Host Liz is responsive and very kind. The house is quaint with a historic feel, and I fully enjoyed my stay. The old windows all around are wonderful, providing light, cross ventilation and a beautiful view from the dining area. The kitchen is fully equipped with everything you might need, although there is no dishwasher and the stove requires a grill lighter. The washer and drier work well. The house smells fresh despite its proximity to the river, which I appreciated due to my mold allergy. The shared grounds are spacious and tranquil, with a swing set that my grandchildren loved and my personal favorite: 2 adirondack chairs set overlooking the river, that my 8 yr old granddaughter and I sat in to paint watercolors. The wiring is upgraded with lots of surge protectors provided. There are just a few problems I should mention: 1) My over 6' tall son-in-law had a problem with the bed that is advertised as a "king", but is in actuality 2 twin beds pushed together. At 5'3" I had not been aware of this, but twin beds are shorter than king size, and he was very uncomfortable sleeping with his legs & feet dangling. 2) There is no air conditioning as advertised. Mostly the cross ventilation and multiple fans spread throughout work well, but there were a few days and evenings when the house was uncomfortably hot. 3) The old floors might need to be checked by an engineer (?) for stability and safety as they are not level, & in some places (esp. under the tub and upstairs) quite shaky.
