Great stay in Decatur!

We had a nice stay at the Holiday House. The decorations made it extra fun! We had 3 adults and 5 small kids — it was nice to let the kids play with toys and in the yard while adults hung out. The hosts were great! We had no issues with our stay, but the hosts were quick to respond when we asked for a recommendation for St. Patrick’s Day festivities.

Feels Like Home

Very nice house in a beautiful and quiet neighborhood. Anthony was very easy to communicate with and I feel he would go out of his way to make guests feel valued. The home was comfortably furnished and great for families. Our little ones loved the toys, yard, bar, and trampoline! It felt like staying at a friends house. Comfortable, functional, and fun. Would definitely recommend!
