This house was a true gem. The house is charmingly decorated, and everything is bright and new. Kris has clearly designed it down to the smallest detail and this is also how she treats her guests. She is very available and responsive and clearly wants her guests to have an enjoyable stress-free stay. We had a wonderful relaxing time here and I would highly recommend this property to others

Great house. Very clean, super cozy and well provisioned. Everything I needed for an extended stay of 9 nights. The neighborhood is fine, not far to UC/Short Vine, OTR, etc. It has a large and well stocked kitchen. The bed was very comfortable. I wish the parking situation was a bit better but I parked on the side street without issue. Would stay here again.

We had a wonderful Christmas stay at the house. The house was decorated beautifully and there was every amenity we could ask for. The beds were all super comfortable, and there were plenty of towels and kitchen supplies. We walked to the zoo for the Festival of Lights and overall had a wonderful stay. Kris could not have been more welcoming or responsive. 12/10 experience.

Enjoyable Comforting Stay

There were so many great things about staying at this property. Relaxing atmosphere, with nice size yard for the puppies. Definitely the most comfortable bed that we have slept in away from home. Small amenities that just make life easier if you forget to bring something. Got a horrible sunburn and was able to use the aloe plant in the house and it helped so much. The owner of the property was fantastic, even when my dad showed up 3 hours early. He happened to be at the house and they talked for quite a bit. Highly recommend staying at this property!!
