Great Stay!

I booked this location for my son who was visiting the area for medical school. He said the place was great. Very clean, quiet and safe. In an ideal location for where he needed to be. Helpful owner. Will stay here again if his travels lead him back.

A wonderful place to stay

I stayed in Sherri’s Capital Heights property in Baton Rouge. The location is nestled close to anything you’d need in Baton Rouge. Work, play, dining, shopping, exercise, it’s all less than a 10 minute drive away. Sherri was friendly and responsive throughout the entire stay. The house was fully furnished and stocked with all the necessities. I didn’t want for anything while I was there. The home is situated in the middle of Capital Heights and Steele Place. It’s an upper scale neighborhood with substantial property values and charm. The neighborhood is one that is safe to walk day and night. Nothing but positive things to say about my stay!!

About the host

Hosted by Sherri Pruitt

Host profile image
I am a local resident now semi-retired after 40 years as a real estate broker, appraiser and property manager. My vacation home was very recently professionally renovated with modern features (wood floors, granite counters, jetted bathtub, etc.). Check out my posted photos and added descriptions. I am also pleased to include many personal touches and provisions for my guests to enjoy.

Why they chose this property

"Capital Heights" is one of Baton Rouge's oldest developments of mostly vintage homes with major renovations while still maintaining the neighborhood's charming early 1900's character. My location is on a one-way street with a dedicated pedestrian and bicycle lane and within short walking distances to many popular restaurants and local favorites.

What makes this property unique

I personally manage my vacation home, so unique needs and/or requests are encouraged.
