Great Place

We were in Boston for the Marathon and this property provided easy access to the trains and downtown. It was clean, comfortable and well-equipped. Susan was very prompt and responsive to any questions and requests we had. Will be on our list the next time we are in Boston.

West Roxbury

Overall, the property was roomy with space to spread out. One bedroom required walking through another which could be awkward but was fine with friends. Patio area was not ready to be used. Lots of debris and no broom to clean off seats. Near to places but got expensive going into town.

Great spot for family vacation

Adorable house in a great neighborhood. We enjoyed the house, the location was excellent and allowed us to visit all of the New England states during our vacation. Downtown West Roxbury was about a 1/2 mile away and was a cute town with great restaurant options and a nearby grocery store and Starbucks. We enjoyed the neighborhood- nice and quiet, out of the bustle of downtown Boston, and a great area for evening walks. We had a family of 4 including two older teenagers and really enjoyed this location.

Home Away from Home

This property was beautiful and well kept. It was in a lovely old neighborhood and it was a great place to relax and wind down after a long day of sight seeing in Boston. Susan was quick to respond to our questions and needs. The price was reasonable for the area, the beds were comfortable and I loved the sunroom. 5 stars!

Wonderful graduation weekend.

My family and I had a great spring weekend in Boston celebrating my sons graduation. Property was just as described, in a quiet neighborhood with plenty of parking and easy access back out to the highway. The house was spacious and well equipped and our host Susan was more than accommodating with my late paperwork submission. We would definitely stay again.

Winter holiday reunion in comfy well-appointed home

Our grown kids and friends are in Boston, this well stocked, immaculate home easily sleeps 6 and made a great base for late Dec get-together. Access and good parking front and rear made this corner lot excellent, backyard looks well suited to summer as well. The town center with great shopping and restaurants is very close-by, easy reach to city and suburbs. Susan was a helpful, responsive host. We hope to be back soon

First Boston visit

The house is as shown in pics. It was clean & well equipped. I recommend a car as transit stop is not convenient. Susan was a great host, even when we locked ourselves out, she came over and was very gracious about getting us in. It was my fault. The 4 of us were comfortable for the entire stay. We all agreed we would recommend staying here

BC Graduation

This house was really lovely and well appointed. Great location with ample parking. The owner was responsive and easy to communicate with. The only thing to be aware of is that the layout of the upstairs bedrooms requires the occupants of the largest bedroom to walk through another bedroom to get to the bathroom or to go downstairs. This was not a big issue for us but thought it worth mentioning. I would definitely go back to this house.

Simply beautiful!

This home is the quintessential Boston home. It's old and historic but feels fresh and modern. The host, Susan, was a joy to work with. It was my first time to Boston, and although it was a bit farther from the city life than one might want it was a quick walk to the commuter train then a quick transfer to the orange line into the heart of the city. The home is fresh and immaculate with a variety of coffee, teas and espressos at the waiting. Be wary of the quiet hours. We got back from the Sox game and we're amped up because they won, when we got home the next night we came home to the patio being soaked by the neighbors. Welp, whatcha gonna do. Enjoy this property.

This was a wonderful place to call home for all our Boston area exploring. Great accommodations and an attentive host. Sitting out on the back patio was a favorite way to wind down. This house is nestled in a sweet neighborhood near lots of amenities.

Great stay

Our family of 4adults and two children had a great stay at Susan’s house. It was super clean and very comfortable for our family. The location is great for easy access into Boston and Centre Street only a mile away, had nice restaurants, bakeries and coffee shops. We loved the PAC Man game too would definitely stay again if we were in the area.

Perfect for Families

This house was perfect for our family since we need three bedrooms. The neighborhood was quaint and very quiet. We used the T station to travel in and out of Boston. Susan is a great host and replies to messages promptly! Would highly recommend.

Great house and location for a bitter sweet experience.

Six of us came across the country for a funeral in Boston. This was an excellent house. It is in a great location being just a few minutes drive from the T. Family was able to go out to the burbs for the funeral, but still close enough for the younger kids to see Boston during their downtime. There isn’t central air, but being in Boston that can be expected. The third bedroom is non conforming and you have to walk through it to get to the primary bedroom. Also, the online rules are a little different than the rules the home owner provides. But overall, it made the bitter sweet experience coming to Boston more enjoyable.

Nice stay away from home

Nice property with all amenities, clean and in a quiet neighbourhood. The trees were in bloom, so the stay was extra enjoyable. One small plumbing issue was resolved promptly the day we reported it.

Communicative host, quiet, work & relax

On the location was beautiful and the host was responsive. Everything was clean and seemed to be maintained to a family host standard. We had three adults and two in elementary age children. I especially enjoyed the office space because I did have to work well on the trip and the ability to close the door and to have the connectable monitor was great!!! I would love to stay here again!

Home away from home.

We were in town for the New Balance Indoor Track Nationals. Our two athletes were able to relax and eat well which gave them a great start for competition. Susan was an amazing host. She provide help when needed, recommendations for pizza and driving directions. The only thing that would be helpful was to know that the king bedroom can only be accessed through another bedroom which was tricky for us staying with non family members.Other than that everything else wes just right.

We truly enjoyed our stay. The house is adorable and located in a beautiful suburban neighbourhoid. It was an excellent home base from which to explore Boston. The host is extremely accommodating and is easily contacted.We would 100% recommend this place as long as you have your own car to get around the city.

Great Stay

I have a son who attends Babson College. He turned 21 on 11/19 and he was not coming home for Thanksgiving. So we took the double celebration to him. We did not want to stay in a hotel and be on top of each other for 5 days and four nights, so we thought we would stay at a VRBO Residence. The stay was fantastic, everything we needed was in place, everyone had their own space. I am now a believer. The space was exactly what we needed and wanted. Excellent Stay!

Nice neighborhood

The house was nice, in good condition, and in a nice neighborhood. The listing does advertise three bedrooms which is accurate however, in order to access the king bedroom you must walk through another bedroom. There aren’t three private rooms.
