Wonderful place!
My family and friends greatly enjoyed our stay at the Basset House. Michael was extremely helpful in accommodating our needs, we had food, milk, beverages, fruits and pastry waiting for us on our check-in day. This place is very clean, comfortable, well equipped and organized and everyone feels like home there. We had a wonderful time and will hold beautiful memories from The Bassett House!

Simply amazing!!
Simply amazing!! We would like to return on the first opportunity. It has been our VRBO experience ever. Everything was as expected or better. Ample spaces for our group of 9, including kitchen, living room, tv room. Michael was very attentive with all of our arrival needs, including basic groceries, fine toiletries, table set-up, etc. Totally recommend staying in this home.

Nicest rental ever
Celebrated a long awaited family reunion at Bassett House. If we could give more than 5 stars we would. The home, stunning decor, spaciousness, and Michael were unmatched. It was thoughtfully well stocked. From the moment we entered it felt like coming home.
