Very nice weekend. Clean, quiet neighborhood, comfortable bed, updated kitchen and bath and located in the heart of Watertown. Enjoyed our morning coffee on the enclosed back porch. We never cooked there but everything we needed for a breakfast was provided. TV easy to use. Very pleasant all the way around.

Nice little property, conveniently located. Really enjoyed Watertown and not a far drive to the wedding venue in Clayton. Great for a thousand island mini vacation. Place was nice with a lot of personality and a lot of nice perks from the host. Would strongly recommend!

Welcoming Home and Host!

The charming property is a very welcoming place to stay. Clancy made sure everything was perfect and that we had a wonderful overnight stay. We loved the decor and the ambiance. We will come back for sure but until then we hope many other guests will stop by this beautiful property!

We enjoyed staying at Clancy’s home the two weeks we were in Watertown visiting family and friends. The neighborhood is extremely quiet and beautiful. Clancy lives upstairs so it was very easy to talk with her if we needed anything. We would definitely stay here again when we visit the area!!

My husband and I had a very pleasant day in this home. I loved the peaceful neighborhood. The owner of this rental is very pleasant and congenial. I have actually never had the opportunity to meet the host of a rental before. She was very helpful and easy to contact and responded quickly to inquiries. She made the home very pleasant to stay in with added little niceties like a welcoming basket of goodies. Everything was provided in the home that we needed. Including all linens, hand soaps, coffee, coffee maker, any kind of kitchen utensil that we needed was available. I would definitely rent this place again if I was in the area. Thank you for a very nice stay.

I had a wonderful stay. I had been in Watertown so many times before but Clancy opened my eyes to many things I didn't know about Watertown e.g history, parks, music and related venues. Can't say enough positive things... Highly recommended.

Watertown Historic Gem!

We drove up on a tree lined street with beautiful historic homes, and were delighted to find we were staying at this GEM! As beautiful on the inside as the outside - well appointed and welcoming. We could easily have stayed longer, the accommodation was great! Clancy was available to us immediately to answer questions. HIghly recommend!

Clancy's Apartment

I really enjoyed my stay at Clancy's apartment. She was a fantastic host and communicated well. She left lots of tasty snacks and drinks in the apartment for guests and the kitchen was well stocked with everything you would need, including coffee and fixings. The location is perfect; just a short walk to the downtown area and an easy drive to the highway for access to the lake and river areas. I would definitely recommend Clancy's apartment for your stay in Watertown.

Delightful respite!

We needed a Covid free environment as our travels were taking us to elderly family in Canada. What we found was a beautifully appointed first floor flat in an charming old house that had everything we needed. The owner was gracious in welcoming us to her house and to Watertown.
