We had a great stay at Doug’s place. We were a large group, a few different families, around 12 people, and the house was able to accommodate all of us. It’s a bit older and serves as their primary residence and has a lived-in feeling, but I don’t regard it the same way as I would just a vacation rental. A few highlights: the upstairs and downstairs feel very separate, which is great for noise. From upstairs, we couldn’t hear the people who got up early, and vice versa. The new master bedroom upstairs is very nice and spacious. The kitchen was well stocked, there was an elliptical to keep us busy when weather kept us indoors. There were board games and separate spaces even for social activities. Doug was an excellent communicator and went above and beyond. For the price and size, and it being NYC, we were so grateful to have found this house.
