Gorgeous Queen Anne Retreat
The home is stunning! We stayed here for a couple of nights for a wedding celebration. It's lovingly maintained in the classic victorian style with modern amenities. We especially enjoyed the bedrooms, each one a unique style with colorful taste. The basement recreation area was done in a modern style including a sauna, a theater room, & a snazzy bedroom with shag bedding. There was plenty of street parking for everyone as well. I highly recommend this house if you're looking for a space for intimate celebrations.

Place/manager need attention!
Dining room seated 8, insufficient for 16 family who had assembled for Thanksgiving. No other chairs available. Furnace kept cutting out when shower, dishwasher or laundry run, leaving us without heat. Happened six times in one day! Poor responses when reported. Property description did not match reality.

Um...yeah. Don't know how to respond to this review. This was an awful guest who apparently is penalizing us for things that were patently obvious prior to their stay. Yes, the DR table seats 8. I don't know why he expected it to seat 16. Also, there is no furnace. It's a boiler, and it didn't "cut out." Also, there's a 70 gallon hot water heater, which heats independantly of the boiler. So, it's impossible water "cut out" during a shower, dishwasher, laundry, etc. This just flat out isn't true. And I have no idea what they mean by the description doesn't match reality. We are one of the most top-rated and "Guest-Loved" homes on the other major vacation rental website. VRBO is just a different animal.

Fantastic host!!
Blake was a very good host. We originally booked the house for a bachelor party but it became unavailable a few days before our arrival. He reached out and was able to get us another house for cheaper. It made sense since a few guys dropped out a few days before. Prior to arrival he was nice enough to come and turn on the electric fireplace for us. It made the place warm and welcoming. He also left a welcome note and was the first thing I noticed when stepping into the place. Prior to checkout, we asked if we could have the house for another two hours (1pm) as our next destination isn’t open until an hour (12pm) after our original checkout time (11am). He was able to extend that for us so we could hangout a little bit longer. Overall, we would stay with Blake again. I don’t know of a host in the lodging services industry that would allow events at their houses. Would definitely seek and reach out again next time we are in the area.

Fun Family Jaunt
We had a wonderful stay. The property manager was thoughtful and responsive. The property itself was pretty amazing! They are still doing a little bit of work on the property, but it will only be finishing touches to an already wonderful place. We were a little afraid that the house might be noisy, but it was very peaceful and comfortable. Additionally, we were close to so many stores, restaurants, parks, the river, etc. which we could reach very quickly by car, but the plentiful lime rental bikes everywhere made sightseeing super convenient. I definitely would recommend this property!

Thanks, Misty! We have worked literally for YEARS to get this home restored and ready to make amazing memories. You truly won't find another home like it in this market. Come be the next guest who has a special, unique, 5-Star experience at The Lion's Greene Mansion.
