The owner is super friendly and very prompt in responding. The home is beautiful, cozy and clean. Beds were comfortable and there was AC in both bedrooms. The grounds are well manicured and peaceful. Off street parking and a nice little coffee bar. Highly recommend and we would definitely love to come back! Very convenient to downtown as well.

Perfect place!

We met long time friends for two nights and this was perfect for us! Two bedrooms, two baths, complete kitchen and nice outdoor space for sitting and visiting. We have stayed at many places over the years and the attention to detail was the best that we have ever seen! And it was in a quiet neighborhood away from the hustle and bustle of downtown. Highly recommend.

Great home and location. Overall there was absolutely everything we needed in this cute home. Stephanie was easy to communicate with and she provided many extras such as coffe pods, creamer, charging cords for almost any device, excellent wifi. Upstairs bedroom and bath was roomy and comfortable, stairs were quite steep we felt. Downstairs bed and bath on the small side, but we used another room for our suitcases. The location is great.

Lovely stay

This was a great place to stay in Stillwater. It was a comfortable, cute home with plenty of space to hang out for my husband and daughter and I. We enjoyed the outdoor space quite a bit, and we slept well on the comfy beds. We really loved the location, as it was a doable but slightly challenging walk to downtown - that was perfect for us!

The accommodations were just what we needed. The location was perfect, a short walk to downtown Stillwater. Loved the little "extras" everywhere, from coffee pods to snacks to a fire waiting to be lit! Thank you! Only regret is we didn't have more time.

Great house; gray location

Great house, excellent amenities and location. No central air , might be an issue for some in summer. We were there in 100 degree heatwave so it was fairly uncomfortable everywhere except main floor bedroom. But it was unusually hot, no fault of the property owner! An extra powerful fan or two might have helped, although two were available already.

Great things all around

We had a great time at Stephanie's place! It's a very cool old house in a neat neighborhood. She was very easy to work with and left more amenities than we would have expected. It was great to have different rooms to use in the house, and I wish we had more time to enjoy the fire pit in the backyard. Definitely would recommend.

Perfect!

Really cool renovated old house. I believe it was built in the late 1800's. Very nice neighborhood. Unexpected amenities throughout the house. Clean and comfortable beds. Dog friendly. Love the front porch for morning coffee as the neighborhood wakes up! Close to all that Stillwater has to offer. Truly enjoyed my stay with my daughter and her little Chihuahua. Will do it again in a heartbeat!
