A Great Place to Stay!

We were here for just one overnight. We found our stay to be very comfortable, in a quiet neighborhood, with plenty of room. We would stay at this home again if we were in the area.

Perfect Stay For Waucoma Event Center

The stay was absolutely perfect! My bridesmaids and I stayed for my wedding and getting ready. Perfect location, hosts are amazing and go above and beyond, the upstairs where the twin bed is in that nook is the PERFECT spot for pictures of dress and getting ready.

Comfy 1926 Craftsman.

This house is so sweet but yet has plenty of room for guests. It has everything you need to spend a few days. It’s close enough to several towns with historic main streets, restaurants and antiques. We stayed I January but summer would offer even more things to do and enjoy.
