Great value for location

Location is great if you want to walk Excelsior shops, restaurants, dock and beach. Ample sleeping and hanging space (three floors) for 7 friends though it’s more ideal if you’re eating and hanging out (no communal indoor dining space for 4+ and few mugs and glasses, quality knives, etc.).

A lovely weekend in Excelsior for a wedding

This house was perfect for 6 of us (3 couples) who were attending a wedding. Not too fancy, just clean and cute. It’s a bit spendy for my norm, but for the upscale area it was in it was the the most economical choice we could find. Easy to run on the trail and walk into the cute downtown.

Girls Weekend

Great location, quick walk to downtown Excelsior. The house is super cute! I was worried it would be a little crowded with 9 of us girls, but it was perfect. My sister ran into some of the neighbors and said they were so nice! A few things that would be a nice addition in comparison to what I’ve seen at other rentals I’ve stayed in are a larger full length mirror, brighter lighting in the main floor living room and bathroom, extra sleeping pillows and an organized central location for extra towels, sheets, etc. Most of closets had a random extra towel or sheet here and there but most of them weren’t folded so we didn’t know if they were clean or dirty and ended up doing laundry. I also was hoping for a more detailed instruction list on how to clean before we left, there were only instructions for taking out the trash. Overall though, I would recommend staying there and probably would again!

Nice location

Was a nice place to call home for a bit and enjoy the Excelsior community. The home had plenty of towels and decorated very cute. Plenty of items to make a few small meals. The only thing was on a busy road and heard a lot of traffic but did get used to it after awhile.
