Great apartment for a small family in a great location. Parking was behind the home near the entrance door, which made it more secure and a lot easier to load and unload. The host was very kind and communication was perfect. They let us slow charge our electric vehicle overnight with a nearby outlet.

Just like Grandma's

Cozy place, great location, within walking distance to the museum. It does sleep, 6 but probably not 6 adults. The beds are pretty small. It worked great for my family of 6, but four of us were teens/kids. Host was fantastic. We would stay here again in a heart beat.

Best Basecamp Ever!

This host is amazing! She was quick to respond to our questions and so helpful and willing to meet our needs. The host had a wonderful welcome basket and a binder to help us get to know the area. The kitchen is well stocked. The couch pulls out so you could sleep on it or relax after a long day of hiking. I missed that there wasn’t a TV when I booked, but we streamed on a laptop. We would LOVE to stay here again. We highly recommend this place.

We loved our visit to the farm. We enjoyed seeing the baby goats. This was a great location as we visited several National Monuments in the surrounding area. The kitchen supplies are limited but we were able to make do with what was available. We probably cook more than most people.

Just what we needed

In the middle of a 5 week camping trip we enjoyed the showers, beds, and washer/dryer. Nicely priced, clean, quiet, and allows pets. Don’t miss the Edge of the Cedars State Park.

Comfortable family setting with a good location for day trips in and out of parks and monuments. The apartment is very private with good parking. The Edge of the Cedars park and museum is at the end of the street. We were there three days and could have stayed longer with more to do.

Perfect for what we needed

We came to town last minute for a funeral and needed a place to stay that allowed our dog. We didn't spend a ton of time in the unit but felt very welcome and were happy to have a place to stay. The owner was very good at communicating and helped us to add on an extra night last minute and answered the questions we had.

It is a typical basement apartment. There are two bedrooms, a bathroom and kitchen. It is modestly furnished, and comfortable. The bathroom and kitchen are due for an update.
