ileana and philip’s mt. tabor hideaway tiny home was a great summer stay for our little family of three. ileana and philip are super prompt in replying to messages, and even upgraded the wifi for us before arriving for our covid WFH needs.
at 850 square feet the tiny home doesn’t actually feel tiny (as many previous guests have mentioned). the layout of the house is extremely well thought out. it is light-filled due to the many well-placed windows, so it never feels dark or small inside. the full-sized stove with double oven and full-sized fridge (plus the cutest mini dish washer) have been absolute essentials considering all the meals we’ve been cooking. the downstairs bed is in fact, super comfortable — something that, lMO, rarely happens, and has made being away from our own beds all the more easy. having mini split AC units in each bedroom and in the living/kitchen/dining area was also a big plus for when temps reached over 90F. when it was hot but not AC-hot, the ceiling fan in the living area was also a major bonus. but the best thing was leaving the front and patio doors open for a wonderful flow of fresh air.
this mt. tabor hideaway is located on the most dreamy street — it is peacefully quiet and dead-ends directly into mt. tabor park, which basically becomes your extended back yard. i can't stress enough how amazing that is for both quick jaunts or longer nature walks, accessible in a matter of a few minutes walk to the end of the block. visiting the mt. tabor community garden a block away is also super cute.
highly recommend!
