House was so very clean and fit our needs perfectly. Close to all shopping and events. Host came by and introduced himself and even got us a couple of folding chairs to use at a downtown music event. The bedding, pots & pans, towels were all top notch.We would stay there again.

Great place

The owner was very accommodating and easy to communicate with. The place was just the ride size for our family and very clean and close to downtown- within a very short walking distance. We stayed 2 nights and were in town to bike the trail of the Hiawatha. No issues and would happily stay there again.

This was a wonderful house with everything a person would need during a stay. Lots of extra touches, books, etc. that were very interesting. Loved the decorating. Comfortable beds. Close to all of the downtown activities and restaurants. Very quiet neighborhood.

Great Home and Adorable Town

The home is delightful, well-appointed, charming and old fashioned but upgraded where you most appreciate it (in the bathroom and kitchen). It doesn't look very big from the street, but is actually quite large. Very comfortable.

Absolutely Wonderful!!

I have stayed in many VRBOs and this was my best experience. Elmer was a wonderful host, we wanted for nothing. In fact the extra touches were many. The house was immaculate and the location was quiet and close to everything. We will definitely be back!

Great little house with excellent hosts!

We loved our stay in Wallace! The house was clean and had everything we needed. We never used the TV but enjoyed the books about history of the area. Elmer and Corki are the best hosts - friendly, responsive, and knowledgeable. The location is perfect - quiet but close to the bike trail and only a few blocks to restaurants and shops. This was our first trip to Idaho. We'd love to come again.

Little city with huge character.

We stayed at this VRBO for a few days while we went to the Hiawatha bike trail. The home is full of history of Wallace, ID and is an inviting home. The home is supplied with everything, but I would suggest females bring a blow dryer. I would definitely stay her in this cute city and quaint, historical home.
