Nice house and great location
We were visiting a variety of places within the general area (Concord, Boston, Plymouth, Salem) and this house was a perfect place for our family. During our downtime, our kids had a great time playing football in the big backyard. The house was a good size for our family of 5 and had everything we needed and more.

Our September stay
Two grandparents, two parents, and an 11-month boy, Riley, were guests of Janel for a week. We grandparents had Riley to care for each day while Mom competed in a national golf tournament and Dad caddied for Mom. Janel’s property was the absolute ideal location and set up and design. Riley and I each day explored Lexington Green, Minuteman National Park, all of it, and Concord and The North Bridge; and Walden Pond. We even drove down to Harvard Square! The rooms were spotless and for us with an active crawling child the attention to cleanliness was gratifying to say the least. Each night the dinner table with the highchair was the venue for a cheerful dinner with all of us together. And, oh, yes, the backyard and patio. All slept well. Lights were out early and the neighborhood was peaceful as can be. We were awakened each morning to the sound of Reveille at 6:30am sharp. It was a great feature, one of too many to list, of our fabulous stay.

Absolutely wonderful
The house is in a lovely quiet area and is immaculately clean. It was the perfect place for us to stay. With 3 boys with me it was so helpful to have separate public and private spaces so that they could get away from each other… and leave me in peace! It was perfect.

Home in Bedford, Mass.
My family and I were very impressed with this Bedford home! It was spacious, clean and in an excellent location to all the sights we wanted to see. We especially enjoyed the patio and the large neatly manicured yard. We played croquet and my granddaughter got to run to her heart's content. My only negative comment would be that I did not receive the welcome packet at the beginning of our stay; however, that could have been computer error and no fault of the host. When I contacted her, she responded with my answers straight away! I highly recommend this property!

Perfect location for graduation
We find that renting a house is more economical and comfortable than staying at hotels, and this property did not disappoint. We can for a college graduation, and were able to have a small gathering of friends and family after the graduation. Plenty of space in the house and out in the spacious yard for people to spread out and socialize. Lovely, quiet, comfortable, close to Boston and Waltham.

Returned for a second stay!
My husband, son, daughter-in-law, and I stayed here over Boston Marathon weekend. We had rented this lovely home for a Christmas visit pre-Covid and loved it so much that we booked it again when my son learned he'd be running the iconic race. The home is well-stocked, well-furnished, and you simply can't beat the location. Plus, the owner is exceptionally thoughtful and responsive. We'll be back again!

Amazing Home for Families Near Boston
Traveling for the first time with two toddlers I was nervous about where to stay. Janel's property blew us away with the variety of tools and toys for kiddos, as well as the kid's room and spacious yard for lots of safe play! The home decor is modern and welcoming. We had family over for dinner and they were joking that they would just trade houses with us and they would stay there ; ) Easy ~30 min drive into Boston center, close to great grocery stores and shopping, as well as historical sites. I will be recommending this home to anyone visiting the area and hope to stay again ourselves in the future! Thank you Janel!

A Wonderful Home
Such a wonderful home to have chosen for our stay. So warm and welcoming. A lovely backyard for playing with the kids or just relaxing and enjoying the garden. The neighborhood was great, and the property location was perfect and centralized to everything we wanted to see. For 4 of the days, we had 4 adults and two children there. The children, (my grandchildren) are both under 4. The rental offered many amenities for children (bunk beds, cribs, high chairs, safety gates) which was appreciated and made their stay all the more enjoyable. Everything we needed to be comfortable was provided. I was reminded how much I liked Aveda shampoo, which was provided as well. The owner was attentive and responsive, and made sure we were enjoying our stay. I knew if needed, I could reach out with any question I might have. She was great. We thoroughly enjoyed staying here and definitely recommend to anyone wanting to stay somewhere that feels comfortable, and like you are home (but still on vacation) the minute you arrive. Just the best!

Wonderful property for a stay in the Boston area
Our family of four thoroughly enjoyed our stay in this newly renovated house in Bedford. The house was extremely clean and we felt immediately comfortable. The neighborhood feels very safe but is still close enough to major roads, offering a very convenient location. The patio and backyard were lovely and the property manager provided enough amenities (toilet paper, soap, shampoo) that we could settle in without running to the store immediately. A solid 5 stars and would definitely stay again!
