Great host!
Great house!
Great neighborhood!
Casey responded quickly as you'd hope a good host would. We really appreciated how easy it was to check in, how well-stocked the house was when we arrived, with plenty of hand soap, paper towels, toilet paper, etc; it's a bummer to have to go out to the store upon arrival, so we were thankful to be able to start our vacation immediately! The bedrooms are comfortable, with great sheets and blankets and plenty of space too, great towels and washcloths in each of the bathrooms. Everything was clean and ready to go when we arrived.
The house is beautiful, well-appointed and tastefully decorated, with a comfortable layout for our large group. My husband and I took the two bedrooms in the basement for us and our 2 year old, and we gave the upstairs 3 bedrooms to my sis and brother-in-law and my 3 nieces. Comfortable and plenty of space for everyone, but we especially loved the basement space for watching movies, playing cards, and coloring with the girls. The back patio was awesome in the evening, but we also loved hanging out on the front steps, watching the comings and goings of the neighborhood as the sun went down.
The neighborhood is awesome, and the house was located perfectly for us: super close to the grocery store, across the street from a great neighborhood park, and a very short walk to several major streets with great restaurants, ice cream, shopping, yoga/workout studios, everything we needed and more. We walked to the bus and the train too, and were able to get to anywhere we needed to go in the city. We loved that the house is on a relatively quiet, neighborhood street, with young families, professionals, older couples walking by; we felt very much a part of the neighborhood.
We had a fantastic trip: fun, memorable, and most of all, comfortable, thanks to Casey and her beautiful house. We would love to stay with them again next time we are in town!
