"We had a wonderful weekend away in this perfect size apartment! Our car didn’t move the entire time we were there! We walked to the farmers market, dinner, brewery, morning coffee and even took in some art at the sculpture park. All within walking distance! The building is lovely with incredible views. Plenty of space, clean location, and very comfortable! Additionally; if you’re looking for a yummy and elegant but not snobby dinner spot I would recommend Django! It’s just a block away and...

Cozy 3BR Home by Ingersoll Restaurant Scene

2.0 out of 10, (1)
"The pictures the host posted of the property are deceiving. This rental is not “charming”, it’s very very old & not well-cared of; the stairs to the property in the back (which is the way you are instructed to enter) are treacherous. There isn’t lighting outside to maneuver the stairs and I’m sure they aren’t up to code. You’re met with a hanging chain that hits you in the head upon opening the back entry way door. The main floor toilet had been used and was not clean. There were bugs throughout...
