Great property and the location was perfect. The house looked better in person which is seldom the case. Extremely clean and just a few short blocks to the heart of Ferndale. The owners were very clear about the check in procedure and responded to all messages within 30 mins. Would highly recommend this property. Great trip/ecperience

Great Place; Great Location

Perfect spot in Ferndale. Clean, convenient, lovely. House had everything we needed. My kids loved it - one called it "heaven" the other said it was "so cool." I recommended to the friends we were visiting so they can pass it along to more friends and family.

Fabulous Ferndale Getaway

This clean and updated home was located just two blocks from many popular restaurants and bars. I appreciated the cute front porch with string lights and kitchen complete with dinnerware for guests. Owners reached out but did not intrude- I hope to return soon.

Our new home away from home in Ferndale

Stayed with our 3 year old and 6 year old. House is very clean and comfortable. Furnished with new quality pieces and baby proofed in some areas. Nice touches like kids plates etc and enough k-cups for the week. Beds are comfy. Backyard is fully fenced and beautiful. Couldn’t ask for more. Hosts very responsive.
