What a real “gem” of a place, loved the mid-century vibes alive and well. Property felt secure and comfortable, backyard a perfect place to relax with the pool (a plus for a northeasterner in late winter!), and the locale perfect for getting around. The host was very ready with any questions and had nice extra touches ready for our stay like a well-kept kitchen supply, soaps in the bathrooms and plenty of extra towels, though I singlehandedly demolished their entire supply of facial tissues due to a head cold (sorry, Ron!) We look forward to visiting again thanks to the comfort offered here and will look to stay again. Thank you, Ron and Julie!

The pictures don’t do it justice. It’s a beautiful home, full of thoughtful, artistic details. Super clean. Easy to access, quiet street. Great pool and lounging chairs. Plenty of room for a family. Was just myself and my freshman Wildcat. Was a perfect place to land before checking into dorms. Caught a beautiful sunset too!
