Perfect location and size for our family! Will be staying here again for sure!

Very familiar with the location. Great apot to base out of with small kids for walks and adventures in and around town.
Two true bedrooms with an Alcove using a curtain as a devider. Wasnt ideal for a last minute guest, but we made due just fine. Didnt have any need to interact with the hosts as everything went off without a hitch.
Lovely momma deer hangs out just off the deck in the back that you can see from the wonderful, open, well-appointed kitchen.

Great accommodations! The location is great and the home was very comfortable and appointed.

I was pleasantly surprised to stay in downtown Winthrop. I expected some noise but it was relatively serene. I appreciated the cool air on very hot days. Restaurants close by…
The house was nicely laid out with a unique modern/country vibe. Lots of colors and patterns. We could close doors between two sides of the house. My 30+ kids could enter from a different door so not to disturb us (parents) after we went to bed. Kitchen was nice even though I didn’t get to use it.

Funky layout but lots of space for a couple and a family of three. Spacious kitchen and bathroom. Comfortable. You’ll hear the salon during the day if you’re there.

Loved the place. Very clean and well stocked with misc items. Would stay here again.

The Waring house made a perfect retreat after a long day of skiing. The in-town location is almost impossible to beat. You are less than a minute's walk to downtown Winthrop and yet it was cozy and quiet inside.
As other reviews noted, the kitchen is well stocked for most any dish you'd like to make. All the bedrooms were well furnished with extra blankets and comforters. (We did not use them as the heater was plenty good for us). The front room also has some wonderful historical displays of letters and newspapers found during the remodel for you to read.
One thing to note for winter rentals (possibly summer): The house can be separated into 2 living areas. This initially confused us since the house notes referenced the two places independently. Don't be confused by the binder notes. Our rental, "The Waring House", included both spaces.

Our family of four stayed in this lovely historic home for a long weekend while attending the Great Outdoor Classic hockey tournament. It is conveniently located in town and walking distance to the rink. With a fully equipped kitchen, we had the option of cooking our meals. We also put the dryer to good use, drying gloves, hats, jackets, and ski pants. At night we could gather together and watch a movie or spread out into our own private spaces to read, watch TV, and play on tablets. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay!

Property was very comfortable and well appointed.
Could have used games and pillows on beds that were not so high, thick.
We had trouble with the automatic coffee maker which ended up leaking over the counter. Instructions for it’s use would have been helpful and a pour over drip coffee filter.
