Great stay in Carytown! So close to shops and restaurants and house was clean with plenty of room. Any questions we had were answered right away and house was perfect for our trip! There were just two of us but our two teenagers could have easily stayed with plenty of room too! Will definitely stay again!!

This property was ok. It met our bare minimum needs but the owners were very helpful and quick to respond. Initially, we were lacking the basics that you would expect in a kitchen such as a can opener, peeler, measuring cups, pot holders, scissors, etc. When brought to the attention of the owner, she did respond quickly and purchased most of those items. She was very pleasant to deal with. The place was reasonably clean but could use some freshening up with paint as it is showing signs of wear. Location was nice- lots of conveniences in walking distance. The on street parking was only for a day as the city put up tow away signs due to road work the day after we arrived. Not the fault of the owner of course, but it did make parking less convenient.
