My senior citizen cousins and I stayed at the Davis house for three nights. It was LOVELY! The architecture, furnishings and amenities were even nicer than listed in the ad. The price was great, as well. William was very communicative and even left us a couple of welcome gifts. Best VRBO stay EVER! Thank you for sharing your home.

This property was a delight from beginning to end. It is way bigger than it looks in the pics, the beds are SO comfortable, and it is in a beautiful neighborhood walkable to a little downtown area. The kids loved exploring the beautiful yard. The kitchen was stocked like someone actually lives and cooks there, none of the sparse beat up equipment you often find in other rentals. My only caution is to make sure everyone in your party is steady on their feet. The stairs are quite steep and narrow, in the way that antique stairs are. We would love to stay again when in the area!

We had an outstanding stay at the Davis House while celebrating a family wedding. William is a very kind and accommodating host! We had the pleasure to meet and speak with him on our first night there. The house itself is absolutely beautiful and feels like a museum. We had fun exploring each room. The gardens are incredibly lovely and the porch swing was so fun! The neighborhood is charming. There is a nice park two blocks away which we used to throw the football around. Easy walk to downtown too. We had absolutely no complaints and would very gladly book this house again in the future! The driveway is indeed a bit tricky but just go very very slow while backing out. Easy check-in and check-out with the house key. Don’t hesitate to book this historic property!

This was by far the nicest place we've ever stayed. The owner has obviously put a lot of love and thought into this house. He's very helpful and responsive. We especially loved the kitchen and the master bathroom. There are a lot of quiet places to relax and hang out. The front porch and the grounds are beautiful. It's a very nice, quiet neighborhood, too.
