This is a beautiful historic home with a lot of character, and the owner was polite and responsive. However, guests should expect a very rustic property rather than a traditionally updated vacation rental.During our stay, we found evidence of mice on the kitchen countertop after one chewed through a granola bar wrapper and ate the contents. I threw away some of our food and notified the owner. They offered to reimburse us and said they would have the property treated. While I understand that pests can be an issue in homes of this age; evidence of mice on a food-preparation surface crossed a line for me.The home was generally clean but worn and dated. The windows and blinds were very dusty, the clean towels were stained, there were occasional small moths, and the home had an odor that seemed to be covered with a strong mint scent.The property was also difficult to locate. The listing does not show the front of the building, there are no visible building numbers, and Google Maps directs guests to a rear parking lot for the neighboring property. This also caused problems with food delivery.Overall, this felt more like rustic glamping with indoor plumbing. Guests who enjoy very old homes and are comfortable with their quirks may feel differently, but the condition, navigation issues, and possibility of pests are important to know before booking.
