Our stay at the 1926 Guesthouse was amazing. The house is beautiful and exactly as described. Our host, Heidi, was incredible to work with and communication was excellent. The check in process was seamless and the key placement when leaving the house is a great idea . The house is more than adequate to host a family or a group gathering. The kitchen is spacious and is stocked with necessary items. The handheld garment steamer is a fantastic amenity, it was a pleasant surprise to see it on the hallway table, we used it for several items of clothing! Thank you for sharing your home and all of the thoughtful touches that made our stay comfortable and stress free.

Very well decorated to be stylish but maintaining it's historical charm. Comfortable beds. Air conditioners and fans provided so it was cool. We didn't utilize the kitchen much but it seemed well equipped. The coffee and bottled water was appreciated. Overall a gem of a house.

Comfy 1926 Craftsman.

This house is so sweet but yet has plenty of room for guests. It has everything you need to spend a few days. It’s close enough to several towns with historic main streets, restaurants and antiques. We stayed I January but summer would offer even more things to do and enjoy.

Served its purpose

Was in the area for a wedding and this was close to venue. Was clean and served us well for an overnight. Would definitely stay again. Hosts stopped by to ask if it was okay to do yard work. Which was really nice of them because in reality they did not need to.
