Myself and 7 other friends stayed in the orange house over Labor Day weekend, while attending a gaming convention. We had a fantastic time - the house is spacious enough that we were able to get all 8 people accommodated without issue. There are several bus options nearby for getting into town, as well as a supermarket and commercial district with some bars and restaurants. Joyce was very hospitable and gave us tips for local destinations. The house looked just like it was portrayed online, and there were plenty of extra pillows and sheets for all the guests.

That being said, I would hesitate to recommend this to groups that might be a bit rowdy, or stay up late. We received two warnings about our noise levels while we were in the house: once when we were up playing board games until midnight, and the second when we had come home from bars late. As noted in the house rules, the basement and cottage (both on the same property) are separate from the house, so you may be in close quarters with others who may not have the same late hours.

All in all, we enjoyed our stay and Joyce has a beautiful, classic home - but for our group, personally, we will probably look for a home with more relaxed noise and late night rules when booking next year.
