We had a tremendous eight-night stay at Michael's place and would happily stay here again!
Michael is a lovely, generous, responsive host, and it was easy to communicate with him. It's a unique property and we loved our time in the carriage house. It was super comfortable for two people and a dog. Plenty of places to sit and relax, both inside and out. The gardens are really fun, and we had permission to help ourselves to the "harvest," which meant tomatoes, zucchini, squash, chard, and more in late August. Comfortable bedroom, nice shower, cute kitchen, and even a projector and TV screen.
The Highland Neighborhood was easy to walk around. Just a few blocks away are the lovely 32nd street shops and restaurants (and Sunday farmers market) and the Tennyson street cute commercial district is just a little further. Even Sloan's Lake is close by for an evening walk. The area around the house is quiet and peaceful, and parking is easy.
We initially had a few missing things (some bedding, dish soap, etc), which Michael quickly remedied. I appreciate that the place comes with things like shampoo and condition in the bathroom and oil, salt, and pepper in the kitchen.
