nice large house, generously equipped, beautifully but unpretentiously furnished and decorated - a block from the T and 15-20 minutes from downtown Boston (depending where you're headed), and a half-dozen or more restaurants within a 7 minute walk. Just perfect.

Homey

We had a wonderful 4 night stay at the Jamaica Plain house. The house itself is beautiful, as pictured, and in a very nice neighborhood with many amenities nearby. The orange line T stop is super close which makes this house a really great location for visitors who want to utilize public transportation. Woody was very accommodating and easy to communicate with via email. My only comments that might be helpful to future travelers are really unrelated to the property: - The orange line downtown stations are closed during weekends for construction this fall. This adds time to travel but can be worked around by getting off at Back Bay and walking a couple blocks to the Green Line at Copley station (and these entries are free during these closures). Luckily we saw this bulletin before our trip and it wasn't a big impact! - There are numerous great restaurants near the house (many included on the very useful list provided by Woody) but be aware that many are cash only. We found this to be common in Boston and is almost unheard of here in Houston. Again, it wasn't a big issue but nice to prepare for. I would highly recommend this property to anyone visiting Boston!

Great place. Easy access to mass transit. Great neighborhood

Beautiful home with very unique antiques yet up to date kitchen and bathrooms made it very comfortable! Close to the subway, and local restaurants are within walking distance. Neighbors are friendly. Steep stairs to bedrooms on second level. Due to the many antiques, we would suggest adults only.

Beautiful, clean and spacious house in Jamaica Plain. 5 minute walk to the convenient T line which gives easy access to downtown Boston. Owner was very responsive. House was as advertised. Loved having 2.5 bathrooms for four people. This was the perfect house for a girls’ get away. I would highly recommend this property.! Thank you Woody and Pauline.

Lovely family home with all necessary home comforts. Nice neighbourhood with shops and restaurants 5 mins walk. Easy access to t line into Boston and off road parking. Highly recommended

The property was extremely comfortable and it was a great base close to the T station at Green Street, so we had great access to all we wanted to see in Boston from North End, Beacon Street, Boston Common, to a Red Sox game in Fenway Park. In Jamaica Plain, we had great breakfasts in Evergreen and a lovely dinner in Vee Bee. Loved it all. Woody was a great responsive straightforward host.

This home was perfect for our long weekend in Boston. Having somewhere to stay that is comfortable for my in-laws is a priority when finding a home. The decor was perfect as well as all the amenities to meet our needs. We enjoyed the neighborhood feel of Jamaica Plain with its nearby pond to it’s restaurants. Thank you for making our stay in Boston so pleasant.

Lovely home in great and convenient neighborhood. Nearby T station and can walk to restaurants and Arnold Arboretum. We enjoyed every minute of our stay in this comfortable home.

Homey, quiet. Only stayed two nights while seeing Boston. So much nicer than a hotel.

The home was very comfortable and worked out perfectly for our family.

This property felt like home to us. It was very spacious, clean and comfortable. It truly made our trip to Boston that much more enjoyable!

Wonderful house and neighborhood within easy walk to whatever you need. Woody and Pauline were great hosts.

What a great place to stay. The house has great character and is in a great location on the orange T line to explore Boston, yet in a nice quiet suburb. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and the communication with the hosts was excellent! Thanks Again!

Wonderful spot! Comfortable, immaculate, spacious, and had everything we needed for a great stay to Boston. It was reassuring to know that Woody was so responsive in answering our email on how something worked. We'll definitely be back!

We (6 adults) stayed at this wonderful house the weekend of the 123rd Boston Marathon! Could not have picked a better location at our price point as the neighborhood, Jamaica Plain (JP for us locals) was eclectic and fun yet safe! We were within walking distance to Sam Adams, Turtle Swap Brewing and Doyle's bar. Most importantly the Orange T line was just down the street and got us to anywhere we needed to be. The house is super clean and beautiful with high ceilings and updated kitchen and baths! Wonderful towels and all home items you could possibly need in terms of dishes, soaps, paper products and even blow dryers! Tons of parking if you bring a vehicle though one was not needed with how close we were to the Orange line - even took this to the airport both ways! We would stay here again in a heartbeat!

