Property was clean and exactly as described. You get a lot of space at a good price. Best part about this property is how quickly you can get into Boston. It is located a short walk from the T and is very convenient.
This place is nice and clean. The communication is excellent and this place is very family friendly. It provides everything you need and makes your stay very convenient and comfortable.
Small cozy duplex. We were staying for a short weekend to visit friends that live near Boston. Everything we needed to prepare meals were there, from pots and pans to an air fryer. It was just what we needed. Would stay again.
Easy check in/check out, the owner communicated well, property is nicely maintained. We had a group of 8 and had plenty of room. It felt like a safe and family friendly neighborhood. Took us about 25 minutes to get into Boston with traffic.
Had such a great time last weekend. Host is accommodating and quick to respond with questions and concerns. The house is in a great neighborhood near a playground which my daughter enjoyed. Fully stocked kitchen which saved us so much money instead of going out to eat.
Very clean and nice, we were here for the super hot muggy days and the house was perfectly cool and thankful for theyre AC 😅. Communication was fantastic. We had an unexpected hospital visit while here and they were very helpful. We would most definitely would recommend staying here. The town was super nice and it was also really nice to be able to stay outside the city away from choas.
We loved staying here, so convenient to Boston sites and cape cod, MBTA right down the street. May be small but we had 5 adults, 3 yr old and 1 year old, worked great! A beautiful, safe neighborhood, with true New England charm😀. The porch, patio and yard with kid’s equipment was a real bonus! Yes the stairs are narrow and steep, but so are most homes in New England! The owner truly cares, and is delightful! We were there for a week and it was perfect!
Owner was responsive and helpful. Easy check-in process. Property was clean and conveniently located close to our house for family to stay for our daughter’s wedding. Only drawback was that steps to 2nd Fl bedrooms were steep for my in-laws. Would highly recommend.
This was a great stay for our family of 6 to spread out and access Boston easily, from the super safe and cozy town of Milton! Lots to do and see. Laundry facilities were great to have to clean up the sports equipment too!
Fabulous rental with so many possibilities! Duplex wasn’t well stocked, HOWEVER, the location, accessibility, and local offerings also tv’s with streaming capabilities is perfect! Thank you!!
Seven of us for a family reunion. Great location. Easy to zip up to Fenway Park to see a good game, and also down to the beach. Really good food options. Everything about the house was easy. Having great parking was key. Best checkout I’ve ever had on all of my VRBO stays. I’d definitely stay again.

Very comfy beds!
great home from home, we were a group of 7 and had loads of space. Very clean and well presented, amazing nights sleep only issue is something we were already aware of is that there is only 1 bathroom but we made it work.
The owner was awesome, very responsive and accommodating. The house was cozy but very clean, inviting and comfortable. It was also extremely helpful that it was pet friendly so we could bring our pups. I recommend!
Beautiful home and extremely clean. The house is decorated beautifully, has very comfortable spaces and even a cute porch to sit and enjoy the outdoors. The parking in the back is very convenient. My family and I were very pleased.
