Just Perfect!
This beautiful, darling yellow house in Salem is THE best vacation home we have ever rented (and we have traveled all over the world). It is immaculate, very well appointed with everything you need in any situation. The house itself is beautifully designed with comfortable, high end furniture that is cozy and great for hanging out. Even though it is a historic home it offers all the modern amenities that you are looking for. The location and gardens, next to the creek, are tranquil and serene offering comfy furniture to sit in the sun, listen to the creek and enjoy a BBQ. The host is amazing and gets everything ready for your arrival. Our only regret is that our trip was so short. Thank you for sharing your beautiful home with us!

Wonderful home, clean, comfortable, quiet, with all needed necessities plus more!
Great home and great host! The home was immaculate with everything we needed plus more including an espresso maker. The area was quiet and very close to downtown. We loved the backyard next to the steam an a beautiful garden. The beds were very comfortable as well.

Incredible Stay!
Our family came to the area for our son’s college graduation. The historic house was so charming, clean and had everything you need for a very comfortable stay. The location was so pretty and we loved sitting in the backyard beside the creek. All the beds were so comfortable, even the pullout couch! Lots of blankets, pillows, towels! Jay, the property manager, was so friendly and a pleasure to work with! Sad to leave.

Perfect little house
Perfect space for our family with two couples and two teens. Park nearby has a little basketball court for kids to stay entertained (swings and play equipment for the littles). Patio near the creek was perfect for morning coffee as was the second story deck. Loved the yard for our dogs to relax. Kitchen well equipped so we didn’t have to eat out so many meals during our 8 day stay. Neighborhood felt super safe with lots of people walking dogs and enjoying the sunny days. Also close to Minto Brown park for runs and the dog park. Saturday market at capital was super cute. House has lots of charm and we had a really great stay!

Perfect home in Albany
I loved this home! It was exactly as described in listing and much much better than description. It is extremely well appointed. The patio by the stream is relaxing and beautiful. This home is impeccable. It’s the best VRBO I’ve ever visited!!!

Salem Rental
The house was very nice, and the patio, overlooking a stream, was outstanding! Because the central AC is not zoned, it was not very effective. Since there are no screens on the windows, we could not sleep with the windows open. The only issue with the house was that it was stuffy upstairs at night. Other than that one problem, which was helped with a fan, it was possibly the best VRBO rental (out of many) we have ever visited. The kitchen was very well equipped, and the patio alone makes it an outstanding rental.

Gorgeous refurbished 1891 home
We were in Salem for a few days to attend our son’s graduation from law school. We were even more impressed with this home once we actually saw it in person! So beautifully restored! The grounds and landscaping are equally beautiful and the neighborhood was nice as well. The kitchen was well stocked, the house was spotless, and communication with the caretaker to the property was easy with quick responses. We would definitely return to this rental if ever back in Salem!

Very special property
We loved everything about this property inside and out! We will definitely stay here again the next time we come to Salem. They had everything you could possibly need from A to Z. Before you go to the store, check all the cabinets and drawers, if you forgot it, it’s probably there. Didn’t think you would need it, they have it. We no longer have dogs, but this place is perfect for 4 legged friends with a sunroom that can be closed off and a fully fenced yard. It did take a day to find the kitchen garbage can because it was inside a cabinet where you would not expect it to be located.

Wonderful Weekend!
I have rented many homes for short stays but none have been as well equipped as this home! I call it a home, not a house, as it felt like more than just renting a house. It felt like home. The property manager was amazing. I felt like he was a friend a phone call away so I actually ended up sending him notes to tell him we arrived, how great the house was, and to let him know we had left. It is a beautiful home that is very well maintained, it is very clean, and very comfortable. I highly recommend it and would stay again for sure!
