This home was the perfect fit for me, my 2 brothers and cousin who united here for a weekend in December. The four of us hadn’t been together in the same place for 7 years and this home, with its 5 bedrooms, 3.5 baths, spacious kitchen, large dining room, wide wrap-around porch, gardens and firepit was perfect! My brothers and I are cooks and the kitchen’s large island and gas stove made preparing meals together a breeze. We found rosemary in the garden for our olive oil dipping sauce. There were plenty of dishes, silverware, and serving utensils, coffee pods and creamer and everything you needed including toiletries and cleaning items at your fingertips. (However, if I were staying a while, I would bring my own pots and pans.) The beds got a thumbs up for their linens and overall comfort from everyone (and we age between 59 and 71, so that’s saying a lot!). The primary suite on the 2nd floor, has a very large walk-thru closet/room on your way to a very well-appointed bathroom. Although there is a second full bathroom on the 2nd floor for two other bedrooms, you can also open up access to the primary bathroom to the other 2 bedrooms if needed, while maintaining privacy for the primary. (You might also want to note that all beds are on the 2nd and 3rd floors and that there are 2 futons and 3 single beds in the mix. Three bedrooms’ beds are able to accommodate 2 people). It was in the 30’s and 40’s when we rented and, for an older home, it was very warm and cozy. We also noted the separate AC units throughout the house, pretty much guaranteeing comfort in the warmer months. The home is about a ¾ mile walk to the adorable town where we loved RAR Brewing for appetizers and beer – and I also liked the vibe at High Spot Restaurant. I also recommend checking out the Episcopal Church with its Tiffany stained glass and the Harriet Tubman statue just across the street. I would recommend this property as a short or long-term rental for families and family gatherings (ideally with older children since there are a lot of stairs and there aren’t great site lines to keep track of little ones), groups of friends, and certainly people who like to cook and break bread together. It has been tastefully updated from top to bottom. I’ve rented a lot of homes – including internationally, and I’m a neatnik, design-fussy, but not at the cost of being functional. This property pretty much has it all and is one of the top rentals for me – so 5 Stars it is!
