Boys weekend with my 2 sons and 2 grandsons. The property and location were great. Perfect for a group, with plenty of space

We loved our Mother’s Day weekend getaway at the firehouse! It’s in a great location and we were able to walk for coffee in the morning and lunch. The host is really responsive and the house meet all of our needs! The two parking spaces were great to have being in city! We are looking forward to staying there again!

Barn doors falling off tracks. One toilet unusable on second day and not fixed during our stay. Broken shades. Layout makes nice photos but unpractical in many ways.
