K12 Clay house
It was perfect for the board members to stay together, away from the conference center, room to relax and solve the little problems that arise, away from the exhibition hall. Enough seating space for everyone involved for dinners and relaxation. Great for large group discussions and small group conversations.

Newly Redecorated & Clean Home - Not the Best neighborhood
Clean & neat home - Needs basic maintenance & Safety issues addressed. Downstairs bathroom window on lower level lock was Broken & could be opened & entered from outside Felt very unsaf for an already sketcy neighborhood! Cigarette burns on one couch & & ripped Cushion on another. 3rd king room at end of hallway doorknob is broken. Rotted wood just chipping away from upstairs bathroom & missing Shower Towel. 3 Full Bathrooms, but none of which are onsuite to any of the bedrooms - One is off of the kitchen - One is off of Lower level Den & only One on the second floor where all 5 Bedrooms are located.

As Described
The location, layout, and functionality of the home were, as described, great. The first floor was well appointed with games, seating areas, and a kitchen stocked with all necessary supplies. Is a rental unit, this house needs a bit of tlc to address nicks and scratches in several walls, beds that squeak, and some sofas that need mending.

Comfy, historical home
We had a very good time while staying at the house. It was our base of operations as we went to Washington DC, Williamsburg, the Aquarium and other places in the Richmond area itself. Perly’s Delicatessen was a favorite place for lunch. The house is roomy with plenty of beda - and ALL the beds are so comfy! You can see the care and love that has gone into modernizing the house, while keeping the history with natural woodwork and floors, and high ceilings. We felt very welcomed by the vibes of the house, and even the mosquitoes were hospitable - several of them had us for dinner! An entirely lovely stay. We would most definitely return.

CONVENIENT, COMFORTABLE, AND ROOMY
The property was as advertised and my interactions with the property owner were problem free. The property is conveniently located to a number of good restaurants and tourists sites in Richmond. There was pleanty of room for the five of us plus our family dog. The fenced in backyard was a major pluse considering that we did have a dog with us. The five bedrooms and three full bathrooms provided adequate space and the little downstairs room was a perfect hangout room for out teenage grandson. All-in-all it was a great week and we thoroughly enjoyed ourselves.

Awesome family gathering for my son’s wedding
We had plenty of room for sleeping and gathering with family members. Loved the front porch for morning coffee. There was some trash strewn in the backyard when we arrived. Not super inviting, but we cleaned most of it up so we didn’t have to look at it. Everything else was fantastic for our magical wedding weekend.

Convenient Richmond Getaway
This house was nicely located 5 minutes from downtown Richmond. Everything in the house came and worked as advertised. There were three full bathrooms, which was very nice when accommodating two families and the water pressure was excellent. Lots of games and entertainment were provided both indoors and outdoors in the yard. The priority is also located within 2 min walking distance to a playground for kids. The bunk bed wasn't used as the top bunk didn't feel secure and the beds were quite soft (but depends on personal preference). Fortunately, there were enough rooms and extra beds. The house is older so there is a lot of creaking in the steps and floor but despite this it is structurally sound and has a cool and unique layout. Also, the house is in a good location but there are a lot of trains that run through the area both day and night so it is quite loud and can disrupt sleep if you are a light sleeper. The hosts were communicative but we didn't need to contact them as everything ran smoothly. Overall, the stay was pleasant and a nice respite from the busy activities we had planned during our stay. Would recommend!

Beautiful home close to city center
We stayed here for an anniversary get away. It’s a large house so would work very well for a crowd but definitely not too much for just a single family or couples vacation. The house was extremely comfortable and had everything we could need. The owners even left a card and some wine since we were celebrating. Would definitely recommend if you are coming to the Richmond area and want a spacious and comfortable place to call home base.

We enjoyed our stay! Living room spaces are comfortable and spacious for large groups. We had 10 adults in our group. Kitchen is well equipped with modern appliances and nice extras. Be aware there are 5 bedrooms upstairs but only 1 bathroom. The other 2 bathrooms are downstairs. You also may want to bring extra bath towels as there aren’t a lot provided.

Great house for large groups
Our stay was great and we really enjoyed the house. We had 10 adults and kids and it had plenty of space (we weren’t expecting 3 full bathrooms), fun indoor and outdoor game choices, plenty of media choices on the TVs, and the labels on all the light switches were very helpful. I’d definitely stay there again!
