Family Trip
Beautiful home! Has 1 bedroom downstairs, which was easily accessible for my grandfather. Had my not quite 2 yr old niece with us and there was a high chair we were able to use, which was a wonderful surprise. Property management were quick to respond to all our questions!

Great Host
The house was very nice and suited our purposes perfectly. Our host, Garrett, was fantastic. He kept in close touch prior to our arrival plus he checked in with us more than once during our visit to make sure that everything was going well. Nice touch!

Family together for Graduation
Great place. Location was key. Fenced in yard for our dog. She loved the birds and squirrels. Beds were comfortable. House was spacious. Suggestions:Let renters know when grass is going to be cut. For the dogs sake. And to be able to pick up any dog Poop.More towels. Hubby is 6ft3in and towels were very small for him. Thank you so much for allowing us to rent this home. Had a great time!

Comfortable
We enjoyed our stay in Frenchtown, walking the historic streets, and spending time in old St. Charles which was a short walk away. Our 1800s house was very confortable and provided plenty of room for the 6 of us plus our dogs. The kitchen was well stocked with dishware and cooking items. Beds were comfortable. It was a great home away from home!

Short Getaway
All of absoluteloved the house, easy to get to and close to everything.We did think that for a house this size and the numbers that can sleep in it, there should be more bath towls, bath mats in the bathroom and more than one dish towel in the kitch or let renters know to bring these items. Overall,, it wwas a 10 and we are coming back in June..close to

The Epicenter of a wedding weekend
Our son was married this past weekend. We chose this house based on proximity to the church, rehearsal dinner, other out of town guests and the wedding venue. Over nights were just right to accommodate our multigenerational family, a bedroom on first floor alleviated my parents from using the stairs. We did need to send guests through the down stairs bedroom to access the only first floor bathroom.
Kitchen was well appointed, I cooked breakfast, lunch and dinner for our family, amd had some out of towers join us for some meals. I was able to find needed pots, pans, bowls etc to make large meals, especially enjoyed the stove with the vent hood. The large island was the core of the buffet style meals. Could use a second spatula and more than one non stick frying pan but I made due with a large cast iron skillet and cleaned the spatula between food flips. Coffee / beverage areas were well placed and stocked. Refrigerator was good size and we kept it full, cupboard storage was ample to store all the snacks and dry goods. We brought paper plates and paper towels,
Dining room was large with extra chairs and was used throughout the day for eating and games.
Upstairs bedrooms were oversized and comfortable. Would suggest ceiling fans in the non master bedrooms, we brought fans as we saw pics of the rooms. Would suggest a trash can in the bedrooms. Found spare batteries in the laundry area, did not find triple a batteries for remotes, added it to our first grocery run.
