The house was perfect for a Christmas family gathering. A complete kitchen and bedrooms for everyone. The location right in the heart of Excelsior was great for shopping, restaurants, etc.

I had our leadership stay for a 2 day strategic meeting and the house and amenities were amazing. We loved having the bedrooms with their own on-suite. Everyone at our meeting said it was the best place ever. Thank you

We rented this beautiful house and added carriage house for our large family to attend my mom’s 90th Birthday celebration. We had 13 adults and 8 children - age 4 to 17. Really liked the layout and decor. Kitchen was great and had just about everything we needed. Kids loved the “secret stairway!” Because of the snow and cold, we were unable to take advantage of the outdoor areas 😢. We Needed extra sheets and towels because of the kids, which we couldn’t find on site. Property manager was very quick to respond to all questions and needs, but for $750 cleaning fee I expected it to be cleaner. It was about a 8/10 and there was a couple of things that needed to be fixed. ( 1 slow draining sink, loud noise from toilet after flushing which actually woke you up if used in the middle of the night, picture frame that fell off the wall and another that was about to, and the griddle for the amazing stove needs oiling.) Some things we told the manager about and some we just took care of ourselves, including clearing the snow from the stairs and walkway to the back door and Carriage house. It would have been nice to have rock salt because the outdoor steps were very icy. Because of the elevation and stairs, I would not recommend it for very elderly with mobility issues. Considering all factors, it worked great for us and there were little extras that were nice - a bottle of wine and note, personal bathroom items and lots of coffee, which we needed! The location was outstanding! Plenty of amazing restaurants within walking distance, shopping is great and several nice parks in the area. We would love to come back when it’s warmer weather. Overall, I would give it a 9/10 with management response of 10/10.
