NICE!!
This is a cozy little get away place that we enjoyed very much. Loved the kitchenette for morning coffee and late evening suppers of leftovers warmed in the microwave. We also enjoyed afternoon tea there each day of our stay. Evenings were spent in the lovely front room in front of the television watching retro tv programs...a favorite. The bedrooms and bath were very generous as well. The location is close to downtown and very walkable. We would enjoy staying there again. Thanks!!

Softball rainout
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this historic property! We came to participate in a softball tourney that ended up being rained out so we got to enjoy the waterpark instead! This property is a short walk into town, which we did twice during our 2-night stay. Classy decorations and a tub my kids enjoyed bathing in with a super cute deck out back (2nd story). Chris was prompt, professional and kind in his responses to my requests and helped make our stay stress-free! Thank you!

Great apartment located just a block off Main Street. Everything was within walking distance. Great place to stay for a weekend. There is a fridge, coffee maker, and microwave available to use. Great restaurants near by. Chris had lots of excellent suggestions. Great little balcony and the bathroom remodel is beautiful.
