This is a beautiful home and EJ has put a lot of thought into it maintaining its authenticity. Having said that, it is an old house so be prepared for beds to creak at night, etc. It’s also not the ideal house if you are planning on preparing many of your own meals. The kitchen is small, outdated, and pots and pans weren’t really clean. We had to wash everything prior to cooking. But if you have a big group, and don’t really plan on any serious cooking then you will really enjoy this super unique house. (The kids had a blast playing hide and seek!) There is also a great pizza restaurant about a minute away.
