Great house and location. We stayed with another family (5 kids ranging from 4-8) and it was great. House was clean and had everything we needed.I would have liked another TV but that isn’t a huge deal breaker for us. We also couldn’t get the espresso machine to work :(

We had a great time staying at the Cayuga Street house. The home is very comfy and full of charm, located within easy walking distance to great restaurants. The neighborhood is very quiet and the neighbors are fun to talk to. We spent most of our (4) day stay near Niagara Falls, and found the drive very easy each day. If you wand a great group meal, head over to Casa Antica, we had a blast. Abby was very responsive to all the questions that we had!

Beautiful oasis in NE Albuquerque
Updated home with lots of space for our family of five. Appreciated the washer and dryer in the home and the ability to use the garage door opener to go in and out. Gorgeous views from the deck and a very upscale coffee machine with a frother. The coffee lovers in my family loved it!

Lots of space - lots of fun
I stayed 4 nights with family ranging in ages from 12-78. There was plenty of room in private spaces and public rooms, so we could be together or on our own. Enjoyed seeing family that lives in the neighborhood - perfect location.

Family Reunion
We were in town to attend a family reunion and to see the sights. When we arrived, the air conditioning wasn't working. With one phone call, someone came to repair it. We enjoyed the house and the area. We walk for exercise and walked around the neighborhood. A few of us walked to the trails going up the mountain.

Hockey Playoffs
This property was close to Outpost Arena which was a plus. Our party age ranged from 22 months to 92. Not having to deal with stairs was great. This house was prefect. We really enjoyed how the house was designed and decorated. This house was very comfortable and we would definitely stay here next time.
