This totally exceeded our expectations and made a wonderful day even better. We came in the day before my baby shower to prep. The kitchen had everything we could have needed and then some. The beds were super comfy, with large tvs in each room. Everything was so clean and well organized and the host was great. The crowning jewel was the backyard space where we held the baby shower. We had plenty of space to layout the food, with power to accommodate the few crockpots used. There was plenty of spacious seating to accommodate everyone and even had the firepit going by night's end. Did I mention the variety of charging cords for both iphones and droids? That definitely came in handy. So glad we chose this location and would absolutely stay again.

Everything was perfect. The owner was incredibly communicative and helpful. I had never stayed in a rental house before and was pleasantly surprised by how well equipped the kitchen and cleaning supplies were. I hosted a small 80th birthday party for my grandmother and everyone raved about how great the house and yard were. I couldn't be more thrilled with my experience. The park next door and gas station across the way were also great features.

Anthony is an excellent host. This beautiful, and well appointed, home is a pleasure to stay at. This is my second stay and I look forward to many more. My two dogs love being able to run in the spacious backyard - which also features a canopy covered entertainment/relaxation area...where I sat and enjoyed my morning coffee.

Perfect Stay

We had stayed at Anthony's property in 2023. It was nice then but now it's spectacular. So much has been added to make your stay a memorable experience. We had a blast making S'mores outside. FYI Takeout from Tavern (Millponds) down the road was A.

quaint house with a great yard amenities

house was a little smaller than we thought, but the 4 of us fit comfortably. overall, it was a perfectly fine stay, no issues. rated 5 stars because there were no issues and anthony was a great communicator. the primary bed was pretty sunken in, so that could have been a little better. and the only thing that was didn’t necessarily enjoy was that the majority of the cabinets and all the closets except those downstairs were locked, which led to us having groceries and bags spread through the house, but those are the only things that we thought could have been better. overall, still a 5 star stay
