About the host

Hosted by Susan Byers

Host profile image
I'm a native of Fort Wayne but I love to travel. I've stayed at lots of properties and it helped me decide to become a host, so I can provide a great experience for you!

Why they chose this property

I've lived in this neighborhood most of my life in several different homes. This is one of the most sought after neighborhoods in Fort Wayne because it has such a neighborly feel and the historic homes have character. There are several parks in the area and lots of people out walking. Plus it's centrally locate, so it's easy to get just about anywhere.

What makes this property unique

It's a cozy, comfortable house and I've tried to supply everything I could think of that you could possibly need. We welcome families and dogs. We love to take our dog with us when we travel so want others to have that option also.
