This is not a typical short-term rental; it is not a renovated dependency or a newly constructed unit in an old neighborhood, nor is it situated on a tiny lot in a questionable or remote area. The old hardwood floors, tall ceilings, original moldings, plasterwork, windows, and doors exude a special warmth, character, and charm that is very difficult to achieve in new construction. The exterior copper roof and guttering provide additional warmth and character. It`s the real deal!
*If needing early check-in or late check-out please DO NOT ask until the day before check-in at earliest due possible last minute rentals. If you absolutely NEED it, I would suggest renting the night prior*
*Pet Policy: Only Small Pets under 25 pounds (maximum of 2) allowed with prior written approval ($200 non-refundable fee per pet).Must have authorization prior to reservation.*

Property was comfortable and location was perfect. Absolutely everything is within walking distance, and despite having a parking spot...next time I'll leave the car home. Can't wait to come back!
Clean, well stocked and organized. Didn’t love the spiral staircase, but it was as shown. Heat on the first floor wasn’t great, but most times of the year, not an issue
Everything was absolutely lovely! A great home away from home for a few days. Great location, great amenities- everything we needed and more was included, it felt peaceful and secluded for the location. I would absolutely recommend this to anyone who asked!
