Perfect family escape

We enjoyed our stay and spent time out on the front porch just catching up as we sipped our coffee and planed our days. The location is very convenient for heading out to the north shore and when heading down to the downtown area. Good restaurants and coffee shops are nearby. We had an enjoyable stay. The kids loved the house.

Excellent accommodations with comfy beds, plenty of space for 7 adults to gather or have their own spaces. The pool table was a real winner and provided loads of fun and entertainment! We were impressed with the cleanliness, excellent condition of the vintage house, and all it had to offer. The home provided an added bonus to our overall experience! Highly recommended. The hosts were great communicators as well. Bravo!
