The space
❝As a first-timer to Airbnb, I wasn't sure what to expect. Matt has clearly set the bar high for others to follow.❞

Designed with groups in mind, our home features expansive common areas, including 2 dining rooms with seating for 14 people, 2 living rooms—one of which boasts a sleeper sofa for extra flexibility—and a fully equipped kitchen that's ready to handle the culinary needs of your entire party, complete with 2 fridges and 2 stoves.


❝...the space is MASSIVE!❞

❝Matthew's place looks big in the pictures but it's even more spacious in person.❞


✔ This house was built in 1914 and has most of the original wood from that time - including the original hardwood floors and trim. (This also includes some historical imperfections!) We strive to maintain a balance between a modern look and the historical charm of this wonderful house.


❝Great place with lots of space. Owners are extremely responsive and it is obvious they take great pride in welcoming their guests❞

❝...check-in was smooth and easy with a passcode, there were 10 of us, enough room for everyone to have their own space and bathrooms, all the rooms are huge.❞


❝What a great place for 3 generations of our family to be together. Matthew had so many extras to accommodate all of us - games for kids, pack and plays for the babies, dog bed, tv’s in every room and plenty of room for all. The kitchen worked so well for family meals with plenty of cooking and refrigerator space. This is a fabulous period house with neat historical features. We really appreciated the extra supplies he provides. - so many cozy throw blankets and snack surprises in each room.❞
