10 / 10Outstanding·May 2026
This house was perfect for a weekend away. The house had all of the little things that you may need. Mei was great to deal with as well!
10 / 10Outstanding·Apr 2026
We stayed at this home for a spring break trip with a family of 6. The fenced in backyard was perfect for my kids (youngest is 2) because there was a lot of room to play/explore and a fence to keep them from wandering off. We had a fire in the fire pit every evening! The location is great. Everything we wanted to do (Maymont, Belle Isle, Science Museum, Carytown) was within 10-15 min drive. The beds were extremely comfortable and we had everything we needed for a family stay (stocked kitchen, laundry, 2 full bathrooms).We parked on the street out front because there was always a spot.I highly recommend this house to another family looking for a Richmond home-base :).
10 / 10Outstanding·Mar 2026
The home is in a wonderful neighborhood and was exceptionally pet-friendly, which made our stay even more enjoyable. It was stocked with everything we could possibly need, and Mei was an incredibly responsive and thoughtful host throughout our stay. We truly appreciated our time here and hope to have the opportunity to stay again. Thank you, Mei!
6 / 10Average·May 2025
We had a good stay with a group of friends, and the house was clean and as described. Unfortunately, we were there for one night for a friend’s party who lives in town, and our entire stay was flavored by the parking situation and communication of that by the owner. This property has both a house and a second building for rent, and apparently only one parking space is allowed per unit. That wasn’t in the listing, nor the check-in rules, Mr the marked parking spaces behind the house, and it was very disappointing while we were on our way to our friends house for the event we came into town for to get a call, asking us when we would be moving our vehicle. We pointed out the issue, which the owner claimed to be a technical issue with the listing, but again it was in their written check-in instructions as well. I assume they will get this corrected, and it will be clear to future people, and really there was plenty of parking on the street and it should be a non-issue. It was just a bit disconcerting to have to sort this out while we were trying to enjoy what we came into town town to do.
