Other Things to Note:
You will have full access to our large and beautiful home, front porch and sitting areas.
My wife and I live in the carriage house in the rear of the house. This is a completely separate space with a yard between the two houses for privacy. Due to local laws, the owner must stay on the property to rent residential properties. This is a one of a kind opportunity for a large group to stay in the heart of uptown in a residential area near the best bars and shops. Come stay "like a local" in our home.
Please view our "Getting Around" section about our distance to various City landmarks and destinations. Please review our House Rules about early check-in or late check-out. Thanks – we look forward to hosting you!
Interaction with Guests:
My wife and I live in a separate house in the back yard so we're onsite in case you need anything. We'd love to meet you, but we respect your vacation and are happy to interact as much or as little as you'd like.
