Beautiful home in Rochester!
Our family stayed for three nights for a local swimming meet that our 10yr old daughter was competing in. Tom (owner) was wonderful from the beginning. Communication before, during, and after our stay was awesome. Ken (listing manager) was also very helpful and informative during the process. The house was beautiful, clean, and well-stocked. It was also conveniently located close to great local restaurants and grocery stores. Check in and check out was very smooth. We couldn't have asked for better hospitality and care during our stay. As this swimming event takes place yearly, we will definitely look this property up for future stays. Thank you so much, Tom and Ken!!

Fantastic!
This property is hands-down FABULOUS! It is in a convenient, safe location with all the amenities you could need… and more!
Everyone involved (owner to concierge) is personable and professional, and the loft is decorated as if featured in a magazine. We would absolutely stay here again.
