Exactly what we needed.

Stayed to visit family in the area. Very easy access to area roads, groceries, fuel, restaurants. The "theme" for the rental was an extra bonus because my spouse rebuilds cars - so we enjoyed that as well. It was the perfect place.

Wonderful Cottage

This cottage is clean, beautifully decorated, and has everything we needed for cooking. There is a sweet, private patio area where we sat and had a glass of wine. Although we didn’t need it, the hosts supplied personal care products. We did enjoy the coffee provided! We hope to rent this home when we return to the area next year.

2nd stay. Our new "home away from home" super peaceful and comfortable. Owners are very thoughtful with the little pluses, like that comforter, Qtips, tylenol, cocktail on the house. The details make it perfect. Will be back! (hubbys said if I give to good a review he is worried it won't be available for our next trip😆 )

Wonderful hideaway centrally located

Traveling alone, I was cautious about safety. This sits in a lovely residential area just steps across the Maple Street Bridge and old town Auburn. Great location. And the unit was marvelous, immaculate, and great attention to every detail. It’s clear the owners are proud of the quality. The entire unit was very elegant, comfy and cozy. Lovely little patio, always well lit each night as I returned from visiting with friends and family. Highly recommend. I’m coming back for sure!

Lovely stay in Auburn

My husband and I stayed here for 5 nights to visit friends in town and so he could run the CIM. The house had everything we needed to feel comfortable and at home. So many thoughtful, quality touches: kitchen with nice appliances and cookware, large comfy couch, the most comfortable bed I've ever slept on, many pillow options, clean modern bathroom with eco toiletries, even a large umbrella for the 1 rainy day. We walked to downtown easily within 10 minutes and the neighborhood was quiet for good sleeping. Very easy to communicate with hosts as well. We highly recommend this home and plan to return in the future.

Oh my, our stay at Dean's Garage was just amazing! The property is extremely well kept, the kitchen a dream to work in and is very well stocked and organized, everything you need but fresh food! There is a very large TV in the living rooom area, and a great desk area to work at. Do emember your passwords to use on the TV to sign in for apps like Netflicks, Paramont, etc. We couldn't have asked for anything more in amenities. It also has its own gated entrance, and a sweet, little sitting area which we took advantage of for coffee in the morning and afternoon high-tea. The owners were very attentive to my questions which was greatly appreciated. We would highly recommend this property and hope to return in the future.

A great place to stay!

Our first impression was WOW! It was better than the pictures. Everything in this place is like new, and high end. The living space is well thought out, roomy, comfortable and efficient. And nicely decorated. They provide everything you might need. The bed is great, the bathroom and shower too . Even the outside patio area is nicely landscaped, cozy, and private. The hosts are great! They messaged me a few days in to see if we needed anything. (We didn't) After we left, we realized I had left my ROKU attached to their tv. They kindly shipped it back to me, and wouldn't let me reimburse them. I told my wife several times, if I ever needed to build a small home, I would copy this one! We'll definitely stay here again when visiting Auburn!
