Loved the artwork throughout the home
10 / 10Outstanding·Nov 2024
Jane's house is beautiful and full of character. With trees all around and a short walk from a waterfall, this is a perfect getaway from the city. Jane and Christopher were very available and happy to help above and beyond.

We had a lovely stay in a beautiful old historic house, the fireplaces were well stocked with dry wood and it was every bit as cozy as we had hoped. Jane was very communicative and it had everything we needed.
6 / 10Average·Oct 2025
This house is lovely - beautifully decorated and cozy. My complaint is that Jane entered the house when we weren’t there with no communication which felt an invasion of privacy. Additionally, there is a man who lives downstairs in the property who is the caretaker, but you can hear everything he does very clearly (and he talks on the phone loudly) from the second bedroom. My daughter could also see his lights through her door and finally she had to come into my room to sleep without interruption. Additionally, when we returned Saturday at around 8pm the door was locked and we hadn’t been given keys by the caretaker (Jane told me that the doors were never locked - which might have seemed unusual, but we live in a small town where people also do not lock doors) and since we kept our valuables with us we felt ok with the owner’s rules. Being locked out led to a confusion of phone calls and texts, but we were in the house in fairly short order. I didn’t entirely appreciate that Jane stated that I might have accidentally locked the door (I didn’t, how would I even do it without the key?) and omitted the important detail that she had been there that afternoon. It was a bit kooky, overall.
