Great spot for a big family!

This was a great stay for our family of 6 to spread out and access Boston easily, from the super safe and cozy town of Milton! Lots to do and see. Laundry facilities were great to have to clean up the sports equipment too!

Weekend reunion

Seven of us for a family reunion. Great location. Easy to zip up to Fenway Park to see a good game, and also down to the beach. Really good food options. Everything about the house was easy. Having great parking was key. Best checkout I’ve ever had on all of my VRBO stays. I’d definitely stay again.

Good Place!

The host was very responsive and helpful. The living room was comfy; the bedrooms were large and the beds very comfortable; the outdoor spaces (porch, patio, and yard) were amazing. We would stay here again. I do think that it's important to say that the bedrooms are all upstairs, and the stairs are very steep. For us this was not a problem, but we did have my elderly mother sleep on the couch downstairs rather than have her go up and down them. (She was completely fine with that.)

Weekend getaway

Had such a great time last weekend. Host is accommodating and quick to respond with questions and concerns. The house is in a great neighborhood near a playground which my daughter enjoyed. Fully stocked kitchen which saved us so much money instead of going out to eat.

Very clean and nice, we were here for the super hot muggy days and the house was perfectly cool and thankful for theyre AC 😅. Communication was fantastic. We had an unexpected hospital visit while here and they were very helpful. We would most definitely would recommend staying here. The town was super nice and it was also really nice to be able to stay outside the city away from choas.

Don’t hesitate, awesome !

We loved staying here, so convenient to Boston sites and cape cod, MBTA right down the street. May be small but we had 5 adults, 3 yr old and 1 year old, worked great! A beautiful, safe neighborhood, with true New England charm😀. The porch, patio and yard with kid’s equipment was a real bonus! Yes the stairs are narrow and steep, but so are most homes in New England! The owner truly cares, and is delightful! We were there for a week and it was perfect!
