With family from points north, south and west the more than adequate sleeping arrangements made our stay lovely. There is a fully stocked kitchen and laundry. Decor is appealing to most!

We had 3 generations under one roof for the VCU graduation. This home was close to campus, stores and restaurants. We had other family join us at the house to hang out together. The kitchen was a perfect spot for us all, the 2nd floor porch was great for views of the city. We had a great time staying there while we were in Richmond.

This was an amazing property and perfect for our trip. We had a group of 10 guys in town for my brother’s bachelor party/golf trip. It was in a great location close to The Fan where we spent most of our time while not on the golf course. Would definitely book again.

We were so glad to find this spot, and it was a great fit for our group of 13 and a very easy process! Location was excellent for us, Leslie gave great parking directions, and we were even able to get in early. Beds were comfy and there were plenty of towels, blankets, and pillows to go around. We had a great time!

Property Manager was very accommodating and communicative. The space is nice, new, spacious and spotless clean. Beds were comfortable. For us it was the perfect downtown Richmond location, close to all the venues we had to go to.

The home was plenty large for our family who met in Virginia from various states. The parking area was very convenient and allowed for multiple vehicles. Although we brought all of our bathroom supplies- I thought it was great that there was shampoo, conditioner and body wash provided in all bathrooms. The paper products and trash bags are a bonus as well because that isn’t always offered. We played uno and enjoyed the large table. Thank you!

The property is in a safe neighborhood not too far from 95 and there was off street parking for all three of our cars to fit easily. Everything you could ever need is stocked- sheets towels toilet paper soap etc. the property manager is one of the best I’ve ever worked with- responded to me very quickly every time I reached out. She also handled an issue around the garbage disposal being broken very quickly and generously. Highly recommend!

Me and my friends really enjoyed our stay here. The house was clean and perfect for a larger group (something tough to find in Richmond). The house is a quick walk to parts of the Fan and an easy Uber to Scott’s Addition for the breweries or downtown.

The house was prepped perfectly for a weekend stay. In addition to nice linens on the beds and towels, there were multiple rolls of paper towels, dish soap, sponges, trash bags, etc that provided us with everything we needed to enjoy our stay. House was clean overall and would be great for a large group. Walking distance or quick uber rides to Richmond restaurants and nightlife. Thanks Leslie!

We were a smaller group for what the house can accommodate, but we absolutely loved the place. Every detailed seemed thought through and felt really convenient. Short Uber rides to any areas we wanted to visit and the process was just so easy and comfortable.

Not bad

Not bad

Good communication with renter. Was able to get in 2 hrs early. However, no TV in the house. Kind of hard to believe a house not having atleast 1 tv. House was clean, great number of beds. All chairs in the living room were broken. Renter did communicate that the previous person damaged the couch and a new one was coming on Monday. When we got there realized all the chairs in the living room were broken. Would have been nice to be offered a little money back for the inconvenience. Not complaining but good business would have been to atleast offer.

This is a great location! We were able to walk to around VCU’s campus and to our planned meal outs. The kitchen table was the main area we spent most of our time. Lots of games and meals took place there. The beds are so comfortable and the bedding was great! We really enjoyed the space and the porches. Parking was great and easily fit 6 cars. Leslie was really easy to communicate with and flexible with our trip. We highly recommend using this property!

Perfect place for our large group!

This home was absolutely beautiful and perfect for our large group! I rented this house to provide a place for my team to stay during our training. There was more than enough space and my team raved about how awesome the house was after their first night. There are plenty of sleeping spaces, games, amenities for any size group of visitors. There is both street parking (pay attention to the signs) and parking in the back, which was a major plus. Ms. Robertson and the house host did an excellent job at making sure I had all the necessary information needed for a comfortable stay. Thank you for the outstanding hospitality. I will definitely consider booking this home again and would recommend to any visitors 100%.
