Peter Ray House
This is an amazing property. The home is beautiful and very period appropriate. It felt like home. The front porch was very relaxing. We loved sitting outside and relaxing. This home was immaculate on the inside, with plenty of room for the 3 of us. I can not say enough about this home. We will definitely be back to visit.

Wonderful weekend! We were there to watch a college golf conference tournament. There were four adults and we didn't want to pay the price of two hotel rooms. Booking this VRBO home was just the solution. Everything about it was perfect. 5 star stay for sure. We will be back if given the opportunity.

Charming little getaway!
This house was so beautifully restored and lovingly decorated to make the history come alive! It was white glove clean on top of that. We really loved the cozy upstairs as a place to hang out and the huge covered front porch was just gorgeous for watching storms. The town is quiet and charming. It was just right for us!

Short stay with another couple
Great place to stay. Very comfortable surroundings and as described. If it hadnt had been for the malfunctioning smoke detectors, it would have been perfect. Glad they didnt go off in the middle of the night, and glad you could get it fixed while we were out during the day.
