October 2026

My son got married at Eolia Mansion at Harkness State Park and we rented Katie’s house for our 4 other children and there SOs as well as my husband’s sisters and their families and my mother and father in law and my brother and his two kids. Everyone had a bed! The two family rooms were a nice touch. 4 full sized bathrooms really helped with everyone getting ready for the welcome dinner and the wedding. The location was perfect for our venue and welcome dinner! The kitchen was well stocked. Loved the area and would definitely stay there again with a large group!

Apart from being massive and gorgeous, this stay was a safe haven for us because of Katie’s kindness and flexibility. Unfortunately we were in town to be close to a hospital where our family member suffered a major crisis. The event progressed quickly and unexpectedly, and the whole time Katie was so kind to let us check out a little later / take our time getting out based on the situation. She was even willing to help us try to find a last minute dog sitter (or do it herself!) so that our family could leave them for a few hours to say goodbye to our loved one. She was a life saver and this Airbnb was our home base during a crisis. While we wish we could have enjoyed it in a different circumstance, I can easily say that this listing and host is highly recommended.

This was a five-star experience in every sense. The property was exactly as described, check-in was smooth. The house is huge with plenty of space for our family of 14. We really enjoyed our stay, the home was well prepared, and the entire experience felt professional and stress-free. I would recommend for large group.
