Had a lovely stay at the Downhill Retreat while I waiting for power to be restored to my house after a destructive ice storm. It's a lovely, stylish studio apartment in the basement of a beautiful home in a scenic and upscale North Chatt neighborhood, and it's remarkably clean and well-decorated for a pet-friendly rental. A couple of quick things I will flag, that differ from the other recent reviews on the listing: * The reserved parking spot does not offer room to turn around and thus requires backing up a very steep driveway. I ended up parking on street for the remainder of my stay, even though off-street parking was a big draw in selecting this listing. * Other guests noted that they never heard the family above, but that was not my experience. It wasn't disruptive, and certainly it's their house and their home, but I certainly heard their movements frequently throughout the week. * The unit includes an incredibly comfortable bed and two armchairs... but no sofa for lounging.

This was our third time staying here and we love it more every time. It’s the perfect location for us. The perfect space and it feels very private. We never heard the family upstairs. We will definitely stay here again.
