Chris is a superior host! We really appreciated the extra soft sets of towels and blankets, delicious coffee, teas, water bottles, and snacks. He was very responsive, and gave us lots of information about activities in the area. This basement apartment has a very cute, quiet, private yard, filled with flowers, grass, candles, and plenty of seating. It has a small, screened in porch entrance, with plenty of easy, parking. Everything was clean and well maintained. We could, of course hear the upstairs occupants, but the back entrance was very private. The ceilings are low and the bathroom and shower were VERY small, the appartment was tight for two adults and two teenagers, especially my 6'3" husband! The surrounding area is great to explore the beautiful parks and trails, and of course the falls. The yard is so quiet, but right across the street are great bars, restaurants, ice cream shops, and interesting retail and antiques shops. It's a great location!
