Perfect!
Three of my girlfriends and I stayed at this beautiful home for four days. It’s better than the listing. Details inside the house are beautiful. Everything you need is there. The host was amazing. As a matter of fact, one of my friends left her e-reader behind. The host notified me and then mailed it back. My friend had it within two days. If I could give this house a 10 rating I would. Beds were super comfortable. Everyone got their own room which is really nice. I would definitely go back.

Fabulous wedding weekend
We stayed at this beautiful Victorian home in Providence. Everything was perfect for our family to have our wedding weekend for my daughter’s wedding in Providence. The home is immaculate, so It is an old home with many modern touches. Everything you could possibly need in this home was available to you our host. Bruce was wonderful and very accommodating to all of our needs. We will definitely be back.

Perfect Stay in Providence
We rented this place for a Providence College basketball game and it was spectacular. The espresso machine they got makes a mean espresso. Also we did run into a little issue where I had left my coat with my keys in the pocket at a bar. Bruce was easy to get ahold of and promptly got his tenant to move his car so we could get one of the other cars out and resolve the situation. Place was clean, from the listing it looked like it lacked TVs but there were plenty. Beds were comfortable. Defintiely recommend!

Visit for Thanksgiving
We visited Providence to celebrate Thanksgiving with old family friends. Our adult children and spouses joined us. This house was an old home with beautiful, large rooms and modern, well equipped kitchen. The beds were super comfortable. It was in a lovely section of town, easy distance to Thayer Street and good shops. An excellent stay.
