Perfect place in Rensselaer for us!
We were in town for my father-in-law's wake and funeral -his house was full with other relatives. This place was perfect for our needs! Greg was VERY responsive and helpful. The airline sent one of our bags to GA by mistake and handed the bag off to FedEx to deliver, and they had some problem that delayed delivery until just before we were to leave - so this was a pleasant refuge from all that aggravation! (Some difficulties: The photo showed what looked like a combo washer/dryer, but this place actually has a full washer and dryer. A towel hook in the bathroom would've been nice. The neighbor decided we parked too close to "her side of the driveway" and left a note on our windshield about that.)

Nice little house
Clean, little house with open living/kitchen area. Greg was a very responsive host. We were in town just one evening to attend a wedding and this suited our needs very well.

Perfect Stay
We had to stay here for one night so we could rest in the middle of a drive to Chicago, and it was one of the easiest and most trustworthy processes and places I’ve ever had to stay. The owner was great with communication and made sure to go the extra mile so that we were comfortable. Very affordable too!

Great Stay…Again
Perfect mid-way point for an annual drive up to MN, this was my second stay and it was just as good as the first.
We absolutely loved our stay in this home. A nice and cozy stay with all new appliances. They provided all the necessities you'd need, from dishes to laundry soaps & shower products. Definitely recommend this home and will be staying again soon.Thank you so much Greg!!

Nice, cozy stay
We stayed just one night. Clean and comfortable. Exactly like the pictures.
Loved everything! It had all we needed and was clean, upscale appliances and good air conditioning system. Quiet, great bed and bedding, really cozy and all the amenities. Highly recommend- the best VRBO we have ever had. Highly recommend! Will be back if ever in the area again. Quaint little town, artsy areas and great restaurants in walking distance. Safe and quiet, just loved our stay here!

Clean as a whistle!
Cute place, nice layout, new items noted! Neighbors dog barked at ours and woke up a few folks. Next door, the roofers arrived to work on that house, but we ran up to see family, so didn’t mind the noises. I’d tell the owner to throw a small laundry basket under the work table near washer for us to store wet towels and dirty items and just add a hook or towel bar in bath for drying a used towel. Loved the condiments in drawers and fridge. One light bulb out, but I located the extras and moved them where next guest can find. Thanks for a nice stay in Rensselaer….we will be back next summer.
The home had been recently renovated. It included a new washer and dryer. We had purchased laundry detergent in order to wash before we flew back home but they even provided laundry detergent as well as an iron and ironing board. walking distance to a quaint little downtown also.

Quiet and well located. The streaming TV was a little complicated for this “senior”.
