Lovely apartment

The apartment is clean, comfortable, nicely decorated and attention has certainly been paid to the needs of guests! There was a basket of snacks on the kitchen counter and a basket of fresh toiletries in the bathroom to help guests cover anything left behind at home. We will certainly stay here again!

Great Weekend Getaway!

We had a great time at the apartment! Very clean and organized! Nicely decorated with good utensils and dish ware. Enough for a setting of 8 people. Very accommodating with the laundry and checking in and out. Charger, HDMI cords, and UNO cards were available for use. There was even a mini self care station in the bathroom! Perfect as we forgot pain reliever. So helpful this time of year due to allergies. Beds were comfortable and apartment and neighborhood were quiet. Definitely recommend staying here!

This cozy two bedroom apartment was a perfect home away from home while exploring Deborah and attending our son’s track meet at Luther. The location was great, the amenities were comfortable and welcoming. The space was spotless, and the decor/design so tasteful. Pam was wonderful to work with and provided us with all the little extras that made us feel cared for! We will definitely book this property again upon any return to the area. The washer and dryer right outside the apartment came in so handy after a rainy day at the track meet! Thank you, Pam!
