Great House Close to Downtown
We just stayed in Brevard for a long Father’s Day weekend. The house was exactly what we wanted. Everything was clean and well taken care of. The back yard was full of fireflies in the evening and they put on a show. Even saw a white squirrel. Very walkable to downtown with all the shops and restaurants. Jan was super with the ease of check in and out. Will definitely stay here again.

Wonderful home-Perfect location!
The house was exactly as advertised and was perfect for a 8 day stay in beautiful Brevard. The house was extremely clean and well stocked. We enjoyed the screened patio each morning and evening watching the squirrels, birds and rabbits. The location was ideal to walking to dinner (one block off Main). The neighborhood was clean and quiet. We have stayed in several VRBOs in Brevard over the years and this is our favorite. Jan was a wonderful host and very attentive. It was like talking with an old friend. We’re looking forward to coming back!

Great spot, close to town
It was a great place. Everything was clean, and up to date. It had everything I needed in the kitchen to cook, and a nice big back yard, bigger than the photos suggest. I saw one of Brevard's famous white squirrels there! The one small hiccup we had was handled quickly and professionally by the owner. The one puzzling thing, is that this was advertised as a 3 bedroom, but the third bedroom was locked when we arrived. A sign said that it was available for an additional charge. We only needed one bedroom, so it was no problem, but if you go here with a larger group, ask if the third bedroom will be locked or not. We were never told ahead of time that the third bedroom would be locked, so I felt like this was a bait and switch. Also, although there were two full bathrooms, they were both inside the door of two different bedrooms. In other words, two bedrooms were suites with their own bathrooms, but there were no other bathrooms in the house. It wasn't a problem for me, but it would be weird if we had a larger group, and someone was using that third bedroom.

Great Location for Visiting Downtown!
I stayed at Jan's house since it was walkable to downtown Brevard. That was important to me as I was a vendor at the White Squirrel Festival. The house was also across from a wooded area where I spotted my first and only white squirrel! The house is very spacious which we enjoyed. No problems with anything at all. We recommend staying here!

So close to town
Jan was so nice and communicated with us well! She filled up the bird feeder prior to our stay and we were able to see 2 white squirrels!! It was little touches like this that made our trip perfect! There was plenty of room for our family of 3. We were able to walk into town which was awesome to not have to fight looking for parking! Would definitely stay here again! Also, Jan was accommodating to our schedule and allowed us to check in about 3 hours early! It was such a treat!

Downtown Brevard
My family just had a wonderful stay in this house. The house had everything we needed and the location is excellent. We had some rainy days which made me really appreciate having a comfortable, cozy house that was close to everything when the rain stopped. I would definitely stay here again.
