This place was lovely. It was very warm and welcoming for our visit. We initially booked for (4)days but after our son got all checked into his dorm. We decided to leave a day earlier. Checking in and out was very easy. I would definitely rent again. Thank you for having us.
Very nice, well cleaned, cute cottage. The neighbor has a quiet period from 10 pm to 10 am. It does make it very quiet but maybe a little restricted for vacationers depending on your tastes.The rear entrance is very challenging for anyone with disabilities.
Would stay again, but a few issues. Comfortable and welcoming. Loved the character of the house!
My mother and I booked the house for a weekend getaway for three of us, my father/her husband included. The pictures are a bit decieving in size, especially in the hallway to the bedrooms and bathroom. Bathroom is real small, with the shower being pretty narrow. The place was cleaner than most hotels, but a couple small things were missed (a pretzel underneath a chair and soap scum on the shower rack). It was a very quiet neighborhood and house, except for a train not far away that passes through a couple times during the day. It passed by twice on our last night, and I guess it was because of delays from a storm. Speaking of the storm, my mother got pretty worried when it got rough during the night, and we had no where to go since the basement door is locked by a deadbolt. Wish there was at least a list of nearby emergency things, like hospitals, storm shelters, and etc. Also, when the AC would kick on and the wind got bad, the basement door would rattle and sound like knocks on the front or back door. A slide bolt would probably fix that, as we put a kitchen chair up against it and it stopped. Be careful if you have small children; water is VERY hot! It will scald if you are not careful, my dad and I nearly scalded ourselves on accident the first night. It was a good location, as we were real close to the town's main streets and shops. Shower has removable, or moveable, head for anyone who cares. Mostly cosmetic stuff could be fixed.
Upon arrival everything was as detailed. Very charming home and comfortable and cozy. The location was very quiet but convenient to all things we wanted to do. Commication was great and made for easy arrival. Thanks again Tina
Location was great to visit Berea College. This is an older home, with character. it was as described and very clean. We will be coming back to Berea periodically for the next 4 years and will always check to see if dates are available first.
Two of us were planning to stay here, but my sister was unable to make it due to a fall. The bed was comfortable, the kitchen was well appointed, and the wi-fi worked great.
The house was very clean and all the instructions were clear. It was close to campus where I was visiting my kid and close to a bagel shop (native bagel) that I really enjoyed! Lots of room to relax, a table to work at and a yard to enjoy the sun.
The house was clean and the beds were comfortable with plenty of extra blankets available. Among the VBRO amenities listed were television and stereo. I did not find a stereo anywhere and there WAS a television, but no cable connection. This was disappointing, as I assumed "television" meant I would be able to turn it on and watch programs. The outside lights (front, side and rear) didn't work; I assume light bulbs needed replaced. The listing stated there was a city ordinance prohibiting on-street parking; apparently the neighborhood didn't get the memo as there were at least 12 cars parked on the street at any given time. I loved the keyless lock/entry system. The heating system worked really well. The hardwood floors were beautiful. The toilet was a tad bit loose; it shifted a little when you sat down. If you plan on cooking, a few pots/pans are provided, but bring everything else as only salt and pepper are provided. Overall, it was a nice clean house in a quiet neighborhood.
We had a great time visiting for Homecoming weekend and our 10 year college reunion. The house was clean and well equipped along with a great location, close to the college and downtown! Would definitely stay again when we come back!
This property was charming and close to Berea College, where both of my children are students. The inclusion of the story of the owner's attachment to the property was very sweet and a nice bit of history. We enjoyed it!
