This is the second time I've stayed at this location with another person -- once upstairs and this time downstairs. Both units have everything you need for a lovely stay and the location is perfect! Parking right in front which is a huge plus. It's quiet. The kitchen has everything you need. Plenty of towels that are high quality. The place is sunny and filled with windows! The layout is perfect and plenty of space. And, April is beyond amazing and responsive. I highly recommend staying here if you're in the area.

The Harvey House was decorated beautifully. We loved our stay. I will stay there again next time I come to visit family in the area. I highly recommend this home.

We had a lovely stay at this comfortable, well-appointed home. After a very long drive, we were able to get into the home easily and found snacks and coffee waiting for us. The neighborhood is lovely, and we took several long walks and could hear the local high school football game from the deck... so quaint! There are a lot of little "extras" that make this place feel like home-away-from-home... like dog treats, a beautiful, fenced yard, patio seating, good, thick towels, a well-appointed kitchen, and excellent restaurants within walking distance (shout out to Herm's Palace! -- Delicious!). I don't know if the fat, happy squirrels are on staff or just volunteers, but they were a lot of fun to hang out with!
