Cool place
House was great, spacious with all the amenities we wanted. Lots of pretty steep stairs, but that really made the place that much more interesting as the view was quite nice from the main area on the second floor and even better from the third floor.

Family reunion
Property was just as described. It was very clean and very comfortable. It was well appointed with all the things we needed. The only suggestion I would have would be to have a window AC unit in the main living area. Other than that we have no complaints we enjoyed our stay. Hi

Carpenter Ant House
We had to kill a bunch of carpenter ants in the house!!! Stairway is very narrow and steep…not ideal for seniors!! Floor is not level in a couple of spots. There were way too many Trump flags in the community for my liking!!! Don’t rent if you’re not Anglo-Saxon!!! Most of the cookware was unusable! And it’s possibly across the street from a crack house!!

We stayed here while attending a wedding nearby. We didn’t have much time in the house but found our stay relaxing. The balcony was great, neighborhood quiet and overall more than met our needs

Birthday Celebration
I booked this property for our family to be able to celebrate the birthday of my youngest granddaughter. My son and his family live in Cranston, RL and it was a fair distance to commute.
The property was everything advertised on VRBO listing and more. Beds were extremely comfortable and a cozy decor. Just wished we could have stayed a little longer to enjoy all it had to offer. I may have to plan a return trip in the future.

Beautiful river views and lovely space for our family
Our son was graduating from college nearby in Norton, and this property was the perfect place for our family. Newly renovated, tastefully decorated, and very comfortable for our small group. The river views were gorgeous, the setting very peaceful in a quiet neighborhood. The balcony on the second floor was wonderful. Comfortable seating, umbrellas, and a gas grill. It was less than a half hour drive to Norton on quiet country roads. 15” to Taunton, and Fall River just over the bridge. Grocery stores and restaurants nearby. We would definitely stay here again - loved it. The owner, Craig, was very helpful and friendly, and takes great care of this property.
