Penny was absolutely hands down every bit of a gracious host. The space was inviting, centrally located and peaceful. There is everything you could need for your stay. We are looking forward to calling Decatur our home soon enough and looking forward to the hospitality like Penny offered. Comfortable bed, fully stocked kitchen, refill of anything that you use. Just come with your suitcase and enjoy the weather, sun and neighborhood.

Great place!

My husband and I stayed here with our 1 year old. The home is clean and cozy. Checking in was effortless. The home is in a quiet location in between two lovely neighbors. Plenty of space for our baby to roam around - with an added retractable gate near the basement stairs for safety! Highly recommend if visiting the area.

We had a great stay at your property while attending a family member funeral. The following are my comments: Rug in dinning area needs to be cleaned because it had an older musty smell. Wood floors throughout house should to be mopped and waxed.

Visiting family on vacation

Our family enjoyed this historic home near Milliken University. It was so nice to have a place to "come home to" during our time in Decatur. This home gave us plenty of room to comfortably relax and I enjoyed having a kitchen and dining room for meals. Our host responded promptly to any inquiries. I would definitely consider staying again. Thank you!

Lovely & Comfortable Victorian with Great Amenities

The house is nestled in the historic and quaint west end where no two houses look alike. My favorite things about the house? The screened in sunroom, back patio, updated kitchen….basically everything…It’s beautifully decorated throughout AND comfortable. The host, Penny, has a wealth of information about Decatur. She was incredibly helpful and down to earth. This house and owner are a rare find😁!
