The 1888 house was perfect for our quiet weekend getaway with our dog. The fenced in backyard is amazing, and the house is adorable. Would absolutely stay here again!
Cute little place that was close to wineries and St. Joseph. Beds were very comfortable and the house was stocked well. Check in and out process was easy.
We enjoyed the 1888 House very much! It was very clean, and it was beautifully decorated! The location worked perfectly for our needs to visit Silver Beach. We were especially grateful to have our tiny pup with us!
We enjoyed our stay at the 1888 house while visiting for the weekend. The beds were comfortable though I did wish some of the seating options were more aware of comfort rather than just looks, but we made it work with the couch! We would totally stay here again because it was by far the most affordable and cute little spot in the area. The host was super responsive and communicated quickly when needed.
Had everything we needed, close to everything. Decor theme was Super cute. The pup pad was such a plus! We always get sad when we take a trip and have to leave him at home. The place has good bones and just needs some fine tuning around the edges but so much potential!
Great two bedroom house nearby downtown St Joesph. The only complaints were that there was little to no handsoap, very little paper towels, and no hooks to hang up shower towels. Overall not a bad house, great host.
