8.6 out of 10, Excellent, 20 reviews
"Some trouble getting in but could have been some user error. The lock is a little different and it spins so can be confusing. The owners checked in quite a bit until they could get in. The only other trouble was the second shower had no hot water. Had to use 1 shower for everyone. Only there for a long weekend so unable to be fixed that quick, understandable. Owner was very respectful and responsive. The home was very clean and tidy. Seems like everyone was comfortable in the beds as well....

Private En Suite Large Master Bedroom With King Sized Bed

"These accommodations were extremely comfortable, quiet, and conveniently close to Burlington’s downtown & waterfront areas. We felt as if we were in a luxury hotel.

A “cozy” bathroom & shower arrangement, but everything was immaculately clean, and well-appointed. We’d gladly return if we were ever in the area,...
