We loved the charm of this home and the location and neighborhood were perfect. There was plenty of room for 5 adults and the accommodations were very comfortable. Would definitely stay here again!

Nice Victorian in convenient historic neighborhood
This home is a very nice home that is convenient to downtown and within walking (moderate length walk) to coffee shops and some restaurants. We really enjoyed our stay and were very comfortable.

Second time we have stayed in this house. We even tried to buy it but the owner won't sell! Great location, helpful property manager. A perfect place for a smallish family attending a wedding as we were.

Great neighborhood, walk to everything
The house was beautiful, clean and located in the lovely Oakwood Historic District. The home had everything we needed and appeared to be newly renovated. We spent lots of time on the porch and even met the neighbors. Great for a family or group of friends.

Great home
The property was perfect for our group. The property manager was great and really responsive. The refrigerator was not cooling properly and she sent a repair company out. My only criticism is that the home and the wonderful porch while clean, are in need of a deep cleaning. A little more attention to the cleaning process would make this “perfect”.

Beautiful House
Historic neighborhood was lovely and we felt safe! House was beautiful and perfect for us. I contacted the manager because the fridge wasn't cold enough and Melissa was extremely helpful! We would stay there again! Perfect for families.

Too bad…the house itself is great.
The house and location are convenient and lovely. Great porch! Unfortunately, we had several issues that were ignored after making contact with Evolve. One toilet malfunctioned, and we ended up fixing it after much effort. The garbage disposal didn’t work, and the refrigerator didn’t cool properly. We had to throw away most of the food purchased. Also found 2 live cockroaches in the house. After several attempts to receive some price accommodation with no response at all, I’m finally writing this less than stellar review. First one ever.

We had a great stay in this home. The house has a lot of space and character. We especially loved sitting on the porch in the mornings. We would definitely stay again.

The house was perfect for our stay for our son’s wedding. We enough space to relax, get ready, hang suits and dresses and other prep. The neighborhood is a historic district and very walkable. The architecture is beautiful. The interior of the house is stunning, the restoration balanced historic materials and finishes with modern amenities. Highly recommend staying here.

Beautiful downtown historic area. House is on the historic rolls. Near Halloween so very decorated
Overall it was wonderful. House could definitely be maintained better than it is. It was tidy but definitely not clean. But enjoyed it. Would I stay here again. You bet. Big enough for a big family if that’s what you have.

Beautiful House in Amazing Neighborhood
We loved the house and it was everything we wanted for a quick family getaway! Everything is as pretty as the pictures, the beds were comfy, and the front porch was perfect. This is the house we want when we retire! Besides that, the neighborhood was very pretty and walkable - to dinner, downtown, and the Capital. Thanks for sharing your home. We only wish we could have stayed longer.
