Prettier than the pictures
The VRBO we stayed in was absolutely outstanding and far exceeded our expectations. It was even better in person than it looked in the pictures! The attention to detail in the craftsmanship and design was remarkable, making the entire home feel luxurious yet comfortable. The kitchen was a dream to cook in, especially for our Thanksgiving dinner—it had everything we needed and was so well-organized. It made preparing a big meal stress-free and enjoyable.
The kids couldn’t get enough of the game room, which kept them entertained for hours. There was also more than enough space for everyone in our group, allowing us to relax and enjoy time together without feeling crowded. Every corner of the home was thoughtfully appointed with high-quality furnishings and decor, making our stay not only comfortable but truly memorable. We can't wait to come back!

Family of the Bride - wedding
We rented this house so that we (brides parents) and our families could have a comfortable place to stay. It was perfect. The house was better than described and spotlessly clean.
I do not know where to start on describing how beautiful this house is. Such a historic Beaty and the decor was fantastic. I only wish we could have just stayed and enjoyed the beautiful house more. We were at wedding events most of the time and only there to crash I. The evenings. We want to come back just so we can enjoy it more.

Historic Getaway
We had a wonderful stay in the historic Duncan House. The home was beautifully renovated with modern bathrooms and updated kitchen. The original floors in the kitchen and solid wood pocket doors in the dining area provided a glimpse into the home’s history. The original stairs gave us our daily workout with detailed woodwork. We enjoyed a lovely place to stay as we visited family in the area!

Stunning Victorian
This house is a Victorian gem with many original details including woodwork, transoms, and 14-foot ceilings. Spacious rooms, including bedrooms, where a family or friends can spread out for privacy or gather for meals, games, and conversation. Excellent attention to detail with a fully equipped kitchen with everything needed to fix and serve meals, bathrooms that have been beautifully renovated, and comfortable beds and plush linens. The location is a short walk to the historic downtown and a short drive to retail and restaurants near the interstate. Clean, comfortable, convenient, and interesting, this house surpassed our expectations.
