Excellent experience
Delightful home in charming neighborhood. The host was great to deal with, making sure we had what we needed for our toddler. All we had to bring was ourselves!

Fabulous
I wish we came across this property 4 years ago when we dropped off our daughter at the UofC campus. Location is amazing, 7 minutes walk to the campus. The house is spacious and accommodates a large group of people. Very clean and what was really appreciated it was so well stocked - nice shampoos and lotions in all bathrooms, paper towels in the kitchen, a welcome bottle of bubbly wine from the hosts. The check-in and out process was also incredibly easy, and the hosts were very welcoming and responsive for all our requests. We booked it again for the graduation week-end and are really looking forward to coming back.

Lovely house in beautiful Hyde Park neighborhood
Our family of eight had a great time in Caryl's beautiful house in the heart of Hyde Park. The house was spacious and within easy walking distance of eateries and shopping opportunities but well situation in a quiet residential area with plenty of available parking. We really enjoyed the time and would stay again.
