The Nifty Fifties in a Quiet Location
Beat feet over to this nifty place located on a quiet, dead end street. This gem is sure to help you and your baby get your relaxation on! The original bitchin’ kitchen and bathroom (updated for today) will take you back to the “Leave it to Beaver” days of yesteryear! This joint is the bee’s knees with lots of space to spread out and enjoy! The lower level bar area is the perfect combination of Doo Wop and Malt Shop with its pink & black accents and boomerang counters! This place is definitely NOT dullsville and offers 50” TV’s to watch any flick. You’ll have it made in the shade in the quaint backyard sitting area. So, don’t be square, pack your threads and get your wazoo over to this pad now! Please be respectful of this beautiful home. Quiet time after 10 pm. Dogs are allowed but NO cats. PLEASE pay attention to your pet, let it out and clean up after it so other guests may enjoy a clean home in the future.
The vacation home is air-conditioned and features a kitchen and 2 bathrooms, and there's space to spread out with 3 bedrooms and a dining area. Guests can enjoy a Smart TV and stay connected with free WiFi. Other standard amenities include a washing machine, a sofa bed, and a fenced private yard.

Such a cute house!
Our family of 5 stayed here 2 nights. The house is so cute! My kids loved learning how to use a rotary phone. Ha! Communication from Kathleen was great. The house was in a safe location and very clean. A wonderful stay. Thanks for sharing it with us!
