We booked this location for a family weekend for our party of 6. Communication with the owner was superb! The curbside historical charm hides and fantastic renovation that is an amazing balance between both modern and period appropriate. The layout, design and furnishings were stunning! Main living spaces an open and comfortable while also offering petite nooks and crannies to explore, like the laundry area, coffee bar and downstairs bathroom. The bedding is exquisite-I’ve never slept as well in any other VRBO or hotel! Two doors down is a fabulous bakery and market that is the perfect place for brunch! It was too warm to sit outside in the patio area but with family right around the corner-I look forward to booking again in the fall where cooler weather will allow us to enjoy the outside areas as well. This is a gem and a secret I would love to keep all to myself!!

The house was very nice and charming. We all enjoyed our stay there. It had everything we needed and the beds were very comfortable. Loved walking to local shops and restaurants on the lake.

Come enjoy this absolutely fabulous home! It is spacious, immaculate, meticulously restored and updated (especially that kitchen—wow!), beautifully decorated, a great location and all of the comforts of home. Kelly’s help and hospitality were equally off-the-charts fantastic! She went above and beyond to ensure that my husband and I + our 3 grandchildren had an extraordinary experience. We had high expectations, and the Historic Blume Cottage and Kelly far exceeded our expectations in every way. We were sad to leave, and look forward to coming back. Thank you so very much, Kelly!

We loved this property! We brought our young family to this home and it was perfect. Very clean, cozy and we had great communication with the host, Kelly! We will definitely be back if we stay in the area again.

Stayed with lady friends to attend 3 rivers festival in Covington. The house was exactly what we wanted… lovely interior, 3 bathrooms, clean, room to spread out, comfortable cozy beds, in the heart of Mandeville, quick drive to festival, we walked to dine, drink coffee, take in lake views, shop, etc. — perfect 👍! Would rent again in a heartbeat 💗

The home was perfect! Beautiful kitchen (perfect if you love to cook like myself) Rooms were very comfortable, clean and well stocked with towels. We could walk to the waterfront. My kids loved the backyard, plenty of room to play. Highly recommend this home!

Beautiful property nicely located near shops and restaurants. We have friends who moved here some years ago and love visiting Mandeville any chance we get. Lots of hidden gems and delicious food. Kelly was a great host and responded very quickly to any of our needs. Thank you Kelly!
