Easy and prompt communication with host. Lovely historic home with plenty of room. Conveniently located to places we needed to visit. Would stay again.

We did enjoy our stay in this home! The hostess was very communicative and quick to respond to questions. The historic home is beautiful and the town is lovely. There are just a few things that could be improved for a 5 star rating. The beds were comfortable but the couch in the living room is really uncomfortable. Bedside lamps would be a big plus as well as some basic cooking condiments, like cooking spray and basic seasonings to make scrambled eggs for instance. Unfortunately, the bath tub drain would not stay closed to fill the tub so we were unable to utilize the bath tub. Also important to note, if traveling with children or light sleepers, the road the house is on is very loud from the constant traffic. It seemed to be worse during the week. Also, the street side parking is on the opposite side of the road so we had to cross the busy street to come and go which was a bit of a safety concern with kids.

The house was beautiful and located right in the heart of the town of Philipi. We were able to visit 3 state parks within 30 min drive as well as walk to dinner, ive cream and live music in town. Unfortunately, unbeknownst to us, the house has active water/roof damage in the front bedroom. I believe we should have been made aware of this prior, so we could find another location for our weekend getaway. We travelled with 3 young children, 2 of which woke up every morning with nasal congestion, watery eyes and coughing. The wall where the water damage had occurred had visible mold and damage to the infrastructure. The entire house also smelled mildewy/moldy due to this issue. Luckily, we spent most of our long weekend outside on the back patio, in the backyard and travelling to nearby parks. Once home, my families symptoms resolved. I would rent again once the property has been properly removated and cleaned. I notified the property owner the minute we entered the property. She was fully aware of the damage. I was not offered a resolution nor money back given my families respiratory inconvenience.
