From the time we booked this property, our grandchildren started referring to it as "The White House" because of the similarity of the front façade. This was built as a governor's mansion. It is an historical home filled with period décor. This was a great place for large families--lots of room to spread out with privacy. Situated in a beautifully landscaped cozy wooded hill in a quiet residential neighborhood. Plenty of easy parking. Amazing in-ground swimming pool (the kids loved it!). Two tennis courts with fencing. Well stocked modern kitchen with new appliances and granite counter tops. Lots of supplies including bed linens, bath towels, pool towels, paper products, detergents, shampoo and conditioners. Spacious bedrooms with king size beds. Library with huge wrap around leather sofa in front of a big smart TV (kids loved this too!). Laundry room with not one, but TWO sets of modern washers and dryers! Host was responsive via texts. Just a few MINOR negatives: When we arrived, all the thermostats were set to 80 degrees. It took a while to cool things off. Could have used more hand towels in the bathrooms. Outside pool and tennis court lights did not work. But like I said, these are minor. In summary, I would highly recommend this property! We had a blast!

Our group of life-long friends enjoyed our relaxing few days away. The weather cooperated so we especially enjoyed the large, clean outdoor pool. Thank you for sharing your property. (We were a group of 8 women in our 60's)

We celebrated a family birthday with 6 adults and 4 children. The house was very clean and well stocked. The beds were all great. We used all the bedrooms on the second floor and there were plenty of bathrooms for everyone. I can’t say what the bedrooms in the basement were like because no one used them. The pool and the cabana were OUTSTANDING!! We were outside most of our stay. We couldn’t get the kids out of the pool. We also enjoyed a little fire each night along with s’mores. Everyone had a great time!

This is truly an amazing piece of property. To stay in a true mansion, and learn more about its amazing history, made for a memorable experience for us all. Even though we experienced some A/C issues early on; our host Alise couldn’t have been more helpful in promptly responding to this situation, and any other questions we had during our stay. The family had a great time, and especially enjoyed the amazing pool area.

All of us had an amazing time, ages 6-78 years old. Everyones favorite was probably the pool, as it was very warm the week of the fourth. Everyone had their own space in the home and enjoyed all of the fine detail in the mansion. Even though the home is in a neighborhood in the city it is surrounded by trees and shrubs that make it feel very private.

The house is historic and beautiful! It was well appointed and equipped. Because of the thick plaster walls we were all able to have quiet and privacy. The pool was so awesome, although we didn’t find the hot tub. I loved having plenty of beach towels! I also appreciated the plastic cups that we could use at the pool. And the cabana at the pool, as well as couches and tables provided us with GREAT shade. The three year old in our family loved the pool, the two staircases, and the basement. There seemed to be a problem closing the basement shower door. The library and living room offered so much comfort and the beds were incredibly comfortable.

Family members from around the country gathered to celebrate a 90th birthday. There were 19 of us and we enjoyed all parts of the house and grounds. Outdoor fun included pickle ball, swimming in the heated pool, lounging under the pergola at the pool, and evening campfires. Indoors was perfect for all ages. Spacious kitchen, comfortable sofas and chairs in living room and library, private bedroom suites with comfortable beds, an excellent preservation of an historical mansion!
