The house was just as described in the listing and had everything we needed. It is situated on a lovely gated estate with a large private deck in back overlooking an expansive lawn. The upstairs beds were very comfortable. We met the owner by chance, and she was super friendly and accommodating! Thank you!!
We stayed here for a weekend in the fall to use as a place to stay outside of Indy. It was a beautiful spot, especially with all the fall leaves. The owner was super responsive to any questions I had beforehand. Would definitely recommend!
Thank you so much for such a lovely home to be our home base as we returned to Richmond from all over the country to celebrate our 30th reunion at Earlham College! We loved the space, the decor and the communications with our host.
We were there for our son's wedding. The kitchen was a little unorganized. Clothes were left in the dryer from the previous stay and we had to buy dish detergent. We would recommend mirror in some of the bedrooms because when you have a lot of people there it was hard to get ready. Other than that, it was a nice stay.is hard to get ready.
We came to town to visit family and this little cottage did not disappoint! Itâs well stocked, in a good area, and has beautiful surroundings. The owner was easy to contact when I had a question. We would definitely stay here again!
Property very clean and cute. Decorated as a a fairytale cottage. Our biggest complaint it was not advertised - The cottage had a spiral staircase to second bathroom and 3 bedrooms
We are seniors and the staircase was hard to navigate. The only other complaint no bedroom had a bedside lamp or light. Each had a stand but no lamp. This made it difficult to see at night if you needed to find the bathroom. But over all a nice house nice location
This property is beautiful and the house was very clean.
The only thing I recommend is for it listed as
handicap not friendly.
I could not go up and down the stairs because I have some severe back problems. The stairs are steep and winding.
However because there are 2 bedrooms and everything I need on the floor we entered, I had no problem staying there.
It was a very nice place and we enjoyed it very much. The location is convenient to downtown Richmond. We had no problem finding it. The owners were super nice about having the gate open for us.
Overall, it definitely was a 5 star place.
This property is awesome! Beautiful home with everything you need. The owner was very easy to reach, responded immediately, and worked with us when we needed to make last minute changes. We totally enjoyed our stay and highly recommend this place :)
The house was clean and very cozy. We had a great family time there. Enjoyed the bottle of wine that was at the house on our arrival. Would suggest new steps from the parking lot or maybe a handrail.
The owner did not know that we were coming, even though I received a confirmation email after booking. I also received a confirmation of our stay at this location several days prior to our arrival. The property was not cleaned before our arrival on Sunday evening. I contacted the host through VRBO and stated our disappointment with the cleanliness. The beds were obviously slept in and the towels were not replaced from the previous guests. My family stayed at a hotel that night and the host was very nice and refunded the cost of my hotel. The cottage was very nice, but the stairway to the lower level needs to be addressed. The spiral staircase railing is loose and a screw is missing. It just needs some maintenance to be safe.
The proâs: The property was perfectly located and had plenty of space. Walking in felt comfortable and relaxing. Not super modern but nice. We had a party of 7 and we didnât feel crowded at all.
The cons: the spiral staircase was very difficult to navigate especially with luggage. Three of the five bedrooms were downstairs and that staircase was not easy on us. There was an alternate outside entry but the stairs were slick to navigate at well. The downstairs bathroom didnât appear to have any outlets so that meant we had to go to a different room to complete getting ready.
Overall⊠it was a nice stay and suited us very well. We appreciated the complimentary bottle of wine the owners provided as well. It was a sweet gesture.
We did a girls weekend and loved our stay. The property was close to everything we planned, and also very peaceful and relaxing! Our hosts were great and made it very welcoming.
If you like history this is good place to stay.
Very beautiful setting for being in town. While sitting outside we saw two deer in the yard.
Peaceful place to stay.
We really enjoyed our stay. Check in was super easy. There was plenty of the essentials in the house (shampoo/conditioner/body wash/t.p.) so that was nice. There were 5 adults that stayed here, 2 couples, and we all had our own space if we needed it and could chill together as well. It was a nice house, in a quiet neighborhood so that was good. Really our only complaint was about the beds. My husband and I tried out 2 different ones and they were super loud, firm, and uncomfortable. Like you couldn't move an inch without the bed squeaking. The other couple with us said their bed was loud and not very comfortable either. We got very little sleep so that was unfortunate. All in all it was a nice place but it would really benefit from having nicer mattresses.
