Nicely kept home with classic character

We loved this place! The house was so clean and cozy. The beds were super comfy. The kitchen and bathrooms had everything we needed. We hosted a get-together, and all of our friends and family loved being there. There was enough room for everybody to feel comfortable, and they all wanted to move in - the house was that charming!

Valpo stay

We were in Valpo for our wedding and needed a comfortable place that had 3 bedrooms/2 bathrooms. Our stay was excellent, the house exceeded our needs, was very comfortable, well located and our hosts were flawless. I would definitely recommend and would definitely choose this home again. 5 stars

Great weekend getaway

Great place, from the time I booked it until I left was so easy and great communication. The hot tub was perfect, house was spotless everything we could ask for was there. Plenty of places to eat and do within a few minutes. If we’re ever back in Valparaiso this will be the first place to look to stay at again.
