Summary: Such a cool old house! This was a two family vacation; 4 adults and 4 kids ages 5 years- 6 months. The three bedrooms provided good sleeping arrangements for everyone, and the two bathrooms were very handy. Check in and check out were easy and host communicated well. We were lucky enough to meet the hosts parents who live in the downstairs apartment, and they have us some great tips on local food and attractions. (Their little dog Nellie was super sweet and everyone loved giving her some pets). The only complaints from the group were that the toilet paper provided was see-through single ply and some of the bottles of hand soap were watered down.
