We had a great time at the rental. It was very close to campus. The backyard was very nice, Each of the rooms had a different theme. We enjoyed the poker table.

Pleasant stay in a historic home.

House was clean inside and very pleasant to hang out in. Guests need more control of A/C. Home needs a coffee grinder. Perhaps a couple softer pillows. But besides that, we would stay again. Thank you
