I was recently in town because my son was attending an event at Brown, and I thought I'd try AirBNB. I would guess that it only took 10 minutes to get from Brown to Chip's house. It was close enough, yet off the beaten path. The home really is as Victorian as the pictures show, with lots of neat antiques to peruse.

My room and private bath was spacious and comfortable. I especially liked sitting outside and reading and enjoying the quiet and the nicely manicured greenery about the house.

Chip made an amazing breakfast that I thoroughly enjoyed.

All in all, my first AirBNB experience was very positive and I thank Chip for providing a fun, charming and yet affordable, place to stay during my visit.
