us, it was like staying in a movie set! We appreciated the hosts special touches including coffee/tea in the pantry, water filter pitcher, bottle of wine, and so much more. The backyard was lovely and the neighborhood was quiet. With no TV, we enjoyed visiting, reading, and playing games. It was a perfect place for our relaxing mini-vacation.

Step back in time

As you enter the home its like a step back in time. There was great thought put into this home. From the wall paper carpet and furinture. The atmosphere was amazing also. Quite and zen. With the 4 bedrooms and 4 bathrooms you have your own personal space to truely relax. The best part of the trip is no tv but there was wifi if you need tv that bad you can watch on your phone or tablet. I grew up in this town and this house is what every resident that buys a house strives for. Truely a great experience.

Spectacular and enchanting

The neighborhood was quiet during our stay. Parking was super convenient and accessible. No permit was necessary as in some other neighborhoods we've stayed in before. The home is a welcoming Victorian delicacy! It is ravishing inside and out! Every single bedroom has its own bathroom which made it extremely convenient for everyone. Exceptional care went int every detsil of the constructionn, design, and decor of this home. There is no television, which made it possible for us all to converse and enjoy each other more. We had an evening of ghost story telling in the communal room; which made it for a most exciting and humorous night! Thank you to our hosts for allowing such a jewel to be shared with us.
