Absolutely loved this house! It's a perfect getaway for a small group! I would give it 5 stars except the bedroom with the washer/dryer was a little hot. We did go during a heat advisory, so we understand it's difficult for the house to cool down. I think another vent to that bedroom for the summer heat would be awesome! We appreciate the extra fans, though! Overall, the house had everything we needed and was great! The area is beautiful too. We would definitely rent here again!

Adorable home with an amazing backyard and location
Super cute home with so many nice touches throughout. Loved the spacious fenced in backyard with outdoor amenities (bistro lights, fire pit and games). Neighborhood is very nice and walking distance from square and so close to Southwestern if you have a student there like we do! Will definitely return! Oh and hosts were very accessible and helpful!

Great home and Great location!
This home is perfectly located and perfectly appointed! My teens loved the outdoor space with the the ping pong table and dart board. My husband and I loved sitting on the back deck with a glass of wine each evening. We really appreciated the dog-friendly fenced yard. The kitchen was nicely stocked with essentials and the coffee bar was so amazing! We look forward to staying here again!