Our family of 5 enjoyed spending a week in this beautiful and spacious house. We especially appreciated the 2 separate sitting areas, the 3 bedrooms and 2 full baths, the washer and dryer, the in-tune piano for practicing, the off-street parking for the days we had a rental car and also the close proximity of the subway for the days we went downtown.

Our stay was perfect from booking until departure! Thanks for providing such a great stay in Jamaica Plain.

House was charming, beautifully furnished and comfortable. We walked all around neighborhood and took the Orange Line T into town. Will definitely stay here on our next visit. Thanks to Pauline and Woody for their hospitality.

Great house and great location. We enjoyed our Jamaica Plain location and all the shops and restaurants in the area.

Visited Boston for three nights in September. Couples weekend getaway for sisters 50th birthday. Wanted to spend the weekend in a house together vs. hotel. This location exceeded our expectations. The house is amazingly furnished, clean behind belief and most of all comfortable and welcoming. The hosts were great at communicating. The location is one block from the subway, which will get you anywhere you want to go. Couldn't be more pleased with our stay.

This house was everything you could ask for and more. Modern comfort (cannot beat central AC in the summer!) with unique furnishings. Lovely, comfortable, and impeccably clean. The beds were very comfortable, the showers/bath were really spacious with good fixtures. We were very happy to have the driveway for parking our over-sized rental car in the city. Restaurants (and great ice cream!) were walking distance. The Arnold Arboretum and a lovely pond are also very close by. Franklin Park Zoo is about a 10-minute drive, our kids (4 & 7) had a great time there. The location was ideal for us - so close to downtown and also for visiting relatives and friends south of Boston. The owners, Woody and Pauline, were extremely responsive and helpful, and generally lovely people to deal with. We would really love to come back here the next time we come to Boston!!

We loved this place and the owners are very easy to communicate with and very accommodating!

location was great; the house was great

This home was a highlight for our trip. Having a parking space for the car - three bedrooms for five of us - great cable system - updated kitchen - bathrooms and elegant decor was more than we expected. SO MUCH BETTER than a Hotel. PLUS only appprox. 5 miles from downtown Boston - with the Orange 'T' a blocked away AND for those baseball fans -Fenway park is 3 miles away. I recommend this place to anyone

I would definitly recommend this house

The house is perfectly situated blocks from the Orange line to Boston. Taking public transit is a great option to driving around and paying for parking in the city (we paid $42 for 2 hours at one of the lots!). Enjoyed the Immigration exhibit at the Prudential Center which also afforded us a 365° view of the city. Also did the Duck Boat tour (our laid back purple bearded guru guide was hilarious), Harvard Natural History Museum (amazing collection), Boston Museum of Art (barely saw a fraction of the place) and saw the spectacular Fourth of July fireworks show from the MIT side of the Charles River. In Jamaica Plain, we walked a couple blocks to get a late night ice cream fix at JP Licks, drove over to Centre Street and had Cuban food at Old Havana (ropa vieja!) and Dominican-style empanadas at Pikalo (gigantic!). The house is well-furnished with spacious areas and a lot of interesting collectibles, including a longbow resting in a corner. We enjoyed cooking in the well-stocked kitchen and playing board games until all hours of the morning at the dining room table. Overall, our family had a wonderful experience and recommend your house to anyone staying in the Boston area.

We stayed at this wonderful house before a cruise with family. The rave reviews were right. This home is surprisingly modern for a century plus. 3 bedrooms 2 and 1/2 baths worked for 7 of us sleeping there. We had a family dinner one night for 14 without a problem. We strongly recommend this home away from home.

Great location for public transport. Lots of useful information supplied and close to good restaurants. Could not fault it in any way
