Guestbook for Charming Home Near New York
Had an absolutely brilliant stay at this spacious and comfortable home! Every convenience was available both inside and outside the home - it really lived up to everything on our wishlist for a really great first holiday in the States. The house is very near to shops (including a Cafe bar located on Prospect Street - left at traffic lights that served breakfast when we didn't feel up to making it!) - there were also restaurants, hairdressers etc, all within a 5 minute walk and with a walk of approx 15 mins the village of Maplewood with local train station direct to NYC and a village pub that serves the best Guinness outside of Ireland! The holiday was undoubtedly made easy from the start as the owner has put together a really useful Maplewood Guide book with plenty of useful information that really helped us plan routes etc. The trip to/from Newark airport was really easy - just as easy to travel by taxi to/from airport and then use local trains into NYC (Penn Station takes you right to a very central place next to Madison Square Gardens and on the next corner the Empire State building is in sight). Will definitely recommend this holiday home and plan to return again hopefully in the near future! -Della and Family (UK )
What a fantastic house,when you book on the internet you can never be sure what the property will be like,a great big lens can make even the smallest bedroom look cavernous, but this house was just as described, huge!! The area of Maplewood was lovely with the park and the walks. We stayed from 1st-10th August and had a really lovely time. -Lynn Jackson (Brighton, England )
Our family stayed here on June 24th through June 28th. This house was an absolute doll house! We had 8 eight people and had plenty of room for everyone. Owner Nicole was great to talk with and helped us far more than what she had too (we left some things and she sent them to us). Not knowing what to expect I was hoping the house I booked would be at least ok. When we got to the house I knew I did good. But when we went inside the the house it felt good when my family kept saying "Mike you did good on this one" The house was great but what made the house wonderful was the little touches Nicole had made. Like the basket of goodies with a little note welcoming our stay. a folder she had for us with neighborhood restaurants (with menus), pharmacies, local stores, emergency numbers, a train schedule, etc. She even left craft paper and crayons for the kids. The house was great, the neighborhood was very pleasant and peaceful. I would definitely stay here again. Do not know if you (Nicole) have been doing this long but you do know what you are doing. Keep up the good work. Excellent house, super nice person. I give it a 10 out of 10. Feel free to contact me if you want to know anything about our stay. -Mike Gadsden (Alabama, USA )
