Secluded & Peaceful City Escape

Tucked away in the woods of Mt. Washington, you'll find this newly renovated home that gives you the feeling that you're in a cabin in the woods while only being minutes to downtown! This home features two bedrooms and two full bathrooms. Have a fun game night in the finished basement that boasts a bar and ping pong table! Cold night? Cuddle up on the couch and build a fire in the wood burner, or relax and take a candle-lit bath in the large free-standing tub!

Secluded but less comfortable than expected
The house is definitely secluded: at the end of a private drive, next to the forest. However it is also above a major highway and tunnel, so was louder at night than expected. For the price, we were expecting the house to be in better condition, and the beds to be more comfortable. However, overall it was a nice stay. The wood burning stove was great for the winter, and it was cool to see deer in the front yard, while being so close to the city! While secluded, the house was also no more than 15 minutes from any place we wanted to go, so quite convenient.

Great experience!
Derrick was a great host and the property was perfect! He communicated extremely well and it’s obvious he puts time and effort into all the small details in the house. The place was clean, secluded, and the instructions to get there were very helpful. I will definitely put this property at the top of my list for my next stay!

Secluded and peaceful for sure
The house was tucked away in the woods and has been completely redone on the inside. Everything was clean and comfortable. It is really central for downtown events. The owner was very responsive. A great stay all in all!

The host, Derrick, was very easy to work with. Each time i had a question, he responded promptly. The house was very clean, interesting and very comfortable. It was lovely to sit outside in the early evening. It was also very quiet. Wifi and tv worked very well.
