We had a great time at Steve's place. Firstly, it's amazingly located, particularly for families with children: there must be five or six great parks and playspaces within a 10-15 minute walk. The neighbourhood is lovely and quiet, with wild turkeys and rabbits aplenty to keep the kids amused! Secondly, the house has so much character and space, and we felt very at home there. Thirdly, Steve was fantastically quick at responding. If we needed something, he'd get back to us immediately. Fourthly, it was so helpful to have off-street parking. Fifthly, because of where it's located, it's easy to get into downtown Boston (either by car or by public transport: and there's a BlueBike docking station right outside!) and also to places like Walden Pond, historic sites such as Lexington and Concord, beautiful New England towns like Ipswich, and there are some great beaches within an hour's drive. Steve is a real local, too, and gives great recommendations for places to eat (although sadly many of those were closed when we we stayed there because of Covid), places to see and things to do. Since we left Steve's place, our children have all said how much they miss it and wish they could go back! Thanks Steve for everything!
