Upstairs is a separate unit
Overall this was a good place to stay for a short trip into Mt Airy. Clean, plenty of room for 3 of us. Easy walk to the historic downtown area. However, the listing does not make it obvious that you only have the 1st floor and the second story is a separate rental. While mostly redone, it is still an old house so you hear EVERYTHING from up above.

Wonderful stay in Mount Airy!
We had a wonderful stay at this lovely old home in Mount Airy, within walking distance to town with a delightful wraparound porch, in a very quiet neighborhood. We had the entire downstairs including a vintage record player! It does look like someone lives there when not being rented (personal items in the bathroom, kitchen cabinets full of typical cooking/baking items, not like a usual VRBO property), but fairly easy to work around. We absolutely loved submersing ourselves in "Mayberry" and would consider this home if we ever return.

Celebrating our Fiftieth Wedding Anniversary
This is the third time we have stayed at this property and we made sure we were able to have it to celebrate our fiftieth wedding anniversary together. It’s a great house located on a quiet street in a wonderful neighborhood just steps from the Main Street of shops like Floyd’s Barber Shop ( where I make sure to have my haircut) and the Snappy Lunch and steps away from the Mayberry Jail and Courthouse and Wally’s Filling Station! It’s like going back in time to the sixties. All of the townspeople are so nice. We will be back again.

The house is clean, very nice. Our only complaint is a couple of the windows need window shades for privacy at night.

The home was clean, comfortable and what we needed for a one night stay. There was one small issue (not with the home) however, the host took care of it immediately. I would recommend if you are wanting to see the town of Mt. Airy.

Could be great
Charming old house in a nice ish neighborhood but the home needs a ton of TLC - flaking paint, doors off plumb, lots of short cuts to mask short comings. It could be super lovely but right now it’s just a little depressing

Upstairs or downstairs. Great place.
Rented the entire house with some friends. This place is great! Lots of room. Great location. Looking forward to visiting this home again. Upstairs is more modern and a bit nicer than downstairs but downstairs has best access to the wrap around porch. If you’re going to be in town this is a great place to stay.

Great comfy place to stay close to town
Property was very roomy and clean and had an old fashioned charm that I love. The bed was super comfortable and I loved the record player and old vinyl records we played. The back yard was roomy for outdoor gatherings.
