Lovely and Historic Home

We had a great time in Lawrence! The home is very conveniently located near Mass Street and the University. We were able to walk to Lawrence Beer Co. and the Burger Stand. Despite winter storm Blair, we were warm in the house. Parking was very easy in the alley. With the winter storm, Monica sent over someone to clear the parking area of snow and we were able to get out at our checkout.We would absolutely stay again! Hopefully without a winter storm next time.

Historic home

Beautiful historic home in a great location close to downtown. Be aware that we had plumbing problems which were not resolved during our stay and that there are tenants living upstairs. Also there is not a garden or a barbecue outside. There is a lovely porch swing and the beds are comfortable.

A good way to visit Lawrence

The beds were super comfy. The bathroom supplies (towels, cloths, paper) were well stocked and nicely arranged. Check in/out was a breeze. And the close proximity to downtown was incredible. Thank you!

Great location to downtown and historic neighborhoods

Comfortable with all the amenities we needed. Our lower unit had good parking off the alley. Easy walk to the Saturday Farmers Market and our favorite coffee/pastries at Barker on Mass. definitely recommend this stay

Awesome trip to Lawrence!

We thoroughly enjoyed our trip to Lawrence and the property was absolutely perfect for our needs! It's in a great location, close to Mass Street and easily walkable to local amenities. The house was clean and really well equipped and had what I can only describe as THE MOST COMFORTABLE BED THAT I'VE EVER SLEPT IN! The washer and drier were really useful to have as we have onward travel so could travel with a full suitcase of clean clothing. Monica communicated really well and worked around our late arrival so that we could just walk right in and go to bed. We really enjoyed our whole stay in Lawrence, made even better by the great accommodation and we wouldn't hesitate to stay here again if we're headed to Lawrence.
