    Great location in proximity to downtown. Large outdoor deck to spend time outside. This unit is on second floor so will need to climb stairs.

    The inside of this home is eclectic - very fun to explore. The beds are comfortable, and the place is super clean. The kitchen is a bit small.

    Really cool property! The upstairs suite is designed in a fun, interesting way that makes it ideal for a single person, couple, or a family. Loved my long weekend here!

    This is the 3rd year in a row that my brothers and I have had an extended weekend at the KEEP. It truly is a perfect place for a long weekend. The location is ideal. The open area to hang out is amazing. We have gotten both the upstairs and downstairs each time. Hopefully we will be back again next year

    We rented this upstairs apartment with the downstairs unit. Beautiful place. Two bedrooms and could easily put others on a couch. Small kitchen, but we used the full kitchen downstairs. Really nice.
